Subject: 28.0.50; Org-mode does not Render Sub- and Superscripts in text
 with italics
Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2020 13:25:43 +0200

As title says, when in org-mode, sub- and superscripts are not rendered pretty
when italics property is also specified (togeteher with
org-toggle-pretty-entities). There is a SX question about 3 years old on
same subject:

https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/31149/superscript-or-subscript-inside-italics-in-org-buffer-does-not-change-text-app

but anything said there seem to help.

Steps to reproduce:

1. start Emacs with -Q
2. C-x C-f test.org
3. Enter expresion: (f^*,(LAMBDA,(x_1^*,...,x_n^*),e^*))
4. C-c C-x \ to activate pretty-printing of symbols
   Subscripts and superscripts are now rendered nicely and properly.

5. Surround the expression with '/': /(f^*,(LAMBDA,(x_1^*,...,x_n^*),e^*))/
   The text will not be italicized unless there is a space and *something*
   before last '/', for example: /(f^*,(LAMBDA,(x_1^*,...,x_n^*),e^*)) ./
   Text is now rendered in italics, but sub- and superscripts are
   rendered as plain text, not as utf8.

Yes, I can confirm the bug with latest Org from master.

In general, the interaction between `org-pretty-entities' and
`org-use-sub-superscripts' needs to be cleaned up.

I don't have time for this at the moment, but if you want to get more
familiar with this part of the code and help us, please go ahead.

Thanks,

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I would definitely love to, but I am not sure I am able too. I am affraid I am not very familiar with org code base and I also have lots in my life at the moment unfortunately.

But thanks for the response.
Best regards
