This is an interesting approach indeed. For my use case, an external template is more practical, though. -- Jürgen -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel

Thanks, this does not seem to be related to external material, AFAICS.
However, what would help me is a new placeholder, $$OrigAbsName, that
outputs the absolute path to the original filename (see attached). I
know that documenting this for 2.4 is too late, but would you be OK if
I submitted this as a hidden feature and document later?

Copy files to tmp
I am trying to set up a private external template for the inclusion of sound files to beamer slides. Could somebody please remind me what needs to be done to get those files (e.g., mp3's) copied to the tmp with their mangled file name?
