ANNOUNCE: LyX version 2.0.0 is released

[Pavel Sanda]

Public release of LyX version 2.0.0
===

We are proud to announce the public release of LyX 2.0.0.

With this release, LyX celebrates 15 years of existence, and we start 
a new family of 2.x releases to acknowledge LyX's passing from a child
to an adult. We hope you will celebrate this anniversary with us.

LyX 2.0.0 is the culmination of two and half years of hard work. This 
release begins a new series of 2.0.x which will incrementally improve its 
stability as the time passes.

An overview of the new features can be found here:
  http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX20

You can download LyX 2.0.0 from http://www.lyx.org/Download/ .

We hope you will enjoy the result!

The file RELEASE-NOTES lists some known issues and problems compared
to the current stable releases (LyX 1.6.x). We strongly recommend that 
packagers of LyX on various platforms and distributions read this file.

As with any major release, this one comes with lot of new features but 
also some bugs. If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.0.0, either email 
the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel at lists.lyx.org), or open a bug
report at http://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome .

If you have trouble using LyX or have a question, consult the
documentation that comes with LyX (under Help) and the LyX wiki, which you

LyX 1.6 and 2.0 side-by-side?

[Ken]

Hi. Is it possible to have both LyX 1.6 and Lyx 2.0 installed at the
same time? Are there any consequences to having both installed?

I would like to try LyX 2.0 but don't want to break anything on my
current work and want to go back to 1.6 easily if necessary.

Thanks

Re: LyX 1.6 and 2.0 side-by-side?

I am on Windows XP.

I believe all settings are stored in C:\Documents and
Settings\Ken\Application Data\lyx16 for 1.6 so assume an entirely
different set of settings will be stored in a folder for 2.0.  Is this
correct?  Are there other settings/folders which are used by 2.0 which
might interfere with my current 1.6 settings?

Thanks,

From memory, I *think* that on Win each installation is separate. But
I would wait for someone more knowledgeable in Win to back this up.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I do use EPS figures in my document. Where is the virtual printer
metafile to eps converter saved/stored in Windows XP?

Thanks,

 Yes, also known as %APPDATA%\lyx16. LyX 2.0 stores its settings in
 %APPDATA%\LyX2.0. Some settings are also stored in the registry (mostly what
 position on the screen windows were left in), but these are also separated by
 major version.

 The only possible conflict I think of that both install the virtual printer
 metafile to eps converter, which helps with including graphics in LyX
 documents. Installing both isn't a problem, but I'm not sure what happens when
 you *uninstall* one of them - perhaps this printer gets removed? I'm not sure.
 If this happens though (assuming you use graphics and even notice), an
 uninstall/reinstall of the remaining version should fix it. To make sure your
 settings are unaffected, uncheck delete settings when uninstalling.

Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible and how to install Lyx 2.0 on a MAC

interfere with the 1.6 installation.
Thank you for your cooperation

LyX - MacUpdate listing

[Trevor M - MacUpdate]

Hi there

I noticed there's an updated version LyX, and attempted to update its
MacUpdate listing accordingly. However, when I attempted to download the
file from:

ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/2.0.0/LyX-2.0.0+qt4.dmg

I got an error.

Is there any chance you could check this download link and get back to me
when it's working again?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Best wishes

 I used menu/insert caption to place a caption into my program listing float.  
 But, the pld just says e.g. Listing 1, without my caption.  Ideas?
 
 

What's a pld?

If the problem is with the caption as it appears in the float (as opposed to how
it is listed in a list of figures or some other index thing), have you looked at
the source (View  View Source) to see if something funky is going on in the
caption?

All else failing, try compiling a minimal example and posting it here.

Re: How to install Lyx 2.0 side by side with 1.6 on a MAC?

