Could you propose a concrete layout? I'm not sure what to do.

I just did that.

I tend to agree with that.

Yes, but where?

Agreed.

Rob, are you reading this?

I don't like few things in the new menu:

1. The File->Insert should be removed, and its items moved to the Insert menu
(maybe putting the items "LyX Document", "Ascii as lines" and "Ascii as
paragraphs" in a submenu.

2. Perhaps the menu item "Insert->Math panel" should be moved to different
menu.

3. The navigate->error and navigate->note should appear after the TOC
or moved to a different menu (the reason for this is that they add two
key-presses when you use the select an item from the TOC with the keyboard).

I think they are pretty stable now.

There have not been many changes yet beyond Angus' work (which is
substantial, however!), so you might want to wait a bit longer before
reading too much. I definitely need to cull through the User Guide for the
obvious menu changes first.

One question: is the user interface (e.g. location of items on the
pulldown menus, etc.) likely to be stable now, or will there be more
changes in the relatively near future? This will affect my enthusiasm to
do the changes sooner rather than later.

Doc updates for 1.1.6

2000-11-28 Thread mike . ressler

Greetings,

I have followed Lars' instructions and created a branch off of the lyxdoc
CVS module called lyxdoc-1_1_5-updates. Any changes relevant to
LyX-1.1.5fixN should go there and should be edited only with
lyx-1.1.5fixN! The main branch of lyxdoc is being changed to be relevant
to 1.1.6 and should be edited only with 1.1.6pre2 or later.

I have patched in Angus' modifications of Customization and UserGuide and
added an appropriate caveat to UserGuide about the updating process. I
have also appended the infamous ExternalMaterial.lyx to Customization as
Chapter 8. I will work it into the text more properly as time
permits. Correspondingly, lyx-devel/lib/doc/ExternalMaterial.lyx should be
nuked.

It was a productive lunch break today ...
