Hi Richard,
Thank you again for the quick response. I'm running this from a Windows 7
machine. So I opened a command prompt, and ran the LyX executable. LyX
opens, but the command completes immediately, and no output is seen.
>From a quick google, to try to get this output within LyX I tried View->View
Messages, and then setting 'Debug messages' to 'All', and I get this when I
right-click->reload on the graphic in my figure:
..\..\src\BufferView.cpp (2850): *** START DRAWING ***
..\..\src\TextMetrics.cpp (2184): main text redraw pit=4 row=0
row_selection=0 full_repaint=1 row_has_changed=0
<snip>
..\..\src\TextMetrics.cpp (2184): main text redraw pit=14 row=0
row_selection=0 full_repaint=1 row_has_changed=0
..\..\src\BufferView.cpp (2902):
*** END DRAWING ***
Which doesn't seem to show any error.
Any other suggestions of what I could try? Am I doing the right thing in
trying to get the console output in the command prompt?
Many thanks,
Steve
