Update DVI (lyx v 2.0.6 in Win 7 x64 )
I am having problem discussed in these threads: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/74475 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.devel/134251 Essentially when I update a DVI while yap is open I get a pop-up error (repeated in the linked posts): lyx cannot convert file an error occurred while running python python -tt ...

RE: pseudo TAB in lyx
Another way would be insert-box-frameless. Change the width of the box by right clicking on it and choosing settings. Do this for each column, possibly choosing a different width for each box and alignment within it. Then copy and paste these boxes to later lines. Make sure you change the paragraph settings for the *outside* of the boxes to have no indent, otherwise the first paragraph may be different to the others.

section titles styles
Dear LyX users I'm writing a document using the KOMA-Script class. I prefer all titles to be also in roman, so I added to my preamble \addtokomafont{disposition}{\rmfamily}. The problem is that filenames appear in some titles, which I want to be typed in Sans. By selecting the filename and modifying the text style to Sans, LyX does nothing, since it believes the title is in Sans. Is there a solution for this that involves neither ERT boxes nor editing stdsections.inc?

LyX on Mac OS X Loin
Hi All, I installed LyX on my MacBook Air. When I run LyX a window pops up, saying that LyX will only have minimal functionality because no textclasses have been found. You can either try to reconfigure LyX normally, try to reconfigure without checking your LaTeX installation, or continue. Whatever option I choose, View (pdf view) option remains off, i.e., I cannot convert my LyX file to pdf after TeXing it. I reinstalled LyX but of no use. What should I do?

I'm running LyX on standard FreeBSD, so I don't what difference that may make, but I seem to recall seeing that, and I think what fixed it was to (re)install print/textlive-full. -- Will For what it's worth, I recently installed LyX on my desktop with Linux Mint and I think I had the same problem. Once I installed more of the texlive-* packages (based on what I wanted/needed), it went away. I think this is fine though since LaTeX isn't really needed to have LyX. So I think it's not really a problem. I think it should be fine for them to be installed separately, especially on an OS that has a decent package management system with both in the standard repositories, and it's not always clear what latex distribution the person wants to use anyway (so they should decide independently rather than being forced into it by the dependencies).

Beamer in Lyx 2.1 with Cyrillic letters
Hi, Recently I installed LyX 2.1.1 and noted a problem using Beamer with Cyrillic letters. Beamer files created wth the 2.0.x version were compiled correctly in the latest version of LyX with XeTeX compiler. However, any new beamer file created could not be compiled correctly with XeTeX. I did not try PdfLatex since all my course slides were prepared and worked with XeTeX in the older versions of LyX. I experience the following when using Xetex: - Frame with text only in Cyrillic and/or Latin is compiled correctly. - Frame with ERT that loads files like .png, .jpg, .pdf or pdf_tex (with \includegraphic or \input) and Latin text before or after the ERT compiles correctly. - Frame with ERT that loads files like .png, .jpg, .pdf or pdf_tex (with \includegraphic or \input) and Cyrillic text before or after the ERT does not compiles correctly, no Cyrillic character is displayed in the PDF. - ERT with \caption after \includegraphic does not allows writing in Cyrillic. It does not display anything, like the keyboard is locked. If I change to Latin keyboard, everything is OK. If helps, LyX 2.1.1 Bundle version was installed on fresh Win 7 64 bit, with the latest MikteX updates. Any suggestions?

Beamer in Lyx 2.1 with Cyrillic letters
Hi, Recently I installed LyX 2.1.1 and noted a problem using Beamer with Cyrillic letters. Beamer files created wth the 2.0.x version were compiled correctly in the latest version of LyX with XeTeX compiler. However, any new beamer file created could not be compiled correctly with XeTeX. I did not try PdfLatex since all my course slides were prepared and worked with XeTeX in the older versions of LyX. I experience the following when using Xetex: - Frame with text only in Cyrillic and/or Latin is compiled correctly. - Frame with ERT that loads files like .png, .jpg, .pdf or pdf_tex (with \includegraphic or \input) and Latin text before or after the ERT compiles correctly. - Frame with ERT that loads files like .png, .jpg, .pdf or pdf_tex (with \includegraphic or \input) and Cyrillic text before or after the ERT does not compiles correctly, no Cyrillic character is displayed in the PDF. - ERT with \caption after \includegraphic does not allows writing in Cyrillic. It does not display anything, like the keyboard is locked. If I change to Latin keyboard, everything is OK. If helps, LyX 2.1.1 Bundle version was installed on fresh Win 7 64 bit, with the latest MikteX updates. Any suggestions?

I am having problem discussed in these threads: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/74475 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.devel/134251 Essentially when I update a DVI while yap is open I get a pop-up error (repeated in the linked posts): lyx cannot convert file an error occurred while running python python -tt ...

RE: pseudo TAB in lyx
Another way would be insert->box->frameless. Change the width of the box by right clicking on it and choosing settings. Do this for each column, possibly choosing a different width for each box and alignment within it. Then copy and paste these boxes to later lines. Make sure you change the paragraph settings for the *outside* of the boxes to have no indent, otherwise the first paragraph may be different to the others.

section titles styles
Dear LyX users I'm writing a document using the KOMA-Script class. I prefer all titles to be also in roman, so I added to my preamble \addtokomafont{disposition}{\rmfamily}. The problem is that filenames appear in some titles, which I want to be typed in Sans. By selecting the filename and modifying the text style to Sans, LyX does nothing, since it believes the title is in Sans. Is there a solution for this that involves neither ERT boxes nor editing stdsections.inc?

LyX on Mac OS X Loin
Hi All, I installed LyX on my MacBook Air. When I run LyX a window pops up, saying that "LyX will only have minimal functionality because no textclasses have been found. You can either try to reconfigure LyX normally, try to reconfigure without checking your LaTeX installation, or continue." Whatever option I choose, View (pdf view) option remains off, i.e., I cannot convert my LyX file to pdf after TeXing it. I reinstalled LyX but of no use. What should I do?

Hi Anders, Yes, I did. When I select New File, error pops up saying "The layout file:article could not be found. A default textclass with default layouts will be used. LyX will not be able to produce correct output". I cannot figure out what should I do. Thanks for your reply.
