(... as with any LaTeX command (keyword starting with a \.)

For me, also the key-binding Alt-M G p works
(with the last letter beeing a Latin transcription of the desired Greek one).

If you are going to be inserting many of these, it will save you time to
learn
the LaTeX commands: \pi, \phi, \theta, \sigma, and you can capitalize
the first
letter to get Greek capitals. You can just type these into math.

Do you have a configured *.ui file? 

What happens if you temporarily rename the ~/.lyx dir to ~/.lyx.bak, say
(assuming a Unix-like OS).

Lyx 1.5.0beta2 with Fedora 7: No math panel!

[Rudi Gaelzer]

I've just upgraded my system to Fedora 7, which comes with LyX 1.5.0beta2.
I'm having a problem I've never had before.  I cannot get the Math Panel to 
open.  When I click on Insert - Math - Math Panel, the bottom line shows: 
(dialog-show mathpanel), but the panel itself won't show up.

Is anyone having the same problem?

Besides that, how can I view the math toolbar?  On LyX 1.4.4 I just have to 
right click on the toolbar that I have the option to include the math toolbar 
on the display.

 There are two math toolbars now. The ordinary one and the former math panel.

Dear LyX users,

I think the Math Panel really IS gone in LyX 1.5.0b3, Intel, Mac OS
10.4.9. I've tried reinstalling and reconfiguring LyX, to no avail.
There is no VIewToolbarsMath Panel, only ViewToolbarsMath. The
Math toolbar works but lacks most of the Math Panel options (arrows,
Greek, etc). Nothing pops up as shown on that wiki page.

Works for me (Intel Mac, 10.4.9, LyX 1.5.0b3). Have you customized

Ah, that did it. (I also had to redirect the UI in Preferences back to
default from my customized file, of course). I had customized the
file back in 1.4.4, which screwed things up. Thanks!

Math Panel

I recently upgraded to v1.5b2 and I was wondering how I am supposed to
access math symbols like the different forms of equalities, like the is
proportional to, lessthan or equal to, or approximately equal to, since
the math panel has been turned into the math toolbar.  Am I just missing
something?  I did find the menu with the different delimeters, but I'm
not finding similar menus for the other types of symbols.

User math panel

Subject: Re: A debate topic: What can LyX still learn from scientific 
workplace?

[discussion on improvements of the toolobar with more math buttons]

Another way to tune the proposed math buttons to the particular user needs 
would be
to create a user math panel in which the user could paste the constructs 
frequently used
to retrieve them later, even in another document. 
This would solve also the problem of retrieval of the macros, as this math 
cache 
could include the currently defined math-macros.

The status of the user math panel should be of course subject to 
storage/retrieval.

This is not exactly a SW feature, I've used this 15 years ago with Publisher,
the Ann Arbor SGML instance of TeX.

That will need some more coding, I guesse adapting the current math panel to 
these needs
is not straightforward ?

I guess it will require more thinking about the UI than coding (apart from
the macros, their design is broken in general). As always, if you want this
to be remembered put it as enhancement request in http://bugzilla.lyx.org.

Math Panel not a window?

[Maria Gouskova]

I use Mac OS 10.4.6, LyX 1.4.1, but this was also the case in 1.3.7:

The default shortcut for closing a window in the mac bind file is Cmd 
+W, which closes any open document (as expected). But the Math Panel  
and other editing windows (e.g., Paragraph Settings, Edit Table)  
cannot be closed using Cmd+W--I've been closing them with the mouse  
(which I personally find a little distracting, since other programs  
on the Mac platform generally treat dialogs of this type as regular  
windows, and Cmd+W works on them).


Can something be added to the bind file to close these things with a  
key shortcut? Is this an intentional feature of the program, i.e.,  
does LyX for Windows also not treat dialogs/editing panels as non- 
windows?

Try esc to close all dialogs.

I'm sorry, I think I was too indirect in making my point. Closing the  
window is not something I am having difficulty with--I can do it, but  
it works differently from how things normally work in the OS. It  
therefore makes the Math Panel and other features of LyX kind of  
annoying. Would it be a hard quirk to eliminate?

[discussion on improvements of the toolobar with more math buttons]

Another way to tune the proposed math buttons to the particular user needs 
would be
to create a user math panel in which the user could paste the constructs 
frequently used
to retrieve them later, even in another document. 
This would solve also the problem of retrieval of the macros, as this math 
cache 
could include the currently defined math-macros.

The status of the user math panel should be of course subject to 
storage/retrieval.

This is not exactly a SW feature, I've used this 15 years ago with Publisher,
the Ann Arbor SGML instance of TeX.

That will need some more coding, I guesse adapting the current math panel to 
these needs
is not straightforward ?

I guess it will require more thinking about the UI than coding (apart from
the macros, their design is broken in general). As always, if you want this
to be remembered put it as enhancement request in http://bugzilla.lyx.org.

Re: Creating matrix without the use of Math Panel

[Uwe Sthr]

Hi Hannan,
I had been reading a bit your pdf file and i must say its very good and 
i learned from it a lot.
I must say that some of the things like \dfrac i hadn't succeed to apply 
in my LyX.
You can also have a look in the source file. I published it as LyX-file 
under

http://wiki.lyx.org/pmwiki.php/LyX/LyXMathebefehle#download
I was looking on your matrix section, trying to look for a way to create 
a matrix in the size I want without the need to to go to Math Panel. Do 
you know how to do it?
You can use the commands \matrix, \bmatrix etc. in a formula, to create 
a matrix box. Within the box use the menu Edit - Math to add and delete 
colums and rows (shortcuts M-m c i, M-m c d and M-m w i, M-m w d).
The next version of my doc will contain this information.

I hadn't seen in your article the use in M - ( or { or [ for creating a 
pare of ( ) or {} or []. Maybe its because i don't know so much 
German...:). (M - stand for alt).
The shortcuts for paranthesis pairs are described in chap. 5.1.2 as 
Alt-m Klammer, which means M-m parenthesis (e.g. M-m { ).

Hopefully I'll find some time to translate the document to english, so 
that everybody will be able to read it.

regards Uwe
