LyX can't find local packages

2008-12-13 Thread Guy Rutenberg
Hi, I'm trying to use a local LaTeX class (actually I'm writing it). I've put the .sty file in the same directory as the lyx file but when I add \usepackage{myclassname} it says it can't find myclassname.sty. IIRC in previous versions LyX would find files in the current directory too. I'm using

bug: font status display not updated

2008-12-13 Thread Jan Engelhardt
Hi, A minor thing I noticed in LyX 1.6.1: I observed that starting a LyX-Code section using Alt-P,C does not mention the new font in the statusbar -- it still says Font: Default. Only after moving the cursor away and back on the lyxcode paragraph will it say Font: Typewriter.
