I feel your pain Richard, I really do. Unfortunately, I am in a phase of my academic life in which everything is on the "production" branch, so testing of Lyx RC's for my documents was a big no-no. Couldn't risk loosing time. So, sad as it seems, I only noticed these changes after Ubuntu asked me if I would like to update Lyx to 2.1. :(
BTW, now I understand what Jurgen meant by "no need" to indent the paragraph after a frame title for the text to remain within the "Frame". I thought that by saying it was a "Frame" environment, the text would not behave as a standard indented standard environment. My mistake. Nevertheless, indentation gives a clear idea that this text belongs to this "Frame". Anyways, as I continuously use "Theorems" (and derivatives), I usually found myself indenting these environments into a "Frame", so indenting standard text is kind of a natural extension for me. Thanks for the hard work dudes. I will go back to my never-ending stream of Beamer slides... ;) ------------------------------------------------- Julio Rojas jcredbe...@gmail.com On Thu, May 8, 2014 at 3:13 PM, Richard Heck <rgh...@lyx.org> wrote: > On 05/08/2014 02:51 PM, Pavel Sanda wrote: > >> Julio Rojas wrote: >> >>> Maybe for beginners it wouldn't be a bad idea.
