Hi:

I am using Open Office 3.3.0 on a Window's 7 computer

In the past, the default behaviour of the equation editor was to put Greek letters (eg Beta) in italics. Now regular letters (eg Y) are put in italics but Greek letters are not.

Does anyone know how to change that (I can't find any general settings which control this behaviour).

One work around is to put the "ital" command into the equation, but this has the undesirable effect of making any subscripts italicized also. For example

Y = %beta_0 results in the Y being italicized (good) but not the Beta (bad)

Y = ital %beta_0 will italize the Beta, but also the subscripted 0 (which I don't want)

I would be very grateful if anyone knows how to revers this change in behaviour of the equation editor (I am not sure which version it happened with).

Thank you
Ian Dohoo
