Can't \includegraphic in preamble or ERT
I have the layout of a Memoir book title page defined in LyX using
LaTeX, because it is too complex to be done with the LyX editor. One
line of it is this:
\includegraphics[scale=0.1]{terminuspress.png}
terminuspress.png is in the same directory as the LyX file, but I've
also tried using a full path to terminuspress.png. In either case, it
comes out on the title page as an empty box - the correct size, so
obviously it is seeing the image at one point - and the full path to
the image printed across it.
It makes no difference whether I have this line in my preamble, or in
ERT in the body of my document, or even - maddeningly - if I break the
ERT and include the graphic in normal LyX mode then resume the ERT.
However if I put the line in ERT in an otherwise *blank* document it
does work...? Also, I do have other graphics in my text that come out
fine.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to why I get the empty box?
Also, a completely unrelated question but not worth making a separate
message about, in my table of contents I have long page numbers like
xxxiii that go over the right margin to which all the other page
numbers are justified. Can anyone suggest how to get them to line up?
TIA
BTW: A while ago I added to the LyX Wiki about how to include multiple
indexes in your document. If you are interested it is here: http://wiki.lyx.org/Tips/Indexing#toc4

Announcement: ConvTex.app
Some of you may be aware of the nice Python scripts called ConvTex which
Nick Thomas wrote to convert from LyX (via LaTeX) to OpenOffice formats.
(If not, see http://wiki.lyx.org/Tools/LyX2OpenOffice.)
Well, I've just written a Mac front end, ConvTex.app, which is linked
from the URL above. It is easy to use. Simply open the application and
select the file to convert, or drag and drop one or more files onto the
application's icon. They will be saved to the same spot as the original
files.
Since Nick does not have a Mac, I would be grateful if some of the
people on this list who do would test it out and let me know how you get
on. Please feel free to let other people know about ConvTex.app too.
Thanks.

No, I couldn't see any either - looks like they have been removed. This
is a show-stopper for me unfortunately so I've had to downgrade back to
LyX 1.3.6 for the foreseeable future. Thanks anyway.

reference-insert syntax changed?
I have just upgraded from LyX 1.3.6 to 1.4.4, and I can't insert
references using the minibuffer or LyX server anymore. I used to use
something like:
reference-insert ref|++|label
but now LyX tells me Unknown action. Similar commands like
math-insert still work. Has the command syntax changed? I couldn't see
anything documented.
Thanks!
