This is would be handy in my opinion. But, I would like to point out that the current automatic label is not quite unique enough. For example, just today I inserted a label for a section called Summary. The default label was sec:Summary. Problem is, I have a Summary section in several chapters

I've just installed Lyx1.5rc2... So far its great, but something has been bothering me since about beta2: the icon for demoting a heading in the outline panel says '2.1' instead of '1.1'. I know it is a small thing, but I look at it all the time and notice it :) I just thought I would mention

I know it was pointed out that 1.5 RC1 had some bugs with pressing enter, but as of this writing 1.5 RC2 hasn't been released yet and so I'm reporting this in case it is unfixed. Previous crashes on pressing enter didn't give me any error messages, but this time I do have some errors: wrong pos

Feature Req: Auto-manage Figures

Hi Everyone, This would be a nice optional feature. It would be nice to automatically manage the connection between external figure files (images etc) and their place in the document. At the most basic level, it would be nice to have an option for lyx to automatically copy any referenced file
