I am trying to use the package siunitx for correct typesetting of SI units with LyX. However, I run into a problem when attempting to enter a number with units in math mode.
In LaTeX, one would enter $a = \SI{50}{\metre\per\second\squared}$ However, in LyX, the second set of curly braces does not seem to be associated with the initial command, which leads to them being escaped with backslashes, thus: $a = \SI{50} \{ \metre\per\second\squared \} $ This does not render correctly. Is there any way around this? I am using LyX 2.0.0RC1 on Windows XP, but please let me know if this is possible in 1.6! Thanks! -- Andrew Steele http://andrewsteele.co.uk/
