Hi all,
I just fell across a problem when I loaded an old (1.1.6) file into
lyx 1.2pre5:
It's a very ugly file, as I had to work alot with ERT. The old file
contained
\latex latex
\backslash
begin{multicols*}{2}[
\backslash
section*{
\color blue
{
\backslash
Large
\backslash
textrm{
\latex default
Introduction
\latex latex
\color default
}}}]
\layout Standard
which correctly produces the following tex code:
\begin{multicols*}{2}[\section*{\textcolor{blue}{{\Large\textrm{Introduction}}}}]
Loading and saving it with 1.2pre5 ends up with
\begin_inset ERT
status Collapsed
\layout Standard
\backslash
begin{multicols*}{2}[
\backslash
section*{{
\backslash
Large
\backslash
textrm{
\end_inset
\color blue
Introduction
\begin_inset ERT
status Collapsed
\layout Standard
}}}]
\end_inset
The \color default somehow didn't make it through the conversion, and
consequently this gets translated into
\begin{multicols*}{2}[\section*{{\Large\textrm{\textcolor{blue}{Introduction}}}]}
As you may recognize, the last two braces are exchanged, i.e., it's ]}
instead of }], and therefore latex bails out with sometimes very
strange messages :-(
