Add toolbar action in 1.6 (Win)

2008-09-11 Thread Steve C.
Hi-- I installed LyX1.6.0RC2 on my Windows XP machine, accepting all the defaults. I then made a 20x20 icon named font-code.png and put it in C:\Program Files\Lyx16\Resources\images (and also in an images subdirectory of my UserDir) and tried to add the following to the Standard toolbar section

Hi All, Thank you, Paul. I used Jabref to create a .bib file and used Insert > List/TOC... to put it into Lyx. However, for multiple authors, the names are screwed up in the reference and only the first author is listed in the cite. For example, there are three authors of this JoF article

Thanks Everybody, I figured it out! In Jabref, for multiple authors, you have to separate each author's name with " and ". I was putting each author's name on a separate line. I guess you need to know a little Bibtex!!! Thanks again.
