I am recycling old R markdown in Quarto. I need to render as pdf to use as class notes. The old code includes references that work.
If I now toggle the RStudio viewer from "Source" to "Visual" and render the pdf, the references fail to appear. If I toggle back I see that [@definetti] has been turned into [\@definetti]. is this a bug? In practice, for my use case, this means I can only work in "Source" or "Visual" but not both, which is not ideal. Alternatives are clunky (e.g. search replace \@ with @ before the final rendering, which is never really final for a living document like class materials).
