 The reason for this is that LyX by default uses the prefix sub for
 such references, as you create them, but neither prettyref nor refstyle
 defines a format for this. I'm not sure if that counts as a bug or not.
 Anyway, you can deal with it two ways.
 Thanks for the explanation.
 IMO another solution would be that LyX by default uses 'sec' instead of 
 'sub'.
 
 (i) Put a format declaration for sub references into your preamble.
 How you do this depends upon whether you are using refstyle or
 prettyref. (This is set under DocumentSettings.) For prettyref, you can
 do something like:
   \newrefformat{sub}{Subsection \ref{#1}}
 For refstyle:
   \newref{sub}{refcmd={Subsection \ref{#1}}}
 Of course, you can adapt these as you wish.
 
 (ii) Modify what LyX uses for subsections. This is a matter of layout,
 and can be done in a module, in local layout (under DocumentSettings),
 or wherever you wish:
   Style Subsection
   RefPrefix sec
   End
 The defaults are in the file stdrefprefix.inc. If you like, you can copy
 the system file to your local layout directory (by default, on Linux,
 ~/.lyx/layouts/), modify it, and then LyX will use it instead of the
 system one.
 I tried local layout and stdrefprefix.inc  (under Mac OS) but it didn't work 
 (still '??').
 For the time being I don't use LyX 'formatted reference' and keep manually 
 writing 'section'.
 
 Putting the above into local layout (make sure you put Format 35 as
 the first line, though) should change the default. It won't change
 what's already there.

Added this, but no change.
What I recognized is that formatted references (I use refstyle) are fine within 
a one file document, i.e. added 'section'. But when I have child documents 
included they appear as '??'

 Are you by any chance also using subfloats? i.e. floats within floats?
 There is a incompatibility between the package used by LyX to do this, and 
 the refstyle package used for formatted references.

Indeed I am using subfloats.
Thanks for pointing that out.

formatted cross-reference to subsection broken

[Sebastian Rockel]

Hi,

I am using Lyx-2.0 with KOMA-book class (pdflatex) on Mac OSX 10.6.8.

I am often using the cross-reference option 'Formatted reference' as it is 
quite convenient to have automatic addition of 'figure', 'section' etc.

Nevertheless I noticed (by accident) that in the Lyx window references appear 
to be fine but show up in the final pdf as '??'. This is the case for 
references within a 'subsection'.

This is a little bit annoying as it can be overseen in a larger document easily.

Is this a bug? Has anyone else this problem?

 I am, as far as I can tell, running the latest version of Reader (10.0.3) and 
 definitely the latest version of OS X Snow Leopard Server, which I'm using

 I have MacTex installed (latest available from CTAN).

give it the focus though).


 I am, as far as I can tell, running the latest version of Reader (10.0.3) and 
 definitely the latest version of OS X Snow Leopard Server, which I'm using 
 from a user level account. And my copy of LyX is 2.0.0 (29 April 2011 build). 
 I have MacTex installed (latest available from CTAN).

I personally use the lightweight pdf viewer Skim [0] which auto-reloads pdfs, 
supports LyX' output syncing (from pdf to LyX) and more. Alternatively MacOSX 
default viewer 'Preview' does also reload pdfs when updated by LyX (you have to 
give it the focus though).

Re: Lyx 2.0.0 OSX crashes

[Sebastian Rockel]

Hello,

I can confirm that on my OSX 10.6.7 machine LyX2 is reproducible crashing when 
using BetterTouchTool to resize the main window.
(I think that wasn't the case with any release candidate as far as I remember, 
LyX 1.6 was okay as well)

Kind regards,
Sebastian

In general for a german language document you should change

 \quotes_language english

Re: Spell checker problem

[Sebastian Rockel]

Hello,

I can confirm this issue also on my site (same configuration).

First I 'added' Gärdenfors in the spell checker dialog then suddenly it 
complains about correct words like 'with'.
Secondly the added word does not appear in any of my personal aspell 
dictionaries (~/.aspell.*)

I tried also to play with 'use input encoding' in lyx spell checker 
preferences, no effect either.

 I am using LyX 1.6.6.1 on a Mac. I am setting the document encoding to

 On my system if an article contains non-English letters, e.g. Gärdenfors, 
 spell checker gets confused. That is, after reaching Gärdenfors, if I hit 
 Add so that it does not pick it as an error, then after that point it picks 
 some correct words and reports them as misspelled, and it misses actually

 Please find attached a sample lyx file which contains a few spelling errors

 Sounds to me like you didn't have the aspell development libraries (or other
 spell developement libraries) when configuring. I also had that problem under
 linux (debian). I installed libaspell-dev and now spelling is working. Not 
 sure
 what the right package is under OsX or how to install it though.

Thanks for the hint, did use the pre-build .dmg version though (see below).

 I guess you're using the LyX-2.0.0alpha1.dmg I build on Snow Leopard.
 
 You're right, no aspell support :(
 I didn't read carefully enough this part of configure output:
 
 checking aspell.h usability... yes
 checking aspell.h presence... yes
 checking for aspell.h... yes
 checking for new_aspell_config in -laspell... no
 checking whether to use aspell... no
 
 So I looked for the reason and found that configure detected the headers of 
 aspell but did not find the library.

Thanks for this clarification and for the build anyway.

Sebastian

 When trying to improve the situation I learned that my universal aspell 
 library from macports is like that:
 
 % file /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib 
 /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
 /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit 
 dynamically linked shared library x86_64
 /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib (for architecture i386):   Mach-O 
 dynamically linked shared library i386
 
 So in fact I cannot build a ppc version of LyX with aspell now. I'll see what 
 I can do...

 Sounds to me like you didn't have the aspell development libraries (or other
 spell developement libraries) when configuring. I also had that problem under
 linux (debian). I installed libaspell-dev and now spelling is working. Not 
 sure
 what the right package is under OsX or how to install it though.

Thanks for the hint, did use the pre-build .dmg version though (see below).

 I guess you're using the LyX-2.0.0alpha1.dmg I build on Snow Leopard.
 
 You're right, no aspell support :(
 I didn't read carefully enough this part of configure output:
 
 checking aspell.h usability... yes
 checking aspell.h presence... yes
 checking for aspell.h... yes
 checking for new_aspell_config in -laspell... no
 checking whether to use aspell... no
 
 So I looked for the reason and found that configure detected the headers of

 Hi everyone
 
 After years of using Linux, I was persuaded by my daughter to try her
 hand-down Mac.
 I installed all my usual goodies - C development system and, of course, LyX.
 
 The LyX works fine, after I had got used to the Mac idiom of separate
 windows for LyX and each opened document.
 But ..
 When I click on the View DVI button, LyX behaves as though I had hit the
 View PDF document.
 Is this expected behaviour?
 Or do I have to find and install the OSX version of Xdvi?

You can find help in the Lyx User Guide under 3.8.2. Something like print 
preview I guess (I have the german version though).
There you can set up the dvi previewer (usually xdvi).
xdvi comes for example with the MacTeX distribution (TeX Live), maybe with the 
MacTeXtras.zip (then usually under /usr/texbin/xdvi).
