Diagonal Fractions? [closed]

I worked out a clunky workaround.
size +5 {{}^1 / {}_6}
Will give a passable diagonal fraction.
Please consider filing an enhancement bug. Thanks!
What kinds of diagonal fractions are we talking about?
Unicode has a lot of glyphs (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_Forms) for basic fractions, so I wonder if you could just do a simple search-and-replace... maybe even run that as a macro...
I do a lot of math worksheets so sometimes I might need something like 3/16 or x/5.
It would be a nice feature addition, something like a "compact" or "in-line" format option, I agree (something like the two different LaTeX equation types). I don't know how hard that is though.
For now, I keep using TexMath for equations (but I know LaTeX syntax already, and am used to the way the equations turn out); if only that could create something more than a picture. It is much more complex than what Libreoffice Math can do, so using the output of that with Math seems unlikely to be easier than adding an option for diagonal fractions.
