constructs; especially for math formulas when you use the option
``Instant Preview'' in Tools->Preferences->Look and feel->Graphics.
i'm not sure what you mean by whether my preferences are set
correctly? i have instant preview on and this setting is saved so
that every time i open up a new document, i can go into LyX >
Preferences... > Look and Feel > Graphics and see Instant Preview:
On. still, there is no change in the math font when i enter a
formula so instant preview isn't working.
oddly, however, nothing related to instant preview appears in the ~/
Library/Application Support/LyX-1.4/preferences file. but i'm not
sure this matters.
any other suggestions?
Try looking at the output in Console.app just after you create a new
equation (and move the cursor out of it so that LyX tries to generate
the preview). Does that tell you anything?
