    KKTeX submitted an update to the

    KKsymbols

    package.

    Version: 2.1.4 2026-04-17

    Summary description: LaTeX commands for enclosing characters in circles, squares, diamonds, or brackets

    Announcement text: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In this update, the following change was done: When the arguments provided by this package contain only one-digit-number, the internal resize algorithm is nullified.

    By this, I fixed the layout issue where single-digit numbers stretched horizontally.

    Thanks for the upload.

    KKsymbols

    package.

    Summary description: LaTeX commands for enclosing characters in circles, squares, diamonds, or brackets

    Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    KKsymbols 2.2.1: enclosures now auto-align their content to the
    current font's x-height by default, so short glyphs such as the
    lowercase roman numerals of \Rrnum line up uniformly without
    manual \vphantom (new \kksref / \kksrefoff / \kksrefauto);
    also fixes an infinite hang when a font-size command is used
    inside an argument. Backward compatible.
