Dear Paul,

Having just found 10 mins to play around in response to your recent sugestions the situation can be summarised as:
1. \mathbf etc no longer work in maths mode.
2. for normal text everything works ok from the maths panel
3. for Greek text the maths panel will not produce bold text
4. \bm works in maths mode and will give bold Greek characters
5. the appearance of some normal bold letters (eg 'a') is different depending on whether bm of the maths panel is used.
6. it is not necessary with FoilTex to explicitly add \usepackage{bm} or \usepackage{amsbsy}. It is also possible to use \boldsymbol in maths mode and the output (as far as I can see) is the same as for \bm.

Best wishes,

David

*Should* it work on Greek letters? Is there such a thing as Greek
letters in teletype font (let alone Fraktur)?
I don't think so.

Btw, could you send a minimal example which "dies not work".
Maybe it's just some kind of misunderstanding here...

Here is a small LyX file that illustrates the problem with \mathtt{} in math mode. \texttt works fine, but \mathtt (typed verbatim in a formula) simply disappears.
