|
|
From http://www.oooforum.org/forum/posting.php?mode=quote&p=2559
It seems that oomath is bombing out on a certain formula I wrote.
This also happens when I'm embedding the formula in a text document.
Thanks to some help, I now know what the problem is, but I cannot see what is wrong here.
What I did is then retype the whole formula in oomath and save it. When I open it again oomath hangs.
Here is the formula:
| Code: |
func lim csub{x toward infinity}{{alignc 2 - func sin x} over {alignc x^3+3}} newline
"For all " x " it holds that " newline
matrix {
alignr -1 #{}<={} #alignc func sin x #{}>={} # 1 ##
alignr 1 # {} >= {} #alignc func -sin x #{}>={}# -1 ##
alignr 3 # {} >= {} #alignc 2 - func sin x #{}<={}# 1 ##
alignr {alignc 3}over{x^3+3} # {} >={} #{alignc 2 - func sin x}over{alignc x^3 + 3}#{}<={}#{alignc 1}over{x^3+3}
}

| Strange indeed. I can past your formula in a Math object, everything looks OK. then I close the doc, I reopen and Bang, gone is OOo.This is definitely an 'issue', worth exploring by the technies out there. |

| It is the Matrix part of your formula that is causing the problem. Anyway, for what you wanted to to you could have worked with a table or tab settings, filling in each element with a separate formula object. The formula did not crash OOo anymore when I removed all the alignclausules you used. They are not needed anyway. Good luck! |

Oddly enough, that actually gives me another idea. I have to check something first but I'll keep you all posted. Might be interesting for everyone.

| Well! I just never new you could use 'newline' like that to make a new line. Guess I've still got a lot to learn about the possibilities of Math. I sure do which there was a reference of all of its features .... |

| Strange indeed... I'm using the latest OOo version, 1.1. It didn't crash. I've saved the code with Math. I've created a text document and inserted the formula. Didn't crash either. I sincerely hope you've solved it by now... |

There is a reference. Go the the help index under and you'll see a refernece... It has every command. It's all you need to use Math after you study mathematics for a while.
It's in the Wellcome to OpenOffice.org Math page (Help system), third link, called: "Reference" |
