Hi, Does anyone have a suggestion to generate a better result for the symmetry specification: \starttext ${2\over a}{2\over b}{2\over m}$ \stoptext I tried: \starttext ${2\over \vphantom{b}a}{2\over \vphantom{b}b}{2\over \vphantom{b}m}$ \stoptext but this leaves too much vertical space - compare it to: \starttext ${2\over \vphantom{b}a}{2\over b}{2\over \vphantom{b}m}$ \stoptext Can this be a bug in ConTeXt math spacing?

Alan BRASLAU mailto:alan.braslau@cea.fr 4. November 2015 um 17:50 Hi,
Does anyone have a suggestion to generate a better result for the symmetry specification:
\starttext ${2\over a}{2\over b}{2\over m}$ \stoptext
I tried:
\starttext ${2\over \vphantom{b}a}{2\over \vphantom{b}b}{2\over \vphantom{b}m}$ \stoptext
but this leaves too much vertical space - compare it to:
\starttext ${2\over \vphantom{b}a}{2\over b}{2\over \vphantom{b}m}$ \stoptext
Can this be a bug in ConTeXt math spacing? Use the \frac command.
\starttext $\frac{2}{a}\frac{2}{b}\frac{2}{m}$ \stoptext Wolfgang
Thank you, Wolfgang.
I had stopped using the \frac command a while ago
as it was *seriously broken*, previously.
Why, however, does the TeX construction {a\over b}
not work correctly, and more precisely, why does the TeX
command \vphantom{b} not give the desired result?
