2.4.0~RC4 Keyboard shortcut Command-period
Greetings, Version 2.4.0~RC4 on Mac seems to have assigned the shortcut Command-period to a strange character that looks like a grey dot on screen. The Code Preview Pane reveals that it writes “\@.” to the file. Does anyone know what this is for? I am unable to assign a different function to Command-period (it says “Command disabled” when I try), which used to work fine in version 2.3.7.

Brian, Perhaps I'm not understanding your issues, so take my comments with this thought in mind. When I insert a figure I use the 'insert figure float' icon to open a figure window. In the caption window I add a label then the caption text. When done, I use the trackball to set the cursor above the caption. Pressing Alt-A C centers the cursor in the figure window and that's where I click the 'insert graphics' icon. Browsing to the figure's location (usually an 'images' subdirectory in the project's directory tree) I select the figure. When inserted I use ctrl-shift s to save the figure. Now I can trim excess space surrounding the image to be seen in the complied report. Right-clicking on the image itself brings up the settings option. Clicking on that I select the 'Coordinates' tab and, by trial-and-error adjust the x and y values until the excess white space (or other unwanted content) is removed. While doing this I use 'Apply' button instead of the 'Save' button so I can continue trimming until satisfied.

Clipping graphics in Lyx
Hello, I have tried clipping graphics to remove white spaces and centre it on the page. I have been unable to find a detailed description as to how it should be done.

Re: crash inserting branch
Crash happens when the preamble includes the following commands:
\usepackage{amssymb}
\DeclareUnicodeCharacter{25A2}{$\square$}
In my test, crash happened at the insertion of a second branch, just typing
a character in.
