Hi Otared, I apologize for not explaining it better. Maybe the below example will illustrate better what I’m trying to achieve. - The first formula is perfectly aligned. - The bottom three formulas do not line up with the top formula I’m trying to align all formulas regardless of the amount of text added to the left of the formula. Of course I could add \qquad or \quad to try and manually align but basically I’m interested to know if a fool proof method exist that aligns all without using \\qquad or \quad \starttext % Mid-aligned formula \startformula E = mc^2 \stopformula \setupformulas[align=flushleft] \startformula \startalign[n=3,align={left,middle}] \NC \text{Text1} \NC \qquad \NC E = mc^2 \NR \NC \text{This is an explanation} \NC \qquad \NC E = mc^2 \NR \NC \text{This is a longer explanation} \NC \qquad \NC E = mc^2 \NR \stopalign \stopformula \stoptext Thanks JW

Thanks for the (very quick) reply.
I’ve experiemented with that solution as well. However, the text can vary in length and this would required a lot of tweaking to try and get the formulas mid-aligned. I’m trying to find a fool proof solution that will get the formula mid-aligned in all cases (and hope it exists).
In any case, thanks for your suggestion!

You can specify a certain horizontal distance in the second column, as in the following:
%%% begin example.tex \starttext
\setupformulas[align=flushleft] \startformula \startalign[n=2,align={left,middle}] \NC \text{Text1} \NC\qquad E = mc^2 \NR \NC \text{Text2} \NC\qquad E = mc^2 \NR \NC \text{Text2} \NC\hskip 3cm E = mc^2 \NR \stopalign \stopformula
\stoptext %%% end example.tex

wrote: Dear list,
I would like to include text on the same line as a formula. The text needs to be left-aligned and the formula needs to be mid-aligned (as per normal).
I’ve tried various solutions from the mathalign MyWay but have not succeeded to get the desired result sofar. Below a M-Not-WE. Clearly, the formula is not positioned correctly yet.
Who can help me out?
