  Blank lines in align environment  




When I put a blank line between a line of text and the align environment, it will add two blank lines instead. It seems that the align environment automatically adds a set of blank lines. I don't want two sets of blank lines, but this makes my code very hard to read. Compare (the 'correct way')

\begin{align*}
L\frac{di}{dt} + Ri = EU(t) \\
i(0) = 0
\end{align*}
In Heaviside's operator notation, this is 
\begin{align*}
pLi + Ri &amp;= EU(t)\\
i &amp;= \frac{E}{pL + R}U(t)
\end{align*}


and 

\begin{align*}
L\frac{di}{dt} + Ri = EU(t) \\
i(0) = 0
\end{align*}

In Heaviside's operator notation, this is 

\begin{align*}
pLi + Ri &amp;= EU(t)\\
i &amp;= \frac{E}{pL + R}U(t)
\end{align*}


This may seem trivial but in a large document it's really hard to read the first example and relatively easy to read the second. 

Is there a way to change this, e.g. with a \renewcommand?

By the way, is there an easier way of putting code on this site besides hitting space bar 4 times for each line? I tried HTML tags but they don't work.


Question: How to redirect when loading a standard page on the custom page?
Answer: You can override those settings in the custom object setup. For example, you can override the settings for the standard tab to send the user to the custom VF page that you've created. You can do that by clicking on the edit link next to the tab of the custom object in the "Buttons, Links, and Actions" section under the custom object's settings. You can do the same for the other types of links that you've mentioned. Here's the link to the help document that provides more details: Overriding Standard Buttons and Tab Home Pages https://help.salesforce.com/HTViewHelpDoc?id=links_customize_override.htm
