How to label equation with particular format?












3















I have several equations, I want to label equation 1 and 2 to be (eqt1) and (eqt2), any other equations after it use normal equation number, say (1), (2), (3),... How to do it in latex?



E.g.



begin{align}
1+1=2 (eqt1)
end{align}

begin{align}
2+3=5 (eqt2)
end{align}

begin{align}
3+3=6 (1)
end{align}

begin{align}
4+3=7 (2)
end{align}

  • @Yorgos We can straightaway achieve it with tag{...} (which is part of amsmath package) to customise the label of equations and then use the normal way of cross-referencing the equations with eqref{...}.

    Another possibility, using the same equation counter as the default: mathtools has a newtagform command, which can be used to customise the appearance of the equation number, and a usetagform command which can be used within the document body:



    documentclass[10pt,a4paper]{article}
    usepackage{mathtools}
    newtagform{eqt}{(eqt,}{)}

    begin{document}

    usetagform{eqt}
    begin{align}
    label{e1} 1+1=2
    end{align}

    begin{align}
    label{e2} 2+3=5
    end{align}

    usetagform{default}
    begin{align}
    label{e3} 3+3=6
    end{align}

    begin{align}
    label{e4} 4+3=7

    • The OP asked for (eqt1), (eqt2), (1), (2). You have given them (eqt1), (eqt2), (3), (4). You would need to reset the counter after (eqt2) to give the behaviour asked for

      This was not quite clear to me. I indeed mentioned that in what I propose, both types of equation share the same counter – only the formatting differs.

    • They said they wanted to have (eqt1) and (eqt2) and then start counting from (1) again. Your answer continues counting after (eqt2) with (3) so you need to include setcounter{equation}{0} at that point to get the behaviour the OP wanted

            • The OP asked for (eqt1), (eqt2), (1), (2). You have given them (eqt1), (eqt2), (3), (4). You would need to reset the counter after (eqt2) to give the behaviour asked for

              This was not quite clear to me. I indeed mentioned that in what I propose, both types of equation share the same counter – only the formatting differs.

            • They said they wanted to have (eqt1) and (eqt2) and then start counting from (1) again. Your answer continues counting after (eqt2) with (3) so you need to include setcounter{equation}{0} at that point to get the behaviour the OP wanted
