I tied it. It does not work. a+b=c simply vanishes on this computer (Win
XP) if preview is turned on, even if I close Lyx and open the file
again. I have dvipng installed.
This relates to the LyxWin version of March 7, which may be different
from the one I tried this morning on my laptop: I encountered the
problem mentioned by Paul already that 'check for "/c/Program"'
occurred (rather than "c/Program Files"). This was no problem on my
laptop (Win XP, Lyx 1.4 installed in C:/Program Files/Lyx1.4).
The Ert insert seem more decent here, but I shall try again at home (and
be more exact with the version dates). Which is the version the
developers would like to be tested, by the way?
