Perhaps they also played with the Position variable in the paragraph style used for the equation. I notice that they put the equation number in a very small font. It appears to me that this is the method Redlers used when preparing the illustrative technical-journal articles that have equations. The only negative seems to be that the equation number is on its own line. The result looks fine and is automatically numbered. Cross referencing works the same was as pointing to a figure or table. Where "Eq (1)" will be close to the right margin. Text saying announcing the relevant equation: Now, copy and paste your equation into the text from, e.g., MathType, do a carriage return, choose Equation Number from the auto-title menu and, voila. (" Current#)" where you have to type in everything except Current#, which you choose from the Insert Element menu. Name it "Equation Number."ĭefine this autotitle as a bunch of tabs ( to get over to beside your right margin), followed by "Eq." Current# or "Eq. Assuming your autotitle setup has some slots to spare, use one of (e.g., the tenth). Problem: the numbering is manual, although adjusting the numbering would be quick. Enter the equation number into the right cell. Copy and paste the equation from, e,g, MathType, into the left cell. Insert a table with two columns, one row.Īdjust the cell widths so that the right cell is close to the right margin, leaving the first cell with nearly all of the space. The latter is what Ori suggested months ago (using autotitles). The first may be more feasible with the new beta's treatment of tables. Responding to my own question, I have tried two methods for entering equations.
