LyX has this for citations but not for other types of references, as far as I can see. What you're asking about, I think, is what Qt calls a 'tooltip'. In LyX 2.4.1, there will be a tooltip for cross-references: https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/8856 It will show the cross-reference number (e.g., 1.1) or, in the case of formatted references, the format string (e.g., section 1.1). Note that there is also now an option to show formatted references in the work area. This is under Document> Settings> Document Class.

Cross-reference previews in LyX workspace
Is there a way to have small preview snippets pop up when hovering over a cross-reference in LyX workspace? LyX has this for citations but not for other types of references, as far as I can see. I mean something along the lines of the now-unmaintained fancy-preview package http://user.mendelu.cz/marik/fancy-preview/#presentations Several pdf viewers also have this capability, such as Skim and Texshop viewer.

The forward search from Lyx to Skim does work. Hi Robert, I’ve just tried that with LyX 2.4.0 and it works on my system. I’m on macOS 10.14.6 (Mojave). I’m using a fresh copy of LyX 2.4.0 to the /Applications folder. Did you put your version of LyX into the default /Applications folder too? If not you have to fiddle with the settings for the path to LyX in Skim and you can’t get it work for more then one LyX install simultaneously.

Lyx 2.4.0 producing performing inconsistently on Mac OSX
I have Mac OSX 14.5. I have the latest version of MacTex installed. I have tried Lyx 2.4.0 RCx a couple of times but gave up because somethings were not working correctly. I was hoping that the release version would have some of the issues solved, but alas is did not. The issues I have come across are: (1) I have Lyx files that are fine under 2.3.7/8 and will not compile under V2.4.0. I get strange errors from the Tex compilation related to font issues and the compilation aborts with an overflow of memory. This does not occur on all files, but only on some. (2) The reverse search from the Skim previewer does not work on V2.4.0 (at all as far as I can see). The forward search from Lyx to Skim does work. (3) There is inconsistency on rendering the maths equations in the Lyx interface -- sometimes they will not render at all and stay in the blue editing mode colout, sometimes they will render to the black mode, but the size is not the same as the size of the fonts set in the interface. They are much smaller. On some files they render OK. Incidentally I am using the Euclid font as the font in the interface. (4) The positioning of display equations in the Lyx interface is to the left. The equation label font is very big and pushes the equations to the left.

Both LyX 2.4 and LyX 2.3.7 seem to work. -B -Original Message- From: lyx-users On Behalf Of Rich Shepard Sent: Saturday, June 1, 2024 6:21 PM To: lyx-users Subject: Re: LyX 2.4.0 Released!

Re: LyX 2.4.0 Released!
I compiled 2.4.0 on Kali LInux 2024.2 with Qt6 (in a Parallels VM), no issues. Under MacOS I renamed RC4 just in case and then just copied 2.4.0 into the Applications folder as usual. Again, smooth sailing. I can’t begin to express my gratitude to the LyX developers for this fabulous program. It’s been my constant companion for over 15 years now! :-) Chris Menzel > On Jun 1, 2024, at 6:20 PM, Rich Shepard wrote: > > On Sat, 1 Jun 2024, Murat Yildizoglu wrote: > >> On OSX, I have copied it over the RC4 as proposed by the OS and it seems >> to work without any problem. > > On Slackware linux upgrading the existing version to a new one has no > issues. > > Rich -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

Thank you for releasing this amazing piece of software! However, I am running into an annoying bug in Lyx 2.4 on OS X 14.4.1 (I cannot post to the bug tracker due to lack of privileges). The cmd+e command no longer works to turn emphasis on/off. cmd+b (bold) and cmd+u (underline) still work as expected. This is with the LyX-2.4.0+qt5-x86_64-arm64-cocoa binary, freshly downloaded.

LyX 2.4.0 Released!
Public release of LyX version 2.4.0 === We are proud to announce the release of the new LyX 2.4 series. After long 6 years of development the 2.4 series has a rich set of new features compared to the current stable series. An overview of the new features can be found here: https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX24 As this release ships with new features, we strongly recommend that packagers of LyX on various platforms and distributions read RELEASE-NOTES in order to get the new dependencies right. You can download LyX 2.4.0 from https://www.lyx.org/Download We hope you will enjoy the result! If a file from an earlier version of LyX is opened *and saved* with any version of 2.4.x, then the original file will automatically be backed up. The backup file will be found in the backup directory, if one is set under Tools> Preferences> Paths, or else in the same folder as the original file, if no backup directory is set. The filename of the backup file will be: ORIGNAME-lyxformat-NUM.lyx~ where NUM is the LyX format number of the original file. In the case of 2.3.x file, this will be 544, but in the case of older files it will be different. The file RELEASE-NOTES also lists some known issues and problems compared to the current stable releases (LyX 2.3.x). As with any major release, this one comes with a lot of new features but also some bugs. If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.4.0, either email the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel at lists.lyx.org), or open a bug report at https://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome . Please specify if the behavior you are reporting is different from behavior in a previous LyX version. If you have trouble using LyX or have a question, consult the documentation that comes with LyX (under Help) and the LyX wiki, which you will find at https://wiki.lyx.org/. You can also send email to the LyX users' list (lyx-users at lists.lyx.org).

