Hi Richard, I took a look at your example. First it didn't compile because it load a heck.sty package. If I comment that one out of the preamble, it does compile with left aligned formula and numbers on the left side. But I cannot reproduce it! I looked at the Lyx source code, and the formula starts with a \begin{gather} environment command, which I am not familiar with. It is not part of the AMS package, isn't it? How do I start such an environment?
