I am using lyx to write my thesis and having major problems. The program continually crashes and mostly forms an emergency file but sometimes not. The document seems to get messed up regardless. Sometimes just out of the blue the formatting for the document changes. This happens after I have been working on the document for some weeks. It may just be in a section but then it will change the whole document. Things it changes are: The word font changes The word size changes The line spacing changes Seems to put everything in maths font Things that were in maths code are no longer in maths code. Changes symbols Changes numbers with other numbers Tries to put stuff on one line or on different lines Deletes sub sub-sections Sub-section name size changes Changes order of things that were already ordered Orders stuff that is not meant to be ordered Seems to copy sections Whole sections are repeated Work that was cleared up and spelling fixed seem to go back Seems to fuse everything together.
The document class is American Mathematical Society (AMS) Article I can send a document sample if this helps I am using Windows 10 and lyx version 2.1. Hoping you can give me some advice I just seem to be redoing stuff and it gets better just for the same thing to happen again. William Balthes
