Re: LyX on Mac OS X: key binding strangeness
That's strange. I'm using LyX 1.4.0 on OSX 10.3.9 and cmd-, opens preferences while cmd-q quits. as it should do... Now as far as fixing it on your machine, I'm afraid I have no idea.. sorry. -J On Apr 5, 2006, at 4:24 PM, A S Hodel wrote: I've found a couple of behaviors of LyX 1.4.0 on Mac OS X (both 10.3 and 10.4) that are annoying and I don't know how to fix them.

LyX on Mac OS X: key binding strangeness
I've found a couple of behaviors of LyX 1.4.0 on Mac OS X (both 10.3 and 10.4) that are annoying and I don't know how to fix them. Key bindings listed in the menu are: CMD-, for preferences CMD-Q to quit. However, if I use "Cmd-," I instead get the "About LyX" dialog. This occurs even if I use the menu to select LyX preferences. The only exception is my first use of LyX after a reinstall. Similarly, if I use CMD-Q, it pulls up the document settings dialog, even if I use the menu instead of the key binding.
