Lyx function allowing selection of layouts from minibuffer?

2012-01-04 Thread stefano franchi
Dear All,

I lost all my bindings while trying to figure out why my local
toolbars parameters are not followed and now I can't remember which
function allows you to select an environment (layout) from the
minibuffer. I had it bound to M-p, so that the selection of the
standard env would be M-p s, of the itemize M-P i, etc. I looked both
in the wiki and in the docs, but cannot figure out the proper
function. Most popular advice suggests to use the drop down list (with
shortcuts), which I don't particularly like.

Help is appreciated.


Best,

Stefano

Well, my bad. There is no such function. The behavior I was expecting
is due to the explicit and quite extensive list of layout bindings
found in LYXDIR/bind/menus.bind

Sorry for the noise.

May be it will work if you overscale the size of a lyx window. 
Eg for a screen resolution of 1024x768
/usr/bin/lyx-qt -geometry 1026x808+0-40
may work on some x-window managers.

 Is there also some way to change the size of the window LyX starts

I don't think that this is possible in LyX 1.3.x, although you can 
change the contents of the Menubar and the Toolbar by copying 
${PREFIX}/share/lyx/ui/default.ui to ${HOME}/.lyx/ui/my_interface.ui 
and editing it as you see fit. You'll also need to tell LyX where to 
find this new .ui file. You can do this from the Preferences dialog.

In LyX 1.4.x, the default.ui file will enable you to customise the 
LyX Look  Feel in the way you desire:

# default.ui for LyX 1.4.x

Include stdmenus.ui
Include stdtoolbars.ui

# Which toolbars to use.
#
# The second parameter are the flags :
#
# on: the toolbar is visible
# off: the toolbar is not visible

Hi,

Surprisingly, I am not able to use minibuffer at all in
1.2.0. What can be the possibility and remedy???

Further, can anyone help me on how to define
(1) a math macro, and (2) keybindings

possibly in my personal directory.

Thanks in advance
