More exactly it's within a library framework the LyX package contains - the Qt library, responsible for display I/O of LyX. It's a known problem. You may find a discussion of that here: http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/6706 > I have wondered if this has something to do with some kind of > automatic-replacement feature in LyX, but I don't know enough to figure it > out. > > Thanks in advance for any solutions or pointers in the right direction. The solution is to fix the problem in the Qt-libraries. I think it will be fixed with the next LyX package (hopefully beta1). Stephan
Unicode help
Hi all. I've recently started using LyX, and I've downloaded the 2.0 alpha 6 version used with Mac OS X. I have only one issue so far, and that concerns the use of Unicode, in particular polytonic Greek (entered using the Polytonic Greek keyboard layout supplied by Apple). I'm relatively new to Unicode, so I apologize upfront if my terminology or understanding of how it works is a little off. Whenever I input a Greek character with any kind of combining accent, the correct combination is entered, but LyX repeats the vowel, minus the accents. For example, trying to input circumflex-upsilon always results in circumflex-upsilon upsilon: ῦ always turns into ῦυ. The same thing happens for any letter combined with accent marks. The problem does not happen in any of the other document editing programs on my Mac, so I'm assuming this is something within LyX itself. I have wondered if this has something to do with some kind of automatic-replacement feature in LyX, but I don't know enough to figure it out. Thanks in advance for any solutions or pointers in the right direction. Daron
VSpace Crash [was: import fail on working latex doc]

Here's what cygwin lyx 1.6.6 sends to the command shell when it tries
to read the .lyx file:

There is a tex2lyx issue here: For some reason, the LyX file has just:
\inputencoding
with no argument. But that's not the real issue.
I have the same problem with lyx 1.6.7 on Windows 7 and 1.6.6 on Ubuntu.
In debug mode, it crashes. I'm seeing an infinite loop in this code:
int VSpace::inPixels(BufferView const & bv) const
{
// Height of a normal line in pixels (zoom factor considered)
int const default_height = defaultRowHeight();
switch (kind_) {
case DEFSKIP:
return bv.buffer().params().getDefSkip().inPixels(bv);
It seems that bv.buffer().params().getDefSkip() is just a VSpace, and so
this calls itself.
The cause seems to be the line:
\defskip 0.75\baselineskip
If this is changed to "default", the crash disappears. I guess this
never gets handled in the VSpace constructor?

The wiki article says "To use it, add to the preamble: \usepackage{layout}".
Did you do so?

default margin sizes
hello, how do you find out the default margin (left, top, etc.) settings for a given document class? Page Margins under Doc Settings just allows you to change the defaults but doesn't show what they are. The following article http://wiki.lyx.org/Tips/PaperLayout says "Then open in your document an ERT-box (shortcut C-L) and insert the command \layout. When exporting the document, you will get a picture similar to this: paperDistances". However, i just get a complaint from the lyx compiler saying that \layout is an undefined control sequence cheers!

The trouble with tweaklist is that, even in an empty KOMA-Script article, the
inclusion of \usepackage{tweaklist} leads to the
LaTeX Error: Command \description already defined
The module you may want is enumitem (http://wiki.lyx.org/Tips/Enumitem)
import fail on working latex doc
Has anyone seen this problem before? I have a short latex document (below
the dotted line) that latex crunches without error. However, when I try to
import it into lyx (file-->import plain latex) lyx manages to create a .lyx
file but then hangs forever when it tries to read it (I've also put the

I have the same problem with lyx 1.6.7 on Windows 7 and 1.6.6 on Ubuntu.
Any clues would be greatly appreciated!
