Re: older lyx file (around 2009) gives error in lyx2.3.0beta1
That works well and is quite cool.
But it only works for one file and I could not figure out how how to do
this with
-batch --execute
which would evenually work well as something like
find ~/ -name '*lyx' -exec {} lyx -batch --execute ... {} \;
on Mac and Linux.
And of course something like this
perl -i.withcurly -0pe 's/\\begin_inset Separator
latexpar\n\\end_inset\n//smi' file.lyx
will convert file.lyx leaving the original in file.lyx.withcurly (for
furture removal) and once one is satisfied one can even do something
like
find ~/ -name '*lyx' -exec perl -i -0pe 's/\\begin_inset Separator
latexpar\n\\end_inset\n//smi' {} \;
which leaves no trace :-)-O

Since it took me quite some time to find out, I thought to report on
it, to safe others time and nerves who run into it. This sign did not
exist in the original and occurs after importing the file into the new
lyx version. It's mainly found at the end of an index entry, but also
at the end of some legends or even at the end of some sections,

I tried to copy the sign here, but it gave this vertical space seen
below. It might just be an empty space which has been transformed into
this sign during the conversion. Would be helpful to eliminate it by
adjusting the newer versions.
This is definitely a bug. I'm not sure why that's being added there.

Wolfgang, do you have the same file in 2.2.x format? If so, can you send that to us? I tried to reproduce (by using 2.2.x to make all different weird index inset; and by exporting the file you sent to 2.2.x and then reimporting into 2.3.x), and I cannot. If you can send the original file in 2.2.x format it will be easier to figure out what the problem is. Thanks for this detailed bug report! Scott signature.asc Description: PGP signature

older lyx file (around 2009) gives error in lyx2.3.0beta1
I am including a lyx file which is part of an older lyx file (around
2009) and run by lyx2.3.0beta1.
The error message (see below) after producing a pdf file was due to an
arrow-type sign at the end of an index entry. If removed, it works.
Since it took me quite some time to find out, I thought to report on it,
to safe others time and nerves who run into it. This sign did not exist
in the original and occurs after importing the file into the new lyx
version. It's mainly found at the end of an index entry, but also at the
end of some legends or even at the end of some sections, chapters...
I tried to copy the sign here, but it gave this vertical space seen
below. It might just be an empty space which has been transformed into
this sign during the conversion. Would be helpful to eliminate it by
adjusting the newer versions.
In vase somebody is using older lyx version, it would be interesting to
see, whether one of it takes it without stopping the job.

I suspect you've forgotten a `}', causing me to apply this
control sequence to too much text. How can we recover?
My plan is to forget the whole thing and hope for the best.

I've deleted a group-closing symbol because it seems to be
spurious, as in `$x}$'. But perhaps the } is legitimate and
you forgot something else, as in `\hbox{$x}'. In such cases
the way to recover is to insert both the forgotten and the
deleted material, e.g., by typing `I$}'.