[Jens Nöckel]

Yes, it's possible, and I understand why you want to do it (why throw out a 
version that works fine, if you're not sure about possible bugs in the new 
version?) So you could do the following:

1) 
assuming you have LyX version 1.6.x installed the usual way, rename 
/Appplications/LyX.app to something else, e.g. LyX-1-6.app. 
2) 
Just for safety, I would make a backup copy of the LyX-1.6 folder in  
~/Library/Application Support/ (ideally, this shouldn't be necessary, because a 
new LyX-2.0 folder is created)
3) 
Download and install LyX version 2

Now whenever you want to open a file with the older LyX, drag it onto the icon 
for LyX-1-6 instead of the LyX application. 

One potential headache is to make sure LyX 2 is the default for opening LyX 
documents. You do that by highlighting any LyX file and going to the Get Info 
menu, then checking the open with... entry. It can sometimes be hard to make 
that setting stick for all files, especially if you go back and forth between 
old and new versions. So during this transition period, it's probably good to 
check the About LyX menu once in a while to verify you're using the version 
you intended.

Be aware that files saved normally from LyX 2 won't be readable by LyX 1.6, so 
after some time you'll probably be happier working with the new version.

 Now whenever you want to open a file with the older LyX, drag it onto the
 icon for LyX-1-6 instead of the LyX application.

 One potential headache is to make sure LyX 2 is the default for opening LyX
 documents. You do that by highlighting any LyX file and going to the Get
 Info menu, then checking the open with... entry. It can sometimes be hard
 to make that setting stick for all files, especially if you go back and
 forth between old and new versions. So during this transition period, it's
 probably good to check the About LyX menu once in a while to verify you're
 using the version you intended.

 Be aware that files saved normally from LyX 2 won't be readable by LyX 1.6,
 so after some time you'll probably be happier working with the new version.

 Hi. Is it possible to have both LyX 1.6 and Lyx 2.0 installed at the
 same time? Are there any consequences to having both installed?

 I would like to try LyX 2.0 but don't want to break anything on my
 current work and want to go back to 1.6 easily if necessary.

 Thanks

Change margins to handle recto and verso pages in Memoir

[george legge]

Hi to the most helpful users-list I know,

I am using memoir to print a book, with a wide margin for graphics.

As I don't need this wide empty margin when printing pagenotes,

I need to change margins for the page notes at the end of each chapter.

I can do this with the preamble code:


 \newenvironment{changemargin}[2]{%

\begin{list}{}{%

\setlength{\leftmargin}{#1}%

\setlength{\rightmargin}{#2}}%

\item[]}{\end{list}}


 Then in ERT in the text:

\clearpage

\begin{changemargin}{0cm}{-2.8cm}

\printpagenotes*

\end{changemargin}


 Since some page notes run for two pages, I need to cope with recto and
verso pages, whereas the above values need to be set up for one or the
other.

I have tried innermargin  outermargin or spinemargin  edgemargin with no
recognition.

Do I need to use Boolean programing (ifrecto or ifverso) to handle this
switching of margins, or does memoir have a simpler way?


I would greatly appreciate advice on this one.

Cheers, George Legge

LyX 2.0 on Windows

[Stephen Harwin]

Hi,

I am not able download 2.0 for Windows from http://www.lyx.org/Download/#toc3.  
Which download do I grab from the mirror site if this is the first time I am 
installing a latex package?

Thanks
Steve

Re: LyX 2.0 on Windows

[Jim Oldfield]

You should use LyX-2.0.0-2-Installer-Bundle.exe (whereas the one for those with 
LaTeX already installed is LyX-2.0.0-2-Installer.exe).

Make sure you are using LyX-2.0.0-2 and NOT LyX-2.0.0-1, which seems to still 
be 
on at least one mirror.

Here is the direct link you want
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/2.0.0/LyX-2.0.0-2-Installer-Bundle.exe
I just tested it, and it is working (not as fast, but working).

BTW, I prefer to install MikTeX with the net installer and then install the
LyX alone, but you decide.

