Priority: medium
Bug ID: 66273
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Superscript asterisk a{*} character missing in formula
editor due to being a binary operator
Severity: enhancement
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: NEW
Version: 4.0.2.2 release
Component: Formula Editor
Product: LibreOffice
The asterisk in the equation a^{*} appears as an unrecognized character (broken
equation). Repeat by pasting this in formula editor in Libreoffice Writer and
bug appears immediately
I wonder if the asterisk as an operator shouldn't be a feature since other
document editing software (i.e. excluding math/excel etc) uses Libreoffice's a
times b as the only command for multiplying.
I post because the use of a superscript asterisk is basic/essential to any
mathematician etc who works with anything in equilibrium, as ^* is the common
way to represent them
Importing documents from Microsoft/google docs leaves the character as blank
(applies to all file versions).
Bug in 4.0.2.2 but I'm guessing this is a master bug if anyone can reproduce in
3.* version
