Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 53330
Implement autowrapping/breaking of formula/equation
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:39:27 UTC
The OOo 2.0 formula eeditor does not provide autowrapping features for formulae whatsoever. Only the newline character is provided, but also this lacks proper idention for wrapped equations. Multiple problems appear due to this fact (e.g. oversized formula frames or ugly prettyprinting). Most of the MathML2.0 engines support formula wrapping and this could be implemented into OOo, like suggested in: http://www.mathmlconference.org/2002/presentations/smirnova/#5.1 or Appendix B of: http://www.cs.unibo.it/~lpadovan/phd_thesis/main.pdf As an intermediate approach only +,-,* terms could be automatically broken, wrapped and idented.
