Re: Fractions below baseline in 2.3

This may be a matter of spacing between the fraction bar and the character. One day I will try to understand the rules implemented in the TeXbook and compare them to what we actually do. I have been doing that for other parts (in 2.3 the spacing between characters), but it takes a lot of time to get right. JMarc
Re: Fractions below baseline in 2.3
Yes, I can see it. The issue is that the \pi in math input mode is smaller than the \pi in latex, which makes it look unbalanced in math input mode. Probably nothing to do about that.

This is on Mac.Inline image Inline image The dividing lines for the fractions both look pretty well centered to me. I think the issue may be that the \pi glyph is not as tall as the 2 glyph, so the fraction is visually asymmetric. Try f = k 3/2 and see if you still think it is off kilter. Paul

Of course once they are typeset, they move to the correct position. But in the math input mode it's almost as though fractions are in subscript mode. Anyone else noticed? I would be interested to have an example file. JMarc

I just tried a couple of equations (one inline, one display) containing fractions in 2.3.0, and they looked fine to me. I'm basing that on the dividing line between numerator and denominator being centered vertically on the line. This was on Linux Mint MATE, Qt 5.5.1. Paul
