Latex Errors
While using Lyx to edit a moderately long technical manual (being written by others) and exporting it as pdf and html, Latex errors have become difficult to find. Previously I could select an error and it would be highlighted in the Lyx script. That highlighting has disappeared. Is this function in the texlive package? Using Lyx 2.1.2 in MX Linux.

flush left inside minipages
Hi,I am trying to left align everything I write, so I put \raggedright in the LaTeX preamble in th edocument settings. This works fine for the main text, but inside minipages (I have quite a lot as margin notes), I still have both left and right alignment. Is there anything I can do besides adjusting the alignment in every minipage?I am using LyX 2.1.1 and Linux Mint 17. The minipages are created by the "insert box" inside nargin notesThanks, Ferenc

Jürgen, I also read of course your nice paper "Writing linguistics papers with Lyx" which reveals quite a few secrets but does not explicitly offer the solution (at least to the complete layman).

writing glosses in Lyx beamer
Dear folks, Jürgen had sent me the code to be put in Documents > Settings > Local Layout in order to defunct beamer's example(s) environment in favor of covington's. I added this code in an otherwise well compiling beamer document and got it validated. Though after reopening a first line was added "Format 49". Problem Subsequently all attempts to compile the document to PDF failed; the first line removed or kept in place making no difference. Latex error: ! Undefined control sequence 1.62 \makebeamertitle What needs to be fixed here? Thanks and regards, Michael openSUSE 13.2 / KDE Lyx 2.1.2 PS: Jürgens example lyx document furnished me along with the code could be compiled without problems * * Michael Berger, Dipl. Ing.
