This patch is trivial, and you can apply it to your configure.py (do backup first) without recompiling LyX. Alternatively, you can simply add the following to your 'preferences' file. # FORMATS SECTION ## \format "eps" "eps" "EPS" "" "evince" "" "document,vector,menu=export" \format "pdf6" "pdf" "PDF (cropped)" "" "evince" "" "document,menu=export" # CONVERTERS SECTION ## \converter "dvi" "eps" "dvips -E -o $$o $$i" "" \converter "pdf2" "pdf6" "pdfcrop $$i $$o" "" I meant to include this info on the wiki, but never got around it. I do hope that this will be included in base LyX in the future.

Re: Space between lines at the same size shows differently
First, a comment: I'm not sure what you intend here, so I may be wrong, but I think you're doing things the hard way, using standard environments for things (titles, headings) when specialized environments for them exist. That said, the reason for the difference in spacing is that in the first block of text you entered each line in a separate paragraph, while in the second block you entered it all as one paragraph. If you redo the first block in a single paragraph, you will eliminate the extra spacing. Should you need line breaks in places they do not naturally occur, use Ctrl-Enter rather than Enter. Paul

You might check the ...\layouts folder under your home directory (on Win 7
that's usually something like C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\LyX2.0) and make
sure you don't have an old customized version that contains the errant
backslash.

Space between lines at the same size shows differently
Hello guys... I'm trying to stablish the same space between header and title on 1.5. And I don't know why the header looks bigger than title. I'm attaching the pdf and lyx in a .zip file for you to review. What am I doing wrong?

Theorem proof results in error
Hi all,
In LyX 2.0.2 (on Win7) I am using the module "Theorems (Numbered by Type)"
for lemmas, propositions, etc. However, the proof functionality results in
an error when compiling the document into a pdf file. It seems, from the
log file, that there is an error, as in the source there is the following
piece: "\ifx\proof\undefined\", note the backslash at the end. I've already
found that there has been a bug fix 6 months ago, see
http://www.lyx.org/trac/changeset/39217. The change in that file (removing
the backslash) also exists in the file on my pc
("..\Resources\layouts\theorems-proof-std.inc"), so it seems to me that the
fix is applied in version 2.0.2. The problem is that in the LaTeX source
created by LyX the error still exists. Do I have to activate this fix in
some way, or can I manually patch this error in some other file?

View other formats button
The time comes to compile a document. Perhaps something other than pdflatex is wanted. Clicking on the View-other-formats button produces a list of alternatives. Once another format has been chosen, the icon on the the button changes according to the format chosen. Fine, but now you might want to try another other-format. The button icon includes a little black downwards pointing triangle suggesting that the list of these other formats will be available if the cursor is positioned on the triangle. This doesn't happen. Is this a bug, or does the little black triangle have some other significance? Also, if I then go to the View menu and select another other-format that way, the View-other-formats button does not change with my new choice, as I would expect it to. Andrew
