Hi,

I have installed 1.6.0 on my iMinis at my practice (Obstetrics and
Gynaecologist) and at home, both are 10.5.5 updated to current.

Whenever I open a document (new or previously saved), LyX doesn't
remember the previous window state, it's always small(ish) and
there are three toolbars, one in each line. I can move the third
one onto the second one (to the right), but whenever I open the
or another document there are three toolbars again.

I also like to move toolbar (table) below the text to the top right
(it only appears when the table button is clicked) but it doesn't
remain there.

Whenever I open more than one documents a new window is opened
(small, as above) instead of the previous behavior, as a second
tab into the first window (which 1.5.7 does).

CMD-Return does not do anything for me, when it used to insert the
"red" newline. There was an even weirder issue within a table the
other day which I can't reproduce at the moment, I'll report if
and when I can :-)-O.

Hi,
some of these problems sound familiar. I didn't have the window size problem, but did lose the newline shortcut. To get it back, you may just need to look at the dialog "LyX Preferences > Editing > Shortcuts" and find "newline-insert" - if there is no shortcut next to that entry, just modify it. If that doesn't work, there may be a conflict with a custom bind file that should exist in the directory
~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.6/bind
(the top of the Shortcuts dialog just mentioned tells you what bind file you're currently using). The conflict would arise because the function "newline-insert" was previously named "break-line". So if you have the old command in a custom bind file, you may have to remove it.

Regarding the window size problem, there could be similar issues with a custom default.ui file in ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.6/ ui/. You could try removing any old files you may have there, and start customizing from scratch.

Hope this helps,
Jens
