I recently purged Libreoffice because it was buggy.
I then reinstalled the latest version from apt
and now it's missing the symbols above the equation editor.
Here is the current Texmaths equation editor:
There used to be shortcuts for latex including frac{}{}
and various set theory operations, as well as the binomial distribution on the top of the window.
What happened to them and how do I get them back? I just figured that they were in some package and installed all packages useing sudo apt install libreoffice*
, but this didn't help after I refreshed the program.
EDIT 0: I'm using Kubuntu 19.04

You have to remove packaged TexMaths 0.43-2 and install newest instead with the steps below:
Remove the
libreoffice-texmaths
packageRemove configuration folder
Download latest version from TexMaths site, save TexMaths-0.46.1.oxt file.
Open downloaded TexMaths-0.46.1.oxt file in LibreOffice and confirm its installation.
Restart LibreOffice Writer, click to add new equation:
Note: packaged version do not have buttons in all Ubuntu releases, so I reported bug 1828433.
