Test, whether this "ø" in your source is really
00F8LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH STROKE
or some other similar looking symbol which may be missing in the text font
used for the instant preview.

Python uses "#" as comment separator, // is used by C++ and several other

Speaker's notes for beamer presentation
I've read the LyX beamer-specific manual and the beamer user guide (v3.44) about \note and I'm not sure it will do what I want. I've a vague recollection from years ago that I was able to print pages that had the slides on one column and my speaker notes for each slide in the adjacent column. In a couple of weeks I'll be presenting to a large group. The PDF of the beamer class document will be on a USB flash drive attached to the session's computer. I want my notes on paper. Can I do this within the beamer document or do I do this as a separate document? Rich

I can confirm this sign appear in LyX documents with classes other than beamer. I have thought that this has something to do with the encoding of "end of paragraph" character and maybe related to Windows. Not sure. Would like to hear the actual meaning.

I suppose that years ago I prepared a beamer document that had that preference box checked and the paragraph ending symbol just hung around in the new presentations. I've seen applications that offer a symbol for paragraph endings, but have not understood their benefit. Paragraphs I write, in all text applications, are either separated by a blank line or are indented. That's sufficient visual cues for me. :-) Best regards, Rich

Beamer class frame title symbol
I've copied an older beamer document to a new name to keep the framework and change the content. It's the way my presentations maintain a consistent appearance. On existing frame titles there is a cute, curly-tailed arrow at the end, outside the title frame text (see attached image). Newly created frames lack this decoration. Is it an anachronism? Does/did it have a meaning? Just curious. Rich

UI-customization: No "bookmark-save" in "context-toc-tableofcontents"?
Hello! I am trying to customize the user interface to allow easily viewing different parts of the same document, without changing the cursor position in the current view. I have already overridden menu-entries for "New Window" and "Split Vertically" by surrounding the usual command with ``bookmark-save 9`` and ``bookmark-goto 9``, such that new split views or new windows are opened at the current cursor position. I was trying to the the same with the Outline pane, but I have found that for the context-menu `` Menu "context-toc-tableofcontents" `` the command ``bookmark-save`` is disabled. Is anyone aware of a workaround for this? regards, Klaus
