Great. SORRY. I had forgotten about a former visit to this thread, and had missed the mentioned comment by Regina. Anyway I couldn't test with the two builds she mentioned, and my test with V5.0.2.2.release (32 bit PortableApp on Win 10; version before the claimed change) showed the issue in exactly the same way as the "Bad rendering since 2015_08_12" in Regina's comparison did. > > Despite the fact that there isn't much mention of the 'Math' component in > > forums I would assume that afflicted users (teachers e.g.) might be relevant > > "agents" concerning the standing of free and open software. > > And? Teachers also are welcome to contribute source (as Regina does > regularly) ;-) I appreciate Regina's contributions, of course. I'm also glad that contributions by the teacher I am would be welcome. Unfortunately I completely lack the needed knowledge about fonts and many related topics. Being 75 now I also cannot expect to find my way inside the labyrinth which C-code in general and the code base of a huge project like LibreOffice in specific is to me during the time left. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/827695 Title: [Upstream] bug in displaying scalable square brackets in math object Status in LibreOffice: Confirmed Status in OpenOffice: Confirmed Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in openoffice.org package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: 1) lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 11.04 Release: 11.04 2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer libreoffice-writer: Installed: 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2 Candidate: 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2 Version table: *** 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty-updates/main i386 Packages 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu4 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages 3) When is expected to happen in LibreOffice Writer via a terminal: cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/827695/+attachment/2284273/+files/bracket_example.odt && lowriter --nologo bracket_example.odt is the scalable square brackets look as they would in Word. Latex also shows the desired bracket shape as per https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/827695/+attachment/2287347/+files/latex_brackets.pdf . 4) What happens instead is the top and bottom part of the bracket look like a square instead of a line pointing inwards towards the equation.
