Hello,
Does LyX have an option to copy and paste a piece of LaTeX code in raw
format, i.e. removing any trace of macros that were used to generate the
code?
Hello,
This functionality does not exist yet, but indeed it would be doable
(either pasting, or transforming an expression in place).
I would like to be able to use a command to copy and paste the LaTeX
code for the equation /as it is formatted/, so that any traces of the
macros in the source code are removed in doing so. I use LyX all the
time for my mathematical typesetting work and I have found macros to be
extremely useful, but the downside of this is that the equations cannot
be pasted into other software without some way of defining the macros or
creating preambles in those packages. The other software packages I have
in mind are ones that have a plugin to support LaTeX but aren’t designed
with it in mind (e.g. GeoGebra, Blender, InkScape etc.).
Are there any plans to implement such a feature (and how much would it
cost to implement such a feature if not)?
There are no current plans for that, that I know of. Indeed, paying
someone to do it may help to materialize it sooner. I suggest that you
create a ticket on www.lyx.org/trac. I will forward it to the developers
list to try to find someone willing to implement it.
