Equations no longer center correctly in a table created in Word
Hello,
Since a Word update (November or December 2022), the mathematical formulas created in a table no longer center correctly. There is a slight and annoying shift to the left as soon as I use the equation editor, while this is not the case for normal text at all. I didn't have this problem before.
Has anyone ever encountered this problem and been able to solve it?
Here is a screenshot of the problem...
I have already called Microsoft's online chat, but the technician was unable to solve the problem. He made me do a lot of manipulations that were ultimately useless.
Thank you in advance for your help. I'm on an iMac M1 with MacOS Ventura 13.1 and I use Word 2019 for Mac, version 16.69.

- I have the same problem after I update my word 365, It is the bug of new version.
I agree with Doug that a sample with the problem would help.
You can save to a cloud location and post a share link here.
I suspect that the paragraph formatting inside the cell includes a left indent or left cell padding.
