Text Formatting ⇒ Section numbering format

[feri]

Hi, every body
in my TEX document the section numbering is like this:
1.1
1.2
1.3
But I want
1-1
1-2
1-3
How can I do it?
Also, how can I do the same thing for equation numbering?

The lines below go into the preamble.

Code: Select all

\renewcommand{\thesection}{\thechapter--\arabic{section}}
\renewcommand{\theequation}{\thechapter--\arabic{equation}}

Best regards and welcome to the board
