Re: Lyx 2.0.0 OSX crashes
Hello, I can confirm that on my OSX 10.6.7 machine LyX2 is reproducible crashing when using BetterTouchTool to resize the main window.

Re: Undefined control sequence
Hi I have solved the problem and as someone suggested it was something with the installation. I simply uninstalled and then reinstalled LyX 1.6.9 and now I can compile the document without any problems (haven't checked the document in detail, but it look OK). Strange how the set-up can change just by turning on and off the computer. Someone also suggested to install the latest version (2.0), but that gives me, if possible, even more errors so I'll just stick to the 1.6.9 vs for now. And while I'm at it (sorry for asking another question in the same mail), can anyone explain why some of my cross references and references just turn out as question marks in the compiled pdf document? And thanks everyone for the help.

Hi Reza, Please reply to the list in future (use "reply to all" in your email client), so that all users can help with your problem, and see any suggested solutions. > Unfortunately IEEE Tran journals do not accept the way you explained. Ah ha, I hadn't thought of that. This turns out to be the key point. It seems that in LyX, if you select an IEEEtran document class, then the theorem layout as chosen *as if* you had selected the theorems module yourself, so there's no way to unselect it. It could be that this is because this is what the IEEEtran latex class does and LyX is just showing it through. Or, it could be a quirk of LyX.

lyx 2.0 thesis template generate too much vertical space before and after the equation
Hi all, I'm writing my dissertation using the thesis template offered by the new Lyx2.0. The Latex preamble shipped with the thesis template somehow messed up the fleqn option when the line space is set to double. There is way too much vertical space before and after the equation.

In this case, I'd say "article", since the class does not give you chapters. (This is slightly odd, because it does define a chapter counter and do various things with it, but it never gets used, in fact.) The biggest question, in a way, is: What sectioning commands does the class define? If you search for \section, you will find them, all grouped together. Richard

When the document was first written, a long time ago, images with wrap-around text was giving awful results. I haven't tried without ERT and specific graphics placement commands for a long time, but things might have changed?
Re: plotting over graph in Lyx / beamer presentation
Hi Phil and Liviu, thanks for your ideas - interesting reading. I found a solution using tikz: Based on http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/15990/draw-red-x-over-an-external-image-using-pgf-tikz , I developed the solution attached - as described in the link, the image is placed in a node, and one can draw. The nice thing: the inserting of the picture can be done in LyX! I will look into the pstricks solution, as it sounds also quite easy - could you post a small example?

Re: Aspell not found
Thanks Stephan. I have installed them and recompiled. Everything is working perfectly now. I was just wondering if a warning should be included at the end of the "./configure" step, just to remind you to include the spell checker. BTW, I'm now working on Ubuntu and the jumping spell checker problem hasn't appeared yet. - Julio Rojas jcredbe...@gmail.com On Tue, May 17, 2011 at 11:29 AM, Stephan Witt wrote: > Am 17.05.2011 um 11:20 schrieb Julio Rojas: > > > Dear all.

Re: moderncv template error to compile
Hello, Uwe > > Assure that you are using LyX 1.6.8 or newer. If the problem persists with > this LyX version, please > send me your file. I'm using LyX 2.0.0. I have problems with the file Hélène sent and similar ones, and I have been sidestepping them in the manner I describe in my previous post. In an earlier message -- http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg86608.html -- I posted a MWE and the error log. I should point out that I'm only having these problems with moderncv since I moved from Ubuntu to Fedora 15, so I'm guessing it's got something to do with the LaTeX distribution (I'm using TL 2010 now) Cheers, Manolo

Re: Aspell not found
I've found this answer: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/63955 Shouldn't "./configure" give you a very big warning on this issue?

Aspell not found
Dear all. I have just compiled/installed Lyx 2.0 on Ubuntu 11.04. I have also installed Aspell, but Lyx cannot find it, even after reconfiguration. I install Enchant and Abiword, just in case, but nothing. Can somebody give me a tip on the good direction? Regards. - Julio Rojas jcredbe...@gmail.com
