I'm using LyX (various version, now 2.2.2) with MiKTeX (2.9)
on Windows
(10) since April 2015 with no problems.
Today the site is down but you should only have to wait few hours.
Bye!

Yesterday, like others, I couldn't update MiKTeX. This morning
(8.20 a.m. New Zealand time) everything proceeded smoothly.

I used to use MikTex under Windows, but several years ago, when I 
switched to Linux, which uses TexLive, I switched to TexLive under 
Windows too, and it has worked very well.  I liked the MikTex package 
manager better than TLMGR, but it was a small price to pay for 
uniformity, stability and continued support.

Insert>Special Character> Symbols does not work in Lyx 2.2.2

[Michael Berger]

Dear all,

Mageia5, Lyx 2.2.2, Texlive2016, using classicthesis-LyX-v4.2_biblatex_biber

In body text I try using using Insert > Special Character > Symbols > 
any category (e.g. Mathematical Operator)


This worked in Lyx 2.1 but in Lyx 2.2.2 either an error is thrown out or 
nothing happens when compiling to PDF.


Classicthesis uses Language Encoding Unicode (utf8).

Is this a known issue?

Are there alternatives to get the symbols right in my text?

Thanks and cheers,

Michael

[Florian Dollinger]

times but i still get tons of emails :D

OK-- using the right arrow key does work.  The cursor is invisible, 
but if I type, the text appears where it should.  If the title is 
short,  the ENTER key works as well, but if it is long, ENTER does not 
seem to affect the cursor.

The mouse does not work (for me at least) for the long titles.

I am not sure if this is a bug (it sure does not look like a feature 
;-), but I discovered that I cannot enter any text or do anything
else 
in a frame that has a title that exceeds the width of the page,
causing 
the title to wrap around (which is fine), and totally prevent the 
creation of a new frame. None of the various ways of starting a new 
frame, inserting graphics or entering text seem to work after such a 
deadly long title (see attached MWE).

  
  
Did you move the cursor out of the frame title inset?
