quotes in the lyx
Hi I am confused with the quotes on the keyboard. where type the double quotes, like this: They are both the 'right-quote' in my output. I am not sure about the symbol usage in English, is it the right form of a mistake? However in the user guide,I saw some example text is right with this pair. The left-quote in lyx is slightly leanes to left while the right quote is just vertical. Are they different symols which need different key to input? or the lyx will fix them automatically? I hope I expressed myself correctly... Thank you for your time. -- Leon Chen, Imperial College, London MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have just tested the characters which you quoted to verify they should work. Hope it helps, Roy -- Roy S.

Re: quotes in the lyx
Hi Roy, Thank you for your advice, and I checked the setting, finding everything is just like you said, in double quote mode. I did some tests, and find out the cause of my trouble: if the follows a character tightly, i.e. no space, it is a right-quote automatically. So if i want to get a left-quote, i have to type the symbol at the beginning of the line or, after a space in side the paragraph. So I think problem solved, thank you very much. :) -- Leon Chen, Imperial College, London MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
