Thank you for your answers, Hi Cyril, I have little experience with this kind of thing, but you should take a look at the converters section in Help > Customization. You could create a format "pdfA" (or "PDF (Asymptote)" ) and then a converter latex -> pdfA and add your commands there. Best, Scott Ty Scott, That is eactly what I did, but the problem is "which commands ??". Since I have to execute 3 commands in just one converter. The documentation does'nt explain how to manage with this. Best, Cyril

You can use the default converter shipped by LyX (scripts/convertDefault.py) as a template, and instead of calling convert, call your three commands in a row. Georg

Best, Scott More precisely, the biggest question I have is: The converter is from what initial format ? I guess the final is PDF. But the initial one is LaTeX, LyX,...?

In that case, use "LaTeX (pdflatex)" (code name pdflatex in the preferences file), and your three commands are pdflatex myfile.tex asy myfile-* pdflatex myfile.tex If you use TeXLive, you can even use latexmk instead of a wrapper script (from http://asymptote.sourceforge.net/doc/LaTeX-usage.html): latexmk -pdf myfile The final format is the new PDF variant you need to define. Otherwise your new converter would overwrite the default, and this would cause errors for files without asymptote code. Georg
Lualatex at startup
Dear all, I have just tried to install Lyx 2.1 on my Windows 7 PC on which I already had Lyx 2.0.6 and TexLive 2013, so I went the update way. During configuration, Lyx runs LuaLatex which in turn gets stuck and start bloating and eating all the resources. I tried killing the script (python.exe). Lyx starts telling me that there were no classes installed. I tried reconfigure, but had the same result. Has somebody had this problem? Thanks in advance. Regards. - Julio Rojas jcredbe...@gmail.com
