             Bug #: 46694
           Summary: Cannot Wrap Long Formulas Insert->Object->Formula in
                    Writer and Calc
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.4.5 release
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Libreoffice
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


When using Insert->Object->Formula in Writer or Calc long formulas stretch into
the margin and are not printed correctly.  If the formula would wrap with the
size of the container, long formulas could be added to documents with less
trouble.  The container of the formulas is also rigid and would need to be
resizable for this to work.  Decreasing the font size works, but long formulas
become unreadable.

I came up with one workaround which was to add the formula to the document and
select it there, then copy the formula and paste it into a photo editor (I used
Irfanview).  This is a good work around since there are options for adding
text, color, and a caption, but it is still a workaround during normal use.

I did not test any of the other components of LO, but I assume the problem
would be the same.

Here is a test formula that stretches beyond the margin in Writer:

drarrow E_2=1 over 2 left [ left ( M2 d_2^2 + ZZ1 + ZZ2 + MX2 C2 d_2 - MY2 S2
d_2 right ) dot{q_1}^2 + left ( 2 ZZ2 + MX2 C2 d_2 - MY2 S2 d_2 right )
dot{q_1} dot{q_2} + ZZ2 dot{q_2}^2 right ]
