Hit F10 this should transition you into English mode (there will be a blue line under the text. Make sure it works: restart LyX and try typing in Hebrew. Hit on the box next to shortcut and press F10.
On the windows just opened, under function, type language english (percisely!).
In the First box, enter null and in the Second box, enter hebrew. I recommend hitting Save as Document Defaults after changing the settings, so you won’t have to apply it to every document you create (although, if you mainly write stuff in English, you problably shouldn’t). On the left side, choose Language and again under Language, choose Hebrew. Go to Documents → Settings and under Document Class choose Hebrew (article).

During the installation, the installer will download MikTeX. The Actual Instructionsĭownload and install the latest version of LyX for Windows. Try to overcome the urge to Alt-Shift, or you’ll encounter problems inserting some letters, punctuation marks, equations, etc. Note: When you use LyX under these setting, Windows should always be in English mode, even when you want to type in Hebrew in LyX. It will automatically return to Hebrew when you exit math mode as well, of course. When you want to insert pretty math, you’ll just have to click Ctrl+ M - no annoying Alt-Shift to switch to English when it’s obvious that that’s what you want to do. You’ll be able to switch to English and back by pressing F10. When you’re finished following the steps in the instruction, LyX should operate like this: by default, it’ll let you type in Hebrew. After having gone through most of them, more or less (including a few months in anger management) I found all of them to be defective in one way or another (or at least, they did not work for me), I spent a few hours playing with the setting and it worked. And not only that, but using English when needed as well, without completely screwing up your paper. Pfffh! A lot of articles, tutorials, support groups and suicide letters are out there on the web for the sole purpose - writing Hebrew in LyX just right. So you want to use Hebrew with LyX under Windows.
