First of all, many thanks to the developers from implementing the support for cross- references to external documents. It's been 20+ years since I suggested this feature: https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg43282.html[1] All this time, I've been using the xr and xr-hyper packs and doing the X-refs manually.
Now, In my first tests, I've been noticing some strange behavior. I think I'm doing everything as per the instructions in section 6.1.1 of the User Guide. The attached files contain my simple tests. First I edited test_cross1.lyx (TC1). Then, while editing test_cross2.lyx (TC2), I opened TC1 in order to insert the refereces into the referring document. The x-refs worked all right. More interestingly, if I close all documents and then open only TC2, the x-refs will still work. This is how I created the attached test_cross2.pdf. However, in test_cross3.lyx I inserted x-refs from both TC1 and TC2 and now the equation numbers from TC2 were rendered weirdly, as you can see in test_cross3.pdf. Again, if I close everything and then open only TC3, the equation numbers seem to be identified, despite the ugly red boxes, but the renderization of the references from TC2 are once again weird. Could you run my tests and verify if you get the same outputs? In fact, I'm trying to employ the feature with a new text I'm editing right now, which refers to several equations in several very large earlier documents. In this "real-world" usage case, the behavior is even weirder. At first, with only two docs being referred-to, the x-refs seemed to work, but after some additional text and refs from a third doc were included, the feature stopped working altogether, regardless on whether I open all documents or not. -- Rudi Gaelzer Physics Institute - UFRGS BRAZIL Registered Linux user # 153741 -------- [1] https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg43282.html
