I'm more going towards what you're after than what you currently have... Specifying a fixed distance between columns is best done using the @{..} specification. So, for example, one could use l@{\hspace{1cm}}c to denote a 1cm gap between a left and centred column. \documentclass{article} \usepackage{booktabs}% http://ctan.org/pkg/booktabs ...

Replication of column specifications is done using a *{<num>}{<col spec>} interface, which should repeat <col spec> a total of <num> times: \begin{tabular}{*{20}{c}} % tabular content \end{tabular} will produce a table of 20 columns, each one centred. To add vertical column rules (which you should never do), you can use ...

You can set the problem in an array to adjust the spacing. For consistency, it's best to define this as an environment: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{amsmath,array,environ} \DeclareMathOperator*{\minimize}{\text{minimize}} \DeclareMathOperator*{\subjto}{\text{subject to}} \newcolumntype{R}{>{\displaystyle}r} ...

Use \centering inside the figure environment. \documentclass[10.5pt]{beamer} \usepackage{beamerthemesplit} \usetheme{Copenhagen} \setbeamercovered{transparent} \usepackage{ragged2e} \let\olditem=\item% \renewcommand{\item}{\olditem \justifying} \begin{document} \begin{frame} \begin{itemize} \item blablabla \begin{figure} \centering ...

You can try with align key of enumitem and define your own align key: \SetLabelAlign{myright}{strut\smash{\parbox[t]{\labelwidth}{\raggedleft#1}}} and use it as align=myright. \documentclass{article} \usepackage{enumitem,showframe} \SetLabelAlign{myright}{strut\smash{\parbox[t]{\labelwidth}{\raggedleft#1}}} \newlist{keywordlist}{description}{1} ...

I would use aligned rather than array here, because semantically it's not really a cases situation nor an array: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{amsmath} \begin{document} \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{aligned} a^{3} + b^{3} &= -q \\ ab &= \dfrac{-1}{3} \, p \end{aligned} \right. \end{equation*} \end{document}

\centering is a switch that causes everything inside the group following it to be centred. Remove it since you don't need it in this context - it is the cause of the alignment problem in your section title. Moving the list environment to the right could be done using enumitem's leftmargin or wide key-value. \documentclass[12pt]{article} ...

Pass the align=center option to the nodes. I also changed to a matrix of math nodes to have the proper math-mode for the math expressions (regular text was produced with the help of \text from amsmath) and increased the text width: \documentclass[a4paper,fontsize=12pt,a4paper,DIV=10,BCOR=10mm,twoside,titlepage=false,openany,pagesize]{scrbook} ...

Change the definition of \paragraph so that it is like \subsubsection and not an inline title. \documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{article} \makeatletter \renewcommand\paragraph{% \@startsection{paragraph}{4}{\z@}% {-3.25ex \@plus-1ex \@minus-.2ex}% the same spacing above, but negative {1sp}% no space after the title ...

When I tried using cases, it aligned nicely and worked just fine: $\begin{cases} a^3+b^3 &= -q \\ ab &= -\dfrac{1}{3}\,p. \end{cases}$ If that isn't an answer and you really are stuck with using the array, you might try to change the column separator to an equals sign with a bit of space around it, and then put @{} before the ...

I suggest using the empheq package for a simpler syntax, with option overload. It loads mathtools, which in turn loadsamsmath. I also usenccmath` for its mediumsized fractions, that look better here, in my opinion: \documentclass{article} \usepackage[overload]{empheq} \usepackage{nccmath} \begin{document} \begin{align*}[left = \empheqlbrace] a^{3} + ...

try ... \makeatletter \let\SX@I\SX@resultInput \def\SX@resultInput{\centerline{\SX@I}} \makeatother \begin{document} \LTXinputExample[pos=t,style=PSTricks,graphic={[scale=1]"diagram"}]{diagram.tex} \end{document}

Taken from Herbert's another answer (click) several decades ago and I modified to meet my requirement. But honestly I am not sure whether or not it is safe for long-term use. \documentclass[dvipsnames,border=12pt,preview]{standalone} \usepackage{xcolor} \usepackage{showexpl} \usepackage{accsupp} ...

The column separation specification @{<stuff>} inserts <stuff> between the columns, so the result is as expected in your case. If you want a 2.5pt gap, then you need to insert @{\hspace{2.5pt}}. However, if your main aim is to align the parts at the = sign, then you can use \documentclass{article} \usepackage{amsmath} \begin{document} ...

You could simply not use the \text{...} "wrapper" in the second argument of \DeclareMathOperator*} macro. Instead, just write \newcommand\myspacer{\quad} \DeclareMathOperator*{\minimize}{minimize\myspacer} \DeclareMathOperator*{\subjto}{subject\ to\myspacer} The macro \myspacer is set to \quad for now. If you wish to change it to \qquad or \, that's ...
