First of all, let me say I'm using LyX, though I have no problem using ERT. Secondly, what is the most simplest way to draw a simple graph like this in Latex? I've seen some documents with graphs and I've seen some examples, but I couldn't figure out how to just draw a simple graph - what packages do I need, etc? ...
Hey guys, I'm trying to figure out how the books draw a box perhaps with different background around a digression/example? Preferably how this would be accomplished in lyx, but latex solution would be welcomed as well :D ...
I'm writing a booklet for my debate club in LyX, and it is a collection of Prep Cases - each prep case is a chapter. Currently I have a "new page" after every chapter, but I want something more - I want to make sure chapters begin in odd numbered pages, so that when I print the whole booklet in duplex - each prep case will be a standalon...
I'm using LyX all the time and over the last 2 years I've accumulated some very handy macros for my lecture notes. As it is today, every time I start a new document, I copy and paste the macros from one of my other documents. Is it possible, somehow, to automatically load macros for all files? ...

I have the sources, however, I can't understand what's going on over there, and I can't seem to render it using LyX. I have used LyX for quite a while and used some ERT (TeX code) now and again, but I am by no m...
I'm using LyX, but I guess a solution would be some TeX code. I'm writing a document in English and I want to insert some Hebrew text, but the document encoding doesn't let me. Using Hebrew encoding for the entire document doesn't work as it ruins the TOC, etc. Is there a way to locally change the text's encoding? ...

Hello. Complete LaTeX and LyX newbie here. I am currently writing a document in LyX and I'm using hyperref to have links in the ToC, citations etc. The problem is that I added a figure (with float) and when I make a cross-reference in the text, the reference itself becomes a link that leads to the page that contains the actual figure. F...
When I choose to insert an AMS Align environment in LyX, I only get two columns. I am pretty sure it is possible to get multiple columns. Thanks! ...
I have a group of equations and I'd like to show under some transformation, the system looks like something else.

I'm becoming more interested in markdown and rest for documentation/requisites in projects, but some people in the team aren't that techie to use and remember these markups. It's going to be a bad move to just adopt them when they're used to OpenOffice files. There is a visual editor for Latex, named Lyx, that is WYSIWYM and WYSIWYG, bu...