LyX does not install anything to do with MikTeX. It may be that
configuration is triggering some kind of behavior in MikTeX. We've seen
odd behavior from MikTeX before, which is why we stopped bundling it
with LyX.
Also, originally, the URL was ftp://ftp...
When Firefox got that URL, Firefox then asked me to find an FTP app.
Which URL was originally an ftp link? The links below all work for me.
I've tested all the links on the download page, as well.

LyX 2.3.8 Released
Public release of LyX version 2.3.8 === We are proud to announce the release of LyX 2.3.8. This is the eighth and final maintenance release in the 2.3.x series. LyX 2.4.0 will be released very shortly, so many users may wish to wait for that rather than upgrading to 2.3.8. Some users, however, may want or need to continue using the 2.3.x series. We encourage those users to upgrade to this version. You can download LyX 2.3.8 from https://www.lyx.org/Download/. LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based on the structure of your documents and not simply their appearance. It is released under a Free and Open Source Software license. LyX 2.3.8 is the result of on-going efforts to make our stable version more reliable and more stable. Several bugs and crashes have been fixed here, but the main addition is the ability to import and export files in the new 2.4.x format. If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.3.8, please open a bug report at https://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome. If you're not sure whether it really is a bug, you can e-mail the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel lists.lyx.org) and ask. If you have trouble using LyX or have a question, consult the documentation that comes with LyX (under the Help or Apple menu) and the LyX wiki, which is at https://wiki.lyx.org/.

Brian, Perhaps I'm not understanding your issues, so take my comments with this thought in mind. When I insert a figure I use the 'insert figure float' icon to open a figure window. In the caption window I add a label then the caption text. When done, I use the trackball to set the cursor above the caption. Pressing Alt-A C centers the cursor in the figure window and that's where I click the 'insert graphics' icon. Browsing to the figure's location (usually an 'images' subdirectory in the project's directory tree) I select the figure. When inserted I use ctrl-shift s to save the figure. Now I can trim excess space surrounding the image to be seen in the complied report. Right-clicking on the image itself brings up the settings option. Clicking on that I select the 'Coordinates' tab and, by trial-and-error adjust the x and y values until the excess white space (or other unwanted content) is removed. While doing this I use 'Apply' button instead of the 'Save' button so I can continue trimming until satisfied.

I've had a few questions revolving around an idea recently trying to teach myself pgfplots. I'm fairly new to LyX and LaTeX in general (started using both in January) and I'm also no programmer but I wanted to add a new feature to LyX of a plotting tool. What I'm thinking of is on the math bar or some other bar, add a plot icon that will open a window with all the parameters for the mostly used plots (2D/3D, Cartesian/polar/spherical..., scatter/bars/pie..., parametric curves or surfaces, implicit functions, vector fields, and more). I'm still learning pgfplots but it follows a fairly simple and well defined formula for most of the plots so it most likely can be automated. And now it opens some questions: 1. Is there a way I can start work on it as a personal project (I specifically want it to be a personal thing, to see if I'm capable of this, and also it can't look bad on the resume), and when I believe it's done and an acceptable feature, present it to the developers and implement it for the next version? Yes, this is an open source project, so anyone can work on it. Whether something gets accepted into the codebase is a different question, but this seems like something that could be useful to a lot of people. Doing what you describe will take some real programming, though we'll all be happy to point you in the right direction. That kind of discussion is better on lyx-devel, though. I should probably warn you that, with 2.4.0 about to be released, it will be a while before the next major release. The sort of thing you describe would mean storing new info in the LyX file, which changes the format of the file. That can only be done at major releases, so this would have to be for 2.5.0. That said, LyX already has an extensible ability to include 'external material'. If you look at Insert> File> External Material, you'll see all kinds of options there. It would not be difficult to add a pgfplot option, I think. This would not provide for the dialog you describe, but it would be a start. See Ch 7 of the Embedded Objects help file for how this can be done. I can at least imagine a way of indicating in the external template an extra 'page' in the settings dialog that would allow for choosing of options, etc, like you describe. So it might not be necessary to write a completely new dialog, etc. 2. I also thought that the output on the LyX document itself would be a new environment (like the math environment) that can render those plots directly into LyX document without the need to compile the document to check if the plot is what you really wanted, so how do I create such an environment? LyX already has the ability to display all kinds of things, so I don't think that would be difficult. Basically, LyX just needs to be told how to convert the file into some graphics format it can display. This can be done with 'external material' already.

