Re: Superscript with ^ key does not work
It's probably a qt-immodule issue. See http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1830 -- Rex Johan Ingvast wrote: Hi I had this question on the users list some time ago but did not get any response. Now I hope to get some help from here instead. /johan On Fri, 11 Mar 2005, Johan Ingvast wrote: Hi I have a mysterious problem in math mode. When I type ^ to get the superscript a hat sign is put into the mathbox instead. I know there is a bind M-m-e that I can use, and it works, but I'm used to the hat so I'd really like to get it working. A comparison of the output from lyx -dbg lyxrc with the output from another mashine where it works yields identical result. Running lyx remote on another machine works as it should, so the reason should not be my X installation. Also running lyx as another user on a fresh account gives the same error. Therefore I don't think the error is in my personal configuration. One thing that I don't understand is that my hat is normally a dead key, but when in lyx it is not. Here is the output from running lyx -dbg keyboard typing a^b. I hope it gan give any hints.
