Description madbop 2005-08-15 13:22:14 UTC

The OOo 2.0 formula eeditor does not provide autowrapping features for formulae
whatsoever. Only the newline character is provided, but also this lacks proper
idention for wrapped equations.
Multiple problems appear due to this fact (e.g. oversized formula frames or ugly
prettyprinting).
Most of the MathML2.0 engines support formula wrapping and this could be
implemented into OOo, like suggested in:
http://www.mathmlconference.org/2002/presentations/smirnova/#5.1
or Appendix B of: http://www.cs.unibo.it/~lpadovan/phd_thesis/main.pdf

As an intermediate approach only +,-,* terms could be automatically broken,
wrapped and idented.
