Tables
Hello, Using LyX 2.02, I am trying to make a table with two columns---one 1 inches wide and the other 5 inches wide. When I enter this using the table settings dialog, every thing looks right in LyX, but when I export it both columns are 5 inches wide. What am I doing wrong? Does it matter that I am using the AMS book class? Hal
Spellchecking not working
When the spellchecker in invoked it either appears to do nothing or produces a popup stating We reached the end of the document, would you like to continue from the beginning?. The content is not spellchecked regardless of the position of the cursor. I have read a number of recent threads in the forum about problems with spellchecking in lyx 2 but so far none of the suggestions have lead to a solution. Background: - OS is an update-to-date version of 64 bit Scientific Linux 6.1 - compiling lyx 2.0.2 from source - hunspell, hunspell-dev, humspell-en, hunspell-uk installed with yum - devel libraries for aspell or enchant removed - default settings for configure - deleting ~/.lyx The code compiles without complaint and the configuration uses only hunspell. Earlier I had tried aspell and enchant but saw the same problem. Hunspell works fine from the command line for both the en_US and en_GB dictionaries. What names is lyx using for these dictionaries? I am guessing that it is a configuration problem. Is there some logging that can be turned on to see why it does not seem to be running the text through hunspell? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
