Re: Accessing 2.0.0beta2 .lyx file with 1.6.8 fails

No. LyX 2.0 files can't be opened with 1.6.x versions. Except for the last 1.6.x release which is released right after the official release of LyX2.0.0. For now, use File-Export-LyX 1.6.x to save your file in the LyX 1.6 file format. Then you can open the file with LyX 1.6.8. Vincent

Re: marginal note: line break font size?
is it possible to change the font size of marginal notes
I use the following code in my preamble so I can use a smaller font,
sans serif to distinguish it further from the main body of text and
ragged right because I think a very narrow column can look odd
justified. In this case it was blue too.
\let\oldmarginpar\marginpar
\renewcommand\marginpar[1]
{\-\oldmarginpar[\color{blue}\sffamily\raggedleft\scriptsize #1]%
{\color{blue}\sffamily\raggedright\scriptsize #1}}
built in font sizes
\tiny
\scriptsize

Thanks a lot. It works pretty well.
Does anyone has any idea how to tackle the line break problem, since the
margins are not too wide (using article (KOMA))?

Background Color
Hello everyone, I'm making a formula sheet with 3 columns (and a vertical line between the columns), and would like to give the headings a solid background color so that they will be easier to find. Is there any way to do so? Thanks, and a happy new year, Barak
