Re: Macros and Parent/Child Documents in 1.6
I actually experience the same issue, but with macros that take no arguments as well as with macros that do take arguments.

James A point of clarification: when I click on an equation, the math-mode preview is correct (the macro is properly expanded). It is the displayed equation in LyX, after exiting math mode, that is incorrect (the macro is not expanded). James
