Re: Is it possible to insert bibliography after the appendices?
I am not sure if Charles' solution will always work. I myself had a similiar problem. I had several child documents, each of them describing a chapter of a book. One of the child documents had an appendix, and the result was that all the child documents (i.e. chapters) following the one with the appendix appeared as part of the appendix itself. In my case I was using the memoir class. To solve the problem I used \begin{subappendices} and \end{subappendices}, which is part of the appendix package that is natively supported by the memoir class. In your case I guess you should use \begin{appendices} and \end{appendices}. That is, forget about Lyx's support of appendices and insert those commands inside an ERT insert at the beginning and end of your appendix. You may also need to load the appendix package in the document preamble with \usepackage{appendix}. Take a look here for more info: http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=appendix Hope this helps Cheers, Nicolás charles reid wrote: Hi Manoj - This has a pretty easy solution. You can put the appendix into a child document[s] (i.e. its own Lyx file or files). Then, in your thesis, you can do Insert File Child Document There will be a small gray box in your Lyx document that now represents the Appendix file. Next, you can go to a line after that gray box and do Insert List / TOC BibTeX Bibliography (or whatever you want to put after the Appendix) and make sure its gray box goes after the Appendix's gray box. I just tested this out to make sure it works OK using LyX 1.5.6. (Note that if you are using macros in your Appendix, you'll have to also include those in the document before you run the latex part. You could even put those macros in their own file and include them as a child document.)

Problem with full-screen mode: can you reproduce?
Hi! This is related to LyX 1.6 on Windows. When I enter into full-screen mode (pressing F11) when no document is opened (i.e. just the welcome screen with the LyX logo is visible), I cannot go back. Nothing works. Neither F11 nor Ctrl-Q nor any other thing. LyX hangs and I have to kill it. Can someone reproduce this problem? Cheers, Nicolás
[ANNOUNCE] LyX 1.5.7 is released
Public release of LyX version 1.5.7 We are pleased to announce the release of LyX 1.5.7. This is the sixth maintenance release in the 1.5.x cycle and it is expected to be the final release in this series, since a new series of stable releases has just been introduced by our new major release, LyX 1.6.0. Besides the obligatory bug fixes, the main feature of this release is the ability to read files created by LyX 1.6.0 (this feature requires python 2.3.4 or newer). All users who intend to stick with the 1.5.x series for the time being are encouraged to upgrade to this version. A detailed list of changes is appended below, remaining known problems are listed in the file RELEASE-NOTES. In case you are wondering what LyX is, here is what http://www.lyx.org/ has to say on the subject: LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based on the structure of your documents, not their appearance. It is released under a Free Software / Open Source license. LyX is for people that write and want their writing to look great, right out of the box. No more endless tinkering with formatting details, 'finger painting' font attributes or futzing around with page boundaries. You just write. In the background, Prof. Knuth's legendary TeX typesetting engine makes you look good. On screen, LyX looks like any word processor; its printed output -- or richly cross-referenced PDF, just as readily produced -- looks like nothing else. Gone are the days of industrially bland .docs, all looking similarly not-quite-right, yet coming out unpredictably different on different printer drivers. Gone are the crashes 'eating' your dissertation the evening before going to press. LyX is stable and fully featured. It is a multi-platform, fully internationalized application running natively on Unix/Linux, the Macintosh and modern Windows platforms. You can download LyX 1.5.7 here (the .bz2 are compressed with bzip2, which yields smaller files): ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/lyx/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz ftp://ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/lyx/lyx-1.5.7.tar.bz2 and it should propagate shortly to the following mirrors (which will also host the .bz2 versions): ftp://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz http://lyx.cybermirror.org/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/publishing/tex/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/X11/LyX/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz http://sunsite.icm.edu.pl/pub/unix/editors/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz http://lyx.mirror.fr/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz Prebuilt binaries (rpms for Linux distributions, Mac OS X and Windows installers) should soon be available at ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.5.7/ If you already have the sources of the previous release, you may want to apply one of the following patches instead ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/patch-1.5.7.gz ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/patch-1.5.7.bz2 If you find what you think is a bug in LyX 1.5.7, you may either e-mail the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel at lists.lyx.org), or open a bug report at http://bugzilla.lyx.org If you're having trouble using the new version of LyX, or have a question, first check out http://www.lyx.org/help/. If you can't find the answer there, e-mail the LyX users' list (lyx-users at lists.lyx.org). Enjoy! The LyX team. What's new in version 1.5.7? ** Updates: *** * IMPORTING LyX 1.6.x DOCUMENTS - The lyx2lyx framework has been updated to be the same as LyX 1.6.0. This means that now all documents from version 1.6.x can be imported directly. * DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION - Updated localization of the user interface for Catalan, Czech, French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Turkish, and Ukrainian. - New Catalan translations of the Intro manual and the example file ItemizeBullets.lyx. - New Ukrainian translation of the Intro manual. - The Minipage.lyx and listings.lyx example files have been removed. Their content is covered by the ExtendedObjects manual. * DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT - New layout file for ACM SIGPLAN conference papers. - New layout file for journal articles of the Inderscience publishing group. - New layout file and template for journal articles of the Elsevier publishing group. The template file for the obsolete Elsevier layout has been removed. - New layout file for the svjour3 class (journal articles of the Springer publishing group) (bug 5154). - Completely rewritten layout file for the siamltex (SIAM) class. - Add support for quote, quotation and verse in the beamer class. - Support some more Greek characters without Greek language set. - The
Re: Problems with Instant Preview in 1.6.0
A S wrote: Hi, Instant Preview doesn't work well for me with LyX 1.6.0. It only displays certain parts of the maths formulas. In contrast, LyX 1.5.3 never had a problem with this (although some earlier versions did, as well). Can this be fixed somehow? Howcome it works with 1.5.3 but not 1.6.0 running on the same system? Regards, Alex I just loaded a paper with a nontrivial number of nontrivial formulas into 1.6.0 (with IP on), and they all displayed correctly. What OS are you running? Does the problem occur if you turn IP on and then load the document, or only if you load the document (with IP off) and then turn IP on? (I've noticed that if I turn IP on with a document open and then cursor into and out of a math inset to trigger IP, the inset I moved through sometimes turns invisible, as if IP is returning a null document as a rendition -- but other insets look ok, and if I unload/reload the document, it's fine.) Lastly, are you saying that formulas are truncated, or just that certain characters go missing in the middle of a formula? The latter might indicate a problem with your display fonts. /Paul

