How to add new attributes to Math
Posted: Thu Dec 20, 2007 6:38 pm
I'm a math teacher using OpenOffice as my primary word processor, and one of my primary uses is in writing tests and assignments. So I use OpenOffice Math a lot. One thing that I really need is an "arc" and "widearc" attribute for text. (Sort of an upside down breve.) I often have to specify things like "arc AB" or "arc XYZ" in my geometry class, and I've been resorting to constructions like "widehat AB" or "widehat XYZ" to approximate the correct symbol, but this gets confusing for high school students.
Does this attribute already exist, by chance, and I've just missed it?
If it doesn't exist, how/where can I officially suggest this feature to developers?
I know that you can add new symbols to OpenOffice Math using the Catalog. Is it possible to add new attributes in the same way?
Thanks for the help.