If you want to install them as I do, just install MikTeX from
http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/win32/miktex/setup/setup-2.9.3959.exe .
And then install LyX from
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/2.0.0/LyX-2.0.0-2-Installer.exe .

Regular expression documentation

[Andrew Parsloe]

As the ability to search for regular expressions is one of the `big' new 
features of LyX 2.0, I think there should be a more expansive treatment 
of them than the brief section in the User's Guide.


TeXworks is installed with MikTeX these days and has what looks to be an 
excellent section in its manual (Appendix B) on regular expressions -- 
tables of them with introductory and explanatory comment. It looks more 
helpful to me than the Wikipedia article referenced in the User's Guide. 
The appendix begins, `As TEXworks is built on Qt4, the available regular 
expressions—which are often referred to as regexp—are a subset of those 
found in Qt4' so presumably these will be the same as are used in LyX. 
Since TeXworks is distributed under the Gnu GPL version 2, perhaps it 
would be possible to `borrow/share' the appendix and insert it into the 
Additonal Features (?) manual (with due acknowledgement)?

Please feel free to write a draft of this section; you can open the
existing manual and save it as an ordinary file, then activate change
tracking and so as you will.

I do not myself know exactly what regex syntax is supported, but maybe
experimentation is the best way to find out, anyway.

 Yes, also known as %APPDATA%\lyx16. LyX 2.0 stores its settings in
 %APPDATA%\LyX2.0. Some settings are also stored in the registry (mostly what
 position on the screen windows were left in), but these are also separated by
 major version.

 The only possible conflict I think of that both install the virtual printer
 metafile to eps converter, which helps with including graphics in LyX
 documents. Installing both isn't a problem, but I'm not sure what happens when
 you *uninstall* one of them - perhaps this printer gets removed? I'm not sure.
 If this happens though (assuming you use graphics and even notice), an
 uninstall/reinstall of the remaining version should fix it. To make sure your
 settings are unaffected, uncheck delete settings when uninstalling.

LyX - MacUpdate listing

[Trevor M - MacUpdate]

Hi there

I noticed there's an updated version LyX, and attempted to update its
MacUpdate listing accordingly. However, when I attempted to download the
file from:

ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/2.0.0/LyX-2.0.0+qt4.dmg

I got an error.

Is there any chance you could check this download link and get back to me
when it's working again?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Best wishes

 I used menu/insert caption to place a caption into my program listing float.  
 But, the pld just says e.g. Listing 1, without my caption.  Ideas?
 
 

What's a pld?

If the problem is with the caption as it appears in the float (as opposed to how
it is listed in a list of figures or some other index thing), have you looked at
the source (View  View Source) to see if something funky is going on in the
caption?

All else failing, try compiling a minimal example and posting it here.

Re: How to install Lyx 2.0 side by side with 1.6 on a MAC?

[Jens Nöckel]

Yes, it's possible, and I understand why you want to do it (why throw out a 
version that works fine, if you're not sure about possible bugs in the new 
version?) So you could do the following:

1) 
assuming you have LyX version 1.6.x installed the usual way, rename 
/Appplications/LyX.app to something else, e.g. LyX-1-6.app. 
2) 
Just for safety, I would make a backup copy of the LyX-1.6 folder in  
~/Library/Application Support/ (ideally, this shouldn't be necessary, because a 
new LyX-2.0 folder is created)
3) 
Download and install LyX version 2

Now whenever you want to open a file with the older LyX, drag it onto the icon 
for LyX-1-6 instead of the LyX application. 

One potential headache is to make sure LyX 2 is the default for opening LyX 
documents. You do that by highlighting any LyX file and going to the Get Info 
menu, then checking the open with... entry. It can sometimes be hard to make 
that setting stick for all files, especially if you go back and forth between 
old and new versions. So during this transition period, it's probably good to 
check the About LyX menu once in a while to verify you're using the version 
you intended.

Be aware that files saved normally from LyX 2 won't be readable by LyX 1.6, so 
after some time you'll probably be happier working with the new version.

