Description hwfa 2008-08-10 18:44:52 UTC
1. Create a new Writer document.
2. Type a few words, for example "This is a formula: "
3. Insert a formula (Insert>Object>Formula), for example "dy over dx = f(x)y "
4. Type some more words, for example "to illustrate this problem"
5. Turn on Change Recording (Edit>Changes>Record) & ensure the Show option is
ticked/checked.
6. Select the last word before the formula, the formula and the first word after
the formula, in our example "formula: <the formula itself> to". Delete the
selection. The deleted *words* will be struck through, the formula won't be.
7. Save the document.

At this point we see the bug: the formula itself disappears and the "text" of
the formula changes to "Object 2" in a box. This text is topped by an icon that
looks like a glass of champagne at about 45 degrees. The formula itself is *not*
recoverable even after rejecting all changes (Edit>Changes>Accept or
Reject>Reject All).

I checked with "2.4.1  Multilingual version German UI WIN XP:
[680m17(Build9310)]"  and can confirm the reported effect.
Same with with "Ooo-dev 3.0.0 Beta Multilingual version German UI WIN XP:
[300m29 (Build9339)]" .

MRU->AMA: as described, when deleting a text (used redlining) containing an OLE
object (tested with Math and Chart), the object will be broken after saving the
document.

Due to our workload and resources (development as well as QA) I've to retarget
this issue to OOo3.2.
