The mentioned example

The issue was addressed for V 24.2.7.2 in https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/120192 and is still present in V 25.2.1.2 (which was used for the example).
I could neither find a realted remark in old releas notes nor ion any help text or guide, nor a reasonable guess for what the behaviour might have been introduced.
The attached example isn't a Math document because LibO refuses to store one. Having embedded one as OLE in Writer it is stored but can't be activated for edditing after lo0ading.

It got support since 7e2c35324c54646f53f0fa14b7bce07e1da73c0b (bug 109338).

The first and the last look relevant (esp. the last one).
Comment 4 Wolfgang Jäger 2025-03-30 21:48:48 UTC
I should mention:
The example .odt I attached to the original report SHOWS a stored "preview" of the formula, but the embedded OLE object has an empty (0 characters) content.xml.
