Roy. Thank you for your reply.
It does work, indeed. What's confusing me is that the text is scaled as soon
as you click on the Apply button, but the math gets rescaled only if you Save
and then restart LyX.
Moreover, after spending some time searching through the messages in this
list, I've found several discussing Instant Preview issues. Just then I
realized that this topic is explained in an article by Angus in the Wiki
pages, at http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/InstantPreview.
This feature is not discussed in the User Guide, though, and it seems to me
that the Wiki pages turned out to be the de facto manual pages for LyX, or am
I wrong?
Since I'm on it, some days ago I posted a message inquiring about boxes around
systems of equations. Has anyone been able to do that on LyX?
