Ah true that is a good idea. I suppose the first step is for me to
figure out what I really want :). Thanks for your comments above. I'll
think more and test a couple of things.

Maybe you could provide a minimal example of the frame setup you have? I
guess you are working with some "frame" counter definition.
Ah indeed there is some interaction with another local patch I have
applied. I don't think the patch is necessary to reproduce the issue in
this thread (without it, it seems LyX marks them as #.1, #.2, #.3, #.4;
but for completeness I attach it (it is against current master).
I also attach an example .lyx file. I saved it as 2.3.x format just for
simplicity, but I am testing on current master. Note that the LyX file
has a preamble (that resets the counter to 0 in LaTeX) as well as a
local layout (that specifies the Within).
I also attach a screenshot, which has Frame number patch applied.
Instead of the equation labels "1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2", I would prefer
"1, 2, 1, 2" in the LyX display.
Thanks,
Scott
Like so:
Counter equation
Within frame
LabelString \arabic{equation}
End
?
Perfect! Thanks.
By the way, why do you use
\AtBeginEnvironment{align}{\setcounter{equation}{0}}
rather than
\AtBeginEnvironment{frame}{\setcounter{equation}{0}}
?
If you use the latter, you can use different equation environments without
getting ambiguous numbers within a frame.
That's a good idea. I might change to that. The reason why I initially
chose "align" was so that if I do two (small) aligns on one frame, both
would restart to (1). But that's a very rare situation anyway.
Okay, so you want them to restart at (1) on the same frame. So, if you
had two equation environments on one frame you couldn't say "3rd line of
equation on this frame" but would have to say "3rd line of the first
equation on this frame" or so.
I guess I might want to do both of the above LaTeX commands, in theory.
Almost all the time though, it's just one align on one frame so it won't
make a big difference.
If you have the latter command, the former seems superfluous because you
cannot have an equation that goes over more than one frame, or?
The former (your) LaTeX command mimics what enumerated lists do. Just
notice that the layout code I provided restarts within frame and hence
mimics the latter LaTeX command above not the former. I am not sure that
it is currently possible to mimic enumerated list counters in LyX. For
example,
Counter equation
Within equation
LabelString \arabic{equation}
End
just leads to a crash. (Maybe for obvious reasons?) Maybe what would be
needed is a reset of a counter depending on an environment rather than
another counter?
Best,
Daniel

That's a good idea. I might change to that. The reason why I initially
chose "align" was so that if I do two (small) aligns on one frame, both
would restart to (1). But that's a very rare situation anyway.
I guess I might want to do both of the above LaTeX commands, in theory.
Almost all the time though, it's just one align on one frame so it won't
make a big difference.

Subject: [PATCH] beamer.layout: display frame number in LyX display
TODO:
(LyXMessage-ID:)
For some reason, if one keeps the TocLevel to 4, the label "Frame ..."
disappears. But, I guess, as long as you don't use Subsubsection in your
presentation, it should be no problem?
TODO:
(LyXMessage-ID:)
But instead of an empty LabelString, LyX seems to treat it the same as if it
hadn't been defined and adds just the number in front. Maybe this is a bug?
Motivation: Doug would find it useful, racoon suggested upstream
also:
LyXMessage-ID:
Thanks to racoon for the help. I think I would have given up on my
initial try without your help.
TODO (optional): in fragile frame layout, any way to just append "(fragile)",
to avoid having to duplicate "\theframe" ? Also for plain frame.
