While waiting in hopes of a better method, I figured out a very crude down
and dirty work around...
First, as previously described, I wrap the section of the document I intend to
spellcheck with the the begin and end marker lines. {with or without the
deliberately misspelled garbage word} But it MUST stand out visually.
Then I open a garbage .lyx file and delete any existing content. Then I
switch back to the real file and mark & cut everything in between the
marker lines. Next I paste that into the garbage file and spellcheck that
file. When the spell checking is complete I can mark & cut the contents the
return to the real file, and paste the spellchecked content in between the
marker lines...
This at least works. But I shouldn't have to do it this way.

LyX 2: spell checker skips around whole document ARrrgGgaAaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!
Hello. I'm a multi-boot, multi-Linux user. I chose LyX for a personal
writing project some time ago. And for the most part I've been happy with
that choice. But the spell checker in LyX2 is making me wish I knew how to
cleanly export my documents to LibreOffice.
Now I'm not even talking about the horrible way the new spellchecker
responds to keyboard control. {Though some of it's shortcut keys conflict with
the ones in the pull down menu. & There doesn't appear to be a way to get
rid of it's sidebar when your done spellchecking without maneuvering the
mouse pointer to, and clicking on the little x icon} As much as I despise
that behavior it's nothing compared to the what it jumps around.
I have at times deliberately introduced non-words into my documents that I
don't want to permanently add to the dictionary. Sometimes it has to do
with quoting a character who doesn't spell (or speak) proper English.
Picture a big cartoon like character rubbing his head where somebody he
thought was a friend just broke a barstool over his head and the big guy turns
to his friend and says: "Ya shoodna awda dun that Bobby!"
Now if that were actually part of my "story", say in chapter 3, I'd have taken
care to spell check that part of the document while I was thinking about it so
that I would remember to use the ignore button... I always used to do this
by wrapping the part I wanted to spellcheck with lines like:
Spellcheck section begin gabaggge marker line
Spellcheck section end gabaggge marker line
Then I'd position the cursor someplace after the non-word "gabaggge" on
the first marker and press F7... Then as long as I remembered to stop
spellchecking when it reached the 2nd instance of gabaggge, I'd be
fine.
Well that doesn't work anymore. I might wrap chapter 10 in those
gabaggge lines and start spell checking chapter 10 only to suddenly
discover that all by itself the spellchecker decided to jump back to some
questionable word in chapter 3... Even this wouldn't be so bad
except that many of the intentional non-words are a little less obvious
than the above fictional example. And in fact I'm not sure how many of them
I accidentally corrected before I noticed something distinctive that
couldn't have been in the section I thought I was spell checking.
IS there a method to restrict the spellchecker to a limited range of the
document and/or to only check in a top to bottom in-line path that doesn't
skip around the document???
I really hope there is, because if there isn't I'm going to have to risk
damaging the .lyx file by using the command line version of Aspell on it...
Because I can't work with a spell checker that won't work where I tell it
to.

Thank you, this solved the problem. But I think this is very hard to be figured out by an average user. I hope that using "lyx color schemes" will be somehow easier/transparent in the future.

Lyx color schemes and beamer class
Hi all, currently i'm trying to figure out how to change the lyx-editor-font-color for the frame title when i use the beamer-class. In my case (lyx 2.0.1, ubuntu 10.04, dark-looks gnome-color-theme) this color is blue and i can't find the appropriate label under preference->look&feel-colors to change this color. Does anyone know the appropriate label so that I maybe can assign via the .lyx/preferences file and the set_color command a different color for this particular element. many thanks

SV: indexes in texindy and utf8
Hi I have solved my problem, and learned somethings along the way, as it often goes :). (I use LyX 2.0.1 for Linux, btw) To help others with indexes in Lyx. It seems that indexes are very fragile, especially if they are placed in other environments than standard, and one should also be aware that marking the insets with emphasis could break indexes. emphasis inside the insets are fine, it seems. Another stumbling block is that there are two places to put the options for the texindy, one in the lyx-setup and one in the document-setup. I did not have them in the document and thus the language option was not passed on to texindy. I also learned that texindy uses LIRC format internally even if the TeX-file is in UTF8 when pdflatex is used. And thus only the language option needs to be passed along (-L norwegian). In XeTeX texindy uses utf8 and may need -C utf8 in addition but I have not tested this... I hope this will be helpful for someone :). Ingar Pareliussen

So if I use this pdf+latex format, the text will be rendered by LaTeX, at the positions specified by inkscape, but using the documents font.
