Hi! I'm facing this problem: I would like to write long equations (two or even three lines are needed) in which (possibly) each line is center aligned in the

I have never figured out how to do this for an eqnarray environment - only in a regular equation. One possibility would be to use a minipage and frame it. This doesn't look to great, however...

Moreover I really need

to have one reference number only (not one for each line). Is this possible?

You can just assign a number to one line (e.g. the last line) in the equation. Within the equation, choose Edit->Math->Number This Line

I

possible?
Thanks guys!

tried reading the manual but the methods I read about multiline equations seem not to fit my needs. I have a Tex code which does almost this (it lacks the center alignment), but I would like to know if it is possible to do this without the code to have the good looking equation, and not the inline code :-). Is this

See attached for an example.
