Lyx 2.0 beta Windows - A few remarks
Hi, I'm pretty new to Latex, new to Lyx and I like the Xetex integration of Lyx 2. I'm using Lyx alongside with Miktex on Win7x64. I've installed ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/lyx-2.0/beta2/LyX-20beta2-5-8-AltInstaller-Small.exe A few problems and remarks: - I like the concept of Lyx. - DVI preview does not work since Ver. 2 on my own documents (they use Xetex). It works on Lyx internal documents like the Shortcuts doc. Error message for both, dvi and ps export: Error executing java -jar html2latex.jar -input in.html -output out.tex --- I cannot see why it tries to convert from html to tex. - The fullscreen settings: I'd place them somewhere under the View settings. - Is it possible to add a show Statusbar feature to fullscreen mode? It is very helpful for all newbies to see some info in the keyboard shortcuts. - A Keyboard shortcut for the PDF preview would be nice. It forgets the fonts settings in the document properties (I use Xetex!) and tends to store 10% size. Currently, I leave it as it is and use the Latex preamble for this. Best regards Michael
