Description A. Syukri Abdollah 2014-07-13 08:32:56 UTC
In LibreOffice Impress, inserted formula doesn't resize to inputted formula correctly until you exit editing the formula.

Steps to reproduce:
(1) Create a new presentation
(2) Insert a formula equation object (from menu: Insert>Object>Formula)
(3) You will enter LibreOffice Math editor within Impress. Notice the formula box size.
(4) Ensure that "View>AutoUpdate Display" is checked.
(5) Input a large enough equation e.g. 
{ d bold M  } over {dt } = - {%gamma over { 1 + %gamma^2 %eta^2 M_s^2 }} ( bold M times {bold H}_"eff" - %gamma %eta bold M times bold M times {bold H}_"eff" )
(6) Notice that the box size doesn't change, and because the formula overflows, scrollbars appear on the box.
(7) Exit editing (press escape or click anywhere outside the formula box on the slide).
(8) Notice that the box finally resizes to fit the formula correctly.

On the other hand, formulas inserted in LibreOffice Writer seem to behave properly i.e. they resize properly when updated.

This bug was reproduced on Ubuntu 14.04, using official repository.

It's already that time of the year?

Reproducible on:
LibreOffice Impress
バージョン: 5.2.4.2 (x64)
Build ID: 3d5603e1122f0f102b62521720ab13a38a4e0eb0
CPU Threads: 4; OS Version: Windows 6.19; UI Render: default; 
ロケール: ja-JP (ja_JP); Calc: group

As before, it works correctly on LibreOffice Writer.

I had some free time to check out whether the bug appeared since the oldest LibreOffice.

It is also reproducible on:
LibreOffice 3.3.0 
OOO330m19 (Build:6)
tag libreoffice-3.3.0.4

As to pre-fork versions:

The last known version without this bug is OpenOffice 2.2.1. It only has the gray resizing border.

First regression is introduced in OpenOffice 2.3.0. The formula is resized properly, but the original gray resizing border is stuck on the original size. The formula instead has another resizing widget with green boxes on the corners and edges, which is the one used in the document view. The green box is not selectable. This form of the bug persisted until OpenOffice 3.1.1.

The current form of the bug started appearing in OpenOffice 3.2.0. As usual, the gray border is stuck on original size, the green boxes appears resized, but the formula itself is clipped in the original gray border.

Dear A. Syukri Abdollah,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
