Latex use in Lyx

[Johan]

Hello.

I did see I can add LaTeX code to Lyx, it is displayed as latex code. I want to
type some shotcut key and $\int$ then I want to see the integral sign in math
mode. Is this possible in Lyx?

Also for environments like \begin{enumerate}...\end{enumerate},
\begin{align*}...\end{align*}, etc ..

Regards

Johan.

Yes. Enter math mode with 'ctrl + m' and then tab-completion will work.

 Also for environments like \begin{enumerate}...\end{enumerate},
 \begin{align*}...\end{align*}, etc ..

I don't think so (but I may be wrong). Simply choose the correct
environment using the UI.

Certainly.  You can use Ctrl-m to enter math-mode, then \int (no need to 
use the $'s) will get you an integral sign.  Or, you can bind enter 
math mode to a function key (I use f10).

Also for environments like \begin{enumerate}...\end{enumerate},
\begin{align*}...\end{align*}, etc ..
Again, there are built-in shortcuts, or you can assign keys to the ones 
you use most often.

Hit ctrl+m, then write latex math. It will be converted to integrals 
etc. as you type.



Also for environments like \begin{enumerate}...\end{enumerate},
\begin{align*}...\end{align*}, etc ..


You don't *need* this for enumerate, simply select enumerate and you 
will get a numbered list.


If you *want* to write latex code instead, click the TeX button. You'll 
get a red frame into which you can type any latex command. But it will 
stay as latex commands on screen, becoming lists etc. only when you print.
