Issue ID: 126357
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Letters not in italics if preceded by number
Product: Math
Version: 4.1.1
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: P5

1st line: OK; 2nd line: not OK; 3rd line: workaround
Let's consider the following math expression:
ab^2
When it's typed inside OOMath like this, the rendered result is OK (cf attached
image).
However, when the expression is like this:
4ab^2
ie, there's *a number preceding the variables*, the rendered result is NOT OK.
Indeed, the variables are not in italics (cf attached image)
For the moment, a workaround would be artificially adding a space after the
number as shown in the third line in attached image:
4 ab^2
But in math typesetting, this is not needed nor recommended.
It seems like OOMath is confused when there's a number and is unable to
determine if a letter is variable or not!
