The script that you call can run any code using the gnuplot "system" call. That is the same as having access to a shell... If the gnuplot files that you use are your own, or from one that you trust, then there is no risk... or actually the same risk that you had if you run the script outside of LyX. -- José Abílio -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

But then you should be comfortable dealing with the related issues: Copy the lyx2lyx directory from the newer version. Case in point. I have the same issue on Fedora.

If you insert the tikz code inside a preview box the figure will be
shown immediately, if you click over it you will see the code.
The preview box can be inserted in the same way as the tex code:
Insert -> TeX Code
Insert -> Preview
You are still responsible for adding the correct tikz code...

The advantage would be that the script of the pyxplot figures will be

I remember a similar discussion several years ago regarding gnuplot figures and
I remember to have seen some basic templates.
The only reason for them not to be accepted in LyX is the absence of a safe
mode. It is possible to use the system to pass 'cd ~; rm -rf *'.
For personal use it is OK.
I hope this helps. Regards,

it is easier to learn and use as is TikZ. I guess what one needs is
something adequate to \usepackage{pgfplots}, namely
\usepackage{pyxplot}. But I don't know what the former does and how
difficult it is to produce it.
The advantage would be that the script of the pyxplot figures will be
storred in the lyx file and that the text of the figures has the same
latex format and size as the document text.
