Re: Problem Outputting Particular TIFF File
I just reinstalled LyX 1.6.7 on the same computer and it handled both TIFFs just fine. (My other computer runs Ubuntu and LyX 2.0 isn't available for it yet.) So it looks like a LyX problem, not a MiKTeX problem (or maybe there's something in the way they interact).

Re: Problem Outputting Particular TIFF File
If all TIFF files now being generated are playing up, I would suspect whatever Lyx / Latex uses to convert TIFF files under Windows has maybe become corrupt? Do you have access to Lyx on another machine to see if it works / doesn't work there with your source files?

"instant preview" \middle
I understand that placing the command \middle behind a character such as |, prints that character of the same size as the surrounding brackets (this particularly useful for Dirac brakets, which is the application I have in mind). This works fine when I export to pdf in Lyx. However, what I would like is to see the correctly sized | in Lyx itself, as in "instant preview". Instead, my Lyx document is filled with \middle commands that make many mathematical formulas unreadable in Lyx. Any ideas on how I can do this? Thanks.

XeTeX/LuaTeX no longer able to use system fonts
Although this is not really a Lyx question, I have great faith in the collective Latex wisdom of the list. Problem: LuaTeX or XeTeX are no longer able to find (some) system-installed fonts. I haven't tried with all of them, for obvious reasons, but all the fonts I normally use (esp Minion) are no longer found. The log says: LaTeX Font Info:Try loading font information for T1+MinionPro(0) on input l ine 93. LaTeX Font Info:No file T1MinionPro(0).fd. on input line 93. LaTeX Font Warning: Font shape `T1/MinionPro(0)/m/n' undefined (Font) using `T1/cmr/m/n' instead on input line 93. and Computer Roman is used, as specified. I confess I have no clue about the T1MinionPro(0).fd. file that it is missing. The font is there, in the sense that is available from other applications and it even shows up within LyX in the drop down menu. It looks like one of the font loading packages used by XeTeX/LuaTeX is missing it. I tried erasing the cache that LuaTeX keeps in my home directory, thus forcing luaotfload to rebuild it. Nothing changed. Any idea?

Re: Headline spacing irregular?
I'm not sure where the onehalfspace-stuff comes from. I definitely did not add it through ERT (at least not that I'm aware). I _thought_ it came from using the package \setspace, but even if I delete it from the latex header (or delete the whole latex header, for that matter!) AND use the lyx settings to set spacing to 1.25, I _still_ get the offensive onehalfspace-entries. I don't know what else to try, can you perhaps suggest something? (As I'm not sure about appendixes on this list, I have uploaded a much shortened version of the file that still exhibits the offensive behaviour here: https://www.yousendit.com/download/T2dkckhVQXBtMEpESjlVag ) Thank you so much for your help!

Just an idea: how about comparing the modification time of LyX's config file and the ls-R files in the texmf trees (system, local, and user)? Not enough. You also need to reconfigure LyX if you install/remove any other supported software. Such as image/spreadsheet converters that LyX can use - or new layouts. Of course, the layouts can probably be detected by the timestamp on the .lyx/layouts directory... Still, it would help for the case of LaTeX updates. Helge Hafting
Re: Headline spacing irregular?
On 28. sep. 2011 14:49, Lastalda wrote: I'm writing my diploma thesis in Lyx and am running across some irritating formatting issues. One of the most irritating is that the spacing around headlines is inconsistent. An example screenshot: http://lyx.475766.n2.nabble.com/file/n6840087/Headline_spacing.png There you can see that for most headlines (like 3.2.1.2 and 3.2.1.3) the space /before/ the headline is bigger than the space /after/ the headline. But for some headlines, like 3.1.2.4 in this case, the space /before/ the headline is smaller! The formatting I did on all the paragraphs and headlines is identical! This is just one example, it happens multiple times within the document. Does somebody have any advice what I can do about this? (I mostly want it to be consistent, but would prefer the space before headings to be bigger than the one after headings.) All help is dearly appreciated! Lastalda Also, if it helps, here's the exportet latex code of the section in the screenshot: Yes, that helped. Looking at the latex code, I see \begin{onehalfspace} and \end {onehalfspace} surrounding your headings. That mess with the spacing. Removing those gives consistent spacing. It seems to me that onehalfspace works inconsistently, because you have used it on every heading, but it only changes the spacing for "Fällung von DNA" Removing onehalfspace fixes that, and have no effect on the other headings. Or maybe onehalfspace is not compatible with headings. I don't know what you have done in LyX to get the onehalfspace stuff, because I don't have the LyX file. If it is added through tex boxes, just remove it. If you have a custom character/paragraph style, fix it. I tried setting the line spacing in document settings, it did not have such effects on the latex code. I hope this helps. Helge Hafting
