Christian,
I think the text below is correct and appropiate.

Question:
How can I disallow LaTeX to linebreak an inlined math formula?
(This is typically useful for formulas at the end of a line)
Answer:
You can put the formula inside an "mbox" to prevent LaTeX from
splitting up the formula. The steps can be summarized as follows:
1) Go to math mode (inline formula or display formula)
2) Type \mbox and then a press carriage return or the spacebar
3) The text "\mbox" disappears and a box appears
4) Select math mode
5) Type the equation inside the box
Alternatively to the above solution, you can type, inside math mode,
\{ and \}, respectively, before and after your formula.
Question:
How can I insert a frame around my equation?
1) Go to math mode (inline formula or display formula)
2) Type \boxed and then a press carriage return or the spacebar
3) The text "\boxed" disappears and a framed box appears
4) Type the equation inside the box

enable the amsmath button and then use \boxed{...}
inside the math mode, it is the better way

How can I disallow LaTeX to linebreak an inlined math formula?; and the other one to answer the question: 2. How to put a box around an equation?. Regarding the question 1, I would also include Herbert's solution. Paul
Re: Is this possible with lyx?
MY PROCEDURE FOR DUMMIES WAS WRONG, SORRY The problem comes from the fact that within the box generated with the \fbox command you are back to the text environment, hence to type equations, once you are inside the box, you have to insert an online formula HOW TO PUT A BOX AROUND AN EQUATION Resume for dummies n. 2, hopefully the right one: 1) go to math mode with the command INSERT --> MATH --> DISPLAY FORMULA 2) type \fbox (visible box) and then a press carriage return or the spacebar 3) the text "\fbox" disappear and a framed box appears 4) put the cursor inside the box (WARNING, YOU ARE IN TEXT MODE NOW!!) 5) go again to math mode with the command INSERT --> MATH --> INLINE FORMULA 6) type the equation there inside 7) eventually apply equation number as usual As a comment, 1) the box reduces the height of the equation, I don't know why, but this seems to be a feature of Latex, not of Lyx 2) if you need the eqnarray environment within the box you are in troubles, it seems it does not work. A workaround is given by inserting a matrix from the math panel and then aligning the contents with EDIT-->MATH-->ALIGNEMENT--> WHAT YOU NEED Hope this is useful, thanks to all Giorgio Zavarise

_inside_ the math mode put all in braces { ... }
no need for ERT
Inside math mode, just write
\mbox
This solution does not need ERT as well.
Paul
I needed it also, and it works fine, thanks, but to see
the box frame I used \fbox.
Resume for dummies (I am the first one):
1) go to math mode (inline formula or display formula)
2) type \fbox and then a press carriage return or the
spacebar
3) the text "\fbox" disappear and a framed box appears
4) type the equation there inside
5) eventually apply equation number
Hope this is useful, thanks to all
