Bug#479459: not possible to use *-+/# as superscript in a formula in oomath
Package: openoffice.org-math
Version: 1:2.4.0-5
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/oomath
Hey,
I'm trying to set a * as superscript in a formula (this is needed often
in chemistry documents) but I'm failing always. Since this is very
important for chemists I'll set this report to "normal". This is
probably a upstream bug, as I have not enough capazity on my system I'm
unable to test with original upstream packages, sorry.
The error is quite easy to reproduce:
Try to set %my_1^* and you'll end up with an questionmark instead of a
star in the superscript.
Greetings
Winnie
