Lost labels
I have been using LyX with no problems for years, but now suddenly . . . A paper is already 40 pages long, and has about 90 labels, with many cross-references. Just today, when I look at a PDF output, the cross-references are gone, only ?? shows in the PDF, for each cross-reference. This is about internal cross-references, not bibliographic references. All the labels and cross-references do show up okay in the paper and in the left window. Any suggestions? Mark Mandelkern

This can be hard to wade through, but there is probably an error message in there somewhere. Alternatively, bisect. Make a copy of the file to work on. Delete the first half of the body. If that still causes the problem, delete some more. If it's OK, restore what you deleted and delete something else. Keep going until you isolate the problem. I will guess that one of your labels is somehow invalid, and that this is corrupting the generation of cross-references. Richard
