Dear Ben, I haven't used Lyx for long, but for years and years have heard about Latex so was excited to find Lyx. Especially since I'm going back to school. My issue is simple (I think). Let's take an example (https://www.dropbox.com/s/k19be7n6uuegw1n/Numbered%20Equations%20Exampl e.pdf?dl=0), much like a text book in math or science uses many equations and refers to them by number (since you can have multiple variations of a "named" equation). I have copied and pasted this section out of a larger document, so the number equations have shifted back to 1, 2, 3, etc. However it's simply an example of what I'm thinking. - -- Respectfully, Robert Susmilch -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJVDDz+AAoJEJvhIiLnDQ8qL30P/RM6rNDyRzdi4qW2QgLiv3Yq 3jus8f23ai2IHdyyfeedZcKe7pf2ge78lOG118zZbazJko7iLFV49ioHjqgVODFz r60Icj1toefwtr14u5CJfnFoM/kwJIgbTmXwhmvYS6y+6xeuWovH78XMrdkqVeS/ nQLrWm4XTgkXPJh7nMZGe0i0NzV5DhaCaAuOsud93QwL2FXR9woULmD/PQ3bmwOZ iovxN4Ag1ElBzPhpFnDmJFXv8B1RoQRPq2+iHA7EuOf62T4GiGncxW2eKnRL3llQ mF99ok0PQ6jW3NDW7NgWTGSudZJJX4OEikc3FFdHVwQtsAi7vehKe905/1IS+TE8 izj5khuBxgAUyfiVxKkbp5Y8sr6cPsCuOcposcQucU2mXhMMYJHqZhBVan7wKBOf EaAcgAZsc+HRbI2tWkKaR8YNCDgawrLmQsXzrCBXShQkGmmEDfg+HTeodzKJKjir 49DM3fKP1lWCDIHZ0iLpaAyP/xPOWZK9KA0Tk8G4RAd97E4u6O72IvL5Kr5boXeL V1exSmJ7zcqP6esh4qWHkQXURt20h1PZeQlnGSZUZFFoOEMmDzvQd+vlHx2/Nwhi hsm/X6GEBu95QAvY3uBGpfGLIL1u7C1JCODsMATlRKszlWNBbvslICczfs+GkWHn 4Kcfn//eqgeZm6Pr/TxG =Lh1w -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
