--- Comment #11 from V Stuart Foote  ---
(In reply to QA Administrators from comment #10)
Remains an issue. Attempting to resize the OLE with the grips has no function.

But for sm formula OLE, as noted comment 9 wrapping the formula in Size ## {}
will correctly resize the OLE object on document canvas with changes to the
size entered-- default 12pt would resize to 15 point:

size 15 { a^2 + b^2 = c^2 }

And the object can be repositioned on canvas.  So, is enhancement needed to
directly manipulate the sm OLE with the grips? Maybe not and this is => WF

Dear Tor Lillqvist,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today,
LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed
bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this
bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the
details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in
getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information
from Help - About LibreOffice.

If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to
RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help
- About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular
meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a
REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your
bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from
http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat:
https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/irc.freenode.net/#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team

Today I learned the proper way to resize a formula (its font size) is to use
the size attribute in the formula editor like so:

size 20 { your formula goes here }

--- Comment #5 from Caolán McNamara  ---
I'm going to argue that this is not a regression and clear those keywords as
the current behaviour is the "traditional" one. And the efforts to change that
showed up loads of problems so its now back to the old way of doing things.

--- Comment #4 from Regina Henschel  ---
It is a controversial subject, and I think, the desired behavior should be
discussed on the mailing list, not here in the bugtracker. One of the
controversial topic is, whether and how a change in the display should affect
internals of the object.

In case of Writer one UI-error is, that in Writer the "Size" checkbox in the
"Protect" section in the "Options"-tab of the property dialog shows a wrong
state. If the size state is not changeable at all, this property should show
state "checked" and be shown as "disabled". On the "Type" tab it is correct.

>From a file format view on the problem all transformations are allowed. You can
always set a draw:transform attribute on the draw:frame element, which contains
the draw:object. And svg:width and svg:height are allowed too. I have not
found, that they may be ignored for a text document. Currently you have the
problem, that e.g. a svg:width is correctly read on loading, but there is no
way in the UI of Writer to change this value other than setting it back to
original object size by editing the formula.

--- Comment #3 from V Stuart Foote  ---
For now in Writer the green handles of Formula OLE objects only allow movement
of the object. Also in Writer, the Object dialog's "Type" tab only shows Size
settings and they are not editable for formulas.

Adjustments to font size and borders of the these Formula objects must be done
in the Math Formula editor Format -> Font Size and Format -> Spacing dialogs.

Some history in these issues:

Bug 48846 [1]- FORMATTING Writer: Formula resizing not working
Bug 75408 [2]- Formula in writer is shrinked instead of keeping same size when
changing border space in writer style

the first added global resizing for formulas, the second reverted it due to
issues of adding border spacing reducing size of the object.  Resulting in an
enhancement for all OLE objects to handle size of frame/object border spacing
differently.

Bug 85860 - OLE object frame properties and styles: border lines and spacing
should optionally increase frame size rather than reduce content to fit

Also, in Draw/Impress the OLE Formula object *can* be resized from the
"Position and Size" dialog by unprotecting the size, checking "Keep ratio", and
setting the size spinner boxes. But not so in Writer nor in Math as the dialog
is not implemented.

--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote  ---
Actually, if you open the OLE object into the formula editor (i.e. double
click), the object can not be resized directly there either. 

The formula can only be adjusted using Formula Editor menu Format -> Spacing
dialog. Use the Category dropdown and select the Borders attribute.

Suspect the resizing/cropping widgets added that work on other OLE objects (and
show up as the green handles/red handles) simply have no linkage to the ODF
formula objects.
