P.S. Does anyone know a decent margin setting for letter size paper so 
when I produce a PDF my article doesn't have insanely large margins?

Document-settings-margins.
Then set the margin sizes to whatever you like.

Note that it is generally not a good idea to have much more
than 66 letters per line, which is one reason for large margins.
A larger/wider font may therefore be a good idea if you
go for really thin margins.

insanity is all in the mind. ... :)

the question then becomes, what do you, your boss and inner voices, consider a 
non insane margin size?

I (and my inner voices :) tend to use 1 inch on all[1] borders for article 
class.

Re: HTML and URLs in LYX

2007-08-10 Thread Yaron Y. Goland
I just rewrote the review on my website about LyX to reflect LyX's much 
better behavior and to thank you for fixing the bug - 
http://www.goland.org/lyx.


It's amazing how much better LyX has gotten in the year since I 
originally wrote that review. It all kind of sneaked up on me so it was 
great to re-write the review and delete a bunch of sections that weren't 
necessary anymore because LyX's default behavior is so much better.


I also wanted to say THANK YOU for getting labels to work. When I 
first tried LyX labels I could only get them to output page numbers 
which produced garbage in HTML. Now that they can do section numbers 
they actually work in HTML.


Is there any thought around getting references to be able to include 
both the section number and the text of the section's title instead of 
just the section number? The section number by itself tends to disappear 
in HTML. Also, any hope of getting a reference to jump to the exact 
location of the label ala the behavior you get with \hypertarget and 
\hyperlink instead of to the start of the section?



Thanks,

Yaron

painless! You have made using LyX much easier.

You're welcome.


So if I may push my luck, is there any hope of getting LyX to natively 
support the href macro?

There's a bug report about this already. I'm hoping to get this sorted out.
