Re: Eq. (1), not Eq. 1

[Joon Ro]

Hi,

If you directly edit the .lyx file, you will see 

\begin_inset CommandInset ref

LatexCommand ref
reference "eq:1"

\end_inset

for ref without parentheses, and 

\begin_inset CommandInset ref
LatexCommand eqref
reference "eq:1"

\end_inset

for ref with parentheses. (ref -> eqref)

So if you don't want to change those manually, you can just open up the lyx file in a text editor and replace every "LatexCommand ref" with "LatexCommand eqref".

Of course, to avoid replacing something you don't want, you will have to make the finding condition more restrictive (including the following line or using regular expressions).

Hope this is helpful.

Up to mi knowledge, yes, you'll have to do it every time. I don't really know how to automate this process.

Thanks Julio,

Your method requires me to fix each occurrence manually.  Is there a
setting for the pre-amble that will apply the (#) format through the
document?

Thanks,
Ken
