Powerpoint align equation at equal sign

How do i align equations at the equal sign in powerpoint ? In microsoft word there is an option to align at the equal sign but I've spent 10 minutes and can't find a similar option for powerpoint.


Solution 1:

In equation mode, write your equations one line at a time, hitting "shift+enter" to create each new line. After writing them, one equation at a time, right click on the left of the equal sign: in the contextual menu that opens, select "Math options -> Align at this character".

Solution 2:

As it seems, something similar to the eqnarray LaTeX command is available in PowerPoint 365 as \eqarray. For example, you could write

\eqarray(1+2&=3@3&=1+2)

which should present an equation in the form

1+2 = 3
  3 = 1+2

That is, the & symbol marks the sign used for the alignment (= in this example), and the @ symbol marks a new line.
