No problem, Carsten. You can either email the list directly (to:) or
put it in CC. It is optional to CC the other persons in the
conversation. I usually do that when I suspect they're not on the
list.

OK try the uninstall/reinstall. That's usually the advice I see Uwe
give (the main developer of the LyX installer for Windows).

Best,

Scott

Please respond to the list.

Did you have MikTeX installed before? I believe the usual suggestion
is to uninstall everything (and any preexisting TeX install) and try
again.

Best,

Hi Cee Van,

This is because LyX is not finding your LaTeX installation, which can
occur because a LaTeX installation does not exist or because, for
example, there are PATH issues. Please explain exactly how you
installed LyX, what your OS is, and any other relevant details.

Best,

When you make the outliner module, please keep in mind that if an
outline is not lightning fast for the touch-typist, it's worse than
useless, because the author forgets the point he was trying to make
while reaching for the mouse or typing an arcane and difficult key
combination. An outliner must be faster than the author's thought
processes, and must take zero thought to operate. Otherwise, it gets in
the way.

I'm the originator of VimOutliner, and if anyone has any questions
about outlines, I'll be glad to share what I've learned.

Thanks,

Marcelo,

  The same way you'd put on outside a float: Insert -> Box -> Frameless ...
etc.

Also, the above reference says:
The packages threeparttable and ctable packages provide proper table notes...

But how do I use threeparttable with lyx?

It works, but there's too much space from the bottom edge of the table to the
footnote (and following caption).  Any suggestion?  Without the footnote, the
caption is tight to the bottom of the table

This feature is of great interest o me as well, I am waiting for it for
quite a while and have tried to check the progress of the GSOC project and
any eventual follow up, but have not found any info after the (abortive?)
GSOC project.

I also could not find it in the road map. Richard, could you point me to a
page where I can find out about the current status? Also, a guesstimate as
to when 2.2 would be very helpful. Thanks a lot.
