Problems with LyX 1.6.3

2009-06-12 Thread Reuven Segev
Hi, I downloaded and installed version 1.6.3 (classic rather the alternative installer) on WinXP64 system (over my previous 1.6.2 version). When I opened documents, it would not compile them. It generated an empty tex file and issued an error message about exporting buffer (don't have the exact

Anders, Thanks again. I have now been sent some trial code that works with Lyx/SWeave/R on Linux, but it is doing nothing on my Mac (with a fresh file). So I suspect there may be a real issue here rather than it me. The strange syntax thing seems to have gone away now, so not sure what

LyX crashes upon referencing images

2009-06-12 Thread Jason Lillywhite
