Hi,
I had the same problem once. The solution is quite simple:
- Add "\usepackage[dvips]{color}" in "Layout>Latex Preamble..."
- Insert the Xfig-File via "Insert>External Material" and
choose "Xfig" as Template and then choose the filename
of your figure
This solution has the advantage that you can use the power of latex-formula
type-setting in your figure by editing the properties of the label with the
formula and choosing the "Special Flag" as "Special". Now you can type in the
formulas as you are used to in latex (like "$\pi^{2}").
