Interestingly, I discovered that if I use a - (hyphen) in front of a
feature it does not appear in the feature bracket. Nor does it
appear if I use a real minus sign using the numeric keypad. I did
get it to appear when I inserted the character from Insert > Special
Character. However, even then the words did not line up because the
minus sign was narrower than the plus sign. I finally figured out
that what worked perfectly was an en-dash (Unicode hex 2013).
For what it's worth, it works simply for me (in my 3.0 for Windows
XP) using the symbol from the keyboard. Is it a font problem?

Dang it, there's one more problem. Every time I create a new feature
bracket the font is set to Times New Roman, italic. I have to double
click on the feature bracket to get it in editing mode, then go into
the Format > Fonts dialog box and laboriously change all the
instances of Times to the font I use for my documents, and uncheck
the italics box. What a pain.
I've looked all over but I can't find a place to change the default
font for fomulas. Please tell me it's there somewhere. Having to do
this over again every time I create a feature bracket is a pain.
After you have used the Modify button to change the fonts as you
prefer, press the Default button immediately below it.
