From: ralf.schaa on 31 Jan 2010 21:15 Hi group, I'd like to change the size of a single bracket in an equation - how can I achieve this? For example, in Latex I could do something like this: F\biggr|_{a} , where biggrl gives me a large sized "|" ... Cheers -Ralf
From: ralf.schaa on 31 Jan 2010 21:30 as a work-around I came up with a trick: I used a single Matrix column with 3 rows - inserted the single "|" on the right-hand side - I put the actual equation in the centre of the matrix field and the other matrix fields I left empty ... the result looks pleasing Cheers -Ralf On Feb 1, 1:15 pm, "ralf.schaa" <ralf.sc...(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi group, > > I'd like to change the size of a single bracket in an equation - how > can I achieve this? > > For example, in Latex I could do something like this: > > F\biggr|_{a} , where biggrl gives me a large sized "|" ... > > Cheers > -Ralf

You can select the part of the equation you want to have bigger/larger, then select 'Normal Text' from the Equations 'Design' tab and change the font size on the 'Home' tab. There are two things to consider here, in case of brackets, it might select everything up to the corresponding open/close bracket. In such a case you will have to ensure that they don't act as balanced brackets. Also, changing the size of parts inside an equation can result in growing surrounding brackets.