You can manually edit the user.bind file as described in the bug report, but manual changes will be wiped out as soon as you use the GUI to modify things again. Another workaround is to put the \unbind and \bind commands in a user specific bind file. Regards, Dominik.-

It is your literate-article.layout which cannot be found, is corrupted, or is incompatible with the new LyX 1.6 version. Have you tried with LyX 1.5.7? It seems like Lyx cannot find Sweave.sty, event though Latex can find it. I'm at my wits end, so any advice on how to troubleshoot this would be very much appreciated. While I'm quite familiar with R, Lyx is very new to me. Regards Mike Best, Philippe Grosjean YES, I installed LyX 1.5.7, copied the layouts across and it works fine. Thanks so much.

Specific converter and child documents
Hi, I wanted to create quite a big document. I use a lot inserting child documents. I've created a script called latex_pl which inserts ~ between every letter a, e, i, o and so on. It's required by polish typography. (for example - you shouldn't leave letter a alone on the end of a line; nevermind) So I've added that script into converters section somewhere in lyx options. It works with no problem when I click pdflatex preview with a single document. But when I click same button on a document with inserts of child documents - it looks like they're compiling using normal pdflatex not my modified one. Why? And how can I fix it? By the way, thanks for 1.6! Regards, Tomek

Do you have the same installation of Python on both boxes (just the subset that Uwe bundles, or a full install on both)?

avoiding indentation within footnotes and adding vertical space under headings
Dear All, I am currently finalising my PhD dissertation in Law. I'm using Lyx 1.6 on windows xp (no package yet for lyx 1.6 on my mandriva :-)) and would need some help. The class document I use is book (koma-script). The first think I would like to do is to to avoid indentation within the footnotes. I guess this is possible to do it with footmisc but I didn't manage to put the right commands into my preamble until now. The second thing I would need to do is to add extra vertical space under the subparagraph and paragraph headings to make the space between these headings and the begining of the text of the next paragraph more or less the same than between the section heading and the begining of the next paragraph. I'm sure this is not complicated to do but I am a bit running out of time and I must print the final document in a few days so I would appreciate if someone could help me to sort this out. Nicolas

