Hi all
What's the right string of tools to embed an SVG with alpha-channel
transparency into a LyX document so that I get the alpha channel
appearing right in the end-product PDF file?

transparency) and 'convert' (it

Hi Uwe,
This approach (save as PDF from Inkscape) did not give me alpha channel
transparency in my PDF. For example:
On the left is a PNG exported from Inkscape (or alternatively,
generated using 'rsvg-convert'. On the right is the PDF exported by
Inkscape.
So I'm still stuck with no alpha

You should be able to define a SVG - PNG converter in LyX's preferences.
If you use Imagemagick's convert utility to do this you probably save
the alpha
