--- Comment #10 from Arnab C <[email protected]> --- (In reply to V Stuart Foote from comment #9) > => NEW > > *mispositioning* of OLE formula object within its OOXML styled paragraph is > real and persistent round trip, and also as ODF text. Question of how the > OLE formula object should be positioned. Should it follow All/Some/or None > of the containing PS? Also, I want to mention one additional point regarding this formula handling in LibreOffice writer. I am working with standard Journal templates in LibreOffice Writer for a long time. Whenever I am marking a simple text formula and converting it directly to the OLE object (the aim is to convert the formula text to standard formatted mathematical formula, similar to Smart Formula conversion of MS Office), there are many wrong formatting present in the final formatted OLE formula, which have to be corrected manually by following the formatting rules of OLE in LibreOffice Writer, which is again a very difficult process, unlike the hassle-free & error-free smooth process in MS Office. Again, we cannot simply revert the OLE formula to simple text by any option, the only way is to copy the text from formula editor and then delete the OLE object and then paste the text in that place. Not at all user-friendly. Clearly LibreOffice Writer can beat MS Office if just 2 things are taken care of: 1. keep the template format intact. 2. handle the formulas well. Why am I saying that? 1. I have often seen, the official IEEE template, when opened with MS Office, shows a particular margin space, but when the same template is opened with LibreOffice Writer the margin space can be seen narrower, which indicates that the original margin is somehow cannot be maintained in LibreOffice Writer for some issue. This kind of formatting mismanagements are there in LibreOffice. 2. Whenever math formulas are handled in LibreOffice, there are hardships and issues in various steps. It is not smooth and flexible to convert simple text formulas to the standard formatted formulas and vice-versa. We have to manually correct many errors when we convert a text formula directly to the OLE object by selecting that part, which is rarely any issue in MS Office. I want LibreOffice Writer to be the best. I am trying my best to identify the issues while I am working with it in professional level. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
