I am writing an equation with the "new" Equation Editor in MS Word 2010 (Insert -> Equation). When using one of the "large operators", for example the Sigma, with lower and upper limits, there are two styles for displaying the limits - below and above the Sigma, or to the right as super/subscripts.

I am choosing the first style - limits above and below to get the standard notation, but Word formats the equation the other way.

Now, the object has a bounding box with a context menu on its right. In this menu, I can select Change to Display and the equation is moved to a new line, w/o adjacent text - but, now the sigma limits appear as requested!

Then, selecting Change to Inline reverts to the previous form.

So, I want to know if there is away to force the requested form with an "inline" attribute?

*I know that I can use a MS Equation 3.0 object, but I want to remain with the new, "native" editor.*
