I just discovered LyX. What a great program! I have been using LateX and MS
Word for many years, but never been happy. This looks just like what I have
been looking for. I have some basic questions
1. I use LyX on OS X 10.5.6. Graphics (eps and pdf) never show up. It just says

This is a bug. I fixed this now for the next LyX release.

When clicking on the table icon in the toolbar, you can set the number of
rows/columns.

Hi,
You must be doing something wrong or your lyx went crazy.
1. Just a simple idea, make a small test page on a new blank file. Make sure
that your lyx can at least do the right thing.
2. delete the appendix and start over again.

The problem had disappeared.
The sequence was:
1. I had the problem I complained about
2. I got around it by inserting fleqn as a Document Class option
3. I tried to prepare a file to send you as an example, so I removed
the fleqn option
4. When I re-did th
I agree that this is what I SHOULD be getting (that is what I had
expected), but instead, when I use the Section, subsection, etc.
I get numbers that simply continue from the last section of the paper.

Hi all,
I know that exporting to latex and then reimporting to lyx is not that
smooth, but I made a simple try which surpise me:

"article (AMS)"
- insert a theorem (even just a word after it, no math nor images)

I want to color some cells in a table. For this I am trying to define
the following in the preamble:
\usepackage{colortbl}
\definecolor{'111'}{rgb}{0.9,0,0.3}
\definecolor{112}{rgb}{1,0,0}
\definecolor{121}{rgb}{0.8,0.3,0.9}
\definecolor{122}{rgb}

So I did, and found how to prevent Lyx from centering numbered equations:
use the fleqn option in the Document Class under Settings.
This left-justifies the equations, which is not really what I wanted,
but it prevents the breaking up of the equation tha
