[Desktop-packages] [Bug 827695]

[Dante19031999]

Hello,
This comment is going to be post on the bugs: bug 32362 bug 133081 bug 92373 
bug 127483
All those bugs seem to be related.
In my humble opinion as begginer programmer they seem to be related with a 
disfunction with OpenGL in windows.
Tested on linux (LO 6.4), no problem.
Tested with beta 7 on windows, no problem (does not use OpenGL any more).
So the bug happened to correct by itself.
So I suggest marking as duplicated bug 32362 bug 133081 bug 127483 and close 
them all.

[Rgb-mldc]

@dante19031999 this is NOT an OpenGL or OS related problem. Indeed, this
problem predates the whole introduction of OpenGL support into the
suite.

Insert a Math object into Writer and type this code

left[ stack{1#2#3#4#5#6#7#8} right]

you'll immediately see how wrong square brackets are, independently of
OpenGL, OS or anything: just print or export to PDF to see that's NOT a
display problem, but something deeper.

Either misunderstood completely or cannot confirm:  
With LibO 7.0.0.0.beta1 under Win 10 I got exactly the behavior previously 
described independent of whether 'skia' was enabled or not. 

See new attachment.

Great.

SORRY. I had forgotten about a former visit to this thread, and had missed the 
mentioned comment by Regina. 
Anyway I couldn't test with the two builds she mentioned, and my test with 
V5.0.2.2.release (32 bit PortableApp on Win 10; version before the claimed 
change) showed the issue in exactly the same way as the "Bad  rendering since 
2015_08_12" in Regina's comparison did.

I appreciate Regina's contributions, of course. I'm also glad that
contributions by the teacher I am would be welcome. Unfortunately I
completely lack the needed knowledge about fonts and many related
topics. Being 75 now I also cannot expect to find my way inside the
labyrinth which C-code in general and the code base of a huge project
like LibreOffice in specific is to me during the time left.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 827695]

What version(s) did it correctly? May the quoted statement have been an
error?

Will the issue be addressed one day?

Despite the fact that there isn't much mention of the 'Math' component
in forums I would assume that afflicted users (teachers e.g.) might be
relevant "agents" concerning the standing of free and open software.

See comment 30 and bug 97111, after that back to staus quo inherited
from OOo-- with some intervening improvements to accuracy of fitting the
stretched bracketing glyphs into their node bounds.

Possibly, and you get notice of it here.

And?  Teachers also are welcome to contribute source (as Regina does

Example of bad behavior for scalable brackets

As shown on attached document (which includes a Math object and a
screenshot with the problem highlighted), if you use scalable brackets
for a big object like a matrix, they became more and more "bold",
something should not happen.

A workaround is to make the scalable brackets as usual, then make two
more brackets (left and right) by themselves--two additional math
objects, then use the Position and Size window to scale these up to the
proper size, then position them on top of the bad brackets and use the
align tool to make sure the good brackets and the math formula are
properly aligned vertically.

But it seems like LibreOffice should be smart enough to properly scale
the brackets by itself.  How does LaTeX do things like that?  Would its
techniques in any way be transferable to LibreOffice?

Turns out the workaround I proposed is only possible in Impress.  In
Writer, it is impossible to have two math objects overlap.

So, can anyone do something about this?  Kinda makes LibreOffice a non-

I hope the developers get this bug fixed soon.  I've had to switch away from 
LibreOffice until this is fixed.  

This bug truly makes LibreOffice a non-starter for any kind of
technical/scientific document or presentation--and those are the types
of users who would tend to be most inclined to use LibreOffice over
proprietary competitors as long as the quality is comparable.

[Qa-admin-q]

Please read this message in its entirety before responding.

Your bug was confirmed at least 1 year ago and has not had any activity
on it for over a year. Your bug is still set to NEW which means that it
is open and confirmed. It would be nice to have the bug confirmed on a
newer version than the version reported in the original report to know
that the bug is still present -- sometimes a bug is inadvertently fixed
over time and just never closed.

If you have time please do the following:
1) Test to see if the bug is still present on a currently supported version of 
LibreOffice (preferably 4.2 or newer).
2) If it is present please leave a comment telling us what version of 
LibreOffice and your operating system.
3) If it is NOT present please set the bug to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a 
short comment telling us your version and Operating System

Please DO NOT
1) Update the version field
2) Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
3) Set the bug to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that 
is not appropriate in this case)

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + 
LibreOffice is powered by a team of volunteers, every bug is confirmed 
(triaged) by human beings who mostly give their time for free. We invite you to 
join our triaging by checking out this link:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugTriage

There are also other ways to get involved including with marketing, UX,
documentation, and of course developing -  http://www.libreoffice.org
/get-help/mailing-lists/.

