I am trying to use the package siunitx for correct typesetting of SI
units with LyX. However, I run into a problem when attempting to enter
a number with units in math mode.
In LaTeX, one would enter
$a = \SI{50}{\metre\per\second\squared}$
However, in LyX, the second set of curly braces does not seem to be
associated with the initial command, which leads to them being escaped
with backslashes, thus:
$a = \SI{50} \{ \metre\per\second\squared \} $
This does not render correctly.
Is there any way around this?
I am using LyX 2.0.0RC1 on Windows XP, but please let me know if this
is possible in 1.6!
Thanks!
