Lines is array

[Julio Rojas]

Dear all, I have an array with fractions as elements, which is
rendered like this one:
http://upload.wikimedia.org/math/f/4/a/f4a5b1f44f4720ce28de1443b3a5b94f.png

There seems to be a solution, adding \\[0.3em] at the end of each line
in the array. The code will look like this:

\[
 M = \begin{bmatrix}
   \frac{5}{6}  \frac{1}{6}  0   \\[0.3em]
   \frac{5}{6}  0\frac{1}{6} \\[0.3em]
   0\frac{5}{6}  \frac{1}{6}
 \end{bmatrix}
\]

It should be rendered like:
http://upload.wikimedia.org/math/2/8/9/2898f4774c7df3ad83ad6d31c82c3bf5.png

The question is, how can I add the double slash in math environment?
Everytime I try to do it, a regular slash is rendered.

Thanks in advance.

Caption package does not work, I think.

 text; add blank line after Box caption too.

 this doesn't work with reference (/ref) or Formatted reference

Quick and dirty solution... Insert an additional line between each
pair of lines. ;)

from the EmbeddedObjects Help-menu 3.10:

It is also possible to set the caption beside a figure or table. To get this 
the LaTeX-package sidecap has to be loaded in the document preamble with the 
line
\usepackage[option]{sidecap}
If you set no option, the caption is placed on the side of the outer page 
margin – to the right on odd pages, to the left on even pages. You can change 
the placement to inner margin with the option innercaption. To force the 
placement always to the right or left, use the option rightcaption or 
leftcaption, respectively.

That LyX is not yet able to handle the \\[] command in math is a know limitation. A workaround for

 MikTeX created those directories for local settings when I originally

 You can, of course set up a custom location via the MikTeX settings

 I hope this adds a bit of information.

 really obvious.


 If they are using MiKTeX:

 1.  They can run the MiKTeX Settings application (from the Start menu)
 and go to the Roots tab.  That lists the directories on the search path
 MiKTeX uses.  They can create their local texmf folder anywhere they want,
 then just add it to that tab (Add... button) and move it up to the top of
 the search chain.

 2.  After adding anything to their local texmf directory, they should run
 the Settings application, and on the General tab click Refresh FNDB (which
 runs texhash to update the LaTeX file databases).
