Description k-riley 2019-02-21 17:23:20 UTC
Description:
If you change the default font size for the Formula editor, certain mathematical symbols and expressions are not initially affected by the change.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Writer
2. On the menu bar, click Insert, Object, Formula...
3. On the Formula Editor menu bar, click Format, Font Size...
4. Change the font base size to a non-default value (not 12). Setting it to a very large value, such as 80, demonstrates this bug more clearly. 
5. Click the "default" button and click "yes".
6. Click "Ok"
7. Exit Writer, do not save the document.
8. Open Writer again
9. On the menu bar, click Insert, Object, Formula...
10. Type "sum a" without the quotes. If you had set the font base size to a relatively large value, you should clearly see that the summation symbol is much smaller than it should be. It appears to be the original default size of 12. The "a" character is the correct size, though.
11. Click on the white page in the Formula editor to exit back into Writer.
12. Save the document as an .odt file.
13. Exit Writer.
14. Open Writer again and open the saved document.
15. Double click on the "sum a" Formula object, thereby entering into the Formula editor.
16. Observe that the size of the summation symbol has been automatically corrected.


Try repeating the above steps, but instead of typing "sum a" in step 10, type in the following:   left[ matrix{ a#b ## c#d } right]

The vertical size of the matrix appears to be correct, but the horizontal size is wrong. The matrix is too narrow. If you go all the way through to step 16, you will see that the matrix's size will widen to the correct amount.

Comment 1 Durgapriyanka 2019-02-28 22:05:45 UTC
Thank you for reporting the bug.I cannot reproduce both the bugs.

As you said in step 10, the summation symbol is in the correct size of default value 80.

The size of the matrix also is displayed correctly on the first time only even before saving the file and opening it again.

Does it work if you disable OpenGl ? -> https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/OpenGL

I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to
'UNCONFIRMED' if the issue is still present

The bug still occurs when OpenGL is disabled.

I'm also getting the bug in the portable version of LibreOffice. Version: 6.1.4.2
Comment 9 Buovjaga 2019-04-05 07:17:04 UTC
Do you see the same in a master build? https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/Win-x86_64@42/current/

I installed the April 7th master build today, and the bug is occurring in it.

When you tried to reproduce the bug, did you close and then re-open Writer after changing the default font size (steps 7 and 8)? The reason I ask is because when I don't perform those steps, and I type "sum a" right after I change the default font size, the fonts are the correct size. The bug only appears after I restart Writer.

Yes, I closed it.

Impress file to show the two differen appearances of the formula

I have also hit this bug of the formula editor in Impress (LibreOffice 6.3.0.4). I will attach a slide that shows my two formulas, one generated only with the changed default font size, the other corrected afterwards by changing the formula font size twice.

Ok, let's set to NEW.

Are you using Windows or Linux or macOS?
