Georg. Here's what I would like: f(x) = 1+2+3 g(x,y) = 4+5
Here's what Lyx's version of the AMS align gives me if I use *3* columns (in the dvi previewer so i'm pretty sure its what would get printed): f(x) = 1+2+3 g(x,y) = 4+5 I can get it to not right justify the stuff after the = sign by using *2* columns and perhaps that is why the default align does only bring up two columns. However, the left hand side is still right justified. I can get exactly what I want using eqnarray, but I read somewhere that align is prefered to eqnarray. Unf. from what I can tell, Lyx's implementation of AMS align is doing something odd. cheers ----- Original Message ----- From: "Georg Baum" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <lyx-users@lists.lyx.org> Sent: Sunday, June 05, 2005 7:48 AM Subject: Re: The AMS align environment > Am Samstag, 4.
