Description Björn Michaelsen 2011-08-02 02:05:11 UTC
==== General formula editor improvements ====

These are not necessarily tied to the new visual editor work.

* Free choice of color

: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5156

* Nice scaling integral sign and brackets

: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=45511

: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=35783

: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=66848

* Easier way to add new symbols

: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=50100

* Alignment to equal sign in stacks and matrices

: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5998

* Inheritance of font size from environment or style

: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5266

: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=12855

: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=26446

* Indicate pairs of brackets

: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=38992

: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=93403

This really needs to be split up in separate issues (on bugs.freedesktop.org).

Please mark Reports related to problems listed int the comments before iwth "Blocks Bug 39750" to avoid DUP reports!
Comment 4 Rainer Bielefeld Retired 2012-04-10 03:03:43 UTC
EasyHack tags unification:  only allowed in Whiteboard to make queries more easy and reliable
Comment 5 Regina Henschel 2012-09-02 18:01:29 UTC
I don't know why it was assigned to me.
Comment 6 Joel Madero 2014-02-27 22:55:25 UTC
In order to limit the confusion between ProposedEasyHack and EasyHack and to make queries much easier we are changing ProposedEasyHack to NeedsDevEval.

Thank you and apologies for the noise

Comment 8 V Stuart Foote 2016-10-29 17:25:08 UTC
Adjusting this to be the META for Formula Editor. Have to go through the laundry list of OOo era issues both to locate the new URLs but also seems like some have been written up against LibreOffice.

bug 32419 - When inserted on Writer, get "Base size" for formulas from underlining paragraph
bug 99169 - Integrate Formula Editor with sidebar
bug 96543 - Add side panel to Math
bug 96208 - Extend formula editor to use TeX annotation at least on import
bug 99792 - Formula objects display eight handles but none of them can be used for anything
bug 101174 - Enable means to change Formula Editor default font from OpenSymbol via Expert Configuration
bug 101411 - Convert Microsoft Equation Editor formatted equation into LibreOffice Math format
bug 102007 & bug 102008 - Inconsistent node composition
bug 103461 - Elements pane/dock/window/sidebar in Math
Comment 9 Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2016-10-29 17:52:45 UTC
@Stuart: Would be good to define a particular purpose of this meta bug, as it doesnt seem that different to the Formula Editor component.
Comment 10 V Stuart Foote 2016-10-29 19:07:32 UTC
bug 47414 - Import of MathML into OpenOffice / LibreOffice
bug 68507 - Elements pane group example equations under different headings
bug 68871 - Remove the old Elements panel (View → Elements) from Math
bug 69482 - shorten some expressions (better input tsyntax)
bug 71052 - a find implementation for Math
bug 78187 - Custom markup (shortcuts) inside editor (better input syntax & autocorrect)
bug 78378 - selecting formula for editing without mouse
bug 81428 - Import MathML format generated by MathJax
bug 87679 - Visual editor mode needs to be finished with full buffering to eliminate annoying blinking
bug 88744 - Experimental Visual formula editor does not link to system clipboard
bug 89865 - correct need for excessive bracket controls in rendering fractions