Re: LyX and MacOS upgrade to M3?
I think this (Windows) is serious underkill :-)-O as this works out of the box. I use Sonoma 14.4.1 and LyX 2.4.0 RC4 (but 2.3.7.2 workd without any issues on my Sonoma 14.4.1 M2 MacBook Air) Safari and Mail.app work very well, even though I use GoogleChrome and BetterBird (improvement on Thunderbird) myself. Turns out, that it was the external USB-C Hard Disk used for Time Machine which caused the panic attacks :-)-O. Disconnected it and voilà.

LyX v2.4.0 RC4 -> Table styles??
I've read large portions of the documentation, and am eager to try the Table style facility of LyX v2.4.0. I'm on Windows 11, and play with RC4. When I do Insert/Table…, this is what I get. [cid:image001.png@01DA9106.80E67870] In the Style menu, “Default” is the only possible option. If I click on the [cid:image002.png@01DA9106.80E67870] icon, the only possibility is to choose the table size. If I insert the table and right-click on it, everything related to other styles than the default is grayed out: [cid:image003.png@01DA9106.B1A0AEE0] * I’m confused. What is it that I do that is incorrect? -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

LyX v2.4 RC4 - keyboard shortcut
I just discovered the “character” shortcuts Alt + C…, e.g., Alt + C R for mathroman in math. * I’m a touch typist, so I prefer to use keyboard shortcuts over menus * I’m not a pianist, so I don’t have extremely independent movement of fingers * Because the “Alt” key is on the lefthand side of the keyboard and the “C” key also is on the lefthand side, this makes it very awkward to hold down the Alt key and at the same time hold down the C key. * This difficulty is increased by that the Alt key should be hit with the *middle finger* (which must be bent in an awkward way to hit the Alt key). The problem is much less pronounced with the Ctrl key, which is hit with the pinkie. Probably not a popular suggestion, but it would be much simpler to use Alt with a key on the righthand side of the keyboard, e.g., replacing Alt+C with Alt+K. -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
RE: LyX v2.4.0 RC4 -> Unicode in Program Listing (again...)
OK… I just found I had put the “-shell-escape” string in the wrong cell…
I have now changed the preferences, and inserted this string in both of the
XeTeX and LuaTeX converters from LaTeX to PDF.
Now, I get the (expected) warning that using the “-shell-escape” string is
*dangerous*.
Question 1:
* Dangerous, because LyX is more likely to *crash*, or
* Dangerous, because it opens up my computer to hacking??
Experience – here is some listing in LyX:
[cid:image003.png@01DA90D8.A23B6C70]
This expression is taken from a Jupyter Notebook running in VSCode (language:
Julia), where the symbols are created by “\frakm + TAB \dot + TAB = m\dot + TAB
v”
…and here is what it looks like when I use XeTeX/LuaTeX:
[cid:image004.png@01DA90D8.F0F27C50]
Questions 2:
* Could I expect a better response if I install a font that supports
Unicode, and specifies this font in the fonts scheme of Listings?
* If I install such a font with Unicode support (e.g., JuliaMono), would
that rule out using XeTeX so that I should use LuaTeX?
Question 3:
* If I should use LuaTeX, how can I change LyX so that issuing command
Ctrl+r produces the PDF using LuaTeX?

RE: LyX 2.4.0 RC4 - bug? Abstract headline is missing + bits and pieces
A difference - perhaps -- between a missing Abstract label and the Chapter label in *LyX* is that sections headings are quite big compared to the standard text, so it is easy to see the difference. While the abstract text font is only marginally smaller than the standard text font, so it is more difficult to see what it is. *If* one sets "abstract=on" to enforce "Abstract" to be printed in the PDF file, it would perhaps be natural if this text also shows up in LyX. -- Anyways, this is not a major problem -- I can always switch to the standard article style. -- Thanks a lot for your great job with creating v. 2.4. I really appreciate all the work you have put into it, and look forward to start reading the manuals.