Re: Is it possible to insert bibliography after the appendices?
I am not sure if Charles' solution will always work. I myself had a similiar problem. I had several child documents, each of them describing a chapter of a book. One of the child documents had an appendix, and the result was that all the child documents (i.e. chapters) following the one with the appendix appeared as part of the appendix itself. In my case I was using the memoir class. To solve the problem I used \begin{subappendices} and \end{subappendices}, which is part of the appendix package that is natively supported by the memoir class. In your case I guess you should use \begin{appendices} and \end{appendices}. That is, forget about Lyx's support of appendices and insert those commands inside an ERT insert at the beginning and end of your appendix. You may also need to load the appendix package in the document preamble with \usepackage{appendix}. Take a look here for more info: http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=appendix Hope this helps Cheers, Nicolás charles reid wrote: Hi Manoj - This has a pretty easy solution. You can put the appendix into a child document[s] (i.e. its own Lyx file or files). Then, in your thesis, you can do Insert File Child Document There will be a small gray box in your Lyx document that now represents the Appendix file. Next, you can go to a line after that gray box and do Insert List / TOC BibTeX Bibliography (or whatever you want to put after the Appendix) and make sure its gray box goes after the Appendix's gray box. I just tested this out to make sure it works OK using LyX 1.5.6. (Note that if you are using macros in your Appendix, you'll have to also include those in the document before you run the latex part. You could even put those macros in their own file and include them as a child document.)

[ANNOUNCE] LyX 1.5.7 is released
Public release of LyX version 1.5.7 We are pleased to announce the release of LyX 1.5.7. This is the sixth maintenance release in the 1.5.x cycle and it is expected to be the final release in this series, since a new series of stable releases has just been introduced by our new major release, LyX 1.6.0. Besides the obligatory bug fixes, the main feature of this release is the ability to read files created by LyX 1.6.0 (this feature requires python 2.3.4 or newer). All users who intend to stick with the 1.5.x series for the time being are encouraged to upgrade to this version. A detailed list of changes is appended below, remaining known problems are listed in the file RELEASE-NOTES. In case you are wondering what LyX is, here is what http://www.lyx.org/ has to say on the subject: LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based on the structure of your documents, not their appearance. It is released under a Free Software / Open Source license. LyX is for people that write and want their writing to look great, right out of the box. No more endless tinkering with formatting details, 'finger painting' font attributes or futzing around with page boundaries. You just write. In the background, Prof. Knuth's legendary TeX typesetting engine makes you look good. On screen, LyX looks like any word processor; its printed output -- or richly cross-referenced PDF, just as readily produced -- looks like nothing else. Gone are the days of industrially bland .docs, all looking similarly not-quite-right, yet coming out unpredictably different on different printer drivers. Gone are the crashes 'eating' your dissertation the evening before going to press. LyX is stable and fully featured. It is a multi-platform, fully internationalized application running natively on Unix/Linux, the Macintosh and modern Windows platforms. You can download LyX 1.5.7 here (the .bz2 are compressed with bzip2, which yields smaller files): ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/lyx/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz ftp://ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/lyx/lyx-1.5.7.tar.bz2 and it should propagate shortly to the following mirrors (which will also host the .bz2 versions): ftp://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz http://lyx.cybermirror.org/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/publishing/tex/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/X11/LyX/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz http://sunsite.icm.edu.pl/pub/unix/editors/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz http://lyx.mirror.fr/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz Prebuilt binaries (rpms for Linux distributions, Mac OS X and Windows installers) should soon be available at ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.5.7/ If you already have the sources of the previous release, you may want to apply one of the following patches instead ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/patch-1.5.7.gz ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/patch-1.5.7.bz2 If you find what you think is a bug in LyX 1.5.7, you may either e-mail the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel at lists.lyx.org), or open a bug report at http://bugzilla.lyx.org If you're having trouble using the new version of LyX, or have a question, first check out http://www.lyx.org/help/.

