Strange problem in file-open dialog (1.5RC2, WinXP)
Hi all, I'm having a very strange problem with the file-open dialog in version 1.5RC2. The file list panel doesn't show all subfolders in the current folder. For example, I have 13 subfolders in My Documents folder, but the file-open dialog shows only 6. This happens with other folders as well, but not all of them. In version 1.4.4 there is no such problem. Is anybody else having this problem? Thanks. Persio _ Make every IM count. Download Messenger and join the im Initiative now.

Re: Puitting other things on title page
Hi, Yes, yes, YES! I've said it 1000 times -- the front matter is a one-off section that does not need consistency enforced by styles. The front matter is more like a poster than like a book, and hence I always create the whole thing with fine-tuned ERT. if you are able to read and write some (elementary ;-) LaTeX you could create an individual style fiel for your title page *** redefining @maketitle *** put it somewhere where (te)TeX can find it and include it in your LyX preamble. So you can avoid cluttering your LyX document with ERTs.

Really s-l-o-w configuration of rc2 on XP
Hi, I just installed rc2 using LyXWin150svnSmall-3-17.exe (after uninstalling rc1). Usually I have MikTeX set to nag me about uninstalled packages, but this time I set it to simply skip them automatically. I mention this for completeness, although I don't think it's the source of the problem. When the installer got around to running the configuration script, it took easily ten times the normal time (normal time being about a minute or so, this go around being upwards of 10 minutes). During that time, fc-cache.exe (which I gather is a font caching utility that's part of XFree) ran intermittently and hammered my CPU, although I'm not sure it accounts for all the extra time spent. Don't know if anyone else experienced this, or if anything can be done about it, but I figured I'd pass it along. /Paul

Re: Puitting other things on title page
Hi, Yes, yes, YES! I've said it 1000 times -- the front matter is a one-off section that does not need consistency enforced by styles. The front matter is more like a poster than like a book, and hence I always create the whole thing with fine-tuned ERT. if you are able to read and write some (elementary ;-) LaTeX you could create an individual style fiel for your title page *** redefining @maketitle *** put it somewhere where (te)TeX can find it and include it in your LyX preamble. So you can avoid cluttering your LyX document with ERTs.

Really s-l-o-w configuration of rc2 on XP
Hi, I just installed rc2 using LyXWin150svnSmall-3-17.exe (after uninstalling rc1). Usually I have MikTeX set to nag me about uninstalled packages, but this time I set it to simply skip them automatically. I mention this for completeness, although I don't think it's the source of the problem. When the installer got around to running the configuration script, it took easily ten times the normal time (normal time being about a minute or so, this go around being upwards of 10 minutes). During that time, fc-cache.exe (which I gather is a font caching utility that's part of XFree) ran intermittently and hammered my CPU, although I'm not sure it accounts for all the extra time spent. Don't know if anyone else experienced this, or if anything can be done about it, but I figured I'd pass it along. /Paul