Lastly, good bug reports help tremendously in making the process go
smoother, please always provide reproducible steps (even if it seems
easy) and attach any and all relevant material

Maybe this is a new bug - see attached. First seen In Libreoffice
version 4.2.6.3. Scalable brackets now appear as bold. It makes maths
look ugly.  Peter

The right way to fix this bug is to use several glyphs to draw the brace
e.g. one glyph for the top, one for the middle and one for the bottom.
The rest of the brace are two vertical lines that can easily be extended
to arbitrary size (e.g. by repeating a glyph for vertical bar or drawing
a line). In general, you need to use some specific mathematical fonts
that contain the glyphs for the most important stretchy operators e.g.
the STIX fonts.

There have been discussion on the LibreOffice mailing list about using
STIX fonts as well as supporting the Open Type Math table (here, at
least the stretchy variants/constructions would help).

[Kzqdnsw4-peter-x8oxkp4u]

A year or two ago I asked about this bug because I needed it fixed for
my thesis. Someone suggested using the TexMaths Equations editor instead
(it embeds LaTeX into LibreOffice). This worked perfectly and saved me
from having to convert my work to word. Is there any way we could just
use this instead? It properly scales brackets with large objects. I'd
recommend it, because I think this bug is about a decade old.

[Fred-wang]

Thanks for the replies. I have to say that I studied LibreOffice Math
after some reports from MathJax users about issues with mathematical
formulas. So I'm mainly concerned about getting a good MathML export at
the moment so that LibreOffice users can publish their content on the
Web. (Of course, I also realize it is important to have an open-source
office productivity software suite with good math rendering but that's
not my personal priority).

I've just posted some thoughts on what could be done in the future:

I had a cursory look at Math while ago, and my impression is that it is
a hopeless case, it has to be rewritten from scratch (at least the math
renderer) if any sane math rendering is to be achieved.

Created attachment 53928
updated example of bad bracket behaviour

I made a new example document that shows more problems with the
brackets.

Right now there are two kinds of brackets. Normal and Scalable.

Normal Brackets just draw the Unicode character normally. It scales in
the same way all the other characters scale and lines up just like a
normal characer.

Scalable Brackets do something else. I am not sure what. They scale
linearly to be the same hight as the object they inclose. They are not
just normal brackets that get stretched up and down. they look different
from the normal brackets even when the object they enclose is one
character tall.


  Fixing this _The Right Way_ is NOT an easy hack


It would require actual mutations of the vector (bezier) curves inside
the bracket characters that are drawn. Or a custom implementation of the
bracket characters.

If this was done properly there would be only one kind of bracket, which
would make them easier to use and fit the sort of just works standard
that we all aspire to have in our software.

There isn't a solution that looks good and ONLY involves scaling.

Assuming that the bracket characters don't have a lot of unnessecary
bezier curve endpoints along thier curves, the solution is to:

1. design a system so that arbitrary offsets can be applied to the
positions of arbitrary curve endpoints. A demo of this system would be a
character that fits inline and looks just like other characters, but can
have a sine wave distortion applied to the positions of its curve
endpoints so that it wobbles like a skrillex song.

2. design a new scaling system based on the previous step.  The
character is placed in front of the object to inclose, and looks just
like how the Normal brackets look now. Then, the curve endpoints that
lie in the top third of the character are moved until thier top edge
lines up with the top edge of the object to be enclosed, and the bottom
third moved down in a similar fasion.


It is possible that this would produce bad curves on something like the curly 
brace, but in theory the curve tangents could be adjusted algorithmically based 
on the distance that the endpoints were moved, to compensate.

Example of bad behavior for scalable brackets

As shown on attached document (which includes a Math object and a
screenshot with the problem highlighted), if you use scalable brackets
for a big object like a matrix, they became more and more bold,
something should not happen.

A workaround is to make the scalable brackets as usual, then make two
more brackets (left and right) by themselves--two additional math
objects, then use the Position and Size window to scale these up to the
proper size, then position them on top of the bad brackets and use the
align tool to make sure the good brackets and the math formula are
properly aligned vertically.

But it seems like LibreOffice should be smart enough to properly scale
the brackets by itself.  How does LaTeX do things like that?  Would its
techniques in any way be transferable to LibreOffice?

Turns out the workaround I proposed is only possible in Impress.  In
Writer, it is impossible to have two math objects overlap.

So, can anyone do something about this?  Kinda makes LibreOffice a non-
starter when it comes to putting math formulas in documents.

Is there any system at libreoffice whereby I can put a bounty on this

I hope the developers get this bug fixed soon.  I've had to switch away from 
LibreOffice until this is fixed.  

This bug truly makes LibreOffice a non-starter for any kind of
technical/scientific document or presentation--and those are the types
of users who would tend to be most inclined to use LibreOffice over
proprietary competitors as long as the quality is comparable.
