The formatting it does is fascinating. Simply adorable... LyX is a comfortable formula editor. a VERY comfortable one. Math inserts just on the fly of thoughts... I thought I could export to opendocument, where formulas are editable... Then, I could send it to anybody - and anybody could edit the math.... Now I see that opendocument export is unavailable in LyX. Unavailable even for expert users. Then, I have to (I unfortunately have no other choice) uninstall LyX and to continue using Open Office Org Writer to insert formulas. That one is really very uncomfortable. You have to type the TeX code in manually. I had been doing it for several months when I found LyX this week. I thought it was the solution to my plenty of math. It turned out that it isn't... I am really very sorry.
