lyx-2.02.

I found it easier to use the feature where the words unknown to the
spellchecker are underlined in the text in red, since in my case there are
many scientific names or dash-combined names.

Sorry, I cannot reproduce the 2-manifold problem. For the quotes it makes
a difference how I've entered the quotation marks. (See the screenshot below.)
The first one are real quotes. The second simple quote key strokes.

The suggestion would be to use Insert-Special Character-Single Quote or the
short cut given there.
It depends on how the 2 is entered, and I did not make that clear.  I 
usually write things like n-manifold (n being the dimension), but the 
n is in math-mode (which is the proper way).  I am so much in that habit 
that I enter the 2 in math-mode as well.

Hi,

I have installed Lyx 2.0 in Ubuntu 11.04, but I can't get the spell checker
open. Its grayed off and F7 doesn't work.
I have myspell-en-us, Aspell-en, hunspell-en installed too.

I'd appreciate any help on this

Re: Spell checker in Lyx

You need to recompile, not install Lyx. I guess that Lyx found in the

compile it as directed in the link provided.

Spell-checker crashes LyX

[Paul Smith]

Dear All

I have upgraded from Mandrake 10 Official to Mandrake 10.1 Official
and I used the rpm for Mandrake 10 to install LyX on Mandrake 10.1.
LyX works fine, except regarding the spell-checker: whenever I run the
spell-checker, LyX crashes.

Any ideas? Should I compile the LyX rpm specific for mandrake 10.1?

Thanks in advance,

Re: Spell checker Win32 Lyx

[Paul Smith]

I experienced the same problem than you. Fortunately, the solution that you
have found out has also worked to me. Thank you a lot! However, the
misspelled words are not identified; the spellchecker only says that a
certain number of words were checked. Could somebody here please help me?
Many thanks, in advance!

It does identify and correct a lot of the words for me (It is not
comprehensive but is still good enough). Spellchecker starts checking
from where your cursor is. So maybe that is the reason. Try putting the
cursor at the beginning and check. Maybe that will help.

Does that match what you have installed?

Regarding the run time error, you could try opening a DOS

command

lyx -dbg 999

which opens a window that might let you see any error 
messages LyX generates.

Does that match what you have installed?

Regarding the run time error, you could try opening a DOS 
prompt in the lyx\bin directory and starting LyX with the 
command

lyx -dbg 999

which opens a window that might let you see any error 
messages LyX generates.

It works now. I had installed the lyx_aspell_dict_en.rar file in Ruurd's
directory. It didn't have all the files you had mentioned. I reinstalled
the dictionary using the exe file for English in the aspell's webpage
and now it works. The file which used was Aspell-en-0.50-2-3.exe
