Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 43926
Rationalise the layout of aportrophe characters
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:54:45 UTC
Check this picture: http://people.inf.elte.hu/pentek_i/doksik/Linux/bugs/OOo/df.png In mathematics we often use apostrophe characters to distuinguish objects, like f and f' maybe apostrophe should be treated as if it would be an upper index, so the lower index would be just below the apostrophe sign.
.
Target set to OOo 2.0.1. As agreed with MRU it may also be changed to Target set to OOo 2.0.2.
Considering the effort, the priority, the risk and our resource planning I've to retarget this issue to OOo Later.
Work-Around supposed by Özgür (thanks!), usage of "stack" like: size 12 {f = f size 8 {stack {' # n }}}
the last suggestion is not a workaround is not an adequate solution. I thing it is an escape from trying to improve math editor. Try to do the following and you will see that the subscript letter is getting farther from the f letter. size 12 {f = f size 8 {stack {''' # n }}} So you have to add more commands to align the letters to the left. Even after doing alignment the n letter is still far from the f letter.
I think this bug could be marked as duplicate of issue 52620, esp because content in that issue is richer that in this one. However, status of this issue is STARTED while status of that one is NEW. No idea if this really matters to mark duplicity.
