On current master, if zoom is at 10% and you run

  buffer-zoom-in -1

then the LFUN is not disabled and status shows:

  Zoom level is now 10% (buffer-zoom-in -1)

With my patch, I think the LFUN is disabled and status shows the same as

  buffer-zoom-out -1

which is:

  Zoom level cannot be less than 10%.

I did not double check the above though. That's just from memory.

So we can call it a feature that the LyX inset causes an error if used
in Hebrew because it's better than silently having the wrong direction
like \LaTeX{}?
:)

It seems arbitrary to mark it as English but that is indeed what we do
with our Hebrew Intro guide.

I think you are referring to the install-tl-ubuntu script. It is indeed
scary particularly because it requires sudo. I'm not proud of that.

Perhaps this does the trick in a less scary way:

mkdir "/tmp/HebrewFonts" &&
cd "/tmp/HebrewFonts" &&
wget 
"http://archive.debian.org/debian/pool/main/i/ivritex/ivritex_1.1.1-6_all.deb;

For Greek with 8-bit fonts, such macros must be wrapped in \textlatin (or
set to a Latin-using language) due to the Greek fonts missing latin letters.
(\textlatin is defined by Babel.)

This may be similar for hebrew.

No Daniel,
the 'Select default master document' is open as you might want to use it 
as a child in another document, the then master. So you should not be to 
much concerned about this.


When you use/create/include a child document using > Insert > File > 
Child Document you will be presented the Child Documents option in the 
Documents Setting dialogue. And to me this is correct behavior.


If you do use child documents then the settings and preamble are stored 
in the master will rule (although there are some exceptions, e.g. 
modules that need to be set in a child's preamble).


That too is proper behavior in my opinion because otherwise you would 
have to write preambles and settings for each single child document. And 
you would not use the master-child concept for small documents - would you?


Now, as a consequence you most probably get an error when trying to 
compile a child document because it needs the settings of the master. 
You have to save the child first and then compile the master.


That is why I think your statement 'Most of the time they don't compile 
properly on their own anyway' is inappropriate.


Hope that I did not misunderstand you but this is what I have here.

Cheers,

Michael

Input adds space

[racoon]

I just ran across a problem when inputting files. Apparently LaTeX adds 
a space after the inputted file.


http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/18017/space-inserted-after-input-call

For me this led to a strange larger space being added after the inputted 
file which was supposed to be only the first part of a paragraph.


Maybe there could be a checkbox in the Child Document dialog that reads 
something like "remove space after child" or so when the Include Type is 
Input. This then automatically adds the \unskip or \endinput command. 
Maybe that should even be the default?

I will have to remove C++11-isms though.


Go ahead.

Mark line(s) on Reverse search instead of close position

[racoon]

On Reverse search LyX puts the cursor at a position only *close* to but 
not exactly at the position chosen in the pdf document. It is a bit 
tricky for me to always find the former position in my document. Since 
it is anyway not the exact position maybe it is possible to select the 
whole line(s) rather than a close position?


For example, the PDF reader SumatraPDF does this on Forward search. In 
this way the position is quicker to find.

Enable View master document even if there are no child documents

[racoon]

Hi,

I almost never View child documents. Most of the time they don't compile 
properly on their own anyway. So I would like to remove the View button 
from my interface. Unfortunately, the View master document button is 
grayed out if there are no child documents in a "master". Is that on 
purpose? Why not enable it anyway? So one normally presses one and the 
same button and only for the extraordinary circumstance of viewing a 
child document has to press another button.

For example, if I open a long document like the Users Guide and make a
text selection bigger or smaller 2.2 stutters a lot (up to not reacting)
while 2.1.4 works fine. I am not sure this is just the CPU load because
there is "only" a 10 percent difference (50 vs. 40 %).


Sorry, my mistake. I had the complete source preview open somewhere. I 
guess that explains the slowness...

Re: [LyX/master] Reset anchor before selecting with S-button1

[Jean-Marc Lasgouttes]

This causes a regression in master and stable: when selecting with
S-button1 a second time, the previous selection is unselected. This is
inconsistent with other software and I am not sure that this was intended.


You're right of course. Fixed at 68d825fed.

Richard, this is candidate for branch, unless you are in a hurry prefer 
that I revert the faulty commit instead.

What Qt version is in use? I guess it is Qt5.x.

Is it only when the document is long?

Do you have any way to run a profiler?

Correction: Strange behaviour of the colors preference setting in version 2.2.1

[Murat Yildizoglu]

Sorry,

Playing more with this problem, I have just discovered that the settings
dialog box is not closed, but it is hidden behind the main LyX Window as
soon as I click the OK button of the color selection dialog. Since it was
just disappearing at the same time as the color dialog box, I was wrongly
assuming that it was also closed.

This is strange anyway, I think. Since the setting dialog box is initially
visible behind the Colors dialog box, it should remain there when we click
the Ok button, and not get hidden behind the main window.

I use the OSX (El Capitan 10.11.06 in French) version of Lyx. I have
forgotten to give this information in my initial mail.

Sorry for my initial confusion and thank you very much for your magnificent
efforts.

I cannot reproduce this on Windows 7. What's your set up?

Strange behaviour of the colors preference setting in version 2.2.1

[Murat Yildizoglu]

Hi,

I have installed the last version of Lyx, and then wanted to change the
background color setting in the preferences. When I open
Preferences/Colours and double-click on the background item, the dialog box
for color opens and I can select a colour, but as soon as I click the OK
button of the color dialog box, the whole preferences dialog closes  before
I have the chance of clicking Apply, and my change is not recorded.

This is strange, no?
