Hi all,

sometime I need to paste some latex code inside a lyx file.
When I do this, I lose all the formatting and, in particular,  I lose all new lines: this means that what I end up with in my red box in lyx is a complete mess which requires a lot of editing.

This is quite annoying: am I missing something which results in this behaviour?

Thank you

Have you tried Edit > Paste Special > Paste from LaTeX? Note that this is used to paste directly into the LyX document, /not/ into an ERT box (ctrl+L).

I usually just use Ctrl+Shift+V to paste text (including lines of LaTeX) that preserves new lines. It works in an ERT box. (I wasn't aware of the Paste from LateX option.  In fact, there's quite a bit here that has changed since I last carefully looked at what was offered by the different menus.)
