Microsoft Equation subscript not working as normal












0














So I've been using Microsoft Equation Editor for the past 3 months or so, and all of a sudden I'm getting a different result when I want a subscript. For example, if I want to get Dmin, I type "D_min".
Previously I got this result:
D_min_correct



But now when I type that, I get the following:
D_min_incorrect



If I want to get it to show up the correct way, I have to force it to "professional" view.
How can I make this go back to working the way it did?

This has to do with whether or not min is listed as a "recognised function".



You get the first behavior you list (where min is subscripted) if it is not listed as a function.



You get the second behaviour if min is listed as a recognised function. I believe min is listed by default.



Perhaps min has been "re-listed" as a result of an update or an Office repair.



A button in the Math Autocorrect dialog box leads to a further dialog where you can maintain this list.
