The 2.1.2.1 build is not better than 2.1.2 on Mavericks. You may use the Carbon package of 2.1.2 to get the correct on screen rendering. Stephan

This is a very cool idea, Andrew. Thanks for implementing that! I
don't have time right now to play with new toys but I look forward to
testing it someday.

Calculyx
I've written a LaTeX package called "calculyx" which numerically
evaluates mathematical expressions in LyX "before one's eyes" using
instant preview. It is written in the expl3 language of LaTeX3 but is
used just like any other LaTeX package. There is a link at
http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/Calculyx to a zipped archive currently in a
Dropbox folder, and a screenshot (.png format) of a one-page LaTeX
document and the resulting pdf with a few example calculations at
https://www.dropbox.com/s/7djkyjs44bpraol/Screenshot%202014-11-24%2013.52.07.png?dl=0.
The LaTeX may look complicated, but using LyX, all that is as ever
hidden. One simply enters expressions in the LyX math editor as usual.
Calculyx requires the three LaTeX3 bundles l3kernel, l3packages and
l3experimental. Because a main routine uses a command that was
introduced to l3kernel on 18 July 2014, the version of l3kernel must be
later than this. The calculational engine for calculyx is the floating
point module l3fp in l3kernel.
I have tried to ensure as much as possible that calculyx reads
expressions as mathematicians write them. For instance it will "digest"
\sin 3x - 3\sin x + 4\sin^{3} x (for a specified value of x, say \pi/6)
without parentheses around the arguments and with the superscript in the
"wrong" but familiar place. It will "digest" the common arithmetic
operators, plus variants like \times and \div, the familiar
trigonometric and hyperbolic functions and their inverses, the
exponential and natural logarithm, fractions (\frac, \tfrac), square
root and \surd, factorials ( using !), binomial coefficients (\binom,
\tbinom), \gcd, sums and products (\sum, \prod) including "infinite"
sums and products, limits (\lim), derivatives (1st and 2nd order),
including Cartesian 2-d and 3-d Laplacians, and definite integrals in
one variable. Results are generally presented in the form: expression =
result. There is also a (multi-column) table creating command and
another which will iterate a function (for the chaos theorists).
The package contains a novelty that I think could be exploited more
widely. Some calculations are computationally intensive. So as not to
burden the compilation of the pdf with them, these calculations can be
"parked" either in a LyX note or in an inactive branch. Instant preview
works in both places (with a caveat for LyX notes). The result of the
calculation can be saved to a LaTeX control sequence. Calculyx
automatically saves such control sequences to a file. They are then
available for inserting elsewhere in the document -- even at the start,
long before the place where the calculation is performed. If you are
prepared to set up a converter and copier, then the file containing the
control sequences can be saved in the document directory -- or copied to
other directories whereby the results of those "parked" calculations are
made available to these other documents. By this means selected items in
LyX notes or inactive branches can play a part in compilation to pdf.

Re: (Math) preview does not work in Yosemite
It seems now both my posts finally appeared on gmane. Just to complete this thread. Upgrading to the latest version of MacTeX solved the problem on both my computers.
Re: On screen math fonts
I can confirm this, also in 2.1.2.2. I also have had the problem with a one other symbol, but now I don't remember which.
On screen math fonts
Hi. I recently upgraded my LyX install to 2.1.2.1 on Mac OS X Mavericks, and I noticed that the on-screen character for \otimes is now rendered incorrectly as an A with umlaut, although the PDF output is correct. I haven't noticed this with any other symbols so far. Is this a bug, or some configuration issue? Thanks. -- Ernesto Posse Zeligsoft.com

I'd propose to make a copy of the 2.1.1 and try if it is better with 2.1.2 or 2.1.2.2. The fixes for Yosemite doesn't harm on Mavericks. The open file problem is not related to the Yosemite problems. I cannot remember what the reason was and how it was fixed. Stephan

Open File problem
Dear LyXers, My wife has LyX 2.1.1 under OS X 10.9.5 (Mavericks). When she tries to open a file, LyX pops a new LyX document up, which is immediately closed. No Open File dialog is shown. The same happens with New From Template. Is there a way to diagnose (and fix) this problem? Is it related to the Yosemite problems arising left and right? I wouldn't like to upgrade to Yosemite and thus to 2.1.1.2, unless it would be totally unavoidably, as remote user support is not my strong feature, and she would be left in dire straits. Thanks in advance. Regards, - Julio Rojas jcredbe...@gmail.com
