Hi
I am new to LaTex/MiKTeX and Lyx.
I have loaded MiKTeX and LyX 2.3.61
I have also installed the packages:
actuarialsymbols
actuarialangle
in MiKTeX to create actuarial symbols.
How do I use these packages in LyX?
eg: \actsymbol{A}{x}

Hi Bill,
If you want to use a package that is not internally supported by LyX,
you have to add it manually in the preamble and put the desired command
into a TeX Code inset (aka ERT).
Add the package to the preamble:
1. Select "Settings" in the "Document" menu which opens the "Document
Settings" dialog.
2. In the dialog, select "LaTeX Preamble" on the left side and put
\usepackage{actuarialsymbols}
\usepackage{actuarialangle}
3. Press "OK" in the dialog.
Put the command into a TeX Code inset:
1. Put the cursor where you want to add the command in your document.
2. Insert "TeX Code" from the "Insert" menu (there is also a shortcut
indicated next to the menu which allows you to do this quicker).
3. In TeX Code inset (red box) add your command, e.g. \actsymbol{A}{x}.
