I canĀ“t confirm this with OOo 1.1.0(en) on Win98. Could you attach a screenshot of the badly displayed dot q? Thanks. As to the other problems you report. Have you enabled (within MathEditor menue) > View > Autoupdate Display ? Created attachment 11195 [details]
Gif image of the "dot q" problem
Yes I enabled View > Autoupdate Display. I have attached a gif illustrating the problem. The selected font is Helvetica italic. The base size is 12pts. My plateform is linux I have an aditional comment : The auto-redraw problem only happens when inserting an equation in a presentation or drawing document. If you insert it in a word document or as standalone starmath document the content of the equation and the boundaries are updated correctly. Thanks for the attachment, yet I still can't confirm. Maybe that's a OS related problem so others need to have a look at it. As to the autoupdate problem, I can confirm this. Yet we shouldn't continue describing two problems in one and the same Issue. Please open a new Issue for the autoupdating problem, and choose "Enhancement" as Issue Type since this clearly isn't a defect. Created attachment 11242 [details]
Sxw with Formulae in arial
Tested with 1.1.0 under RH9. Changed default fonts from times to arial and checked all was okay. Attached test file for further checking as it may impact crossplatform stuff. Guido, if it looks fine under Windows using my attachment I recommend closing in the manner you suggested. ulutte, which Linux distribution do you use? There are some problems on certain distributions regarding fonts delivered with it (such as Times new Roman on Redhat 7.x or 8.x). The fonts delivered with these are slightly corrupted (see issue 20681). The problem occurs on slackware 8.x and Slackware 9.0. MRU->HDU: I can reproduce the problem now on my new Mandrake Linux 9.1 installation. When entering a Formula like "dot q" in Math editor and using TIMES as default font for Variables and a size of 24 pt, the display looks as described. *** Issue 21894 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** Created attachment 12808 [details]
Formula document showing the problem on some Linux derivates
accepted according to the announcement on releases (http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=releases&msgNo=7503) this issue will be re-targeted to OOo Later. Hi, I tested this on 1.1.3 : the problem is still there (redraw problem and misplaced dot/hat problem with e.g. timmons font). Jacques X11 fonts are no longer used in StarMath on X11 => the most appropriate status for this issue is now WORKSFORME Closing. |
