Hi Aditya,
it is more a problem related to horizontal and vertical modes/boxes, you can
test it by placing \startformula .. \startformula into a hbox/vbox and only
the
vbox solution works.
This is working
\vbox
{\startformula
x^2 = x\cdot x
\stopformula}
This fails
\hbox
{\startformula
x^2 = x\cdot x
\stopformula}
You can use disply math in a frame by setting explivied values for width
and height of the frame.
\framed
[width=5cm,height=4cm]
{\startformula
x^2 = x\cdot x
\stopformula}
This solution works also in combination with a buffer
\startbuffer
\startformula
x^2 = x\cdot x
\stopformula
\stopbuffer
\framed[width=6cm,height=4cm]{\getbuffer}
