Re: [PATCH] Inserting references to label

[Mario D]

I see that this small bug has been fixed with 2.2.1.
Yet there still is a small glitch: when I hit "Go back" I am really back to
where I was, but the "Ok" button is greyed out, so to insert the reference
I have to select a different one and then reselect the previous (if it was
the correct one, of course).

Re: Menu fonts

I recommend compiling LyX 2.2.0 with Qt 5.6. The latter knows about
high-dpi monitors, and it uses the system settings to select the
appropriate magnification.
And what "system settings" allow me to change the fontsize globally?  I 
use xfce4, and have also been looking for that.

Have you tried
Right click on the menu panel and select Huge icons?

That changes the size of the icons, not the text of menus.

When I copy and paste the content of an ASCII file (e.g., Notepad, Notepad++, 
etc.) into a Program Listing window, the code shows up as a single line: 
information about carriage return, which is seen in the ASCII editor, seems to 
be lost in the LyX Program Listing file.

* WHY???

I just recently got a tablet/laptop, an asus t300 chi.  I have managed
to install debian testing on it, rather than whatever was there beforehand.

Most things are working great, but some, like LyX, do not make it easy
to enlarge the menu fonts.  With a standard HD monitor, 1920x1080 in a
12.6" size (32cm), and my cruddy vision, menu fonts are impossible.  I
found advice to adjust the Qt fonts with "qtconfig" -- but the program
does not exist (its a broken symlink).  The suggestions I read were from
2010.  Does anyone have a more recent experience with this font
problem?  I want to make all of the menu and related fonts considerably
larger.  I am using LyX 2.2.0, with Qt 4.8.7, which is standard on
debian testing.



I recommend compiling LyX 2.2.0 with Qt 5.6. The latter knows about
