I am having trouble with equation numbering using the amsbook document
class (LyX 1.3.5 on Mac OS X). The default equation numbering scheme
for this class is \numberwithin{equation}{section}, however I would
like to use \numberwithin{equation}{chapter}. I put this command in
the preamble but the equation numbering gets messed up. What happens
is that equation numbers get reset at the beginning of each new
section. For example, in Section 2.1, equation numbers start with
(2.1) and increase as expected. However, starting with Section 2.2,
equation numbers get reset to (2.1) etc.
If I export my document to LaTeX, I can see that the problem occurs
because the amsbook class includes the command
\numberwithin{equation}{section} in its preamble, which precedes LyX's
preamble in which I have typed \numberwithin{equation}{chapter}.
Within LaTeX, all I have to do is comment out
\numberwithin{equation}{section} and everything works fine. However,
within LyX, I don't have access to this command, so what do I do to
disable it?
Thanks,
Gerard Ateshian
