Labelling problem and Lyx paste request

[Peter D Drummond]

Hi - I noticed an unexpected (and undocumented) feature in Lyx1.1.5; this is a version running on a DEC-alpha under Tru64 Unix, so it may be specific to Tru64. I haven't tested on all possible Lyx installation types. Labels won't attach to certain equations; if you then try to number them using math-number instead, you just get a random character inserted in the equation, which is not useful; nor can you un-number the equation, if numbered. Problem appears associated with the mini-buffer not clearing itself as it should, when you click it. However, I found that SOME equations can be labelled, even when I can't use the minibuffer, so the problem is a little weird from my perspective! Also - its great you can paste FROM lyx - please can we have a paste INTO lyx as well? Thanks for the great job developing Lyx so far! Peter Drummond.
