I am not sure what the hack does, but here is my take on it: the metrics in our ttf fonts (and in the original pfb fonts are broken at least for wasy and cmex). In order to get symbols at the right place, we already have to fix it in some arbitrary manner (see MathSymbolInset::metrics). It appears that Qt/Mac handles these metrics in a differently broken way. Therefore, we have to apply a different arbitrary hack. I am sure there is a better fix, but I do not know it. And I do not really understand what the problem is :) I am sure everything is cristal clear for you now :) JMarc
