Just to say: I cannot tell you how useful this is, for updating the
index, correcting footnotes and whole lot of other tasks. Kudos to the
developers for creating such a useful feature.
Other features on one's dream-list:
* A kind of automated indexing: which lists all the occurances of one
word, and asks the editor whether s/he wants to include each entry.
That seems like a good idea. Not the fully-automated indexing that
usually overdoes it, but something similiar to searc & replace that
asks.
Please file a enhancement request (wishlist bug) on bugzilla.lyx.org
* Better help files.
Feel free to write some. :-)
* More and better latex chapter-page templates, which offer neat layouts...
You mean the title pages for chapters? Could be useful. would need
someone who knows good designs.
* Closer integration between layout on Lyx and typesetting (on
wordprocessor), so that when one file gets changed, the other gets
automatically updated.
What do you mean here? whenever you change something in LyX, the output
also changes (after hitting the appropriate button that updates the
dvi/pdf view.) Doing this fully automatic would waste a lot of
processing power as most people don't watch the preview continously.
There is normally no need. Or did you mean something else?
