After a couple of test, I decided to move the temp directory to a location
where the path has no spaces on it, c:\temp, and modify the path for the
python script so it also has no spaces in it, c:\program
files\lyx\resources\lyx\scripts to c:\progra~1\lyx\resources\lyx\scripts,
and the result is that instant preview for math formulae started to work.
Conclusion is that python has problems with spaces in the path. Really?

In version 1.3.5, having instant preview active, the display of math
formulas on screen is done, and after checking in the temp directory, you
see there some files, that generates the graphic on screen
(0lyxpreview.dvi,
0lyxpreview.metrics, 0lyxpreview.ps, 0lyxpreview.log, 0lyxpreview.tex)
In version 1.3.6, with the same equation, the only file that appears is
0lyxpreview.tex, so it means that the conversion script is either not
found
or is not able to generate the needed files.
I'll send you a snapshot of the screen, having version 1.3.5 on the left
and
its files in the temp directory and version 1.3.6pre in the right side,
also
with the temp directory, so you can see the files generated.
I guess this is a problem of finding a script. The older version had a
lot
of problems with spaces inside paths. I don't know about the new one.

Eugenio

I cannot reproduce this. Don't you see constructs like a fraction when
choose one from the math panel or what is the problem?
What do you have to "tune" in LyX 1.3.5 to get it work? - For me it works
without any specials.
