Extra lyx layouts missing from Windows distribution of Lyx 1.3.6?
I just installed the Windows version of 1.3.6. I'm excited to fianlly be able to use this program easily under Windows. One thing I noticed is that even after installing, I can't seem to select the hollywood style (among others), from the New from template option. It tells me that the layout is missing. I'm a bit baffled as to why, because the various Lyx help files imply that the styles I'm missing are part of the Lyx distribution (not from CTAN), so they should have been installed as part of the Lyx install, right? Anyway, it doesn't seem to have installed those layouts. What should I do? Should I uninstall and reinstall to see if that helps? Is this a known deficiency of the Windows version? Thanks, Mark
Keyboard shortcut for selecting paragraph styles / environments?
Is there a shortcut to activate the drop-down box for all the environments? It really bugs me having to use a mouse to click up there any time I change environments. Thanks, Mark

Windows spellchecker for LyX?

I still can't figure out how to get LyX to recognize the aspell and the English dictionary. Under the spellchecker menu option, it only shows ispell as the spellchecker (it's grayed out), and when I tried to browse for a dictionary, it seemed to be looking for a different kind of file format than what aspell uses. I'm really looking forward to getting this working. It's exciting to finally be able to use LyX on my Windows computer. Thanks, Mark

Thanks, Mark the default keyboard shortcuts are in /usr/share/lyx/bind/* for drop-down of enviroments try alt-p-space regard, Veysel You can also select some (all?) environments with a keyboard shortcut. Since the contents of the environment menu varies by document class, unsurprisingly so do the shortcuts. Typing M-p-s gets you the standard environment. Typing just M-p displays (somewhat briefly) in the status line at the bottom of the screen a list of possible completions of the sequence (including, as noted above, M-p-space). Unfortunately, I don't know of any visible "legend" for the shortcuts. Paul

Re: quotes in the lyx

Use ` (same key as ~, assuming a typical US/UK keyboard) for left single quote and ' (same key as ") for right single quote. Paul
Windows spellchecker for LyX?
Thanks for all the help, everyone. I was able to get the hollywood class in the right place, and it works fine. But now, the spellchecker is telling me it can't find an en_US wordlist. How do I get hold of that, and set it up properly with the Windows distribution? (I'm kind of surprised it wasn't automatically installed). Thanks, Mark

LyX does not install Aspell, in part because on Unix-type platforms you get your choice of which spellchecker you want to use. (On Windows, you can use any one you want, as long as it's Aspell.) Aspell, in turn, installs the software but not the dictionary, because you get to pick your language. (Although, typically, your parents picked it for you at an early age. :-) Paul

I still can't figure out how to get LyX to recognize the aspell and the English dictionary. Under the spellchecker menu option, it only shows ispell as the spellchecker (it's grayed out), and when I tried to "browse" for a dictionary, it seemed to be looking for a different kind of file format than what aspell uses. I'm really looking forward to getting this working. It's exciting to finally be able to use LyX on my Windows computer. Thanks, Mark