In contrast, LyX 1.5.3 never had a problem with this (although some earlier versions did, as well). Can this be fixed somehow? Howcome it works with 1.5.3 but not 1.6.0 running on the same system? Regards, Alex I just loaded a paper with a nontrivial number of nontrivial formulas into 1.6.0 (with IP on), and they all displayed correctly. What OS are you running? Does the problem occur if you turn IP on and then load the document, or only if you load the document (with IP off) and then turn IP on? (I've noticed that if I turn IP on with a document open and then cursor into and out of a math inset to trigger IP, the inset I moved through sometimes turns invisible, as if IP is returning a null document as a rendition -- but other insets look ok, and if I unload/reload the document, it's fine.)

Re: save backups every n minutes working?
Cameron Stone wrote: Hi everybody. I just had compiz (my Linux window manager) crash and subsequently I lost about an hours work in lyx. When I restarted lyx (1.5.6 - under ubuntu intrepid ibex) it asked some questions (I think about the file already being open or something), and I foolishly said no. I now have the old version of the file, and was wondering how the auto-save feature works. In the preferences I have selected the check-box for Backup documents (in Look and Feel = User Interface = Documents), and the period set to every 5 minutes. Maximum last files is 16. I found some files in $HOME/.lyx/backup, but the relevant file there hasn't been touched since yesterday. There was a myfile.lyx.emergency file in the directory, but it was empty (zero size). Can someone tell me if these backup files may still exist somewhere, and if so, where? Or have I obliterated them by saying no to those questions. The emergency file is one LyX tries to create when it crashes. Seems like it didn't get a chance before the compiz crash shut it down completely. I think it may be that you did obliterate the backup files. But it may be that you're not seeing them for some reason. Make sure you do an ls -a. rh
ACM Sigplan layout
Hi, I was testing the ACM Sigplan layout with a very basic document: Title, author and some text. I rendered the PDF and only the text was shown. While comparing the LaTeX code generated by LyX with this basic document and the one using the included template, I saw that LyX fails to add an empty line between the \authorinfo{} and the \maketitle. It seems that just one empty line between them is not enough and you need two empry lines between them.

The templates are in French - how do I switch to English version for the templates. 2. The command for insert Tex Ctrl+L when used does not work with Command disabled in the buffer. Clicking the button for insert tex works fine. Tx Vivek
Specific converter and child documents
Hi, I wanted to create quite a big document. I use a lot inserting child documents. I've created a script called latex_pl which inserts ~ between every letter a, e, i, o and so on. It's required by polish typography. (for example - you shouldn't leave letter a alone on the end of a line; nevermind) So I've added that script into converters section somewhere in lyx options. It works with no problem when I click pdflatex preview with a single document. But when I click same button on a document with inserts of child documents - it looks like they're compiling using normal pdflatex not my modified one. Why? And how can I fix it? By the way, thanks for 1.6! Regards, Tomek

Do you have the same installation of Python on both boxes (just the subset that Uwe bundles, or a full install on both)? Also, you might check try converting a file manually on the Vista box, using a DOS shell. This would look something like C:\Program Files\LyX16\python\python.exe C:\Program Files\LyX16\Resources\lyx2lyx\lyx2lyx doc.lyx where doc.lyx is the old document. If it works, the converted file will be written on screen. I'm wondering if perhaps there's a permission problem accessing Python? /Paul
Re: Square root sign
2008/11/13 ekpyrotic [EMAIL PROTECTED]: How do I get a square root sign? -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Square-root-sign-tp1495123p1495123.html Sent from the LyX - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. To do it through the toolbars can be a little tricky because there's two toolbars for math stuff. One is the Math panels toolbar and the other is the just Math toolbar. Go to View Toolbars Math . A toolbar should appear somewhere. Just click on the square root button in there and you're done.

