I find equation creation in LaTeX incredibly powerful, but does need some experience since it is not WYSIWYG as you note. But, once you use it for equations, other WYSIWYG tools appear very limited.
I do not know LyX, but for me, the ability to see the output PDF from LaTeX source text (in seconds!) side-by-side within TeXStudio is so easy, I would not consider any other way anymore - for the kinds of docs I worry about anyway. YMMV, of course!

But a perhaps less stupid question is whether it's possible and practical to use a free-standing equation editor (e.g., MathType, MathMagic) or a tool that is based on LaTeX (e.g. LyX)? The LaTeX approach is kind of PITA because even the best tools are only WYSIWYM (what you see is what you mean​), but most professinals consider the end result to be the best quality available. -FR _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to framers@lists.frameusers.com Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to listad...@frameusers.com
