Any thoughts

Please send the file config.log.

IMO, it’s better to discuss this on the developers list.
So I’ve CCed lyx-devel.

AFAIK there is a LyX package for Fedora. Perhaps you can use it instead.

Simple to do this in Local Layout, too.

By the way, did you know that "Beamer" is the German word for 
"projector"? Germans have so many funny words that sound English but 
are not. Another is "Handy" which is the word for "mobile phone".




Hi racoon,
Sorry to have to correct you ;-)
'Beamer' is no German word at all (by origin) as the pronunciation 
proofs, and therefore cannot be the German word for 'projector'.
This is not withstanding the fact that Germans do use the English word 
'beamer' in the same way as they nowadays use so many other English 
words, e.g. the word 'cool'. This is trendy, nothing else.

The German word for 'projector' is 'Projektor'.
PS: and the words "Kindergarten"and "Poltergeist" are German and both 
are used in the English speaking world as well.
And by the way, did you know that 60 - 70% of English words derive from 
Latin (as does the word 'projector')?


Note: we are about to misusing the list >:o

Sorry and Cheers!
Michael

Or, as the keepemty is there "for ages" (and similar in other
presentation/slides document classes), to keep it and people who like it
differently can overwrite this in their LyXdir.

Allow application of insets to all selected table cells

[racoon]

If several table cells are selected but *not* the whole table, insets 
cannot be inserted. I suggest that instead they can be inserted and the 
obvious mode of insertion seems to be to apply the inset for each table 
cell individually.


One possible use case I just came across was that I wanted to Alert two 
columns of a larger table in beamer. I had to go through each cell and 
click on the Text Style > Alert. Would be nice to not having to do that.

Hi,

Here is a suggestion concerning the beamer modules Frame and Block
styles.

I worked a bit with the beamer module lately. One thing that annoyed
me a bit was the KeepEmpty setting for both Frame and Block.

I was wondering why it is set for those two Styles and maybe one
could do without. Both styles insert automatically an argument which
will make sure that the style is kept anyway even if no title is
entered.


Might be personal taste, but I prefer to keep them empty (without empty
title inset) for blocks without title.


To keep layouts empty is rather uncommon elsewhere in LyX. So people 
might be used to it in their workflow. Maybe the default should be 
without keep empty and then people who like it differently can patch the 
module accordingly?

In principle, it seems that we could have multipar command layouts that 
act like environment layouts. It is conceptually easy, but adapting our 
code to this new possibility would probably be a nightmare.


I am not sure wy this has not been done from the start (like in 1995), 
but it was a mistake IMO.

Text Styles in beamer don't support MultiPar. But those commands

MultiPar 1

to the charstyle InsetLayout of those commands. But maybe MultiPar does
not really fit well to Text Styles? Then the commands should be moved to
Custom Insets? (I think I have not understood the difference between
Text Style and Inset sufficiently yet.)


Okay, I realized one problem with the with the MultiPar styles (and 
probably insets). If one selects a special layout, like itemize, the 
automatically inserted argument is inserted *after* the environment 
which leads to it being an "Overlay Specification" for the item rather 
than an "Action" argument for the Only, Alternative, etc. Text Style.


Not sure how to handle this.
