Misplaced IME window in 2.4.0
Hello, LyX developers! I'm trying out LyX 2.4.0-rc3 (qt6) on KDE6+Wayland, and I'm using fcitx5 to input CJK characters. I found that the candidate window of the input method is always on the top left corner of the window, regardless of the cursor position. I think it's a regression since 2.3.7 does not have such problem. After looking into the source code, I found that the position hint (Qt::ImCursorRectangle) is only updated when preedit is enabled. Although enabling preedit eases the problem, the experience is still not very smooth. Specifically, when the position of the cursor is changed, for example by clicking, the position hint for the candidate window is not immediately updated, and thus the candidate window pops up in a wrong position. Only after some keystrokes triggering preedit event that the position of the candidate window is correctly updated. I'm not familiar with LyX codebase, but in my opinion, a better solution is to update the position hint for the input method every time the cursor position changes. I'm happy to provide more information to help fixing this. -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel

I have similar patch ( for all CMakeLists.txt) ready and only waiting for 2.4 to be out.

I see there is some very old bug related to osx budles, pehaps it should be closed? https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9018 > I only tested this with Qt6. Unf we are staying out of Qt6 for mac because of serious issues we were not able to solve (see bug https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/12641 ).

Scheduled maintenance of LyX servers (Mar 21, 2024)
Dear LyXers, we plan to do the major transition of our web infrastructure soon. Web and wiki were already moved to read-only mode, bug tracker (trac) will be probably inaccesible altogether, probably from Thu morning (all times in CET). The main switch is planned on Thu evening hours. The optimistic scenario is that we will finish by midnight. Git and mailling services should remain intact, you can keep the business as usual there. We tried to prepare things ahead, but it's impossible to know all the collateral damage until we pull the trigger. So expect evening outage and I would ask you to avoid unecessery interaction with the services from Thursday (commenting bugs, changing wiki etc) until I send further announcement. Things could be probably more smooth, but time is currently scarce resource both for me and JMarc. Fingers crossed :) Pavel -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel
Layout file format change proposal
Dear devs,
I don't know if this has been discussed before. Lyx uses it's own
format .layout (or .module), with it's own parser. However, the same
information can be easily saved stored in another format. I asked a
chatbot to convert "amsbook.layout" to an hypothetical "amsbook.yaml"

I think it looks pretty good. The advantages of using an industry standard are:
1. People already know the format. This could encourage publishers to
provide layouts.
2. Existing and solid tools for parsing can be used. Even if not
directly by LyX, someone manipulating layouts externally doesn't need
to reinvent the wheel.
Let me know what you think.
Lorenzo
