\left( inserts incorrect paired brace

[jojo2357]

In a math environment, doing \left( should, imo, automatically insert \right) rather than )

IE \left<carret> -> type ( -> \left(<caret>)
expected \left<carret> -> type ( -> \left(<caret>\right)

I agree but on the condition that we can ensure the \right) is only inserted if the ) is inserted, so if there is no matching ) already present, for example \left<caret> (...) \right)

That did not fix my issue.

My test, characterized by:

$\left<caret> $

typing (

expected:

$\left(<caret>\right) $

actual:

$\left(<caret>) $

the unit test described above can be characterized below:

fun testCorrectPairedBrace() {
    myFixture.configureByText(LatexFileType, """$\left<caret>$""")
    myFixture.type('(')
    myFixture.checkResult("""$\left(<caret>\right)$""")
}

Is not fixed by c20606a. #3562 did fix a fun bug, but not this issue.

Please reopen/
