Problems with equation numbering in appendix
Hi all, I find that in my document (with documentclass report), unless I disable numbering on all equations, I get the error \mathrm allowed only in math mode. Does anyone know how to fix this issue or work around it to get equation numbering working in the appendices? thanks, Manoj

Have you ever considered to just use an color inversion effect (compiz, under linux, offers something like that, and if I remember well you can invert single windows rather than the whole desktop). This would save your time to customize LyX, if color inversion is your real aim. FWIW, I am a new user (started with LyX this summer) and the changes that have been introduced with the new release (1.6) are many and important. I had a look back to 1.5.x and I don't think I would be the same happy using LyX 1.5 now. My guess is that there are new stuff in the documentation. Of course, more experienced users or devs are most appropriate to answer this. Kind regards, Nikos

preserving tool bar preferences in LyX 1.6

Have you ever considered to just use an "color inversion" effect (compiz, under linux, offers something like that, and if I remember well you can invert single windows rather than the whole desktop). This would save your time to customize LyX, if color inversion is your real aim. FWIW, I am a new user (started with LyX this summer) and the changes that have been introduced with the new release (1.6) are many and important. I had a look back to 1.5.x and I don't think I would be the same happy using LyX 1.5 now. My guess is that there are new stuff in the documentation. Of course, more experienced users or devs are most appropriate to answer this. Kind regards, Nikos
