There's already a bug report about this, I think, here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32362
which also points back to an older bug from OpenOffice.org here: http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66848 But it doesn't look like there's been any activity on it for long time. I only recently stumbled on this bug while putting together a document/presentation in LibreOffice. You can kind of work around it in Impress in a roundabout way by making a big font non-scalable bracket and putting it on top of the bad one, but there's no working around it in Writer. For any kind of stuff where you might use big brackets in math formulas, it makes Impress more difficult to use and Writer impossible to use compared to MS Office. ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #32362 http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32362 ** Bug watch added: openoffice.org/bugzilla/ #66848 http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66848 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/827695 Title: bug in displaying scalable brackets in math object To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/827695/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
