Re: LyX preview problem
Stephan, Yes! going to document settings, fonts, and then unclicking “Use non-Tex fonts…” solves the problem with displaying my diagram. Thank you. Now with that option unchecked, I cannot typeset my document using command-R. I guess I can use other ways to view my output, though. Do you know why command-R doesn’t work? Is there a way to fix that? Before my update I did not encounter this, so something must be different now!

Re: LyX preview problem
Stephan, Yes! going to document settings, fonts, and then unclicking “Use non-Tex fonts…” solves the problem with displaying my diagram. Thank you. Now with that option unchecked, I cannot typeset my document using command-R. I guess I can use other ways to view my output, though. Do you know why command-R doesn’t work? Is there a way to fix that? Before my update I did not encounter this, so something must be different now!

Re: LyX preview problem
Stephan, Yes! going to document settings, fonts, and then unclicking “Use non-Tex fonts…” solves the problem with displaying my diagram. Thank you. Now with that option unchecked, I cannot typeset my document using command-R. I guess I can use other ways to view my output, though. Do you know why command-R doesn’t work? Is there a way to fix that? Before my update I did not encounter this, so something must be different now!

I don’t recall having this problem before my upgrade to Mavericks. And very odd that is crops up in one file but not another. It looks like python fails to process something… Hi Dough, note the difference in the two calls: the 2nd one has an additional switch "--latex=xelatex".

Here are two lyx files. The one titled displays.lyx displays my diagram. The other one does not. Doug, that's better. But I have to say: both are working on my system - a Mac with LyX-2.1.2 on OS X 10.8.6. I've noticed I have to click somewhere sometimes to trigger the display of the preview snippet. The two examples are different only regarding the \use_non_tex_fonts and the \font_roman setting in the preferences. What you can do to check for errors converting is to open the message pane and enable the graphics conversion message. There you should see the problem if one exists.
