Re: Open File problem

[Julio Rojas]

Dear Stephan, you've nailed it. I finally could pinpoint the problem to
opening files in windows, instead of in tabs. Nevertheless, I opened Lyx
from command line to see if some message appears when I tried to open
another file, but nothing showed up.

Again, my wife's computer is using Mavericks and her Lyx is 2.1.2.2

Can anyone confirm this bug, so I can file it? If not, do you have another
idea about why this problem is appearing?

Thanks in advance. Regards,

 I cannot confirm this. I tried it on Yosemite and on a Apple Mavericks

 Another think you can try is to change the preference for opening
 documents:
 you may try to open documents in tabs instead of new window. Just an

 I'd propose to make a copy of the 2.1.1 and try if it is better with 2.1.2
 or 2.1.2.2.
 The fixes for Yosemite doesn't harm on Mavericks. The open file problem is
 not related
 to the Yosemite problems. I cannot remember what the reason was and how it
 was fixed.

Try to open up Console, note the error messages and see if you can deduce the 
error from there.
(b.t.w. the newest version is 2.1.2.2)
