UTF-8 and the Tufte Book document class

2023-07-18 Thread R H van der Gaag
Hi all, I am writing a book using the Tufte Book document class, with the Tufte font included through ``\usepackage{ETbb}`` in the preamble. This works fine. But the encoding is T1, and producing a PDF fails when I change it to UTF8. I intend to add some Chinese text, and I either have to get

Backups are not written nearly as often as they should be

2023-06-21 Thread R. H. van der Gaag
Hi all, I have LyX set up to make backups when saving and also make backups (the term seems wrong for the automatic snapshots that these are) every two minutes. But when I look at the directory those files are supposed to be written to, there is a file there, but it not up to date, neither as

Time stamp is off

Hi all, I noticed the time stamp on tracked changes is two hours off. Solutions found online seem to fail. Is there a way to get correct time stamps? Thanks. RH -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

Dutch 'trema' not handled as required in hyphenation

Hi there fellow LyXers, I noticed that the Dutch ‘trema’ (the dots above ü ä ï ö ë) isn’t removed when the word is hyphenated directly before the letter with the trema (it should, to comply with grammar rules. In LaTeX, \usepackage{newunicodechar} \makeatletter \newunicodechar{ë}{\@trema e}

Adjusting the vertical placement of margin notes

2023-05-22 Thread R. H. van der Gaag
I write most of my longer copy using the (beautiful and eminently readable) Tufte Book and Tufte Handout document class. One advantage of this is that footnotes are displayed as margin notes. If a note is added near the bottom of the page, though, this causes the note text to extend beyond the

Advanced text editing commands

2023-04-27 Thread R. H. van der Gaag
Having come from Vim and Obsidian, I find I miss a number of ‘advanced’ text editing commands, like jumping to a particular place in the text with just a few keystrokes, or selecting a sentence. Am I the only one who would be happy to have such commands in LyX? Kind regards, RH -- lyx-users

A question about the macOS warning message

Launching LyX on macOS 12.1 (Monterey) causes a warning to appear, saying that in future OS versions, the application will no longer run, and that it should be updated. Is anyone working on this? I tried to find indications that this was so on the website, but to no avail. My dissertation is in

Dear Lyx’ers, My PhD thesis will contain lots of text in medieval Dutch. This means that spell checking becomes a problem. There is a very old feature request for a text style “no spell-check”, or something similar, that would enable users to have portions of the text skipped when
