QUESTION
I am running an older version of Lyx that I downloaded about 1 year ago,
and I have the following question: I make alot of display and inline
equations within Lyx, but none of them come up readible from the Lyx
user interface, so I have to constantly hit the View PDF or View DVI
tool to get a view of the equation that I typed in. Isn't there a way to
have the Lyx user interface show the equation (as I type it) and as it
will actually look when printed?
Thank you.
What you are asking for is called "instant preview" and it has been
available since at least LyX 1.3.7 (I don't recall it being in 1.3.6,
but then my memory is notoriously unreliable). Please see
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/InstantPreview for details relating to preview
in LyX 1.3.x.
