FormulaOnMultipleLinesCategories: Math mode << | Page list | >>Illustration of how you can enter a formula on two or more lines
The purpose of this example is to illustrate how you can enter a formula like this: which on this page will be written as below: F = a + b + c + d + e + f + g + h + i + j + l + m + n + o
Instructions
where ' | ' indicates the position of the cursor.
Note that the cursor has moved and the space around the equal sign has increased. You have actually changed into a new math-mode where you can enter equations over several lines.
F = a + b + c + d + e + f + g + h + i +|
F = a + b + c + d + e + f + g + h + i + |
CommentsIf you have an object that is within big brackets and it needs to span two lines, e.g. something like this: F = (a+b+c+d+e+ f+g+h+i+j+k)^^2^^ Then, you could use the math-panel to insert a special pair of brackets. On the upper line, you insert a pair of brackets where the right side is empty, and on the lower line you insert a pair of brackets where the left side is empty. The result would look like this:
One solution is to insert a \vphantom{} like this which amounts to making the parenthesis big enoug to cover an 'A' on both lines. See FAQ.Unsorted#phantom for some more information. Related material
