TL->BH: Enhancement. Please take over. Thanks! An alternative solution... http://fr.openoffice.org/Documentation/Outils/AddonTailleFormule1.zip Short french description: http://fr.openoffice.org/Documentation/Outils/index.html (This add-on tool in included in Dmaths, a GPL add-on to OOo: http://www.dmaths.org ) I strongly support Regina's idea. Sometimes I have a document with dozens of formulae and like to change the document's overall text size. Currently this would mean changing the font size for every singly formula separately, wouldn't it? This suggestion would REALLY simplify such task. PS: Can anybody translate to English/German what exactly this TailleFormule addon does? This is a good suggestion. I prefer having formulae slighty bigger than the text, so that I suggest the formulae base size could depend on the text base size through a user-defined coefficient. Similarly, I'd like the formula fonts to be possibly inherited from the text one. > so that I suggest the formulae base size could depend on the text base size

... which brings me to the idea of having formula templates, equal to paragraph
or text templates.
Such a formula template could define:
- Font sizes e.g.:
- base size, usually 100% of paragraph text size, or 120% for "umr5174" ;-)
- indices size, usually 60% of base size and so on ...
- Overall Formula fonts and color
- positioning and anchoring (as f.e. "as character", "to paragraph")
- insets (2 mm left, 2 mm right to text)
- other things, e.g formula borders and background color (I think someone else
suggested this in another issue.)
Advantages:
1.) It would be possible to create formula templates, e g. for separate vs.
in-text formulae or for formulae within a table (having smaller fonts).
2.) Changing a formula from in-text to separate would require only one-two
clicks in the stylist.
3.) Changing one of the templates would correct sizes etc. for all such formulae
in the whole document.
Anyway, this would improve usebility a lot and would also solve Regina's problem
- if sizes relative to the paragraph text size are supported.
Should I open another issue for this suggestion?
OS set to All.
