This is probably a feature of your window manager: it knows that a
paragraph popup is a child of the main window, and tries to be helpful
by iconizing them together. I'm sure there is a way to disable this in
the configuration. What window manager are you using?

Re: Small glitch in View dvi?

1999-05-26 Thread Volker Koch

Hi,
I am a newcommer to lyx and also observed the problem with view dvi and update
dvi. Following the suggestions in the mailing list I changed line 520 in
filetools.C. This definitely improved the situation, but didn't fix all the
problems. The problem I still have is with bibtex:
view dvi makes indeed runs through LATEX BIBTEX LATEX, and according to -dbg 128
it finds the .bbl file. It generates the correct list of references at the end
of the document BUT
IT FAILS to in generate the reference numbers in the body of the text. 
Setting \temp_dir false in $HOME/.lyx/lyxrc solves the problem. However, it
would be much better not to have all this auxilliary files floating around my
working directory.

I suspect that the entries in document.tex.dep are not set correctly
for 
\temp_dir false (And this WORKS!!) I get
cat /workdir/document.tex.dep gives:
/home/vkoch/nta/e_by_e/kpifluct.tex 2204895503 2204895503
/home/vkoch/nta/e_by_e/kpifluct.bbl 1333091977 1333091977

whereas when I work with the temporary directories (where it FAILS) I get
something like
cat /tempdir/document.tex.dep gives:
/home/vkoch/nta/e_by_e/kpifluct.tex 2204895503 2204895503
/home/vkoch/nta/e_by_e/kpifluct.bbl 1333091977 0

I suspect that the 0at the end of the second line is the problem. When the view
dvi wasn't working I had zeros for all four entries in the .tex.dep file.

Anybody any idea?

Re: latex_preamble+'mouse_middle_button'=LyX_crash!

1999-05-26 Thread Jerry Yuan

I do not know what to say here. We have had reports of crashes in
xforms when pasting some times ago, but we could not reproduce/fix
them at the time. I guess it is a bug in xforms. If you still have the
xforms distribution, it would be interesting to try it out with one of
the demos there, for example minput.c (just do "make minput" in the
DEMOS directory, and then "./minput").

JMarc

It IS a bug in xforms. I followed your words, and get same crash.
paste in minput produces

X Error of failed request:  BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request:  20 (X_GetProperty)
  Atom id in failed request:  0x0
  Serial number of failed request:  454
  Current serial number in output stream:  454

MY Xform version is 0.88.