Change margins to handle recto and verso pages in Memoir

[george legge]

Hi to the most helpful users-list I know,

I am using memoir to print a book, with a wide margin for graphics.

As I don't need this wide empty margin when printing pagenotes,

I need to change margins for the page notes at the end of each chapter.

I can do this with the preamble code:


 \newenvironment{changemargin}[2]{%

\begin{list}{}{%

\setlength{\leftmargin}{#1}%

\setlength{\rightmargin}{#2}}%

\item[]}{\end{list}}


 Then in ERT in the text:

\clearpage

\begin{changemargin}{0cm}{-2.8cm}

\printpagenotes*

\end{changemargin}


 Since some page notes run for two pages, I need to cope with recto and
verso pages, whereas the above values need to be set up for one or the
other.

I have tried innermargin  outermargin or spinemargin  edgemargin with no
recognition.

Do I need to use Boolean programing (ifrecto or ifverso) to handle this
switching of margins, or does memoir have a simpler way?


I would greatly appreciate advice on this one.

Cheers, George Legge

LyX 2.0 on Windows

Hi,

I am not able download 2.0 for Windows from http://www.lyx.org/Download/#toc3.

Thanks

Re: LyX 2.0 on Windows

[Jim Oldfield]

You should use LyX-2.0.0-2-Installer-Bundle.exe (whereas the one for those with 
LaTeX already installed is LyX-2.0.0-2-Installer.exe).

Make sure you are using LyX-2.0.0-2 and NOT LyX-2.0.0-1, which seems to still 
be 
on at least one mirror.

Here is the direct link you want
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/2.0.0/LyX-2.0.0-2-Installer-Bundle.exe
I just tested it, and it is working (not as fast, but working).

BTW, I prefer to install MikTeX with the net installer and then install the
LyX alone, but you decide.

If you want to install them as I do, just install MikTeX from
http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/win32/miktex/setup/setup-2.9.3959.exe .
And then install LyX from
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/2.0.0/LyX-2.0.0-2-Installer.exe .

Regular expression documentation

[Andrew Parsloe]

As the ability to search for regular expressions is one of the `big' new 
features of LyX 2.0, I think there should be a more expansive treatment 
of them than the brief section in the User's Guide.


TeXworks is installed with MikTeX these days and has what looks to be an 
excellent section in its manual (Appendix B) on regular expressions -- 
tables of them with introductory and explanatory comment. It looks more 
helpful to me than the Wikipedia article referenced in the User's Guide. 
The appendix begins, `As TEXworks is built on Qt4, the available regular 
expressions—which are often referred to as regexp—are a subset of those 
found in Qt4' so presumably these will be the same as are used in LyX. 
Since TeXworks is distributed under the Gnu GPL version 2, perhaps it 
would be possible to `borrow/share' the appendix and insert it into the 
Additonal Features (?) manual (with due acknowledgement)?

Please feel free to write a draft of this section; you can open the
existing manual and save it as an ordinary file, then activate change
tracking and so as you will.

I do not myself know exactly what regex syntax is supported, but maybe
experimentation is the best way to find out, anyway.

Public release of LyX version 2.0.0
===

We are proud to announce the public release of LyX 2.0.0.

With this release, LyX celebrates 15 years of existence, and we start 
a new family of 2.x releases to acknowledge LyX's passing from a child
to an adult. We hope you will celebrate this anniversary with us.

LyX 2.0.0 is the culmination of two and half years of hard work. This 
release begins a new series of 2.0.x which will incrementally improve its 
stability as the time passes.

An overview of the new features can be found here:
  http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX20

You can download LyX 2.0.0 from http://www.lyx.org/Download/ .

We hope you will enjoy the result!

The file RELEASE-NOTES lists some known issues and problems compared
to the current stable releases (LyX 1.6.x). We strongly recommend that 
packagers of LyX on various platforms and distributions read this file.

