File containing sub/superscripting and equalized cells

Superscripting and/or subscripting is not retained in cells set equal to other cells that contain superscripted and/or subscripted text.

1. Open a Calc file.
2. Write some text in a cell (e.g., A1) and superscript one of the characters.
3. Set another cell equal to that cells contents (e.g., type "=A1" into cell C1).
4. Cell C1 will not retain the superscripted formatting.

Current behavior: Superscripting and/or subscripting is lost.

Expected behavior: Superscripting and/or subscripting is retained.


If using superscripting, then depending on the characters you need formatting, using Unicode can be a workaround. However, for subscripted characters this is much less likely (particularly for a font family like Liberation). Also, one has to think of the workaround.

Reproducible also with 3.5. Not sure if it's a bug, for example bold formatting is not also retained.

I'm not sure it is a bug.

In any case seem a duplicate, please if you are not agree reopen it.

Interesting comments there.
