This is fixed in TexMaths 0.52.2, please upgrade!
OK, nice! Thanks for the feedback.
OK, thanks for these data. It really helped. I was able to reproduce the problem in Windows 10 and you can find as an attachment a pre-version that fixes the issue. FYI, there was two symbol names that were identical on a case insensitive system like Windows (Diamond.svg and diamond.svg). And there was recently a commit in LibreOffice that prevent this to work, so the trouble...
Strange! I'll test it in Windows. For sure, you don't need cygwin!
Hi, what system do you use? I tried this morning in Ubuntu 24.04 with LibreOffice 24.2.4.2 and updating TexMaths (0.52 => 0.52 .1) from the extensions menu worked as expected.
OK, I reproduced the bug and I fixed it. The fix will be included in the next release. Thanks for the bug report and many thanks for the donation!
OK thanks. I reproduced the bug.
Hi Dana, this works for me in Ubuntu 22.04 with Xfe 1.46.2. What is your system and Xfe version ? Thanks.

Yes, I confirm that TexMaths can't be used if LibreOffice is installed as a snap or flatpak package. This is because in that case LateX programs can't be launched from LibreOffice.
Ok, thanks. I tested with Windows 10 22H2 64 bits, LibreOffice 7.6.7.2 (last production version, 64 bits, fresh profile), MikTeX 24.1 (64 bits) and TexMaths 0.52 and everything works as expected. No error message. Equation well compiled and displayed. So, here are some ideas: - perhaps you have an older Windows 10 version? - perhaps some security software you installed prevents execution of latex.exe? - could you try to update your LibreOffice version? - are you sure you tested with a fresh LibreOffice...

OK, thanks! Could you try with a fresh LibreOffice profile? Please make a backup of your profile before deleting it. You also need to reinstall TexMaths in that case. Also, be sure you don't have some accented character (é, à, ù, è, etc.) in your user name.

Hi, what are: your Windows version? your LaTeX version? your TexMaths version ? Could you post a screenshot of the error message? Thanks.
Hi, what LaTeX system do you use?
Oh yes, you did it right. I've released this new version today.
Oh yes, you did it right. I'll release that new version soon.
In fact, version 0.52.1 has not been officially released yet, because there are some issues with it in recent versions of LibreOffice. I was waiting for fixes from the LO team, but its'not ready. However, I'm a bit surprised: where did you get the 0.52.1 version?
Hi, I tested both examples in Ubuntu 22.04.4 (texlive 2021.20220204-1) with LibreOffice 24.2.4.2 and TexMaths 0.52.1. Equations rendering is as expected (your first drawing). So perhaps it is an issue with your LaTeX compiler in Windows? \begin{tikzcd} N & A \arrow[from=1-2, to=1-1] \end{tikzcd} and \begin{tikzcd} N & A \arrow[l] \end{tikzcd} with LaTeX preamble: \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{tikz-cd}

OK, I'glad to see it works now! Happy TexMaths'ing...
OK, thanks for the tests. I have the same system and LibreOffice version as you and it works without such an issue, so this puzzles me. So let's try to dig again. Your system uses either Wayland (new way) or Xorg (old way) to display windows and widgets. To check your session type, please do (in a terminal, as a normal user): echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE You should get either an X11 or Wayland answer. X11 means Xorg. I think you moved the user directory inside ~/.config/libreoffice, am I right? It's safer...
Did you install LibreOffice as a snap package? Do you use Wayland or Xorg? Ccould you try with fresh LibreOffice profile? See here: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile
Hi, what is your version of Ubuntu? Did you install LibreOffice as a snap package? Do you use Wayland or Xorg? And, could you try with fresh LibreOffice profile? See here: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile Thanks.

