             Bug #: 44902
           Summary: Make it easier to align equations on a particular
                    character (especially equal sign)
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Formula Editor
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


According to the LibreOffice Math Guide, Math does not have a command for
aligning equations on a particular character, but
you have to use a matrix to do it. This is not very easy, the code becomes
confusing, and it does not work well with the graphical editor. 

I think a simple command (similar to alignc) with which you can mark the
character on which the lines should be aligned should be introduced. (I don't
know whether there is a command defined in ODF.)

So instead of

matrix{
alignr x+y # {}={} # alignl 2 ##
alignr x # {}={} # alignl 2-y
}

one could write

x+y alignhere(=) 2 newline
x alignhere(=) 2-y

(or the like)
