I am using the new 1.4.2 version on Windows. I am not sure how they compiled it, but I assume they used cygwin. I am running lyx.exe from a cygwin shell (which has tgif in the path). Same error occurs if I use the desktop shortcut, but I don't get the error message in the terminal: convert.exe: unable to open image `tgif:c:/gatzke/test.obj': Invalid argument. convert.exe: missing an image filename `ppm:c:/Documents and Settings/gatzke/Local Settings/Temp/lyx_tmpdir2752a01764/test2752a01764.ppm'. c:/Program Files/LyX142/Resources/scripts/convertDefault.sh ERROR Execution of "convert" failed. So it looks like it is calling the convertDefaul.sh in the new Lyx 1.4.2 /Resources/scripts directory. That convert script appears to just call convert.exe, not tgif. tgif itself generates ppm etc called from my command line just fine. tgif is never getting called.
