A perfectly good lyx file now presents the following LaTex error when I try to export as a pdf. Is there an easy way to degug and find the offending code? Paragraph ended before \url was complete. Many thanks in advance! Denné Denné Reed 2008-08-29T22:44:34 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49742 Every time I open the Math document in the Help menu, LyX 1.6rc1 crashes. All of the other help documents open without any problem. This occurs on Mac. I haven't been able to check on other platforms. Can anyone confirm this on other platforms?

When I try to put a limit with lyx within my report what I get is http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/7541/limitwa5.png as you can easily imagine i would to have the t to infinite under the limit and not as subscript.... someone know how to fix it?? thx! /davide newnoise 2008-08-29T09:52:12 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49722 Public release of LyX version 1.6.0 (release candidate 2) ========================================================= We are pleased to announce the second release candidate of LyX 1.6.0. LyX 1.6.0 will be the culmination of 12 months of hard work since the release of the LyX 1.5 series. We sincerely hope you will enjoy the result. As usual with a major release, a lot of work that is not directly visible has taken place. The core of LyX has seen more cleanups and some of the new features are the direct results of this work. The new features in LyX 1.6 are detailed in http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX16 The file RELEASE-NOTES lists some known issues with this release compared to the current stable release (LyX 1.5.6). An updated list of issues might later be found at http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/ReleaseNotes In case you are wondering what LyX is, here is what http://www.lyx.org/ has to say on the subject: LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based on the structure of your d José Matos 2008-08-29T09:28:08 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49717 I don't know if it is a known bug, but LyX 1.6-RC1 crashes whenever I try to copy a piece of text that contains ERT from one LyX document to another. Can anyone confirm this? Mukhtar Mukhtar Ullah 2008-08-29T08:03:34 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49709 Has anyone noticed that in 1.6rc1 using the tab key to skip through the three fields in the eqnarray environment does not function properly? Shift-Tab cycles in reverse as it has in the past, but Tab does not cycle forward... James James Sutherland 2008-08-29T03:40:20 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49708 Kudos to the development team for a fabulous 1.6! I particularly like the word completion and math macro features. Forgive me if this bug is already well known, but the context menus for math, macros, and tables all do not appear when those environments are active. I can turn them "on" but then they are always present. I really liked the "auto" feature in 1.5x, but it seems to be broken in 1.6rc1. I am running a Mac OS X 10.5.4. James James Sutherland 2008-08-29T02:33:01 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49702 I would like to use the following CTAN package (specifically, the 'brief' layout class) [1]. But for some reason, I cannot seem to get it to work in my setup. I've spent quite some time searching the internet for ways to accomplish this, but none make the document class appear in Document -> Settings -> Document Class. I use Lyx 1.5.6 on Mac OS X Leopard (10.5.4) using the MacTex / Tex Live 2007 distribution. Any help to make this work is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Daan [1] http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ntgclass/ Daan Stolp 2008-08-28T10:46:02 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49701 Dear LyX users, Attach: /home/milde/Texte/Test/LyX/nomencl.lyx did anyone else observe that since the switch to 1.5.6, the nomenclature is missing in the output? Or is this a special issue for me and my settings? How could I find out what is missing? (The nomenclature is printed if I export to LaTeX and run latex filename makeindex filename.nlo -s nomencl.ist -o filename.nls latex filename by hand. Attached a minimal example. Günter G. Milde 2008-08-28T10:42:32 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49695 When I use my mouse wheel in LyX it scrolls the page in rather large steps. Is there someway to change this step size? bigblop 2008-08-28T20:20:43 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49694 Hello, I picked extra and preview tool bars and drag to the right side of the screen. I put a tool bar at the top of the right border and then, the next tool bar below at the end of the first one. When I stop Lyx and then run it, second tool bar was go down. With each cycle of close and run, second tool bar go more down and disappears from view. I think that Lyx Team must improve grip of this area. I don´t know nothing about software but.. perhaps with a change of the rubber compound or installing a piece of Velcro... ;-) Regards Marcelo Marcelo Acuña visitá mi sitio web http://www.aleph-uno.com.ar ============================================================== Yahoo!

