Hello!
Sorry, I'm not very good in English Language cause I'm a German.
Furthermore your bug-report-system is too confusing for me yet.
I got Lyx in the end of 2005, think it's version 1.3.6. I use Linux
Suse 10.0.
Your software Lyx is recommendable! Even though some things could work
better, I think. So I give you that list. Sorry, maybe it is my fault
that some things didn't work like I wanted them, because I didn't want
to study Lyx enough. Besides I am not a latex-freak. So following points
mean to make things work without writing it in Latex of course:
- At de_UserGuide it didn't find some images
- Letter-modus: The word wrap worked by pushing Return, but it was
irreversible
- It would be nice, if this glide-objects (images,...) could easily be
framed
- It would be nice, if the lettering of this objects could also be
placed left-justified
- Cross references to foot-notes would be luxurious
- When I wrote formulas between the text like: One furmula, a little
text, two furmulas, a little text, one formula, etc. the result looks a
bit fluttering, if the formulas have different sizes.
So it may be good, to have the option to put them left-justified. At
least the left side would be just. To avoid tab-stops there could be a
preselected size of space before the formula.
- There seems to be no word wrap in formulas, also while I can see it on
the screen. So it sometimes difficult to handle large formulas. They
migrate out of the screen. I didn't always
want to cut them, because there is not always a need for a word wrap
in the printed text. An automaticly dealing with such problems would be
very good.
- The letter-size for appendices in the table of contents was too large
- To have the ability to underline the results of calculation would be
nice (maybe it is possible and I just didn't find it)
- It is nice to have the coice beteen indenting the text or having a
larger distance to the text before for the passages. But I think it
didn't work when I made word wraps in a Section.
Maybe this should be like that, I don't know.
- In list- or description-modus it was difficult to handle formulas
(math-modus). There where many bugs while running Latex.
Example: Modus description:
[A] Matrix for /f
/{x} Vector of /x/
{y} Vector of /y/
- To copy text of one document to another is difficult. Sometimes it
works, but then the copied text is underlined. What's the use of it? How
can it be rescinded?
- Is it possible to create individual headers?
But nevertheless I think Lyx is very fine. It also has high potential.
Thank you for Lyx!
Sincerely
Matthias Diehl
