double dots for french
Hi, In lyx1.2 (and before), when using either french or french-Gutenberg, Lyx automatically adds a blank space before double dots :. 1. IMHO, it is not necessary since most french users are used to typing this blank space before the double dot, especially when no space appear in the lyx window. By comparison, automatic spaces before and after the french quotes » and « are OK since they appear in the window (no temptation of doing it twice). A solution (IMHO) would be to show this space on the window (just like was done for quotes). I understand it might be very complicated to program this feature... 2. This automatic spacing can make funny things. For instance: xml :my-tagblabla/xml :my-tag http ://www.myself.org/ - Is there a way to tell lyx, temporaryly, NOT to put empty spaces. The solution I used is to enter math-mode before typing :, but it doesn't look as a clean solution to me. 3. The process is also applied in the bibliography and, for journals, it is really annoying for the pages numbering. It makes: M. Myname. My nice title. The Journal's Name, volume :pages-numbers, year. e.g.N. Sabouret. LyX is cool. Computer Science, 24: 3-5, 2002 What can I do ?

I think a bit annoying to force an undocumented GS option, anyone knowing something about this ? On the other side, further checks show that the error may highly depend unpon the local screen fonts installed (same file, same acroread binary, different behaviour on different computers), so the option seems compulsory when wide diffusion is planned, even with a correct behaviour on your screen.

double dots for french
Hi, In lyx1.2 (and before), when using either french or french-Gutenberg, Lyx automatically adds a blank space before double dots :. 1. IMHO, it is not necessary since most french users are used to typing this blank space before the double dot, especially when no space appear in the lyx window. By comparison, automatic spaces before and after the french quotes » and « are OK since they appear in the window (no temptation of doing it twice). A solution (IMHO) would be to show this space on the window (just like was done for quotes). I understand it might be very complicated to program this feature... 2. This automatic spacing can make funny things. For instance: xml :my-tagblabla/xml :my-tag http ://www.myself.org/ - Is there a way to tell lyx, temporaryly, NOT to put empty spaces. The solution I used is to enter math-mode before typing :, but it doesn't look as a clean solution to me. 3. The process is also applied in the bibliography and, for journals, it is really annoying for the pages numbering. It makes: M. Myname. My nice title.

I think a bit annoying to force an undocumented GS option, anyone knowing something about this ? On the other side, further checks show that the error may highly depend unpon the local screen fonts installed (same file, same acroread binary, different behaviour on different computers), so the option seems compulsory when wide diffusion is planned, even with a correct behaviour on your screen.

pdflatex
I have a document with eps images in it and when I want to create the pdf by using the pdflatex option, it seems like everything works fine, however in the generated pdf I don't see the images. I can locate the jpg version fo those images under the temp folder though. If I move those files to where my images are, then the conversion is done nicely. Any idea how to fix this?

TeX output looks good, so does PostScript output so it miust be some kind of display problem. Actually help files show the same behaviour (with that Mobius image). I tried to insert a tif pixcture, but the result was the same. How can I display properly images in LyX?

It is indeed unfortunate. Feel free to add a bug in bugzilla.lyx.org so that it does not get forgotten. Note that what you describe is 'close all flaots'.

double dots for french
Hi, In lyx1.2 (and before), when using either french or french-Gutenberg, Lyx automatically adds a blank space before double dots ":". 1. IMHO, it is not necessary since most french users are used to typing this blank space before the double dot, especially when no space appear in the lyx window. By comparison, automatic spaces before and after the french quotes » and « are OK since they appear in the window (no temptation of doing it twice). A solution (IMHO) would be to show this space on the window (just like was done for quotes). I understand it might be very complicated to program this feature... 2. This automatic spacing can make funny things. For instance: blabla http ://www.myself.org/ -> Is there a way to tell lyx, temporaryly, NOT to put empty spaces. The solution I used is to enter math-mode before typing :, but it doesn't look as a clean solution to me. 3. The process is also applied in the bibliography and, for journals, it is really annoying for the pages numbering. It makes: M. Myname. My nice title. The Journal's Name, volume :pages-numbers, year. e.g.N. Sabouret. LyX is cool. Computer Science, 24: 3-5, 2002 What can I do ?

LyXTips
Hi LyXers, maybe this question is off-topic, but I hope you can help me anyway: I have downloaded the LyXTips.tgz. The possibility to browse offline through the tips is great! But I have a problem: neither Opera 6.0 nor Konqueror 3.0.0 can interpret the php-files. They both have the following error: [Opera:] XML-Interpretation fehlgeschlagen syntax error (2:62) [Konqueror:] XML-Lesefehler: unexpected character in Zeile [x], Spalte [y] Mozilla 1.0 can interpret the php3-files, but it does not show the php-files. It works when I rename the php-files into php3, but then I have to change the links in nearly every document, which would be a little bit too much work... ;-( Do I have to change some of my browser-settings or is there any other clue?

It runs with pdflatex ... and with tex2pdf In the first case all temporary files are in LyX's tempdir and in the second case I have the tex2pdf- tempdir and a logfile in the maindir of the doc.

figure in a float
Befroe lyx 1.2 the figure was automatically centered inside the float... Now
it doesn't. Did you guys put a switch somewhere or something? or I have to
\begin{center}
\end{center}
all the time?
Thanks \{endmail} ;)
Inserting images into LyX
Hi, When I try to insert a EPS image (created with GIMP) I only get a black frame with message "Error converting to loadable format" and a file name. TeX output looks good, so does PostScript output so it miust be some kind of display problem. Actually help files show the same behaviour (with that Mobius image). I tried to insert a tif pixcture, but the result was the same. How can I display properly images in LyX? The final output is OK, so the problem is not critical, but with lots of images it's difficult to handle. LyX-1.2.0, self compiled, Linux RedHat-6.2 (with lots of updates) Regards, Jacek Stolarczyk

put the cursor left or right from the image and then
