%% I need this extra code here because I want all equations after this one until I manually add another linebreak before another equation.
%% This extra linebreak ensures all equations following this one are aligned properly.
%% See http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/259843/how-to-align-equations-with-different-number-of-lines-in-the-matrix-environment .
%%
%% This code below creates an invisible linebreak which doesn't cause any vertical spacing between equations.
%% It also aligns all following equations at this invisible linebreak.
%% Note I have had trouble getting this code work when it is inside savenotes - which is why I have had to take it outside savenotes.
%% However this does mean there will be spaces between aligned equations unless there is another manual linebreak before another equation.
%% Code taken from https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/28805/vertical-alignment-of-equations-with-multiple-lines .
%%
%% Note this code does not work inside savenotes because it needs extra spacing which savenotes does not allow.
%% If we want extra vertical spacing after this equation then we need two line breaks after "noalign".
%% If we just want one line break then we need one line break after "noalign".
%%
%% However if we don't want any vertical spacing then we need no line breaks after "noalign".
%%
%% This code also aligns subsequent equations at this invisible linebreak.

%% Now close subalign - note it must go before end savenotes otherwise it doesn't work properly.
