Thanks a lot Lorinda.
Can I conclude that you "love NeoOffice Math"?

Actually, I've never used it, except maybe once or twice to test something in a article you wrote and I was polishing.
Had Neo been around when I was taking Calculus or Matrices and Linear Algebra, my answer might be different.

So many new things to learn, so little time.... |

Dear Jacqueline, there is something "wrong" (probably not the exact word) in your article, about the use of ~.
Since characters are proportional, using ~ is doesn't assure the exact position. In fact in the first formula you have written | Code: | | left lbrace binom{a+b+c+d=f+g}{alignr h+k=i{~~~~} } right none |
equals (=) are not aligned.
This depend on the space occupied by ~ sign.
It's possible to arrive to a more precise alignment using a combination of ~ and {}. {} is a smaller space than ~, so, for example, using
| Code: | | left lbrace binom{a+b+c+d=f+g}{alignr h+k=i {~~~~}{}{} } right none |
permit a better (in my opinion) alignment.
I also don't understand the reason of the first formula in the second table | Code: | | a+b+c{~~~} newline a-b+c-d |
If you go to Format ->alignment and choose left, you don't need any ~ sign.
Valter
p.s.: I've translated your article in italian |

Corrections are done in French and English versions. I uploaded two new versions of Alignment1.png and Alignment9.png.
I removed the first formula in the second table.
The last formula in this table is sligthly changed too for a better alignment.
Thanks again.
Jacqueline

I think I might use "Certain" instead of "Some" in the English page's title.  Dunno, it sounds better to me for a reason I can't quite put my finder on....

I suspect your English is better than mine
I'll rename the English page as you are suggesting
