missing toggle-outine function
Hi, I seem to remember I could hide and recover the outline with a shortcut. I'm looking but I cannot find any toggle-outine function on the docs (lyx svn). A search produces LFUN_OUTLINE_UP and friends only. Do you know the function name? Thanks! -- Best, -Jose Jose Quesada, PhD.

Avoid empty page for one chapter
I all. I want to create a Bibliography and Sitography section. I want the Sitography after the Bibliography and I want it starts in a new page. I also want that the titles "bibliography" and "sitography" have the style of chapter*. So...if I use the Chapter* as the style of Sitography, It starts after an empty page. I don't want the empty page between Bibliography and Sitography. How can I get it?
Re: \square aligned to the right
Ah, sorry, I have no idea about Hebrew. I can tell you something else that works in English language documents that might work in Hebrew. You can put a symbol in place of the equation number, which would help you if equation numbers are on the same side as you want the QED symbol. To do this, use \tag*{\square} or \tag*{\blacksquare} (as opposed to \tag*{\qedhere} ). Note 1: You can change the side that equation numbers are on. Go to document->settings, go to the "document class" section, and put "leqno" or "reqno" into the "custom" text box. Note 2: You do not need the Theorems (AMS) module for this to work, but you do need the AMS math package loaded. To ensure this, go to document -> settings, go to the "math options" section, *untick* "Use AMS math package automatically", and *tick* "Use AMS math package".

Random text pasting on Mac
I'm using LyX 1.6.8 on my MacBooks (OS X 10.6.6) and having a strange text corruption problem. Words and phrases that I've cut or copied "magically" reappear in other parts of my document. Sometimes they're neatly inserted into another sentence (difficult to spot), other times in the middle of a word (easier to spot with spellchecking). For example, a string like "In other words" might morph into "Isome other text I cut elsewheren other words". I had a hunch that it might somehow be related to file saving, so I disabled the autosave feature, and the corruption seems to happen less frequently but it still occurs. I've also had the cursor randomly jump to another location in the text causing me to type into the wrong place. I've noticed the cursor jumping in other applications, but not the pasting problem - that seems specific to LyX. I'm using a multi-button mouse instead of the built-in trackpad, and I do try to be careful about stray mouse clicks that could inadvertently paste text. (I also use an external keyboard and a pair of external monitors on both MacBooks.) I've searched the web and various forums for this problem, but it's difficult to describe succinctly. If any other Mac users have experienced this or a similar problem, I'd appreciate hearing about it (hopefully with a solution). -Dave Bursik / bur...@cs.virginia.edu

UI problems on XP and Win7 (not Vista)
Hello Everyone, I recently switched to Lyx from SWP, and loving it so far. But I have run into a problem with the latest stable version 1.6.8 (Nov15) on some machines. I have Lyx installed on three of my machines: a Windows XP desktop, a Vista laptop, and a Windows 7 desktop. On both Windows XP and Windows 7 I am running into odd UI behavior. Single clicks on toolbar icons do not work (but double clicks do the trick). There is also strange behavior to expand the menu options in the top bar and the slider to scroll through the document. Both of these machines are otherwise stable and perform well. It seems to be a Lyx specific issue. Also, I am using a Wacom tablets on all three machines, so it may be related to this. However, the Windows Vista machine does work as expected. Is this a documented issue? It there any known work-around? Thanks for any feedback. Andres

Re: How to use local package outside a texmf path?
Dear Stefano Thanks a lot for checking and providing this information. The strange thing is that I use 1.6.5, so one should assume that if it is fine on 1.5.8, it is fine on 1.6.5.

Have you thought about putting your packages in the local branch of the texmf tree, though? In my understanding, ~/texmf is meant to be used for personal packages, customized versions of standard packages, etc. I had the habit of working with customized LaTeX code in the document´s directory, but I then switched to the local branch of the texmf tree and I think it works better.
