Try to create a small LaTeX file that works and import this into LyX. This might help to find the required raw LaTeX command(s). Günter

LyX does not "know" about any raw LaTeX - so it may be you have to export the file to LaTeX and then run LaTeX Gnuplot etc. "by hand". Günter
Re: Embed Gnuplot commands in Lyx
It works now. I had to add the argument -shell-escape to the Converter syntax pdflatex in the Preferences.

We wanted to make LyX work more seamlessly with gnuplot. I believe that Koji made efforts towards this goal. I wanted to continue his work but I did not find the time and have since lost interest. I CC Koji just in case you two want to attempt to bring those efforts back to life.

Re: Embed Gnuplot commands in Lyx
This is a good idea. A small solution is, to write a short manual how to embed Gnuplot in Lyx on the Lyx-Webpage. A disadvantage of embedding Gnuplot code in Lyx is, that ERT doesn't understand unicode. So it's impossible, to embed unicode Gnuplot code in Lyx.
