screenshot is OK but please upload test file as well. Created attachment 97118 [details]
i created a new textfile, same behaviour.
your test file shows the same %Ux2112 symbol in Win7x64 using 4.1.5.3 I change platform and version fields. status NEW do you remember this working on older LibO releases? if yes, which one? I can't say on which version it first appeared. But i first noticed it about half a year ago on the version distributed with ubuntu. So it might be around 4.1, but I can't say for sure. Confirmed in 4.2.4.2 (release) on Xubuntu 14.04 as well. Inserting special character (user-defined) from the catalog (Uppercase script L, laplace, %Ux2112) inserts %Ux2112 into the formula. It looks like somebody else has discovered this bug. This feature worked perfectly well on previous version of this software. Now the formulas display the hex code for the special symbol and not the symbol itself. The Greek symbols still behave properly. Most of my work is math documentation so this bug has stopped my output. ** Please read this message in its entirety before responding ** To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to "inherited from OOo"; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add "regression" to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=libreoffice-qa Thank you for your help! -- The LibreOffice QA Team This NEW Message was generated on: 2016-02-21 ** Please read this message in its entirety before responding ** To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

Warm Regards, QA Team MassPing-UntouchedBug-20170306 Per request of QA Administrators, I retested this bug on version 5.1.6.2 and have confirmed it to be fixed. Now, inserting %Ux2112 in the formula editor displays upper-case script L (laplace). |
Created attachment 97085 [details] bug.png: Above the formual that have been opened, thus the Laplace operator is no longer displayed. Instead it showes %Ux2112. Below an untouched formula. I'm working on an older document. When i selected a formula to change it, the special characters (%Ux...) are no longer displayed, instead i see the code of this character. Formulas that I dont edit (not double click) stay as they should be.
