Description Laurent Balland 2016-06-22 14:04:23 UTC
Description: Following bug 77744 comment 6 In UI trend line dialog, enable user to modify X variable name (default is 'x') and Y variable name (default is 'f(x)')

Steps to reproduce:
1. Insert a trend line and check 'Show Equation'

Actual behavior:
Equation looks like 'f(x) = ... x ...'

Expected behavior
In UI trendline dialog, if 'Show Equation' is checked, two edit text fields should appear:
X variable name: (default 'x')
Y variable name: (default 'f(x)')
This may give more customized equation such as:
P(t) = ... t ...

Is it possible to have subscript and superscript in the X and Y variable names?

No while bug 39052 is not fixed.
Superscript in polynomial equation is just a trick thanks to unicode superscript digits. See
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit?id=a0b1a10ddcf5e17116055a0c82200231bf5cd55f

You may use the same trick with ² and so on. 
Equation is just a string with only one format for the whole string like titles or textboxes in chart.