As with any major release, this one comes with lot of new features but 
also some bugs. If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.0.0, either email 
the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel at lists.lyx.org), or open a bug
report at http://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome .

If you have trouble using LyX or have a question, consult the

LyX 1.6 and 2.0 side-by-side?

[Ken]

Hi. Is it possible to have both LyX 1.6 and Lyx 2.0 installed at the
same time? Are there any consequences to having both installed?

I would like to try LyX 2.0 but don't want to break anything on my
current work and want to go back to 1.6 easily if necessary.

Thanks

Re: LyX 1.6 and 2.0 side-by-side?

[Ken]

I am on Windows XP.

I believe all settings are stored in C:\Documents and
Settings\Ken\Application Data\lyx16 for 1.6 so assume an entirely
different set of settings will be stored in a folder for 2.0.  Is this
correct?  Are there other settings/folders which are used by 2.0 which
might interfere with my current 1.6 settings?

Thanks,
Ken

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I do use EPS figures in my document. Where is the virtual printer
"metafile to eps converter" saved/stored in Windows XP?

How to install Lyx 2.0 side by side with 1.6 on a MAC?

[Pierfranco Minsenti]

Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible and how to install Lyx 2.0 on a MAC
OS X (10.6 Snow Leopard) as a a separate installation so that it doesn't
interfere with the 1.6 installation.
Thank you for your cooperation

LyX - MacUpdate listing

[Trevor M - MacUpdate]

Hi there

I noticed there's an updated version LyX, and attempted to update its
MacUpdate listing accordingly. However, when I attempted to download the
file from:

ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/2.0.0/LyX-2.0.0+qt4.dmg

I got an error.

Is there any chance you could check this download link and get back to me
when it's working again?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Best wishes

What's a "pld"?

If the problem is with the caption as it appears in the float (as opposed to how
it is listed in a list of figures or some other index thing), have you looked at
the source (View > View Source) to see if something funky is going on in the
caption?

All else failing, try compiling a minimal example and posting it here.

Can you provide a small example file?

Re: How to install Lyx 2.0 side by side with 1.6 on a MAC?

[Jens Nöckel]

Yes, it's possible, and I understand why you want to do it (why throw out a 
version that works fine, if you're not sure about possible bugs in the new 
version?) So you could do the following:

1) 
assuming you have LyX version 1.6.x installed the usual way, rename 
/Appplications/LyX.app to something else, e.g. LyX-1-6.app. 
2) 
Just for safety, I would make a backup copy of the LyX-1.6 folder in  
~/Library/Application Support/ (ideally, this shouldn't be necessary, because a 
new LyX-2.0 folder is created)
3) 
Download and install LyX version 2

Now whenever you want to open a file with the older LyX, drag it onto the icon 
for LyX-1-6 instead of the LyX application. 

One potential headache is to make sure LyX 2 is the default for opening LyX 
documents. You do that by highlighting any LyX file and going to the "Get Info" 
menu, then checking the "open with..." entry. It can sometimes be hard to make 
that setting stick for all files, especially if you go back and forth between 
old and new versions. So during this transition period, it's probably good to 
check the "About LyX" menu once in a while to verify you're using the version 
you intended.

Be aware that files saved normally from LyX 2 won't be readable by LyX 1.6, so 
after some time you'll probably be happier working with the new version.

Once LyX-1.6.10 comes out (which won't be long), it will be able to
read LyX-2.0 files. So even this won't be a problem.

Public release of LyX version 2.0.0

We are proud to announce the public release of LyX 2.0.0.

With this release, LyX celebrates 15 years of existence, and we start
a new family of 2.x releases to acknowledge LyX's passing from a child
to an adult. We hope you will celebrate this anniversary with us.

LyX 2.0.0 is the culmination of two and half years of hard work. This
release begins a new series of 2.0.x which will incrementally improve its
stability as the time passes.

