Bug ID: 146727
Summary: Import strings that matches specific LO Math operators
in MSO equations as text
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Formula Editor
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
There are several cases when some strings that are Math operators are used as
single chain strains or even variable emphasis.
Some examples are:
1) "bar" = common unit of measure for pressures, is also a command for overline
variables
2) "cicle", "square", may be single words inside an equation.
3) "+", "*" and other operators are used for emphasis, like, for instance, a
reference value.
In the attached DOCX file, there are several examples of that are not well
imported.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open attached file
2.
3.
Actual Results:
Equations 2 to 3 have been lost. If the file is saved by LO, and then opened
and saved by MS Word, there will be data loss.
Expected Results:
All equations are correctly imported.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
I don't know how "circle" and "bar" emphasis are handled within MSO, but I
think that "bar", "circle", and other strings that matches Math operators
should be imported as quoted text.
On the other hand, "+" and "*" should have been imported also as quotated text,
although I'm not sure on how to solve this case. Maybe, when Math detects an
error when importing from Word, it should import all as quoted text?
