Make lim be multi line instead of single line

I am using this to represent a limit:



lim _{brightarrow infty }


But the limit expression gets on the side of the lim symbol.



enter image description here



I want it to be under lim.



I see that in some LaTeX represented versions, it appears in a correct way.



I use the following packages:



usepackage{mathtools}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage[osf,slantedGreek]{mathpazo}

  • Outside of a math environment $displaystyle lim_{b rightarrow infty}$ should do what you want.

The textstyle layout is designed not to disturb the interline spacing in the surrounding paragraph. If you force the use of limits style on math operators, or worse, force the use of displaystyle for the whole inline expression, the line spacing is disturbed and it is hard to see the paragraph as a unit of text. If the expression is complicated enough to require this, it is better to set it using a display construct such as [] rather than inline.
