I normally use pekwm as my window manager. However, when I set up the new user, it went to the system default: Xfce. I then went back to my normal user, and switched back to Xfce, and it worked.

LyX Qt under Gnome environment
I compiled LyX 1.5.3 for my Linux distro Ubuntu 7.10. I'm a long time user of LyX. But since QT4 version of LyX, it is impossible for me to select anything using my mouse in LyX. Even selecting with the cursor, holding shift, etc, has erratic behavior. The mouse select something, shade in blue, then diseapers without selecting anything. I checked in KDE 3.5.x and there is no problem. So this behavior is Gnome specific. Someone else has this problem? Raymond p.s. If necessary, I can upload my deb package of LyX 1.5.3 for the ftp site. -- Édité et transmis avec des logiciels libres sous Linux !

OK - I sorted it out. It was of course simply that I'd tried to put ERT into a non-standard environment - paragraph - having forgotten that 'standard' is what I should normally use, and paragraph is a level in the section hierarchy.

Unable to set table column width
Hi, I'm using Lyx 1.52 on Vista. Every time I try to set a column width for a table, the value keeps disappearing and I'm unable to fix the desired width. Also, it will not let me change the default units to something else. The drop down list shows other unit but when I select one it stays on 'in'. Can anyone tell me what is going on?

Re: [OT] Best KDE-centric Distribution?
At the moment, I'm using Linux Mint, although there are a few nagging problems but no apparent show-stoppers on my HP laptop. However, I'm definitely looking forward to KDE4, now that it's out. From what I've seen, it should permit some outstanding integration with much reduced confusion from multiple libraries and such--as well as make easy use of additional KDE/QT4 resources in many kinds of programs. I think about the time that KDE4.1 is out--probably in six months or so as I understand it--there'll be many additional improvements from the basic 4.0 level. One outstanding advantage is smaller resource use, too, so it won't be such a resource hog as the 3.5.x series has been. I do think KDE is much better programmatically than Gnome, though, even before the switch to the 4.0 level. However, I'm going to continue trying various other distros--and this thread has gotten me quite intrigued with a revisit to Slackware after many years away. Thanks!

Insert footnote is not defined there, but you can define it yourself by creating a file with the following: \bind_file mac.bind \bind "S-C-F" "footnote-insert" While it is certainly an option to add lots of shortcuts to the bind-file, it is also kind of dissatisfying that on Windows and Linux we implicitly have *all* menu commands available as shortcuts (by the Alt+underlined letter, underlined letter, ... keyboard navigation through menus), whereas on Mac the user has to assign about a hundred shortcuts manually to achieve the same usability. Moreover, the multi-key shortcuts are not visible in the menu. (The latter is not an as big problem, as LyX has this great feature to print the shortcut of the last executed command in the status bar.) You can take a look at aqua.bind (in LyX.app/Contents/Resources/ bind). That will give access to the menus via the keyboard. Or you can use turn on Keyboard Navigation in System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts. I guess it is not LyX to blame here (and certainly not it's developers :-) ), but the Mac menu system in general or maybe Qt for Mac. Nevertheless, I think it would be a good idea to offer Mac users the same level of comfort by adding *lots* of shortcuts to the standard mac.bind file and, maybe, looking for some other way to indicate multi-key shortcuts in the LyX menus. Yes: it's a Qt/Mac issue. Is anyone else interested in having more standard shortcuts? Bennett Hi, I think the way things are is OK in that one can customize the keybindings freely, and also leverage some of the existing bind files. What I do is to select a modified version of xemacs.bind as the default, but at the end of that file I load some other bind files as well, to get math and menu bindings. The menus in LyX can be accessed by keyboard, using shortcuts that are defined in menus.bind (although I recall having to modify some things there too, because the Lfunc names were outdated in LyX 1.5.3)... one thing that's bad about accessing the menus with the keyboard is that the drop-down lists open in a "floating" position, torn off from the menu bar. Fortunately, on the Mac you can also access the menu bar by the system-wide shortcut "Control-F2" (which you can in turn customize in the System Preferences). Jens

Dear Oisin, Thank you, it surely helps!

