Test file

See test file. It has "(E" being subscripted by "g", and thus the closing parenthesis doesn't match anything, which results in lots of red question marks in formula rendering.
I'm not sure how this should be fixed, perhaps when such messed formula appears as result of parsing, parser should escape/quote nonmatching parentheses or something.

I see this problem in 3.6.3.2 as well so I'm changing version
@reporter - version represents oldest version that the bug is confirmed on. It looks different on 3.6.3.2 vs. on 4.1 master but both show the red question marks which seem to be incorrect :)

Marking as:
New (confirmed)
Normal - can prevent high quality work for those inserting formulas in writer and using docx format
Medium - default priority for normal bugs, no need to change this for this bug

Thanks for reporting.

This looks to be more of an import filter issue than a Writer issue. There is some confusion between straight and curly brackets.

Changing the first formula in attachment 72754 [details] from

  {E} rsub {g} = {{E} rsub {g}} rsub {GaN} + {{(E} rsub {g}} rsub {AlN} {{-E} rsub {g}} rsub {GaN} )x-cx(1-x)
to

  {E} rsub {g} = {{E} rsub {g}} rsub {GaN} + {{{E} rsub {g}} rsub {AlN} {{-E} rsub {g}} rsub {GaN} }x-cx(1-x)

(replacing some straight brackets with curly brackets) makes it render more like the sample image


Setting:

Version -> 3.5.6.2 (3.3 doesn't render the formulae at all, so not inherited from OOo or a regression as such)
Component -> filters and storage
Whiteboard -> filter:docx
