Hi again, I'm noticing a couple of problems with my LyX program.
1. When I attempt to spellcheck my document (I go to the spellchecker under Tools), it always gives me the following error: "The spellchecker could not be started. LyX: Failed to start ispell!" 2. When I use the search under Help for checking spelling and grammar, it says "With the document open, choose Edit > 'Spelling and Grammar' > Check Document Now". However, when I go to Edit with my document open, I cannot find the Spelling and Grammar option. 3. In the second section of my paper, I have added a numbered formula (the second formula of the entire paper), and for no reason it is unevenly placing the formula closer to the continuing text in the same paragraph, and I can't seem to change it by rewriting the formula and text. Also, the correct number of the formula does not show up (it still shows formula number (!), even though it is the second formula of the paper). Please advise. Thanks in advance, Maaneli --- On Fri, 12/31/10, Uwe Stöhr <uwesto...@web.de> wrote: > From: Uwe Stöhr <uwesto...@web.de> > Subject: Re: LyX > To: "LyX-Users" <lyx-users@lists.lyx.org> > Cc: "Maaneli D" <maane...@yahoo.com> > Date: Friday, December 31, 2010, 9:03 AM > Am 30.12.2010 08:11, schrieb Maaneli > D: > > > 1.
