Dear all This request comes up every now and then, and was even part of our aborted GSoC 2011.
But I was wondering whether there was a simple solution to this, namely re-using the Instant Preview machinery. I am not familiar with it's internals, but I understand that to display the LaTeX results the IP uses the 'preview' package to generate images and then embeds these into the LyX editor window. If I am getting this right, then LyX will have already generated an image out of a formula. How difficult would it be to add a 'Save IP' (or similar) to the c-menu of a math inset and allow users to export the image? Since LyX already knows how to convert a whole lot of formats, the dialogue could allow to save to all image formats known to LyX. If the generated image were in a vector format, then the whole process would be perfect. Do you think that this is feasible?
