Dear All,
I have some sincere problems.
1) The "outline" function (in German "Gliederung")
(found in >Documents>[underneath LaTeX Protocol]
doesn't work. When I activate it I get no options,
no outline showing up or anything.
I cannot confirm: showing outline works fine for me (and I rely on it
all the time). Can you give us more details on your system: PPC vs
Intel Mac, what version of the OS, etc. (Are you running LyX in German?)
2) Converter Problems: When trying to look at
e.g. the Tutorial File in PDF (pdflatex) or DVI or PS
I always get a message telling me that the conversion
from xmp to png (or eps) is not working
and that I would need to define a converter.
I guess I need some help on that.
In the >Settings I tried to define several converters:
like XPM>PNG, XPM>EPS...
but I don't know which converter to use (I tried it with: convert $
$i $$o).
It just wouldn't work.
You shouldn't need to define any additional converters here; it
should just work so long as you have the relevant software installed,
such as ImageMagick (which I assume you do). Have you tried
reconfiguring LyX (LyX > Reconfigure)?
By the way, does the tutorial have any figures? Quickly glancing
through, I didn't see any; did you mean some other document?