An overview of the new features can be found here:
  http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX20

You can download LyX 2.0.0 from http://www.lyx.org/Download/ .

We hope you will enjoy the result!

The file RELEASE-NOTES lists some known issues and problems compared
to the current stable releases (LyX 1.6.x). We strongly recommend that
packagers of LyX on various platforms and distributions read this file.

As with any major release, this one comes with lot of new features but
also some bugs. If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.0.0, either  
email
the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel at lists.lyx.org), or open a

report at http://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome .

If you have trouble using LyX or have a question, consult the

I have the exact same question but on Ubuntu Linux 10.04 (Lucid).

There were some plans to provide a PPA but I'm not sure that this was
done. Regards

Toss 1.6!

Done that when rc1 came out and never looked back.

Change margins to handle recto and verso pages in Memoir

[george legge]

Hi to the most helpful users-list I know,

I am using memoir to print a book, with a wide margin for graphics.

As I don't need this wide empty margin when printing pagenotes,

I need to change margins for the page notes at the end of each chapter.

I can do this with the preamble code:


 \newenvironment{changemargin}[2]{%

\begin{list}{}{%

\setlength{\leftmargin}{#1}%

\setlength{\rightmargin}{#2}}%

\item[]}{\end{list}}


 Then in ERT in the text:

\clearpage

\begin{changemargin}{0cm}{-2.8cm}

\printpagenotes*

\end{changemargin}


 Since some page notes run for two pages, I need to cope with recto and
verso pages, whereas the above values need to be set up for one or the
other.

I have tried innermargin & outermargin or spinemargin & edgemargin with no
recognition.

Do I need to use Boolean programing (ifrecto or ifverso) to handle this
switching of margins, or does memoir have a simpler way?


I would greatly appreciate advice on this one.

Cheers, George Legge

LyX 2.0 on Windows

[Stephen Harwin]

Hi,

I am not able download 2.0 for Windows from http://www.lyx.org/Download/#toc3.  
Which download do I grab from the mirror site if this is the first time I am 
installing a latex package?

Thanks
Steve

Re: LyX 2.0 on Windows

[Jim Oldfield]

You should use LyX-2.0.0-2-Installer-Bundle.exe (whereas the one for those with 
LaTeX already installed is LyX-2.0.0-2-Installer.exe).

Make sure you are using LyX-2.0.0-2 and NOT LyX-2.0.0-1, which seems to still 
be 
on at least one mirror.

Sorry,

I do not seem to be able to find a 2.0.0-2 installer for download let alone a 
Bundle.  Can you send me a link?  Most of the mirror sites fail.

Thanks

Here is the direct link you want
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/2.0.0/LyX-2.0.0-2-Installer-Bundle.exe
I just tested it, and it is working (not as fast, but working).

BTW, I prefer to install MikTeX with the net installer and then install the
LyX alone, but you decide.

If you want to install them as I do, just install MikTeX from
http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/win32/miktex/setup/setup-2.9.3959.exe .
And then install LyX from
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/2.0.0/LyX-2.0.0-2-Installer.exe .


Take care,

Regular expression documentation

[Andrew Parsloe]

As the ability to search for regular expressions is one of the `big' new 
features of LyX 2.0, I think there should be a more expansive treatment 
of them than the brief section in the User's Guide.


TeXworks is installed with MikTeX these days and has what looks to be an 
excellent section in its manual (Appendix B) on regular expressions -- 
tables of them with introductory and explanatory comment. It looks more 
helpful to me than the Wikipedia article referenced in the User's Guide. 
The appendix begins, `As TEXworks is built on Qt4, the available regular 
expressions—which are often referred to as regexp—are a subset of those 
found in Qt4' so presumably these will be the same as are used in LyX. 
Since TeXworks is distributed under the Gnu GPL version 2, perhaps it 
would be possible to `borrow/share' the appendix and insert it into the 
Additonal Features (?) manual (with due acknowledgement)?
