Thank you, Matt and Uwe, as far as I can see in the ams-doc, Table 3.1: .../tetex/doc/latex/amsmath/amsldoc.dvi or in Uwe's helful paper, 18.2.1 and 18.2.2: http://wiki.lyx.org/uploads/LyX/LyXMathebefehle/LyXMathebefehle.pdf the align-environment is the right one for the following layout: \hfill {x1=y1} \hfill {x2=y2} \hfill and the alignat-environment is the right one for a layout like: \hfill {x1=y1} \hspace{3cm} {x2=y2} \hfill Kind regards - bernhard -- http://www.mb-schiekel.de/ GPG-Key available: GnuPG-1.4.0
