I am trying to use LyX on a Mac. I have installed everything that

I am having trouble getting images to display in views. When I try

slideDemo2.pdf

This was with the Foils template, but I get the same response with
any other template. If I manually create the .Z file, it does show
the image.
What do I need to do to get images to display in views?
As Georg said, it's a known bug. The workaround is to convert
your .eps images to .pdf manually (Preview.app should do fine for
this) and select the .pdf version from within LyX.
