Sorry for sending this again: I forgot a closing "}" in \type{FLalign]…)}…
Hi,
Is this what you want to achieve:
%%%%%% begin
\starttext
From Aditya's \type{mathalign.pdf}, where he defines in fact a
\type{\definemathalignment[flalign]},
(but I prefer \type{FLalign]…)} one has
\definemathalignment[FLalign] [m=2, distance=5em plus 1 fil] %We need to set a
default value for m
Curiouslearn' input was:
\startformula
\startalign
\NC\text{\bf Example: } \frac{d(4x^{2})}{dx} = 4
\frac{dx^{2}}{dx} = 4 (2x) = 8x.\NC{ }\NR
\stopalign
\stopformula
\startformula
\startFLalign %% here you can add [m=2] or [m=3] if you need more columns
\NC\text{\bf Example: } \frac{d(4x^{2})}{dx} = 4
\frac{dx^{2}}{dx} = 4 (2x) = 8x.\NC \NC \NR %% note twice \NC
\stopFLalign
\stopformula
\stoptext
%%%%%% end
Best regards: OK
