[NTG-context] Align a compound inequality

2006-01-20 Thread David Arnold

All,

I have:

\placeformula[-]
\startformula
  \startalign[m=2]
3-2x-1  3-2x1\\
 -2x-4   -2x-2\\
   x2  x1
  \stopalign
\stopformula

And it works. However, I want to sqeeze the word or between the  
inequalities on the first row so that it reads:


3 - 2x  -1  or  3 - 2x  1

How can I do this?

I am not sure what m and n are meant to do with this code. Hans said  
n=n_of_columns and m=n_of_pairs, but I am not sure what these mean as  
relates to my problem above.


Ideas?

This is how I would do this,

\startformula \startalign[n=5,align={right,left,middle,right,left}]
 3 - 2x   -1  \quad \text{or} \quad  3-2x   1 \\
 -2x   -4  \text{or}  -2x  -2 \\
\stopalign \stopformula

Aditya,

Thanks, and I am getting this to work, which is similar to the way  
the align macros from the AMS work:


\placeformula[eq:twosolve]
\startformula
  \startalign[m=3]
3-2x-1 \qor 3-2x1\\
 -2x-4   -2x-2\\
   x2  x1
  \stopalign
\stopformula

macros from the AMS work:


Keep in mind Hans comment in math-ext
   % amstex compatibility mode: (ugly)
I kinda agree. Look at the example in the source for using \NC \NC \NR 
instead of  .. \\. That gives you more flexibility in using labels 
and numbering for for specific equations.





\placeformula[eq:twosolve]
\startformula
\startalign[m=3]
  3-2x-1 \qor 3-2x1\\
   -2x-4   -2x-2\\
 x2  x1
\stopalign
\stopformula
