Yes, I have already reported this in the developper's list.

Yes. This bug was introduced in 1.4.x.

Apparently, mathed windows dont scroll horizontally. My workaround has
been to reduce the screeen fonts to 80% before editing such large formulas
(or xy-pic diagrams).

Yes, it will really get bad, when when your document grows in size. Lyx may
freeze your computers for several minutes before you can start editing.
Even after that scrolling is so slow, its a pain ... .

> Has anyone by any chance noticed this kind of behaviour?

My solution was to switch back to 1.3.7. I am happy with LyX again, ever
since.
