Hi,
I have an alignment problem:

I chose r for the alignment.
If I have a - in front of one number, the whole column with all numbers

distance between the brackets is to wide.
How can I have the numbers in the center of the two brackets an the - sign
on the left of one number?
Add a protected space (CTRL-SPACE) or a double protected space
(CTRL-SPACE SPACE) _between_ your array and the closing bracket. If you
want more precise control, instead of protected space use \hspace{2.1mm}.
(Replace 2.1mm with a length measure that produces the desired output.)
Personally I recommend [CTRL-SPACE SPACE], double protected space, which
is probably more portable (like when you decide to typeset using 12pt
fonts instead of 10pt).

placement of figures/floats
Hello, how do I place figures which are included in floats exactly where they should be in a text? So far, I used to put !h in the extras box of Layout | Document. But figures keep appearing somewhere out of context like one or two paragraphs later. With Lyx Version 1.5-fix I got it made after some time but since I have upgraded it doesn't work and when I open my old documents the seem to have all problems with floats. Thanks.

AFPL Ghostscript v.8.0 problem
Dear list, I found that the ghostscript v.8.0 cannot work with yap viewer, for those of you using MikTex in windows. Please downgrade your ghostscipt to v.7.04 if you found the same problem. I am using LyX v.1.2.3 for windows. Cheers, Shokie
Re: AFPL Ghostscript v.8.0 problem
Try it with GS_OPTION=-dNOSAFER (or it might be GS_OPTIONS, I can never remember which...)

Try right-clicking on the red text that reads "float:figure" (or
something to that effect). The "Document Defaults" will probably be
selected, un-select this and then choose the one that you want ("Here
Definitely").
Hope this helps.
