------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Sep 27 04:12:48 +0000 2008 ------- It should be possible to insert an equation anywhere in a line and have it behave like a very wide symbol, e.g., if text is inserted to the left of the equation, the equation should automatically shift to the right, and any text to the right of it should also shift, wrapping to the next line if necessary. When an equation is inserted into a presentation slide, the reasonable default behavior is that of an inline object, although it makes sense to also allow users to create floating equations. I'd also like to see automatic numbering of equations. Although it would require minimal effort to convert PowerPoint into something that meets the needs of scientists, mathematicians, and engineers, Microsoft has never had the slightest interest in doing this. There is no need for OOo to adopt the same attitude. In fact, improved support for mathematics in presentations would be an excellent way for OOo to distinguish itself from the Evil Empire. Copying rdanse's idea, I'm also willing to donate $50 to the development team if a solution to this problem can be implemented and released by the end of 2008. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
