Re: mathed78.diff
I've found another bug: The size of big operators in display equation is like in inline equation and not bigger. [...] Ok. I had a couple of hours sleep over it. Mathed is currently broken and unusable for serious work. I have stated this several times already. Mathed is after application of the current patch (i.e. 78) still broken and unusable for serious work. Mathed will remain broken and unusable for serious work until the remaining bits are finished or unless a complete roll back to the state of January happens. The remaining bits are more or less the iterator/cursor and the display size stuff and comprise perhaps 10% of the whole thing, rather less I guess. The old math cursor and the new multicell stuff are not overly compatible. mathed78.diff marks some kind of niche of peaceful co-existence between the two (there are a few three-line-changes that would move us closer to the center of that niche, but that's rather cosmetics...) Most of the current problems are certainly fixable by throwing enough glue code between the cursor and the multicell stuff. This mean un-doing some of the separation work and would be a major hindrance for exactly those 10% of the work that remain. There is always the option of a complete roll back so nothing is really lost. Working on glue that will get thrown out in a few weeks is wasted time and annoying. So I simply won't do it.

Bolzano, here I come
Hi, I've booked my flight to the Famous LyX Drinking Meeting: I'm leaving from Copenhagen the 22th of June, and arrive in Milan at 14.10. I'm going home from Milan the 26th of June at 13.50. That should be enough time to get drunk and sober a few times. Jurgen, I hope you can pick me up at the station in Bolzano, but we can coordinate that later. See you, Asger

Andre This would surely be possible, but some this means hiding
Andre some of the macro's context. I don't know whether this is a
Andre good idea.
Is it possible to do you new style editing only when there is a
repeated argument in the definition?
Well... we could try that. There is no obvious solution though.
The old style (inline) editing was only possible by the (ab)use of
the macro template itself for drawing which is breaks with nesting of macros
of the same kind.
Nowadays inline editing would mean to make macros some kind of 'multicell
inset with dynamic layout' (sort of \sqrt[]{} and \frac, but varing
positions for the nested parts). Probably doable, but not in five minutes.
I even like the 'multicell' part since this would mean more code sharing
with the other insets (macros are still somewhat special...)
Personally, I'd like to have some visual feedback
(a) that I am editing macro arguments at all
(b) the name of the macro I am editing
(a) is easy with another box color or so, (b) could be done with the
minibuffer, so I am really not religuos about the current layout.
But I'd put that in the cosmetics category I you don't mind...

My locally compiled lyx-1.1.6fix2 (with gcc-3.0) works pretty well. You might consider recompile lyx with gcc-3.0 to work around the slownes instead of exporting to latex and compile by hand. Curiously, I don't see this problem on my system. Maybe I should test some more. BTW, do you know whether the real maintainer will release lyx 1.1.6fix2 anytime soon?

I guess he has a good reason for not regularily updating the Debian package. Maybe he cares mostly about stable releases (which is a very good reason IMHO)? I don't have as much time for maintaining LyX as I'd like, but the decision not to upload 1.1.6fix1 was deliberate, and, I think, discussed on this list. 1.1.6fix2 hasn't been out for that long...

Though I still prefere Lyx for writing my scientific documents (especially because of the good documentation that come with it), texmacs has several features that would make LyX even better. First of all, several aspects of texmacs math-editor are faster and more intuitive. A few examples: to write LaTeX' \Longleftrightarrow (which is quite slow and unfriendly) you simply write in sequence ==; = automagically becomes a Latex \ge, = a \Rightarrow, and so on (a disadvantage of LyX is that if you want to edit formulas fast and with all the needed symbol, the best way is learning by heart LaTeX math-mode commands). Moreover, it displays screen output (almost) exactly as the printed document will be: so, the foresaid == wouldn't be displayed as it is, instead, as soon as you digit the last and strike the spacebar, it would become a PostScript-like-looking equivalence symbol. So, I think that taking a look at texmacs to use some of its best aspects in Lyx would be a good thing. Then, there are a couple of things I've always been thinking about since I started using LyX (that is a really GREAT application, anyway). First, I've always missed a header/footer editor. Documents have to be nicely printed and organized, of course, and LyX does it with really few human efforts. But documents might be also nice looking, or personalized, and this is quite difficult if you don't have a good TeX/LaTeX background, and a friendly editor (especially for fancy headers) to allow the user to customize the size of the rules, the content of the header on the left, the header on the right, and so on, would be quite good. Second... wouldn't it be nice to make it easier to add Xfig's .pslatex to a document?? This is not all, but it is enough :) Thanks for Lyx, good Job Daniele --- End of forwarded message ---

