 There's the lfuns master-buffer-view and master-buffer-update. They do not
 have a GUI element yet (they will in LyX 2.0), but you can add a toolbar

 The lfuns are equivalent to the buffer-view and buffer-update lfuns, except
 that they compile from the master, if there's one.

Thank you for clarification. I'll try it.

Quotes with US-International Layout

[Julio Rojas]

Dear all, I have been using LyX for quite a while with a
US-International layout. Just today I saw that if I use quotation
marks they are drawn as '' instead of opening and closing quotation
marks. Is there a way to have the regular behavior you have under
language specific layouts? Is this a bug that I should file?

Thanks in advance, best regards.

I assume you're talking about the shifted key, two places to the right
of L

 Is there a way to have the regular behavior you have under

I get opening quotes with `` (two backquotes or grave accents, to the

apostrophes in sequence (same key as the double quotes, but unshifted).

It looks rather odd in the LyX window, but it previews and prints fine.

I don't think so.

DocBook informaltable dummy node

[Remy Chibois]

Hi everybody,

I'm authoring a document using DocBook book (SGML) document class.

When inserting a table using the Insert table icon from the menu bar
and exporting to DocBook (either SGML or XML), the resulting
file contains:

[...]
entry align=center valign=topdummySample Cell Content/dummy/entry
[...]

That is, the cell content is enclosed in a dummy tag.

Is there any mean to avoid this ?

Thank you.

 Hi,

 The problem is not the definition above. LyX doesn't know about such custom

 The problem is on line 47 of msuthesis.cls:
 \RequirePackage[dvips]{graphicx}

 Comment it out (put a % in front), or at least remove the [dvips] part,
 which loads settings for /a particular driver/ which conflicts with your use

 Then, it works. Here at least.

 This should not happen if your output format is PDF. DVI and PS can only
 handle EPS images so that LyX must in this case convert all images to EPS.

 If the problems occurs for you also with PDF output, can you please send a
 LyX example file? What is your OS and what your LyX version?

I assume you're talking about the shifted key, two places to the right
of "L"

I get opening quotes with `` (two "backquotes" or grave accents, to the
left of the number "1") in sequence. For closing quotes I type two
apostrophes in sequence (same key as the double quotes, but unshifted).

It looks rather odd in the LyX window, but it previews and prints fine.

DocBook informaltable dummy node

[Remy Chibois]

Hi everybody,

I'm authoring a document using "DocBook book (SGML)" document class.

When inserting a table using the "Insert table" icon from the menu bar
and exporting to "DocBook" (either SGML or XML), the resulting
file contains:

[...]
Sample Cell Content
[...]

That is, the cell content is enclosed in a "dummy" tag.

Is there any mean to avoid this ?

Thank you.

Re: Quotes with US-International Layout

[Julio Rojas]

Thanks for the LaTeX style suggestions, it worked like a charm, though
I'll like to have the rendered in LyX. As for the cedilla I can write
it with the accute accent and the "c" or Alt-Gr + ",".

I jope it works for you. Best regards.

How do you do that!? It gives me an acute-accented c!

This works for me, but I'd rather, by far, get the 1st solution working:
that's how I get cedilla-c in every other software than LyX...

I'm using Ubuntu, so it's pretty different...

Just out of curiosity: is the keyboard set up "with dead keys"? Within
LyX, do you use any such tweaks as a particular shortcuts file, or
keyboard remap?

Hopefully I'll eventually get this fixed!

Re: how can I disable automatic graphics EPS conversion (it is making output PDFs fail!)

[Nicholas Tung]

Thanks. I am running OpenSuSE 11.3 final x86_64, and LyX 1.6.7.

A test file is at http://cobol.cs.berkeley.edu/gatoatigrado/files/hw4.lyx.7z .

Re: Quotes with US-International Layout

Daniel, I guess the dead keys are enabled, as I use accent plus
letters to get accented letters. Same for "ñ".

I don't have any particular keyboard setup or shortcut in LyX.

Where to contribute to LyX

[Steve Litt]

Hi all,

Does LyX have a Paypal account to which I can contribute some money? I know 
you have bounties for future features, but I'd like to contribute for already 
contributed features such as character styles, outline mode, and the latest 
LyX feature to make my life easier -- interactive math.

Does the LyX project have a Paypal account for taking in contributions?

Thanks

SteveT

Thanks Richard,

While \textsuperscript{\textregistered} isn't quite as spatially pleasing as 
the monstrosity I coded up, it's simpler and more portable, so I think that's 
what I'll use.
