Dear LyXers,
in my teaching documents, terms like $1 \cdot 1$ are regularely required.
In Germany, the \cdot (·) is the common multiplication operator and it is
also available on the keyboard as [AltGr ,].
Unfortunately, pressing [AltGr ,] in mathed inserts \text{·} instead of
\cdot. (This is bug #9616 http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9616 )
The text character looks similar in most fonts but has the wrong spacing.
Currently, I have to go back and press backspace to dissolve the text inset
everytime after inserting a center dot. This is very cumbersome.
Binding · to "math-insert \cdot" has the side-effect that the math-command
is also inserted in text.
Is there a quick workaround to let [AltGr ,] insert \cdot in mathed and · in
text (maybe using command-alternatives or so)?
Thanks,
Günter
