This is not the solution. First, I am on a Solaris system with no
root privileges. Second, the use of the KDE (which I am running)
doesn't help.

I assume that this is a problem of xforms. Their fonts seem to be
hardcoded. So my questions are:
Am I missing something? Can the menu fonts be rescaled (especially in
something which I would call a text widget)? Do the dependent widgets
resize correspondingly?

BTW. On a 17" monitor with 1152x900 resolution, everything looks
perfect.

Thanks,
Michael

Generally speaking you can improve the look of all the fonts in X. This
How-To is very helpful especially for large displays.

list of figures

[yan wong]

How can I specify a shorter description to appear in the table of figures
list, if the caption in the caption environment is too long to be useful?
I think this can be done easily in latex, but can't see any documentation
as to how it can be done in lyx.

Re: FTP for LyX 1.0.2 rpm for RH5!

[lyx]

Ben,

Perhaps you can append "rh5.2" to the  release of the rpm I made, and upload
the binary to ftp.lyx.org.

What I mean is, change the release line in the spec file to 

Release:   1rh5.2

and then build the rpm.

references in multi-part documents

[Panagiotis Melas]

Many times in multi-part documents you have to use references across
different parts of the document. The current cross-reference support 
does not support this feature, the insert-reference window has a Name
field which in my case is not active. 

Is there anyway to insert cross-section references with lyx? (at the
moment I have to use a dummy label, insert the reference and delete the
label

Extra styles - How to include them

[Kayvan Aghaiepour Sylvan]

Try setting your TEXINPUTS to point to the directory where the
addition style files are (in addition to the standard places) and the
do Options->Reconfigure from within LyX.

LyX and LaTeX should then be able to use those additional style files.

reLyX problem still with 1.0.3pre2

[Adam Huffman]

Just tried to import a latex file with the latest pre-release and I'm
still getting the same problem.  It starts to work but then the terminal
from which I called LyX is filled with the following message:

Got nothing when argument expected at
/usr/local/bin/../share/lyx/reLyX/Text/TeX.pm line 838,
 chunk 330.

and I have to kill the process.

This is on a Red Hat 6.0 system with teTeX 0.9.

Extra styles - How to include them

[Steffen Schmidt]

Hi,

I want to use e.g. apacite.sty - but it is not yet installed. Is it
possible to tell LyX where to find additional LaTeX-styles on a
Linux-system? (I don't have root-permissions on this system!)

Thanks
Steffen
