The following works for 1.4cvs: a black WrongFormula box will be shown
in place of wrong formula. This is just to show the idea, no efficiency
has been considered.
edit lib/scripts/lyxpreview2bitmap.sh, remove line 131:
BAIL_OUT "Failed: ${LATEX} ${TEXFILE}"
replace it with
head -`grep -n 'begin{preview}' ${TEXFILE} | cut -d: -f1` ${TEXFILE} > wrongformula.tex
cat >> wrong formula.tex <<EOF
\fbox{WrongFormula}
\end{preview}
\end{document}
EOF
${LATEX} wrongformula.tex
/bin/mv -f wrongformula.log ${LOGFILE}
/bin/mv -f wrongformula.dvi ${DVIFILE}
The idea is simple:
1. replace the wrong formula with \fbox{WrongFormula} and write to file
wrongformula.tex. grep is used to find the line number of \being{preview}.
2. compile and replace LOGFILE and DVIFILE by wrongformula.log and .dvi
