LyX ⇒ align equations

[sc092270]

I am trying to align equations. I want the equal signs to be aligned. This is not a problem. However, every time I do this it shows up as a display formula. I do not want it centered. I want an inline formula with the equal signs aligned. Also I would like to put an explanation of each step to the right of each equation and have the explanations aligned. Just like in math textbooks. Is this possible. I have tried several different things with no success. Thanks in advance for any help.

You can use the aligned environment also in in-line math expressions.

Code: Select all

\(
  \begin{aligned}
    % math expressions with explanations
  \end{aligned}
\)

Another way to prevent the equations from being centered is to use the flalign environment.
