lyx-1.5.2. I chose ams article class. I don't have any sections in this
short memo, and the first equation is 0.1.
Exporting latexpdf, I see:
\numberwithin{equation}{section} %% Comment out for sequentially-numbered
\numberwithin{figure}{section} %% Comment out for sequentially-numbered
How can I change this within lyx? I don't see anything in document
settings.
Document class "article (AMS, sequential numbering)"?
Thanks.
BTW, having to choose a different class just to get some little variation
is, (let me be kind here...) suboptimal?
Well, funky maybe.
I can imagine a nice dialog with check boxes for this sort of thing.
"This sort of thing" is going to be very class-specific. For AMS, it's
a check box to decide whether numbering is within sections ... and
another for whether there's numbering at all. For a different class
it's going to be something else. So I think what this would require is
(1) syntax in the layout file to define options (how to display them in
a dialog, what the choices are, what LaTeX to insert for each choice)
and (2) an extra dialog in Document -> Settings that self-configures
based on that piece of the layout file. Sounds doable (though not by me
-- allergy to C++), but perhaps not obvious how many layouts would
exploit it. Perhaps it should go on the wiki wish-list and people could
vote for it (by suggesting layouts that would benefit from it)?
