Re: Jumping back from Pdf file to LyX (Latex) source?
As far as I know, It is not possible to reverse search from a pdf file. You need to use the dvi, which supports marks known as dvi specials. I don't maintain my patches anymore. Best regards, João.

Works beautifully. Thanks.
Anyway, \text{super,sub}script are is still using math, so they are
faked. But these have the advantage over the simpler lyx $^{\textrm{}}$
in that fonts are preserved.

Does it hurt you badly? Why is lyx not using \textsuperscript for superscripts? BTW, is there a latex equivalent to \textsuperscript for subscripts? João.

Brace grouping in math mode.
Hello,
I use the latest lyx 1.2.0cvs. When in math mode, typing { produces a pair
of raw grouping braces {} instead of a pure brace \{, as in text mode. I
posted this to lyx-devel and was informed that grouping {} are sometimes
needed in math mode. Can someone show me an example where grouping braces
are needed outside ERT?
Thank you,
Joao Luis.

Hello everybody! I use Scientific Word and want to change to LyX, because SW is too expensive and buggy. I'm trying the latest version 1.1.6fix6 at Debian (Linux) OS, and although lyx interface isn't too rich as in SW, I can work in lyx as well as in SW. I found lyx superior to SW in many respects, for example it shows the title, abstract, etc, and shows also tex code! The problem is that I must work (physicist's work: lots of math) with people that use SW, and I noticed that although my lyx can import SW latex, it displays align, align*, gather, and gather* environments (that we use a lot) as tex, that is the WYSIWYM interface does not work for these environments. I want to know: 1) Is this is normal? I mean, are these features really missing and planned to be put in some next version? 2) Will I find other similar limitations in lyx? BTW, I know perl and my native language is portugese, so I could contribute in reLyX and internationalization. How can I start contributing in these fields? Thanks! Joao Luis M. Assirati.
