Re: knitr (Rnw) module: \Sexpr in Inline Math
That should be the best solution for this particular case, but you are
right this problem needs to be solved at a lower level in knitr or
Sweave, or LyX's math mode. The difficulty on R's side is from parsing
\Sexpr{} using regular expressions. In your case, the R code should be
0.5^{2} but knitr sees 0.5^{2 because } terminates the code.

When I tried to do that in inline math via \Sexpr{0.5^2} then the
display becomes 0.5² meaning that LyX correctly thinks I want LaTeX-ish
0.5^{2}, but R will choke on that literal "{" in there.
Ok I found a workaround for my specific issue, which is to use the
alternative \Sexpr{0.5**2} for the exponent.
Sorry for the noise, but suggestions / ideas are welcome anyway.
knitr (Rnw) module: \Sexpr in Inline Math
Dear LyX Users and Developers,
today I tried to use the knitr (Rnw) module successfully when accessed
from Insert > Custom Insets > S/R expression.
When I tried to do that in inline math via \Sexpr{0.5^2} then the
display becomes 0.5² meaning that LyX correctly thinks I want LaTeX-ish
0.5^{2}, but R will choke on that literal "{" in there.
I am sure this must have occurred to someone already and I wonder how
that was solved.
On researching on this I found things like fake math macros and such
which I am not comfortable with (plus looking for "cleaner" solution). I
am thinking of modifying the \Sexpr so that the input to it is done
literally in the same way as the custom S/R expression inset. Or is this
one indeed solved canonically with math macros?
Best Regards,
Michael Bach

The list of Styles (like section, title, definition) should also contain the --- separator --- dummy style. (The same effect can be achieved by a LyX-Note in an otherwise empty Standard paragraph.)
