------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Oct 26 19:02:57 -0700 2005 ------- When I enter "%delta h" into the formula editor, the spacing between the delta and the h is too wide. When I enter "%delta %delta hh", the spacing between the two h's is not too wide but the spacing between the two deltas, and the spacing between the delta and the h is wide. This can be improved by decreasing Format->Spacing to 0%, but the improvement is only slight. I also see this in OO 1.1.3 on FC3 (Linux). I believe this is because in Formula editor, greek letters are treated as special symbols. The fact that the user can define additional special symbols makes me think that kerning is not used at all for special symbols. Both TeX/LaTeX and Word have the correct behavior in this case. The behavior of OpenOffice is such that it changes the mathematical meaning of the expression. If there is no easy way to fix this, then at least allow the user to fine-tune the spacing with something like a "negative gap". -Nick --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
