* You can mark and copy the content of a math-box and insert it outside the math box. * You can use the plain math commands to produce or edit a math formula also inside the math box. (E.g., when writing \alpha, the characters will first appear in red and after a space turn into the greek letter.) This is what I usually do, except for seldom used commands where it is faster to insert from the toolbar than to look up the syntax. * You can (as already said) use the LaTeX view - either to copy the content or just to see where you are when editing inside the math box. * You could also use ERT (don't forget the $$ then) but this gives poor visual feedback. Feature request: ERT, footnotes, boxes, and comments can be converted to text by pressing <Backspace> when the cursor is at the begin of the box. -> It would be nict to have this feature for math-boxes too!
