Awesome! Thanks !
What about the other question? How to set the line spacing as one thing in
chapter and section titles and another thing in body text?

Alex,

Try the \vphantom command inside the parenthesis/braces, for example:

\begin{multline*}
\left(\vphantom{\int_{a}^{b}f\left(x\right)g\left(x-x_{0}\right)dx} 
\int_{a}^{b}f\left(x\right)\right.\\
\left.\vphantom{\int_{a}^{b}f\left(x\right)g\left(x-x_{0}\right)dx}g 
\left(x-x_{0}\right)dx\right)\end{multline*}

\vphantom should contain the entire equation, which will not show, but  
will guarantee that the parentheses/braces will be sized for the  
entire content, not just the first line or second line of the equation.
