Dear Bennett,


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?)

Yes, I am running LyX 1.5.2 in German.
Before I had LyX 1.4.something. The folder is still preserved.
Maybe some disturbance there?!

That shouldn't cause a problem, since 1.5.2 should use a separate user's directory (at ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.5).

My system: iBook G4, 1.33 MhZ, 1.5 GB RAM,
Mac OS X 10.4.10 with the latest MacTexLive - 2007 Distribution.
Maybe it's got something to do with me trying to manually uninstall/ delete
the other TEX distribution that was located in /usr/local,
namely geweTeX, that I installed last year with i-installer.

If convert is working on its own from the command line, it should work from within LyX. Did you test that?

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)?


I tried reconfiguring. No change though.
ImageMagick should have been installed with the MacTexLive-2007 Distribution.

Do other graphics work? -- If you insert a .jpg figure into a LyX file and typeset, does it work?

By the way, does the tutorial have any figures? Quickly glancing
through, I didn't see any; did you mean some other document?

Yes, that's the strange thing. No figures in the tutorial.
The same happens with the user's manual.

I've tried setting my language to German and running LyX, and I see that the German tutorial does have some figures. I was able to typeset it properly, however.

Concerning Document > Outline: Does anything show up in Console.app when you try viewing an outline? ... I also wonder if anyone else with a PPC Mac is having problems with this or the TOC box. (Anders?)
