I came across what I thought was a bug. In the attached, if I put the
cursor just inside the note and press ctrl + i for inset-toggle, I
expected the note to close.
I looked around in the code, and I found an interesting chunk in
InsetMathNest.cpp:
// 'Locks' the math inset. A 'locked' math inset behaves as a unit
// that is traversed by a single <CursorLeft>/<CursorRight>.
case LFUN_INSET_TOGGLE:
cur.recordUndo();
lock(!lock());
cur.popForward();
break;
I don't know if that is actually related to the issue I was looking at,
but I had never heard of this feature. Does anyone use it? Can someone
give me an example of a case where it is used? Is it indeed saved in the
file format? I think I might find this feature useful.
It is fun to discover new features no matter how long I've been
around LyX.
I think it is a very old feature from André's era, I thought it was
not working anymore, and it seems inded that it is broken.
Shall we salvage it, or kill it? It can also be used inside formulas
in theory.
I doubt it's worth the effort to get it working again. But maybe just
comment it out, in case anyone decides they want to work on it.
