Due to a nasty mechanical problem with my normal computer I am having to
haul an older laptop out of retirement for a while while repairs or a
replacement for the main machine is decided upon.
Unfortunately this means installing a lot of software on a relatively new
Windows 7 OS rather than sticking with my normal Ubuntu 14.04 (sob) and I
am trying to get things to look as normal as possible in Windows.
About three or four years ago I did a bit of customizing of the LyZ
appearance. I had counted the number of icons on the two task bars and came
up with 55 icons. I don't normally use more than 6-8 regularly and so I
decided to remove most of the icons. I also added the newly edited task bar
to the full-screen (F11) LyX appearance and adjusted the text width. As I
dimly remember it was tedious and a bit picky but not very difficult,
I could have sworn I did my editing in one or more files in the ui folder
but I cannot seem to find the the same things I thought I had remembered.
Am I just not reading the files correctly or am I in the wrong place? If
so, where would I look. Googling does not seem to bring up whatever I found
last time and, if it is in the manuals, I have failed to find it.
For that matter, if the edits are in the ui folder or wherever, could I
just copy them from my damaged machine and paste them into LyX on Windows?
It is still operational (with care) and I have not sent it off for repairs
yet. Both machines are running LyX 2.1.3.
Pointers and suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
john
