Hi, I'm using LyX for university and I'm trying to write a document in Hebrew but I had to switch to using babel and LuaLaTeX due to some annoying packages like so: 1. Document Settings > Language > Language package > none 2. Latex preamble:
\usepackage[bidi=basic, layout=tabular, provide=*]{babel} \babelprovide[main, import]{hebrew} \babelprovide{rl} 3. File > Export > PDF (LuaTeX) Once I try to export, I "undefined control sequence" on the following commands: \beginL, \endL, \beginR, \endR, \R, \L It seems like LyX adds these around numbers and words in english. To mitigate this issue I tried to change the document language to English under Document settings > language and also ctrl+a > right click > language > english which then compiles successfully and looks correct thanks to babel. But when I do that, the text in LyX is backwards and I can't work like that, so I have to switch the language to english every time I want to export then switch back to hebrew when I want to edit my document. Another problem is that when I switch to english LyX swaps the parenthesis so they are swapped in the final PDF. It's not a very fun way to use LyX. Is there a way to tell LyX to not insert those commands? Or somehow disassociate the document display language from the compile language? (And set the compile to english and display to hebrew). Thanks.
