I used to be able to go backwards: copy an equation in keynote, paste it on latexit, and latexit would show the latex commands that produce the equation. After a fresh reinstall (system+mactex), I lost the ability to link back to latexit, and I forget how I had done it in the first place. Any ideas?

Howdy,

It seems to work fine if you drag and drop on the display pane of the LaTeXiT window. Note: NOT the lower pane where the input goes but the upper pane where the typeset version is displayed.

Good Luck,
