The big problem with pstricks is that it doesn't work with pdflatex.
Should work with xetex, though.

Hi Phil and Liviu,

thanks for your ideas - interesting reading.

I found a solution using tikz:

Based on 
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/15990/draw-red-x-over-an-external-image-using-pgf-tikz
, I developed the solution attached - as described in the link, the
image is placed in a node, and one can draw.

The nice thing: the inserting of the picture can be done in LyX!

I will look into the pstricks solution, as it sounds also quite easy -
could you post a small example?

Thanks,

Rainer

maybe there is an easier way... but what I usually do is use pstricks with 
powerdot (I assume you can 

use the same technique with beamer) and then after I insert my graphic I add in 
a \psgrid to 

find the coordinates and then I put in a \psframebox or \psellipse where I want 
to highlight.

plotting over graph in Lyx / beamer presentation

2011-05-16 Thread Rainer M Krug
Hi

I want to plot a square / circle over a graph (in pdf format) to
highlight certain sections. I rmember that it is possible, but I do
not remember how.

Thanks,

Rainer
