[libreoffice-users] Numbering Equations

In LibreOffiice 3.3  Math Guide (0700MG33-MathGuide3.3.odt), on p. 14, the
following is written:

 *Numbering equations*

Equation numbering is one of LibreOffice Math’s best hidden features. The
steps are simple, but obscure:

   1.

   Start a new line.
   2.

   Type *fn* and then press *F3*.

 The *fn* is replaced by a numbered formula:

  [[equation: E = mc2]                         (2)

()

Now you can double-click on the formula to edit it. For example, here is
the Riemann Zeta function:
[equation: [Rieman Zeta Function]       (3)

You can reference an equation (“as shown in Equation (2)”) with these steps:

   1.

   Choose *Insert > Cross-reference* from the menu bar.
   2.

   On the *Cross-references* tab (Figure 17), under *Type*, select *Text*.
   3.

   Under *Selection*, select the equation number.
   4.

   Under *Format*, select *Reference*.

When I typed fn and pressed F3, nothing happened. In the document the fn I
typed appeared, not the desired result.


I do not know whether my F3 key did not work.

Can somebody kindly explain in step-by-step detail  how to number equations.
