Penalver wrote: Ivan Timofeev, thank you for taking a look at this. Using as a WORKAROUND: {} newline {} is acceptable in the all the cases mentioned in the Description. However, this report is about addressing how the use of newline does not have caveats as per the documentation: http://help.libreoffice.org/Math/Format http://help.libreoffice.org/Math/Entering_Line_Breaks So, any of the original of the examples provided in the Description are valid and should work, but not all do. It would be beneficial for newline be changed to work according to the expectation mentioned in the Description. As well, having newline's idiosyncrasies documented in the meantime would be nice for others who fall down the same hole.

Not always "{} newline {}". You use {} when you need to provide the missing operand of a binary operator. For example, a+b_ij newline = c+d # left-hand side is missing at the second line a+b_ij newline {} = c+d # add {} - OK a+b_ij = newline c+d # right-hand side is missing at the first line a+b_ij = {} newline = c+d # add {} - OK And from my point of view, the requirement - "provide all operands, otherwise there will be the flipped question mark" - is simply awful, it would be a great improvement to get rid of it. newline's behavior will be much more intuitive.
