  <paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3156316" xml-lang="en-US">The factorial is not scaled (example: "fact stack{a#b}" and "fact {a over b}") but is oriented using the baseline or center of the arguments.</paragraph>
  <paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3150756" xml-lang="en-US">Brackets always have a fixed size as well. This applies to all symbols that can be used as brackets. Compare "(((a)))", "( stack{a#b#c})", "(a over b)".</paragraph>
  <paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3147570" xml-lang="en-US">Brackets preceded by "left" or "right", however, are always adjusted to the argument. See "left(left(left(a right)right)right)", "left(stack{a#b#c}right)", "left(a over b right)".</paragraph>
  <paragraph xml-lang="en-US" role="paragraph" id="par_id3145206">Some <link href="text/smath/01/03091300.xhp" name="Attributes">Attributes</link> have fixed sizes; do not change these if they are placed above a long symbol.</paragraph>
