Forward search with Sumatra stopped working
Forward search with Sumatra stopped working. On Forward Search Sumatra complains about "Error loading: ". Does someone have similar problems? Daniel

There are several cases of symbol-characters in LyX: 1. ERT (LyX shows the symbol name in red) in a LaTeX box in text 2. ERT (LyX shows the symbol name in red) in mathed 3. Unicode character in text 4. Unicode character in mathed 5. math-symbol in mathed (LyX changes the input text into a symbol or supports inserting via menu). * With 1) and 2), you are on your own - see in the symbol list which package is required and add it to the user-preamble. * Variants 3 to 5 should auto-load a package if required. If not, file a bug report (or mail to the list) which symbols fail and whether in text or math mode. You can also try to copy the "unicodesymbols" file from the LyX dir to the LyX user dir (~/.lyx/ on Unix) and add definitions for missing characters. (post your patches...). What I must conclude now is that there is no consistent rule in using symbols from Scott Pakin's 'The Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List' (Nov. 2015). And this is not at all surprising when looking at the huge amount of 14032 symbols listed there, just good to know! In addition, not all of the packages listed there work together and some nameclashes exist... Günter Thanks Günter, for your very informative comment (I wasn't really aware of all these) but then a bit too much of a challenge to me as a user. Most of my documents are of type linguistics and meanwhile I get pretty well along with #1 and #2 - being aware that there are clashes and not every symbol from the list works (in cases not even if they are from the same group). Knowing now what is fact I can live with it. My engineering documents are loaded with heaps of formulas but so far I have not been facing problems here inserting symbols. Then I tried around with #5 and find the variety of available symbols simply to be inserted via menu is enormous. I will attend to that "unicodesymbols" file you mentioned - sounds interesting! But adding definitions for missing characters is something I've never done before :-\ Cheers, Michael

I usually use the enumerate environment (with the enumitem module) for

enumerate is not very convenient for algorighms because one needs to
change the spacing, hide the labels, etc...
Basically, I just need a way to indent lines the way I like and be
able to use math.
Doesn't the listings environment allow this?
Here's an easy solution:
\begin_body
\begin_layout Standard
\begin_inset FormulaMacro
\newcommand{\tab}{\-\ \-\ \-\ }
{}
\end_inset
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
pokpokpokp

\begin_layout Standard
\begin_inset Formula $\tab$

ijijijij

I can't use math in listings and I don't like the monospaced font.
