new installer for LyX 2.1.4 available

[Uwe Stöhr]

Hello Richard,

users informed me about a serious problem:
To download LaTeX packages one need to set up a default package 
repository. I chose a HTTP server (because some companies block FTP by 
default) at

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Hagen
because this is a distance learning-only university run by the German 
government. Unfortunately they now only support FTP access and switched 
off HTTP permanently. As result new installations of LyX are incomplete 
because the MiKTeX installer only provides a basic subset of LaTeX. 
Moreover new users are confronted with a cryptic error message about the 
inexistent server.


Thus I had to release a new installer with a new default package 
repository. It is still LyX 2.1.4 I only updated the third-party programs.


Could you please replace the installer version 5 with the new version 6?:

thanks and regards

Re: LYX 2.1.4 and El Capitan: Error converting eps and PDF

[Cristoforo Demartino]

Dear Stephan,

I finally solved my problems installing imagemagick using macports! Now both on 
LyX 2.1.4 and 2.2 beta versions now correctly give a preview of eps and pdf 
files. 

I hope that I only had this problem with OS El Capitan because to solve it I 
installed approximately 5 GB of software (Xcode etc.)

Thank you for your suggestions,

Regards,

This is a problem with the convert utility you've installed.
The binary contains the references to the dynamic libraries
with hard references to absolute paths. I cannot imagine how
this is supposed to work.

The way I've had success is using MacPorts to install the
ImageMagick utilities.

What I don't understand is why the convert utility now is missing
and why it was no problem in the past...

LYX 2.1.4 and El Capitan: Error converting eps and PDF

[Cristoforo Demartino]

I installed LyX 2.1.4. on a Mac with El Capitan. When I insert a pdf or eps 
figure, LyX displays an error in converting the file; accordingly I can't see 
the figure in the software.

The output PDF is created without any problem.

I was able to start LyX using the command line and this is the error: sh: 
convert: command not found

This is the path:  

/Library/TeX/texbin:/usr/texbin:/sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/opt/local/teTeX/bin:/opt/local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin

I obtained the same error using LyX 2.2 beta version.

Can anyone help with this issue?

I know nothing about Mac, but convert is a tool part of ImageMagick
(http://www.imagemagick.org), used to convert image files. Installing
it (Mac binaries here:
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#macosx) and
adding it to your path may solve your problem.

Bug: unable to insert symbols via the Math Panels toolbar in LyX 2.1.4 on OS X 10.11

[Sean Wood]

Hi all,

Just came across this bug after installing LyX 2.1.4 on OS X 10.11, to
reproduce:

1) File > New
2) Ensure that Math Panels toolbar is visible: View > Toolbars > Math
Panels (auto)
3) Insert > Math > Inline Formula
4) In the Math Panels toolbar, click the \alpha button
5) Move the cursor over the resulting menu of symbols

Bug: The cursor becomes a "text selection", and clicking does nothing.
Expected behaviour: cursor remains as "pointer", and clicking inserts a
symbol.
Workaround: After 4), resize the document window such that the symbols
panel hovers over the desktop, 5) then work as expected.

Many thanks for a such a great piece of open source software!
Sean.

Dear Enrico,

It's quite strange, to me #9354 does not appear fixed at all! I just 
left a detailed comment in http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9354.


If I missed something please tell me what so that I can be more helpful 
in future testings.



Best regards

Please, try again with latest master. The fix for stable will have to wait
