 Is there an easier way to do this than using tex to define door like, say,  sin or 
cos.
 I don't know how to do this in tex but I can look it up.
 I do hope there is an easier way.

subscripted text in math equations.

2001-05-31 Thread Ralph Boland

In my thesis I sometimes write things such as  ydoor(x)  in math mode where  door 
needs to be in normal font.
To write this I

  1) go into math mode,  and type y
  2) go into math mode again to toggle the text to normal format and type  door
  3) go into math mode again to toggle the text to math format
  4) type the rest of my equation.
  5) exit math mode.

This works find unless I use  door(x) in a subscript or superscript.  In the latter 
cases the
word door is subscripted or superscripted ok but is not shrunk in size like it should 
be.
Furthermore, lyx won't let me shrink it manually.

Is there an easier way to do this than using tex to define door like, say,  sin or cos.
I don't know how to do this in tex but I can look it up.
I do hope there is an easier way.

I had the same problem and fortunately the solution is very simple:
Layout/Document Layout/Extra/Use AMS Math
set this on and it'll be perfect!