I did find some .rpm's but for LyX 1.4.. and Fedora 6, so I assumed that it is not on yet. What can I say... rookie performance. When it comes to updating to LyX 1.6, I will use the package manager.

For other who have the same problem: a simple % at the end of the

[ERT] \begin{centering}%[/ERT]
what ever in normal LyX

Is this a bug or a feature? What exactly does the % at the end of the
first ERT change?
Well, it comments out the line break that follows.
You can split stuff over as many ERTs as you like, but:
1. In this case, whatever goes inside must not cause brace imbalance,
some lyx constructs may do that - especially if you change paragraph
type
or nesting depth.
A sufficiently new LyX have view->source where you can check such things.
2. Pressing enter acutally do something, so you will sometimes have to
write this as:
[ERT] \begin{centering}[/ERT]whatever [ERT] \end{centering}[/ERT]
Again, use view->source or export->tex to see what happens.

Slackware is a fully compiled distro, just install it, choose kde, and go to work (took me 20min to install it). I also wanted to point out that some will complain that Slackware does not track dependencies. The great thing about this is that in general there aren't additional dependencies needed in Slackware like in other distros. As an example, you said you regularly compile Qt4 yourself to install LyX 1.6.svn, I just installed Aiksaurus, Qt4-4.3.3, and LyX 1.5.3 without needing any "additional" dependencies. Most of the libraries are already built into Slackware. Good luck with the search. /Bob

If there are other respects in which this is so, other than the failure to find xdvi, then do let us know. DVI is a special case, though. The only two DVI viewers listed in the configure script are xdvi and kdvi. Evince, for example, won't handle it. Richard

The pro of Debian unstable is : - extensive set of packages - good reliable command line package management and a lot of scripts to create your own packages - once you install it, you just upgrade. No need to spend a week-end every 6 months , reinstalling a new distribution - Good KDE packages The cons : - The Debian community is sometimes obnoxious - Website, wiki, information, help is beyond Ubuntu, Mandriva, etc. quality.

Jumps in broad table
Hi,
I'm using 1.5.3 as of Dec 17, 2007 with documents of the kind attached.
It contains a table broader than the screen.
Navigating / Editing this table is sometimes surprising, The cursor
jumps, selecting something is realized in jumps to the wrong side and
then returning and evnetually producing the correct selection.
To make it clear: Everything I need so far works well, it's only the
editing behaviour which is surprising.
BTW What do I have to do to activate the use of the booktabs package for
my table?
Thanks for your effort put into LyX ;-)
Keep on with your work on this great program
Cheers

ERT with cupbook.cls
Hi Lyx people
I am a new user and am struggling to implement features of the Cambridge
university press latex class cupbook.cls that I need to use. This includes
alternative \authorindex and \subjectindex commands, and also \endnote. I've
made a layout that invokes the cls OK, but having messed around with it for
ages and read the manual about using layouts and I'm not sure I can use layouts
for simple commands, so have now attempted to apply the endnote command in a
simple file with latex and with ERT in lyx.
Here is my Latex file that works fine:
\documentclass{cupbook}
\begin{document}
\title{Test CUPBOOK}
\section{Introduction}
Here is the text of your introduction \endnote{Fist para.}.
\section{Conclusion}
Write your conclusion here.
\theendnotes
\end{document}
---
I then made a similar file in Lyx. Here is the latex preview.

\usepackage[latin9]{inputenc}

\usepackage{babel}

\begin{document}
\title{Here is the title.}
\maketitle
\chapter{The first chapter.}
\paragraph{First things first.}
\paragraph{Here is a section on stuff. Stuff is OK to use for things like this.
Yak Yak \endnote{Stuff}.}
\theendnotes
\end{document}
--
But this will not compile to a dvi OK in LyX. The error log claims there is a
'}' missing, but I can't spot anything wrong (and even if I could I don't know
how I'd fix it!):
\theendnotes
I've run across a `}' that doesn't seem to match anything.
For example, `\def\a#1{...}' and `\a}' would produce
this error. If you simply proceed now, the `\par' that
I've just inserted will cause me to report a runaway
argument that might be the root of the problem. But if
your `}' was spurious, just type `2' and it will go away.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Ian
