Re: [ANNOUNCE] LyX 1.6.7 is released!

2010-07-15 Thread James C. Sutherland
It appears that mouse scrolling is broken on the Mac for LyX 1.6.7. This same problem is present in the alpha versions of 2.0 on the Mac, and it looks like it slipped through the cracks for this release. Any chance of a patch being released in the very near future to fix this serious regression?

Thank you for the answer. I have solved the problem by removing the beamer package from the MikteX distribution and installing in my local tex folder the newest version of beamer (3.10). After reconfiguration, the files are compiled. Corrado 2010/7/15 Jürgen Spitzmüller : >

Key-Bindings for Zoom-In and Zoom-Out

Dear LyX users, since some time it is more and more common to zoom-in or zoom-out the workspace of an application with Ctrl-plus or Ctrl-minus key-strokes. On a Apple Mac this would be Cmd-plus or Cmd-minus. Traditionally in LyX the Ctrl-minus keys produces an hyphenation hint. Therefore we

Sorry all - false alarm. For whatever reason, when I installed 1.6.7, the default LyX switched to 2.0alpha4 on my system, and I did not notice this. So it turns out that scrolling and dialogue boxes work fine in 1.6.7. Again, sorry for the false alarm. James On Thu, Jul 15, 2010 at 11:46 AM,
