[Bug 833701] Re: math objects inherit automatic font color

 

Fritz Heinrichmeyer, thank you for taking the time to report this and
helping to make Ubuntu better. Examining the information you have given
us, this does not appear to be a bug report so we are closing it and
converting it to a question in the support tracker. We understand the
difficulties you are facing, but it is better to raise problems you are
having in the support tracker at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu if
you are uncertain if they are bugs. You can also find a valid support at
http://askubuntu.com or posting your question in the support forum of
your local Ubuntu's community. For help on reporting bugs, see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs.

Regarding your comments:

+ "automatic font color controls presentation of text in libreoffice.
Unfortunately it also determines the default color of math objects."

This is as designed.

+" If this color is i.e. "dark grey" black and white printers dither and
small characters are therefore disturbed."

The print quality of your Math objects are dependent on your printer
quality settings and capabilities.

+ "I found no gui for changing default math object colors."

The way to change the default color for Math objects is Tools -> Options
-> LibreOffice -> Appearance -> under General change the Font Color
Color Setting drop down from Automatic to whatever color you desire.

** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Invalid

Title:
  math objects inherit automatic font color

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  automatic font color controls presentation of text in libreoffice.
  Unfortunately it also determines the default color of math objects. If
  this color is i.e. "dark grey" black and white printers dither and
  small characters are therefore disturbed.

  I found no gui for changing default math object colors.  Maybe gui color theme should not influence document colors at all.
