Hi all, first of all, a HUGE thank you to the LyX team for putting out the long-awaited QT-based LyX. This thing is just absolutely beautiful!
I hope I never, ever again have to see an Xforms-based program in my life. We are all grateful to xforms because it gave us lyx for all these years before the qt frontend existed. But now, that visual and functional horror can die the merciful death it deserves. A couple of questions concerning the new front end. I'm using the RedHat 8 rpms from the lyx ftp site (thanks also for providing those). All seems to work great, I'd just like to know: - is it possible to get lyx to remember its window size? I had it set via .Xdefaults but the new front end seems to ignore this. No biggie, but it's a bit annoying to have it open a tiny window every time. - How can I turn on the instant-preview feature? I can't seem to find a toggle for it in any dialog. - Is tab-completion gone from the mini-buffer? I learned a lot about lyx functions by simply typing a letter or two and hitting tab to see what came out. Is there an alternate way to get this behavior? Anyway, thanks again for this version. You guys have put in a lot of hard work, and we (users) truly appreciate it. Cheers, f.
