Hello all
I need to draw a thick line wind \hrulefill but only get a 0.4pt thick.
I have tried \rule{10cm}{2pt} and it works, except for the fact that I
need to hard code the length of the rule.
Is there a way to draw a rule that occupies the remaining of the line? I
mean without needing to specify the exact length.
I am looking for something like \rule{\hrulefill}{3pt}, if theres is
such a thing.
Thank you all

help to build a macro or substitution
Hello all
I am using the all-new Lyx 1.3.0 with the Qt GUI on Mandrake 9 and I
must say it is superb. Lots of kudos to the development team :-)
I have a document with a myriad of acronyms (3 or 4 letters) in it.
There is not a clear pattern on those acronyms to do a search replace
on them.
Well, I need to build a macro (or something :-) ) to do the following:
I mark the acronym in the document (i.e. EFDO), run the macro
(preferably via a key binding) and the acronym is put in ERT as follow
\lsc{EFDO}
I have searched both the docs and H. Voss' Tips Tricks site looking
for macros, substitution and anything related, to no avail.
Where could I find information about doing this macro-substitution thing
in lyx/latex?
Thank you all

TOC is allways two save behind actual document
Hello all I have a problem, well not a problem but a nuisance, with toc re-generation after a change in the document. Now it seems that I allways view the previous saved (Ctrl-s) version of the toc, that is, I allways have a two saved versions delay of toc and *every time* I have to make a minor change (an extra space or letter), make a Ctrl-s, and I can view the toc as it was *before* those extras (??). Note that the text is correctly and immediately updated in the view, is only the toc that suffers this glitch. It is an extremely frustrating procedure to do this every time I want to view the toc :-( Do somebody have any hint? Thank you Paco

1.2.0pre5 possible bug at edit-reconfigure ?
Hello all When I do Edit-Reconfigure after changing xdvi-kdvi, acroread-kghostview and so on, the following happens: - my ./lyx/lyxrc.defaults is erased - a new preferences file is created in that directory overwriting the old one, *and* - I lost all my preferences (kdvi and kghostview for viewing outputs), and xdvi, acroread and gv are the defaults viewers again :-( *BUT* if i recover ./lyx/lyxrc.defaults (thanks cvs :-)) everything goes normal and I get kdvi and kghostview again as output viewers I want to note that when I change preferences, save them and *not* reconfigure everythin is ok while Lyx session last, but all changes are lost at the new session. I have edited (as root) /usr/share/lyx/lyxrc.defaults to no avail, every reconfigure restores xdvi, acroread and gv from I-dont-know-where :-) It seems as if Lyx has those default options har-wired in some place that I am unable to find in order to change them. Any hints? Paco
