--- Comment #21 from Justin L <jluth at mail.com> ---
Assuming that the relative fontsize remains at the default of 58%, raising by
33% should be mathematically perfect (slightly dependent on the font used). A
higher value will cut into the preceding line - creating a larger gap. 
(subscript example: attachment 101314)

After watching the screencast from comment 6, I expect there are layout or
other bugs happening here. I get inconsistent results when I test this (same as
comment 14)...

Comment 5 is correct. Format-character REMEMBERS the last settings that YOU
ENTERED into that field. That is why nobody could replicate your 66%. On a
clean user profile, Format-Character will use DFLT_ESC_SUPER which is 33%.

Your 33% example was a subscript, not a superscript. "Automatic" calculates 8%
for a subscript - but it is 33% for a superscript. I changed DFLT_ESC_SUB back
to 8% for LO 7.0.  (see bug 80194)

"Automatic" had terrible calculations in editeng (Draw/Impress/Writer
textboxes), especially for subscripts. (again, see bug 80194).

Hopefully with bug 80194's fixes automatic now SHOULD look fine. For a patch to
set automatic with .uno::SupserScript, see
