Latex or HTML support for Parallel Coordinates

Hey guys,
I have a problem with the offline parallel coordinate plot in the python environment. I have the problem, that I cannot use Latex or even HTML notation for my axis titles. Currently I am working with unicode representation for e.g. the greek beta, but I need to show nice indices as well… It seems, that MahthJax is only loaded in the wrapper of the plot, so that I can use LaTex commands for the titles. But it does not work for inside the plot for the axis titles. For the colorbar title I can use the HTML … Syntax as well as LaTex commands… But the LaTex symbols are turned.
Unfortunately, I cannot publish my original code and data, but I tried to rebuild the problem with an example. So, regarding the github issue thread #515 (see here), I tried to implement the workaround from ianhbell. But as already mentioned, it does not work for the parallel coordinates plot :frowning:

Can anybody help me or give me a hint? I’m a total newbie to javascript and d3.js… Thank you!
