Why not let latex compute the space ?
Here is an alternative way to do what you want:
1. Put the following in latex mode:
\begin{equation}\begin{array}{c}\mbox{
2. Insert figure (as inline)
3. Put the following (in latex mode)
}\end{array}
4. Insert label
5. Put the following (in latex mode)
\end{equation}

just before you insert the image, means between first \hfill
and image in tex(red)
\parbox{the width}{
and just behind the image the closing parenthesis
}
for "the width" have a look at the boundig box values
in your eps-file. maybe the fifth line in the file.
choose the x-value and insert it as width, for example
\parbox{300pt}{
you can also play araound with a width in cm.
a parbox is centered by default if there are no
other options vor vertical alignment, therefore
it should work

Re: Numbering a figure as an equation
Excellent! This will work just fine. However, it would be even better if
the equation number was vertically centered with the figure. (My picture is
a bit tall.) For example, I would prefer this
[ ]
[ An eps figure of a reaction ] (2)
[ ]
to what I get with your method, namely
[ ]
[ An eps figure of a reaction ]
[ ] (2)
Also note that I manually placed ()'s around the number.
Thanks so much for your help!

the following all in _one_ line!
hit ctrl-space
insert->special characters->hfill
insert-image (or click on button) as usual. not as float!
insert->special characters->hfill
write in tex (red): \refstepcounter{equation}
insert->label->any label you like
write in tex (red): (\theequation)
now you can do refs via lyx as usual

Numbering a figure as an equation
Hi, I have a picture (eps format) of a chemical reaction that I would like to enter in the text as if it were a labeled equation. I want the chemical reaction labeled in sequence with the other equations, most of which are actual math. Here is an example of what I would like to do: Blah blah blah, words words words... 1+1=2 (1) Blah blah blah in Equation 1. Blah blah [An eps picture of some reaction] (2) For the reaction shown in Equation 2 above... I hope I've been clear on what I am trying to accomplish. Thanks for your help. Kevin Gross