avoiding indentation within footnotes and adding vertical space under headings
Dear All, I am currently finalising my PhD dissertation in Law. I'm using Lyx 1.6 on windows xp (no package yet for lyx 1.6 on my mandriva :-)) and would need some help. The class document I use is book (koma-script). The first think I would like to do is to to avoid indentation within the footnotes. I guess this is possible to do it with footmisc but I didn't manage to put the right commands into my preamble until now. The second thing I would need to do is to add extra vertical space under the subparagraph and paragraph headings to make the space between these headings and the begining of the text of the next paragraph more or less the same than between the section heading and the begining of the next paragraph. I'm sure this is not complicated to do but I am a bit running out of time and I must print the final document in a few days so I would appreciate if someone could help me to sort this out. Nicolas
Re: Fwd: \href{http://www.lyx.org/}{\LyX} returns error
The problem is that the \LyX macro is only defined if you type LyX somewhere in your document. You could define it yourself in the preamble---look at the LaTeX of a document that contains LyX to see the code. rh Great. Thanks, Found the code. Chris.
book (ams) has trouble with paragraphs and subparagraphs
Hi, My document is of documentclass book (ams). When trying to create the DVI, I get the following weird error messages immediately after the first character of the first word of the paragraph body: Missing number, treated as zero Illegal measure of unit, pt inserted I am not able to reproduce these errors with a simple file of documentclass book (ams) though. Has anyone seen this before or does someone know how this could be happening? Thanks in advance, Manoj
Re: book (ams) has trouble with paragraphs and subparagraphs
Hi all, I found the solution to this problem - the AMS book class doesn't support numbering for Paragraph and Subparagraph so I undid the outline numbering for paragraphs and got it to not get listed in the TOC and these errors went away. -- Manoj Manoj Rajagopalan wrote: Hi, My document is of documentclass book (ams).

citesort on lyx
Hi all!I'm trying to use citesort citesort.sty Description: Binary data on LyX 1.6.0 on Mac OS X by just putting \usepackage{citesort} in the preamble. However, when I try to use it, it gives the following error:"A number should have been here; I inserted `0'.(If you can't figure out why I needed to see a number,look up `weird error' in the index to The TeXbook.)"I looked up weird error, and it basically said read TeXbook. Searching through google, it seems citesort conflicts with babel. However, babel seems to be automatically added to a document in LyX. Is there any way to resolve the two or get citesort to work? Or anyway to accomplish the same effect as citesort within LyX?Thank you all for any help.

Re: Is it possible to insert bibliography after the appendices?
I am not sure if Charles' solution will always work. I myself had a similiar problem. I had several child documents, each of them describing a chapter of a book. One of the child documents had an appendix, and the result was that all the child documents (i.e. chapters) following the one with the appendix appeared as part of the appendix itself. In my case I was using the memoir class. To solve the problem I used \begin{subappendices} and \end{subappendices}, which is part of the appendix package that is natively supported by the memoir class. In your case I guess you should use \begin{appendices} and \end{appendices}. That is, forget about Lyx's support of appendices and insert those commands inside an ERT insert at the beginning and end of your appendix. You may also need to load the appendix package in the document preamble with \usepackage{appendix}. Take a look here for more info: http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=appendix Hope this helps Cheers, Nicolás charles reid wrote: Hi Manoj - This has a pretty easy solution. You can put the appendix into a child document[s] (i.e. its own Lyx file or files). Then, in your thesis, you can do Insert > File > Child Document There will be a small gray box in your Lyx document that now represents the Appendix file. Next, you can go to a line after that gray box and do Insert > List / TOC > BibTeX Bibliography (or whatever you want to put after the Appendix) and make sure its gray box goes after the Appendix's gray box. I just tested this out to make sure it works OK using LyX 1.5.6. (Note that if you are using macros in your Appendix, you'll have to also include those in the document before you run the latex part. You could even put those macros in their own file and include them as a child document.)

