Hi, I'm not a Latex/lyx expert but I have the same kind of problems with GNUPLOT in Lyx as you have. I've been searching for a solution for centuries, and for me it boils down to this: % <<<<<<<WARNING>>>>>>> % PGF/Tikz doesn't support the following mathematical functions: % tan, cosh, acosh, sinh, asinh, tanh, atanh % Plotting will be done using GNUPLOT % GNUPLOT must be installed and you must allow Latex to call external % programs by % Adding the following option to your compiler % shell-escape OR enable-write18 % Example: pdflatex --shell-escape file.tex Maybe this is some help to you. My question to you is: How do you add such a command to your compiler? (I wouldn't know where to start, I'm only using Linux for 3 months now) Peter
