brkBin (Break on Binary Operators)

This element specifies how binary operators are treated when they coincide with a line break. If this element is omitted, the line break occurs before the binary operator. That is, the binary operator is the first element on the wrapped line. [Example: For example:

The XML below demonstrates brkBin in use under mathPr:

<m:mathPr>
<m:mathFont m:val="Cambria Math"/>
<m:brkBin m:val="before"/>
<m:brkBinSub m:val="--"/>
<m:smallFrac m:val="off"/>
<m:dispDef/>

<m:lMargin m:val="0"/>
<m:rMargin m:val="0"/>
<m:defJc m:val="centerGroup"/>
<m:wrapIndent m:val="1440"/>
<m:intLim m:val="subSup"/>
<m:naryLim m:val="undOvr"/>
</m:mathPr>