Keybindings unexpected behavior
configure file error
"Search files and folders" window doesn't honor the "Use trash can for file deletion" setting
This bug is fixed in version 1.46.2.
OK, I can reproduce the bug. Thanks!
Hi, could you comment out the line in fstab, reboot and see if Xfe still starts slowly? Thanks. RB
Hi, you're right, there are errors in the website and extension site. TexMaths 0.52 requires at least LibreOffice 7.4. I strongly advice you to update to the latest LibreOffice version (24.2.2). You can use a ppa for that (https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/ppa) or wait until Ubuntu 24.04.
To compile Xfe, you need stable FOX 1.6.x not devel 1.7.x.
Hi, your config.log says: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11: No such file or directory so you probably didn't install X11 development libraries. You also need the FOX toolkit and some other dependencies.
No problem. I'll test too. What is the problematic TexLive version (and system)?
Hi, this is indeed a nice Excel add-in. However, I don't think TexMaths users really need this. Maybe I'm wrong. Anyway, developing such features would be a huge task...
No problem. Glad to see you managed it!
Hi, you can add a custom script for that. Please look at the documentation here: http://roland65.free.fr/xfe/index.php?page=docs. It's easy to do. Note that the new release now has native support for Zstd archives. These are very fast and compact.
-Wlto-type-mismatch warning
Hi, thanks for the report. The bug has been fixed in Xfe 1.46.1.
Hi, this bug should be fixed in Xfe 1.46. Could you check? Thanks.
Hi, I can't reproduce the issue with Xfe 1.46. Could you give me some test case?
Ok, could you try with the attached version?
Yes, but obviously the Document Foundation does not have the resources of Microsoft and we can understand that improving macros is not its priority.
I don't think they will do something like this. The UNO part of LibreOffice does not evolve anymore these days. A solution would be to completely rewrite the UI part of TexMaths using some graphics toolkit (GTK? Qt?) but of course this would require a lot of work and skills that I don't have.
Yes, rename oxt files to zip and extract. But its simpler to use the LibreOffice basic editor to modify TexMaths.
Hi, I fully agree with you that TexMaths lacks syntax highlighting. However, due to limitations in LibreOffice UNO text widget (the one used in the TexMaths dialog), it is not possible to apply some text formatting (color, bold, italic, etc.) to the equation text.
Hi, nice to hear it works now!
Ok, thanks for these informations. First, the LaTeX code for your equation is not correct. The correct code is: \left[ x(t) = A(t) \times \cos (\omega t ) \right] ('times' instead of 'time' and '\cos' instead of 'cos'). Then, the output of the latex command should be something like this: This is pdfTeX, Version 3.141592653-2.6-1.40.22 (TeX Live 2022/dev/Debian) (preloaded format=latex) restricted \write18 enabled. entering extended mode (./tmpfile.tex LaTeX2e <2021-11-15> patch level 1 L3 programming...
Sorry, I was not clear: the command I gave you was for test purpose. Did it work? Could you send me a screenshot of your TexMaths configuration?
Hi, this sounds like your system uses pdftex instead of latex for compiling. Could you try this: cd ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/TexMaths/tmp latex tmpfile.tex This should compile the last entered equation and give a valid tmpfile.dvi.
XFW cannot create files
Hi, this bug was fixed in version 1.45. Please upgrade...
Hi, perhaps your TexMaths installation (missing file which.bat) or your LibreOffice profile is corrupted. I suggest you start with a fresh LibreOffice profile and then install TexMaths.

So I close this bug...
Problems opening files from search results list
OK, thanks for the patch. The bug is fixed in Xfe 1.46.
Root not working
I tested the root mode in Ubuntu 23.10 and Fedora 39 and it works as expected (using pkexec authentication). So I close the bug for now.
Ctrl-L doesn't work anymore since 1.45
This is fixed in Xfe 1.46.
xfw window disappears after choosing recent files
This is fixed in Xfe 1.46. Thanks!
Icon path doesn't exist, icon theme was set back to default. Please check you icon path
OK, since it works for you now, I close the bug.
Failure to run bash shell programs
Hi, shell scripts are not executed when the option "Don't execute script files" is selected. This is just the option below "Notify when applications startup", so probably you selected the wrong option.
Xfw crashes selecting a font
This bug has been fixed in Xfe 1.46.
OK, I see: to fix a problem with dashed lines appearing as solid lines when using tikz, I apply a workaround (export to EMF instead of SVG). But this workaround does not work in your case and the rendered image is corrupted. An easy fix is to add the line: fixDashedLines = FALSE at line 630 of the TexMathsTools module (in function ImportGraphicIntoClipboard). However, you will have solid dashed lines when using tikz... For now, I cannot offer a complete solution to the problems encountered with the...
Hi, your LaTeX code snippet seems incomplete or wrong... Could you post the correct code? Thanks.
OK, I see. The problem arises because Xfe uses its own implementation of the strlcpy() function and this function is now part of the glibc since 2.38. The strlcpy() used in Xfe needs a +1 in the size of the destination string, while the strlcpy() from glibc does not. I'll fix the issue and release a new version in the next days.
Thanks for the report and the patch. I think the problem is related to the glibc version you have. Do you have glibc version 2.38 or above?
I reported the problem to the LO team. I also discovered that the problem is related to gtk3 rendering. If you launch Impress like this (with qt5 rendering, in Linux), then it is fast: SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=qt5 /opt/libreoffice7.6/program/simpress