Then Lyx show text of ERT command superposed over text of paragraph. If I press Pg Dwn, other paragraph with same error are showed. Then, if I press Pg Up, paragraph are correctly showed. Regards.

Apologies to the developers if significant features had to be marginalised because I had to prioritise. A big thanks for pulling off another great release. http://www.linux.com/feature/145635 killermike 2008-08-28T17:22:59 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49677 Hi, I'm working with the book class in KOMA-Script, and am trying to change the page layout without success. When I insert BCOR and/or DIV factors, I don't get an error message, but I also don't see any difference in the resultant PDF. I checked the LaTeX log, and I see that the changes I input appear in the log but still... No visible effect. I also noticed the following: I defined the size of the paper as "custom" 24.5 cm width, by 28.5 cm length. In the log the paperwidth is 597.5 points, which figures just over 21 cm, by 845.05 points, i.e. 29.7 cm. In other words, it looks like something is "stuck" on A4, but what? The log records a bad DIV-value - and suggests increasing the DIV (no effect) or increasing the page size (I'm trying... but it won't accept it.) Help, anyone... NB 2008-08-28T17:23:21 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49676 Hi! all I have been unable to install the 1.6 RC1 on my Ubuntu Hardy box. Actually I can ./configure and make but "make install" keeps failing with the following log. make install-data-hook make[4]: Entering directory `/home/pan/My Downloads/lyx-1.6.0rc1/lib/lyx2lyx' chmod 755 /usr/local/share/lyx/lyx2lyx/lyx2lyx chmod: changing permissions of `/usr/local/share/lyx/lyx2lyx/lyx2lyx': No such file or directory make[4]: *** [install-data-hook] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/pan/My Downloads/lyx-1.6.0rc1/lib/lyx2lyx' make[3]: *** [install-data-am] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/pan/My Downloads/lyx-1.6.0rc1/lib/lyx2lyx' make[2]: *** [install-am] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/pan/My Downloads/lyx-1.6.0rc1/lib/lyx2lyx' make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/pan/My Downloads/lyx-1.6.0rc1/lib' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 Is it a bug of the LyX itself?

I would like to try out pgfplots and it would not appear to have been installed as part of the mactex download that I installed before installing Lyx. Neither Lyx nor Texshop can find it. I have been trying to work out how to install it (previously I have used MikTex on windows and this tends to be straightforward). But I cannot find a directory for Mactex. I have found a texmf directory, but it doesn't seem to have very much in it. So can someone point me towards some help, or indeed if its simple, tell me here.

Entering the author name or even the bibtex key does not find the citation within the document. At the moment I am generating a PDF of my document and then searching the PDF for the author name (I use author-year citations), but this is a hassle. Am I missing something? Or should this be a feature request? Thanks for the help, John John Niekrasz 2008-08-28T13:39:29 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49666 Hi, does anyone know hot to handle reprinted material using Bibtex? I have a book which has been reprinted. Should I add the year of the original printing to the title? Should I just stick to the reprinted book information? Or is there a "proper" way to cite reprinted books using Bibtex. Thx in advance. ------------------------------------------------- Julio Rojas jcredberry-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w< at >public.gmane.org Julio Rojas 2008-08-28T14:17:28 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/49664 I received a note from Jens Berger stating that jurabib is no longer being maintained. His website says this: jurabib is freezed at stage 0.61beta now due to spare time while working as a physician and being father of three children. If you are interested to become the new jurabib maintainer, please contact me. Take a serious look at the biblatex package. It is an amazing new tool without the mistakes that were made in the early years of jurabib. Does anyone know anything about biblatex? Can it be used with LyX? Does it support full citations in footnotes? Ibid.? Lou Louis A. Turk 2008-08-28T13:27:05 Search the mailing list at Gmane query http://search.gmane.org/?group=$group=gmane.editors.lyx.general
