Hello,
I'm having problem in LyX 2.0.0rc3 (ubuntu has some lag) with a very simple
test document.
I insert an eps file with Insert -> Graphics and I can display the document as
a pdf file (pdflatex) and as a ps file.
That works fine,
Then I add an ERT

and it

Hi.
Not really lyx related but someone might perhaps know how to produce nice eps
drawings of a volume of rotation. You know the kind of picture you usually
find in your calculus textbook where the graph of f(x) rotates around the
x-axis.
Any ideas?

I'm not really sure what is going on here. I thought I had it working.
Any ideas, anyone?

In many textbooks you "show" that (a+b)(a+b)=a^2+2ab+b^2 by drawing arrows

Now, why can't I use these letters?

Sorry, I was wrong. Problem not solved. I just forgott to switch back into

Problem remains, how to use /tmp as temp. directory for LyX and how to use

One option is to first determine the style before I write it, but I'd rather

Any advice from you is appreciated.
