... which brings me to the idea of having formula templates, equal to paragraph
or text templates.

Such a formula template could define:
- Font sizes e.g.:
   - base size, usually 100% of paragraph text size, or 120% for "umr5174" ;-)
   - indices size, usually 60% of base size and so on ...
- Overall Formula fonts and color
- positioning and anchoring (as f.e. "as character", "to paragraph")
- insets (2 mm left, 2 mm right to text)
- other things, e.g formula borders and background color (I think someone else
suggested this in another issue.)

Advantages:
1.) It would be possible to create formula templates, e g. for separate vs.
in-text formulae or for formulae within a table (having smaller fonts).
2.) Changing a formula from in-text to separate would require only one-two
clicks in the stylist.
3.) Changing one of the templates would correct sizes etc. for all such formulae
in the whole document.

Anyway, this would improve usebility a lot and would also solve Regina's problem
 - if sizes relative to the paragraph text size are supported.

Should I open another issue for this suggestion?

OS set to All.