Problem with full-screen mode: can you reproduce?
Hi! This is related to LyX 1.6 on Windows. When I enter into full-screen mode (pressing F11) when no document is opened (i.e. just the welcome screen with the LyX logo is visible), I cannot go back. Nothing works. Neither F11 nor Ctrl-Q nor any other thing. LyX hangs and I have to kill it. Can someone reproduce this problem? Cheers, Nicolás
[ANNOUNCE] LyX 1.5.7 is released
Public release of LyX version 1.5.7 We are pleased to announce the release of LyX 1.5.7. This is the sixth maintenance release in the 1.5.x cycle and it is expected to be the final release in this series, since a new series of stable releases has just been introduced by our new major release, LyX 1.6.0. Besides the obligatory bug fixes, the main feature of this release is the ability to read files created by LyX 1.6.0 (this feature requires python 2.3.4 or newer). All users who intend to stick with the 1.5.x series for the time being are encouraged to upgrade to this version. A detailed list of changes is appended below, remaining known problems are listed in the file RELEASE-NOTES. In case you are wondering what LyX is, here is what http://www.lyx.org/ has to say on the subject: LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based on the structure of your documents, not their appearance. It is released under a Free Software / Open Source license. LyX is for people that write and want their writing to look great, right out of the box. No more endless tinkering with formatting details, 'finger painting' font attributes or futzing around with page boundaries. You just write. In the background, Prof. Knuth's legendary TeX typesetting engine makes you look good. On screen, LyX looks like any word processor; its printed output -- or richly cross-referenced PDF, just as readily produced -- looks like nothing else. Gone are the days of industrially bland .docs, all looking similarly not-quite-right, yet coming out unpredictably different on different printer drivers. Gone are the crashes 'eating' your dissertation the evening before going to press. LyX is stable and fully featured. It is a multi-platform, fully internationalized application running natively on Unix/Linux, the Macintosh and modern Windows platforms. You can download LyX 1.5.7 here (the .bz2 are compressed with bzip2, which yields smaller files): ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/lyx/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz ftp://ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/lyx/lyx-1.5.7.tar.bz2 and it should propagate shortly to the following mirrors (which will also host the .bz2 versions): ftp://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz http://lyx.cybermirror.org/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/publishing/tex/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/X11/LyX/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz http://sunsite.icm.edu.pl/pub/unix/editors/lyx/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz http://lyx.mirror.fr/stable/1.5.x/lyx-1.5.7.tar.gz Prebuilt binaries (rpms for Linux distributions, Mac OS X and Windows installers) should soon be available at ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.5.7/ If you already have the sources of the previous release, you may want to apply one of the following patches instead ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/patch-1.5.7.gz ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.5.x/patch-1.5.7.bz2 If you find what you think is a bug in LyX 1.5.7, you may either e-mail the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel lists.lyx.org), or open a bug report at http://bugzilla.lyx.org If you're having trouble using the new version of LyX, or have a question, first check out http://www.lyx.org/help/. If you can't find the answer there, e-mail the LyX users' list (lyx-users lists.lyx.org). Enjoy! The LyX team. What's new in version 1.5.7? ** Updates: *** * IMPORTING LyX 1.6.x DOCUMENTS - The lyx2lyx framework has been updated to be the same as LyX 1.6.0. This means that now all documents from version 1.6.x can be imported directly. * DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION - Updated localization of the user interface for Catalan, Czech, French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Turkish, and Ukrainian. - New Catalan translations of the Intro manual and the example file ItemizeBullets.lyx. - New Ukrainian translation of the Intro manual. - The Minipage.lyx and listings.lyx example files have been removed. Their content is covered by the ExtendedObjects manual. * DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT - New layout file for ACM SIGPLAN conference papers. - New layout file for journal articles of the Inderscience publishing group. - New layout file and template for journal articles of the Elsevier publishing group.

Re: Problems with Instant Preview in 1.6.0
A S wrote: Hi, Instant Preview doesn't work well for me with LyX 1.6.0. It only displays certain parts of the maths formulas. In contrast, LyX 1.5.3 never had a problem with this (although some earlier versions did, as well). Can this be fixed somehow? Howcome it works with 1.5.3 but not 1.6.0 running on the same system? Regards, Alex I just loaded a paper with a nontrivial number of nontrivial formulas into 1.6.0 (with IP on), and they all displayed correctly. What OS are you running? Does the problem occur if you turn IP on and then load the document, or only if you load the document (with IP off) and then turn IP on? (I've noticed that if I turn IP on with a document open and then cursor into and out of a math inset to trigger IP, the inset I moved through sometimes turns invisible, as if IP is returning a null document as a rendition -- but other insets look ok, and if I unload/reload the document, it's fine.) Lastly, are you saying that formulas are truncated, or just that certain characters go missing in the middle of a formula? The latter might indicate a problem with your display fonts. /Paul
