Hi,
I'm new to Lyx and need to know if there is a way to change an equation that's been written in LaTex ( or using the 'tex' command tool in Lyx ;to appear in Lyx format in the actual lyx file where you are writing( i.e. before compiling).
Many thanks!

Re: LaTex into Lyx before compiling
I assume you mean equations which are entered inside the ERT boxes in LyX. You may try this: Right Click on the ERT box containing a "plain" LaTeX code for equation > Dissolve inset > Select the text > Ctrl+M (which is a shortcut for "Insert Math"). Another way would be to export your document as a .tex file, then import it in LyX again.

Thank you. That's exactly what I wanted.
