      19.171 draw:formula

      The draw:formula attribute specifies an equation that should be used to evaluate a value.

      The value of a draw:formula attribute can have one of the following parameters:

      • A "?" (U+003F, QUESTION MARK) is used to mark the beginning of a formula name. The result of the <draw:equation> element's draw:formula attribute whose draw:name 19.197 attribute is the formula name used as the value.
      • If ”$” (U+0024, DOLLAR SIGN) precedes an integer value, the value indexes a draw:modifiers 19.196 attribute. The corresponding modifier value is used as the parameter value.

      Description

      There are 4 places in ODF 1.1 section 9.5 where a "$" parameter modifier is explained with the following text:

      • If "$" is preceding a integer value, the value is a indexing a draw:modifiers attribute. The corresponding modifier value is used as parameter value then.

      This language was corrected in ODF 1.2. In ODF 1.0 Errata 01 (and IS 26300:2006) there were partial corrections to only some of the 4 occurrences.

      The inconsistent and incomplete correction was detected in WG6 review of IS 26300:2006/COR1/COR2/AMD1.
