[Solved] Issue with Inserting Formulas

[saleem145]

Hello,

I am using writer to type a paper. I go to the Insert Menu, Object and Formula. The panel at the bottom of the window shows up and I can type in the formula. But the dialog box which has all the options is not showing up??

Thanks,

Saleem

With the cursor in the area where you type the formula, select the menu View -> Elements. Does that do what you want?

How do I get a left curly brace only -- I want a formula with two lines -- something if a is true, something else otherwise...

Something like this :

newline_with_brace.jpg (7.68 KiB) Viewed 6341 times

Code: Select all

alignl left lbrace something  right none newline left none something else right rbrace

Or this :

newline_with_brace2.jpg (7.49 KiB) Viewed 6340 times

Code: Select all

alignl left lbrace matrix { something ## something else } right none

"Right none" should do the trick....thanks.
