When I use the \underbar I get an error message. See them below.
In math box, I type
x
\underbar{x}
\underbar{\alpha}
You don't need the braces, just press Spacebar to finish a command. For
more info about formulas, have a look at the Math manual that you find
in the Help menu of LyX.
What I get is the following.
First, x is italics.
This is correct. Variables are italic in math. That's the common
typesetting rule.
Second, OK, x comes with underbar, *but* pdf is not italic.
You need to use \underline instead of \underbar. You can alternatively
use the corresponding math toolbar button to achieve this.
Third, crashes with the following errors:
$x$ $\underbar{x}$ $\underbar{\alpha}
$
I've inserted a begin-math/end-math symbol since I think
you left one out. Proceed, with fingers crossed.
If this problem persits, please provide a _small_ LyX example file.
