Oh, I see...
They also wrote this line under that figure: "For ASYMPTOTE versions ≥
1.14, you can simply call PDFLATEX directly" - but I have misunderstood
it, probably; I thought it meant that in this specific case (version ≥
1.14), I *don't* need to do that.
Well, then...
I am looking for a workaround now.
Is it possible to export a LyX document to a TeX document without losing
data? Then, I'll be able to do what they suggest in the documentation.
Thanks,
Peleg.
