 Hi,
 
 i'm not sure, but when using vref in tex i somtimes get a similar
 error. This is because the reference is around a page break and
 LaTeX can't decide which kind of reference it has to use.
 Using normal ref and pageref solve this problem.
 
 Maybe this is also with texref? I never used texref in LyX, sorry.

Thanks Jan!
This could explain my problem! Due to the latex error output the lyx
funktion "texref" is "vref" in latex code! So I should finish the report
first and later watch out for page break problems!

 it hapens sometimes but not always! I couldnt figure out yet when or

 Is it always grey from xfig and white from Gimp? What I got, is that
 randomly some figures have LyX's yellowish background and some have pure
 white background. This seems to be very random and different even for
 different times when I load a document in LyX. (All my figures are drawn

Yes, its grey! But it seems that this only happens if I import a jpg
file. If I import a ps file or create my own file in xfig the background
is perfectly white. In xdvi or gv I hardly can see the effect but its
grey if I print it.  
Wait! Maybe you mean something different! You see different backgrounds
in Lyx right? (I also have that) But this has no influence on the

xfig pictures rotate and have strange colour

2001-02-19 Thread Thies Wels

Hi,

If I insert a picture (in a float) in lyx 1.1.6fix which I produced or
manipulated with xfig, the picture is always rotated at 90. I exported
the picture as eps in xfig before and cant see where I pushed a rotate
button... :) 
A bug? A mistake?

Another thing about xfig: the program seems to use a different "white"
than other grafic programs (Gimp im my case). For example I import a
picture in xfig, ad some words, export it to eps, import it in lyx: the
result has a kind of greyish background in the output although it was
white in gimp and xfig.

no number block available in tables

Hi!

I hope this question is not older than the program itself:

I am working with lyx1.1.6fix1. If I want to use the number block on the
keyboard in tables, the curser jumps out of the float and writes down
the number there. Is there a way to solve this problem? (And if there
is: is there a way to define the number block comma as a decimal point?)

 In addition, you can use
 strace -o out lyx
 grep lyx.mo out
 this should result in a line like
 open("/usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/lyx.mo", O_RDONLY) = 6
 and see if LyX is reading the correct file.
 
   Pit
 

Hmm! This changed not so much! At first
grep lyx.mo out gave the following message:

open("/usr/X11R6/share/locale/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES/lyx.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/usr/X11R6/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/lyx.mo", O_RDONLY) = 6  

so, a different path as you mentioned
open("/usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/lyx.mo", O_RDONLY) = 6 ) 

I thought, o.k. lets try the new version of the lyx.mo file in this
directory path. Indeed the behaviour changed a little bit! The 'o' is
now clear underlined in the menu. But if I use the shortcut still the
math-funktion opens! With the small difference that no additional
paragraph is added anymore. I tried it with different .bind files (The
original ones!): cau, menu, de_menu. 
 
whats wrong? Do I have the right lyx.mo file?

 gunzip it and copy it as lyx.mo to your locale directory, most probably

no shortcut for floats

2001-02-10 Thread Thies Wels

Hi!

I recently updated a lyx1.1.4 version to 1.1.6fix1 
If I try to insert a float via a shortcut the former 
combination M-e o does not work. The menu tells me to use M-e a
instead (the a is underlined), but this opens the math-formual editor
(which actually should be c-m or something). This does not happen in the
help files (which are write protected). There the combination M-e a
opens the (disabled) float menu.  I tried to modify the  "bind" file.
But although other changes in the "bind" had an effect this one didn't.
I am using the german GUI.
By the way: when i changed the "bind" in the preference menu, lyx
sometimes crashed! (But the changes were done)


Hm, I am thinking about downgrading to 1.1.5 because of some of these
troubles. In the case I do, do I have to deinstall the 1.1.6 version
first (how completely?) or at least delete some of the files? (It's a
Suse-Linux system)
