------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Jan 26 18:58:45 -0800 2007 ------- Another 2 votes for this issue. As another EE, I find the lack of this feature frustrating. I've tried the unicode macron approach and it doesn't look good. The 'insert formula' approach looked promising after changin the formula font, but it's not suitable for me. Formulae are inserted as objects, and as I autogenerate a lot of documents, this overcomplicates things for my scripts. I'm willing to take this issue on, if I get some guidance. As I see it, and I admit to not having hacked on OpenOffice before, the following would need to be done: * Add overlining capabilities to the text renderer. The chances are that this already exists somewhere as formulae can be overlined. (Do formualae and ordinary text use the same code? If not, maybe I can borrow from the formula renderer. Or maybe copy and modify the underlining code.) * Update the OpenOffice document XML spec to accept 'overline' as a valid text-decoration. Make sure overlined text can be loaded and saved. * Update the GUI to allow overlining. * Update documentation/help text. As I've said - if anyone can point me in the right direction, I'm willing to give this a shot. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
