In the Math.lyx help file, in section 23, Computer Algebra Systems, I find written: "LyX offers the exchange between mathematical expressions written in LyX's math editor and external applications or user defined scripts. Currently supported applications are Maple, Mathematica, Maxima and Octave. Note that the set of supported mathematical constructs is limited only to very simple cases." In subsection 1 (Usage), it says: "Write some expression in a formula, go to the Edit->Math->Use Computer Algebra System menu and choose the application you have installed on the computer." Now, it happens that in my installation (version 2.4.3), the Edit menu does not have the Math item, nor anywhere else. Does anyone know if this item has been removed? Thanks in advance. Cesare -- lyx-users mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users Dear Cesare, I think you need to include the path to your math system’s executable in the path variable in Lyx’s preferences. Have you done it already, Cesare? -- lyx-users mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users Have you reconfigured Lyx Cesare after having added the path? And maybe restart it again too. Which math soft are you using by the way? I had not reconfigured, now I did it and restarted LyX. But nothing to do, in the Edit menu the Math item does not appear. In path I added C:\maxima-5.47.0\bin. I also tried with C:\maxima-5.47.0\bin\maxima.bat. -- lyx-users mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users Strange. In the past I was able to use it with Maxima and now it finds Maple on my Macbook and can do some computations. My ideas stop here. Sorry Cesare. Maybe someone has more suggestions. Thanks Murat for your help. I hope someone knows how to fix this. Cesare
