-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi
Actually I think (after doing the patch) that such extensions should be more easily handled by macros. On a side note: Have you get to now dmath? http://www.dmaths.org/documentation/doku.php?id=presentation:en In any case, here is a fragment of a very simple macro that allow you to append whatever you want into a formula: +++++++++++++++ Sub MacroMath GlobalScope.BasicLibraries.LoadLibrary("Tools") Dim oDocument as object oDocument = ThisComponent 'test if the document is a math document (OpenDocument Formula) If getDocumentType(oDocument) <> "smath" then msgbox " The document is not a ODF formula" Stop EndIf oWhatIHave = oDocument.Formula myExpression = "forall <?> in <?>, exists <?> in <?> divides f(<?>) + g(<?>) leslant <?>, <?> in <?>" oDocument.Formula = oWhatIHave & myExpression ' bla bla bla End Sub +++++++++++++++ Add a nice dialog to get some input parameters and a lot of clumsy math expressions could be added very quickly.
