What is the default vertical spacing in align?

What is the default vertical spacing in align?

The default vertical spacing within an align environment seems very tight when there are fractions in the lines.

What’s the difference between Align and alignat environments?

Both environments have an implicit {} at the beginning of cells in the left aligned columns, to help getting good spacing when a cell starts with a relation or operation symbol. Other uses of alignat are when we want finer control on the horizontal spacing between (pairs of) columns.

Which is the correct solution for vertical spacing?

Solutions 1 and 3 add vertical space even between the lines that don’t need them, so if the set of equations has lines without fractions (and lines with fractions), the spacing is not quite right. Is there not some automated solution to always leave the appropriate vertical space between the bottom of one line and the top of the next?

How to add vertical spacing between lines in Excel?

Use the spreadlines environment from the mathtools package. Solutions 1 and 3 add vertical space even between the lines that don’t need them, so if the set of equations has lines without fractions (and lines with fractions), the spacing is not quite right.

How to adjust vertical spacing in Stack Exchange?

– TeX – LaTeX Stack Exchange Adjusting vertical spacing in fractions? For my taste, the vertical spacing above and below the fraction line is too small. I’m aware of the various questions that have been asked before (e.g., “vertical spacing in nested fraction” ), but I do not find the solutions advocated there to be satisfactory.

How can I extend the default spacing of fractions?

What I would like to be able to do is to set either a global factor (for all fractions) or a local factor (for a specific fraction) that stretches the default spacing. Any ideas on how I could achieve this? In the above MWE, the fraction is much simpler than the one I’m grappling with in my real document. So replacing the \\frac ‘s by / won’t help.
