Hi,

First insert a label on section 2 (Insert->Label...). You will be proposed a label name, you may change it if you want. That's the target of the link.

Then, at the place you want to insert the link, insert a cross reference (Insert->Cross-Reference...) you select the label created before for section 2 and press "OK".

You can use it in LyX to jump to section 2 by right-click and choosing "Go to Label" in the context menu or by left-clicking and pressing the "Go to Label" button in the window that opens.

When generating a pdf (pdfLaTeX), you'll see the coloured section number and it will be a link to section 2. So you'd better insert the cross reference in a sentence like "See section [Ref: sec:label]." where the bracket part is the cross reference inset. This inset is replaced by the number 2 in the pdf. You can choose more options in the cross-reference window with the "Format" drop-down menu.

Have a look at section 6.1 of the user manual for a better explanation.

Best regards,

Olivier
