brk (Break)

This element specifies whether there is a line break at the start of a run, or at the start of the Box function, such that the line wraps at the start of the run or function. If this element is omitted, a manual break is not inserted. The line may happen to wrap at this point if the equation exceeds the column width. [Example:The following example includes a manual line break at the operator emulator:

 

<m:r>
<m:t>a</m:t>
</m:r>

<m:box>
<m:boxPr>
<m:opEmu   m:val="on"/>
<m:brk/>
</m:boxPr>

<m:e>
<m:r>
<m:t>==</m:t>
</m:r>
</m:e>
</m:box>

<m:r>
<m:t>b</m:t>
</m:r>

end example]

Attributes

Description

alnAt (Index of Operator to Align To)

Specifies the index of the operator on the previous line which shall be used as the alignment point for the current line. A line can be aligned to any operator on the previous line in the equation; this attribute specifies exactly which operator shall be the target of that alignment in cases where there are multiple operators.

 

[Example: For example, consider the break in this equation:


 

The second line could theoretically be aligned to any of the four operators in the previous line.

 

Specifying an alnAt value of 3 for the second line resolves this ambiguity; the second line is aligned to the third operator in the previous line. end example]

 

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_Integer255 simple type7.1.3.6).
