true raw Latex commands in math mode
Hallo, I am using LyX with Sweave to directly access R in my LyX document. This all works great but there is a tiny thing bugging me a lot: There is the sweave LaTeX command \Sexpr{ foo } which allows you to directly insert the content of foo into the document. Let's say there is a variable foo_bar then I can access foo_bar by inserting an ERT \Sexpr{foo_bar}. This works fine in text but NOT in math mode. It always wants to escape the underscore to \Sexpr{foo_{b}ar} . So how can I insert true raw ERT commands in math mode or is this perhaps even not possible? Thanks for your help! Matthias

If you want to use space in math mode you have to use latex space commands e.g. \: (either via toolbar or ctrl+space(+space...to cycle through possible spaces) or math-space lfun. This is the case if you want to produce *visible* space in the output. However, there is no way you can tell LyX to generate a space character in the latex code.

Second possibility is to switch to text mode inside math (ctrl+m when you are already in math mode). This will not allow you to generate the LaTeX code $f(x, y) = 3,45$. you can use any latex commands that do not contain space characters in math mode without any ERT. Günter

You should probably research how and where this command is used. AMS align is found under Insert-Math. I've attached a few screenshots showing the use of \intertext. Oh, thanks. Is the and in the second screenshot typed with the \intertext command or are theire two seperate math mode environments? This was using the \intertext command, not two seperate math mode environments. I'm not sure why you would need to use \\[2em] in a math environment. I show the use of it outside of the math environment. I know that. And i want to have the same possibility in the math mode. The \\[2em] was just an example (I need it some times ago in an array environment to correct the vertical spacing). I want to insert _arbitrary_ latex commands in the math mode. Otherwise I must type my equations in a latex-ERT box. Here is an other example. \documentclass[a4paper]{scrartcl} \usepackage{mathpazo} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc} \usepackage{amsmath} \begin{document} This \begin{align*} f(z) :=z^{2}\\ \intertext{with the substitution $z=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$} =x^2+y^2 \end{align*} is important. \end{document} How would you input the \intertext command with lyx? I started with \intertext \{with and now I am out of the brackets. It seems this \intertext command is not properly handled in LyX. I had the same problem, when you press 'space' it jumps you out of the command. You may want to file this as a bug or feature enhancement. I'm not sure which it would be. You may be stuck to ERT for this true AMS functionality. Cheers, /Bob
Latex commands in math mode
Hello, how can I add real latex commands in the math mode? I use Lyx 1.5.1 for Linux. E.g. I want to insert a \intertext{blah blah} before a equation, or add \\[2em] after a euqation. I tried Ctrl-l and '\' but this didnt work. Thanks, Friedrich

Thanks, Friedrich A quick google search revealed that \intertext is used in the AMS math environment. So you need to enable: Document-Settings-Math Options-Use AMS math package Then you should be able to use \intertext in at least the AMS 'align' environment.

Re: Latex commands in math mode
How would you input the \intertext command with lyx? I started with \intertext \{with and now I am out of the brackets. An other problem is the local math mode in $z=...$. Can't you just use something like \textrm or \mathrm? These both work in LyX math mode...
