Re: keyboard binding for font in math mode
I found that these work. I suggest using these in the Math mode font toolbar since the current approach leaves the cursor outside the insert text box # insert in mathbf font or mathcal \bind C-M-bcommand-sequence math-insert \mathbf; char-backward \bind C-M-ecommand-sequence math-insert \mathcal; char-backward Bob On 1/6/12 10:48 AM, Bob Alvarez wrote: I use multiple fonts in my equations and it is tedious to type for example \mathcal every time I want to insert a character with that font. So I wrote a keyboard binding that takes over the control-e in cua.bind \bind C-emath-insert \mathcal This works OK but it leaves the cursor to the right of the entry box so every time I have to type a left-arrow to get into the box. Is there any way to define the binding so I end up inside the box? TIA Bob p.s. I got the command from the font tools that appear at the bottom of the window in math mode. But that does the same thing i.e. does not end up in the box pps. I am a mailing list newbie. How do I reply to messages so they end up in the same thread with my original. I think I am supposed to have an in-reply-to field in the message header but how do I do this with thunderbird? ppps. I am using Lyx 1.6.5 on Windows XP
