Description Daniel Grigoras 2016-10-13 10:33:20 UTC 
Description:
There's no way to insert the underscore other than as a special symbol.
Isn't there another special symbol allowing for the underscore to be used as a plain symbol within a formula?

Regards,
Daniel

Actual Results:  
Underscore cannot be used within a formula as a plain symbol.

Expected Results:
The underscore is interpreted as the special symbol for subscript.


Reproducible: Always
