Edit->Maths menu did the trick. Thanks! I'd never noticed it before... Thanks also for the clarification re minibuffer.

Not so for me, but it probably depends on which class you are using and which environment for the equation. > How do I remove the unnecessary numbering? Try Edit -> Math -> Toggle numbering of line (Alt-M, Shift-N) to number/not number one line. Edit -> Math -> Toggle numbering (Alt-M N) turns numbering on/off for all lines of the equation at once. > I have looked around on Google and the best advice I found is “You > can turn off numbering of a specific line by entering math-nonumber > in the minibuffer (below the main LYX window) while the cursor is on > that line of a multi-line numbered equation.” from HYPERLINK > "http://www.lyx.org/~jug/lyx/lyxdoc/UserGuide/node34.html"; but I > don’t know what is meant by the minibuffer? The minibuffer is a text input field that lets you enter a LyX command. Alt-X will display the minibuffer at the bottom of the screen. (Getting rid of it is not so easy. In 1.4.4, you can right click an empty space in the menu bar and deselect it. In 1.5.0, you can't even do that -- you have to go to the View -> Toolbars to get rid of it. IMHO this is going in the wrong direction.) Watching the status line at the bottom of the screen while you perform editing operations is one way to learn commands suitable for the minibuffer. That said, you don't need it to toggle line numbers. If the cursor is in the line you wish to toggle, you can use the menu or shortcut keys above. /Paul -- No virus found in this incoming message.