Open a new document, insert a table, and press the font button - LyX crashes. 2. Insert a figure float into a document, then insert a minipage into the float. Enter some TeX code in the minipage (use CTRL+Returns). Move the cursor (leave the minipage, enter it again, etc.) and try to select/cut/paste some text from time to time. After a few operations you will notice that the text selection is not correct any longer (the wrong selection is marked). 3. The Apply button in the character layout dialog does not work correctly because it is deactivated after the first application. 4. In the label dialog, could you please rearrange the buttons? I am used to click the right-most button in order to cancel a dialog. 5. If you open a float with a figure as its first element, the figure dialog is always opened at the same time. 6. captions are still not handled correctly on screen. 7. In the include file dialog, the load button does not work. I just get the console message OkCancelReadOnlyPolicy: No transition for input 3 from state 0 8. Opening and closing of floats only raises the console message A truly unknown func! 9. Create a new 5x5 table and insert e e e e ... in the first cell until the cell becomes larger than the screen, then (if you have luck and LyX does not repaint infinitely!), move one cell down and try to insert some text - the red box is not drawn correctly 10. When cutting normal text (no floats, no minipages, just plain text), the cursor is not moved correctly. Instead it stays at the same position (on screen). This is, of course, wrong. The cursor should be moved right in front of the text which has been cut. ARGHH. THIS IS CRITICAL - LyX crashes after a several operations! 11. During compilation gcc -Wall reports a couple of warnings that might be fixed.

Well the problem is you used the Alignment fields also. This alignment
fields are exclusive, this means that if you fill them in they are used
and not others! You put there an l for left-aligned so obviously LyX
did output the table with an l alignment and not with the p{5cm} alignment
it would if you would have left that field empty.
Hope this helps,

Another solution is to define your own textclass which uses sans serif

You are indeed supposed to apply the fix2 patch on top of the fix1

I don't have as much time for maintaining LyX as I'd like, but the
decision not to upload 1.1.6fix1 was deliberate, and, I think,
discussed on this list. 1.1.6fix2 hasn't been out for that long... I
have packaged it, and I will upload it shortly if there are no

LyX Developers Guide
Hello, I have a student working for a few weeks on a small project whose goal is to interface LyX with the computer algebra system MuPAD. Well, actually this is the second time I propose this project. Last summer two other students of mines worked on it. Basically, it could take a lyx text paragraph, send it to MuPAD, get back the result as a piece of LaTeX, and integrate it as an equation in the LyX document. However it was too buggy and experimental to propose it for integration into LyX. I hope to get a little bit further this time! It would be useful for my new student to have access to the developers guide. It seems the link from http://www.devel.lyx.org/references.php3 to http://www.devel.lyx.org/devel/devguide.html seems to be broken. Thanks in advance! Have a nice day, Nicolas -- Nicolas M.

How long do you need? Note that it will be possible to continue updateing the docs in 1.2.x, x0 Amount of time isn't as big an issue as not knowing when the interface will settle down, and I really don't want to redocument it six times - none of us has the time to do that. I'm hoping that 1.2.0pre0 will freeze the basic interface/keybindings/commandline for at least a few versions; if so, then I would like to have the docs _completely_ updated and correct for 1.2.0 proper. The primary reason the docs are currently lagging is simply that many things have changed since 1.1.5 and are continuing to change, as indicated by the spate of messages over the last couple of days. The UI changes from 1.0.0 through 1.1.5 are actually quite small compared to 1.1.5 - current CVS. (LyX's guts changed considerably over that time, but the UI didn't). Of course, new features added after 1.2.0 will require new documentation, but I'd like existing features, like the change to math arrays, to be settled before we sharpen our pencils. (can you sharpen a keyboard ? :-) ) Sorry to be a pain in the posterior hinterregions about this, but the recent UI changes have been rather dizzying. Complicating things for me personally are the fact that I can't use 1.1.6fixX at work due to the incomplete table support, so I haven't gotten used to that yet, and CVS is also changing too fast for me to grab a stable copy and try to do some real work with it (can a useful snapshot be made occasionally?). We're just in an exciting, rapidly changing phase, and the docs are going to lag as a result - we can't document a feature before it's finished! This brought up the idea of an Errata section on the Web.
