Hello everyone,

I've been enjoying the use of LyX 1.3.8 during the last few weeks: simple and plain editor that perfectly suits my needs.

However, I had to switch to 1.4.1 because someone modified one of my files with it and 1.3.8 wouldn't open it anymore. I found links to Debian packages on the LyX wiki (http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/LyXOnDebian#toc2) but although the new version looks nice and seems to have cool new features it has kind of a weird behavior on my machine, examples follow:

- When clicking on a float-fig (to expand or shrink it for instance) the cursor/window is brought to another place in the file which is very annoying, even more in the case of long files... But what's more frightening is that it sometimes does it, sometimes not.

- Same when clicking on ert inserts, links or even cross references sometimes.

I even experienced a few crashes when doing it.

Has someone experienced the same so far? Is it a well known bug?

At first, I thought it was because of my 1.3.8 files messing with internal LyX stuff but when opening the help files, the same happens. I even tried compiling the program myself: same behavior.

This is sadly spoiling my, so far, great LyX experience.

Help would be greatly appreciated,

Jé
