Bug 2264: Problems with text over \overbrace

2006-02-01 Thread Helge Hafting
Start mathed, enter a short formula, put an overbrace over all of it, use ^ to write over over the overbrace. So far so good. Exit the math formula, then use left arrow to get into it again. Now you are in a position after the overbrace, anything typed here will appear after the braced formula.
