Only I miss a few symbols. Why isn't there the sha symbol that is often used in fourier transforms. The integral symbol is not scalable and is very small. And if you're typing you don't have the help like in matlab and other mathamatical programms that you see that you correctly closed you're The error reporting could be better because an upset-down question mark doesn't tell you what you did wrong. There is no function to outline the formula's. You can only do that with a trick with a matrix and the function phantom. There should be an extra function to automatically outline formula's. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I use text-based input method and this way is for me faster than using keyboard-mouse-keyboard-mouse. I've spent only about two hours to learn OOo Math basics. I make several documents with equations and I say, that command-line method is for me better, than GUI input, for example, in MSEE. Just two hours of learning, men, just two hours - and it will be OK. On the other hand I understand, that the GUI input will help people, which wish to migrate from MSO to OOo. So I think, that command-line input must exist ever and GUI input is a useful feature for immigrants. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

In this sense the user already has a choice... I would prefer the OOo bugs fixed first though... - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I think they both mean the same thing, in which case, I agree, I'm definitely for it. But obviously this should not replace text entry editing. It should operate in parallel, as you said, so the user has a choice on how to edit (and view) the formula. By keyboard shortcuts, I mean a full palette of options available by simple two-key combinations. For example, why should I have to type 1 over 2 when I could type 1 [Ctrl-o] 2 and get the same thing? My philosophy is that the power user should be enabled to use a minimum of keystrokes to get the desired result. We may have to agree to disagree about this...? :-) - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Can we get some votes for the following enhancement/problem statement? To enchance OOo.Formula to allow GUI/WYISWYG editing, in addition to current assisted text-input method. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I've used Mathematica before and found that UI satisfying, because it provided three approaches: palette GUI, text-input, and lastly, keyboard shortcuts. The point of keyboard shortcuts is not to supplant the other two, and not to be easier to learn than the OOo math code (that's what the GUI is for), but to provide fast entry capability for the power user who doesn't want to type, for example, wideslash whenever they want a pretty-slash fraction. But please consider the shortcuts carefully; they should be both intuitive and simple. I personally find the Word shortcuts to be unintuitive, but maybe it's just me. In any case, many thanks! - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

GUI palette to click, text-input to show and edit the formula. Not sure on the keyboard shortcut. GUI palette is targetted for GUI/competitive program users, whereas text-input for advanced users. What is lacking? Possible enhancement is GUI editing. An important element in many competitve programs is users are able to edit the result. This is not available in OOo.Formula... and that make new user run away. The cursor should be by default in the result. Any changes in the GUI/result should be reflected immediately in the text-input. For example I click this formula, the formula appears in my current cursor. I click that formula, it appears in my next cursor location. Of course, the parameters can be user's input, formula from formula button click or symbol from symbol button click. For advanced user... they type whatever they want... and the result appears in the GUI result. Garbage in garbage out. Switching between GUI/result input and text-input can be made possible via mouse click or shortcut. Comment? - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

To cut the long story short: Although many users prefer the way OOo handles formula typing (which can be really fast), some would like a more intuitive, e.g. Word-like, solution. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I completely agree with hflees' analysis. Of course, the best solution is to have it both ways, but this is a lot of coding to do. Currently, I (and some other people *) , would like to see the formula editor going in more proffesional direction (e.g. Latex) rather than having more GUI. * See a discussion in http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=12297 - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
