Whenever I want to navigate to a figure float (from both, the Navigate>List of figures and via the go-to-mark button from the insert cross-reference dialogue), I land somewhat below the figure. In longer documents with a lot of figures, the position is off more than a screen-hight (up to 3 times). I do not see the inteded float and only have to guess the direction to go (mostly down). Did anyone else experience this "feature"? It is a real show-stopper for my thesis work. (I cannot reproduce it with the User Guide, as there are almost no figures.) Günter Yes, I can confirm that behavior in Lyx 1.6.0 in OpenSuse 10.3, Windows XP an Vista. Very annoying but still all versions work pretty steadily without any crashes for me. r. Niklas

(Slightly OT): Can't install texlive on gentoo system
Hi, I'm trying to install LyX (my most important tool !;-) on my new system (Lenovo T61, gentoo-Linux, KDE-3.5.10) I saw several mentionings of gentoo systems, so I hope somebody can give me help. Although I'm working as root merge of texlive-core crashes with the error report: -- start -- /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 .libs/libkpathsea.so.4.1.0 usr/lib64/libkpathsea.so.4.1.0 ACCESS DENIED open_wr: /usr/lib64/libkpathsea.so.4.1.0 /usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file `/usr/lib64/libkpathsea.so.4.1.0': Permission denied make[2]: *** [install-exec] Fehler 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/app-text/texlive-core-2008-r4/work/texlive-20080816-source/texk/kpathsea' make[1]: *** [install] Fehler 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/app-text/texlive-core-2008-r4/work/texlive-20080816-source/texk' make: *** [install] Fehler 1 * * ERROR: app-text/texlive-core-2008-r4 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 49: Called src_install * environment, line 3006: Called einstall 'bindir=/var/tmp/portage/app-text/texlive-core-2008-r4/image//usr/bin' 'texmf=/var/tmp/portage/app-text/texlive-core-2008-r4/image//usr/share/texmf' 'run_texlinks=true' 'run_mktexlsr=true' * ebuild.sh, line 567: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * "$@" install || die "einstall failed" * The die message: * einstall failed -- end -- I don't see what's going wrong, any help appreciated.

(Slightly OT): Same happens with tetex on gentoo system
Hi, next try was tetex with essentially the same result. Anybody understanding what's happening? Without LyX I can't do my work which is in big part production of documents of all types. (On my old machine LyX-1.6.0 now works like a charm, every day I discover new (for me) features which make live easier. Thanks to all of you!

Equation numbering
Hi, I use Lyx 1.5.1 on Mac OS. Right now I have all my equations numbered but the label appears to the far right of the equation, I'm wondering if its possible to make the label appear at the far left of the equation. Thank you very much for your help, Paulina
Re: Equation numbering
HI Paula Piece of cake. In LyX, go into Document -> Settings. On the "Document Class" page there is an area for class options. Put leqno in the custom options box and it will use the leqno LaTeX option which puts equations on the left. -Neil = Neil Hepburn, Economics Instructor Department of Social Sciences, Augustana Faculty University of Alberta 4901-46 Avenue Camrose, Alberta T4V 2R3 Phone (780) 679-1588 email [EMAIL PROTECTED] On 26-Nov-08, at 7:36 PM, Paulina Restrepo wrote: Hi, I use Lyx 1.5.1 on Mac OS.

Get the chapter/section/subsection numbering as "frame-notes"
Hi all! Is there any quick-hack to *move* chapter/section/subsection numbers off the main text-body, e.g. move it to the frame (well... left from the main text)? Something like... 1 Title of Chapter 1" This is chapter 1 - This is chapter 1 - This is chapter 1 2 Title of Chapter 2 This is chapter 2 - This is chapter 2 - This is chapter 2 2.1This is Section 2.1 2.2.1 This is SubSection 2.2.1 Kind Regards, Nikos
