Re: No export menus LyX 2.1.3 on Ubuntu 15.04 Beta 2

2015-04-18 Thread Blaine Elswood
No. I have done all the current updates, and the only way I can get the
drop menus working is to change the language into any language and then
change it back again.  The drop menus then work fine until you shut down
LyX and the next time you open it up you have to do the same thing again.
(As easy helpfully pointed out to me.) When Ubuntu 15.04 is officially
released this Thursday and LyX users all over the world up grade their
Ubuntu systems, you will probably hear lots of cries for help with this
bug.

 Were you able to get the problem fixed? It is important for us to know

Yep. You're right. That's the bug. I try to keep LyX so I don't have to
deal with it often. But others won't. Hope they fix it! LyX and Ubuntu are
both awesome when they are compatible.

No export menus LyX 2.1.3 on Ubuntu 15.04 Beta 2

2015-04-10 Thread Blaine Elswood
I have recently updated my Ubuntu system to 15.04 and it upgraded my LyX
version to 2.1.3. However, the export to menu is now faded and there are
no menu items to update or view pdflatex.

I use LyX everyday to write a novel and desperately need to export to,
save, update, and view pdflatex files. These functions worked fine in LyX
before the upgrade to version 2.1.3. I have tried to reinstall both LyX and
TexLive packages to no avail.

Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated! (I consider LyX as
indispensable to my work product.)

Thank you in advance.

Trying to use Inupiaq (Eskimo) true type font in Lyx quotes.

2009-02-14 Thread elswood

I have an Inupiaq font installed on my Ubuntu 8.10 system.  I need to put
some Inupiaq quotes in my Lyx document.  How do I go about doing that?  I
install the full LiveTex.  Tried searching the forums and googling the
answer.  Is there so easy way to just insert this language font when using
words in it?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Lyx crashes in Hardy Heron

2008-06-23 Thread elswood
I have installed lyX 1.53 from the Ubuntu 8.4 repositories.  But it
frequently crashes when accessing lyx document files on my computer.  Is
this a bug that is fixed with lyX 1.55?  And how do I install it?  (It
isn't in the repositories.)  If someone could let me know how to proceed
I would be grateful.

Thanks!

Thanks, Paul.  I found that out yesterday, and under 
document-settings-Document class-drop down list there it was!  Appreciate 
the help from everyone on the list.  The reason why I love LyX is not just 
the typesetting beauty of it, but mostly the screen.  It is easy on old eyes!

 Just to be clear, are you talking about Memoir *class* or Memoir
 *template*.  The yes in the config dialog means that (a) LyX knows it
 has a Memoir layout and (b) it found the Memoir class file, so you
 should have book (Memoir) in the Document - Settings... - Document
 Class - Document class drop-down list.  AFAIK, though, there is no
 Memoir template (at least I don't have one installed), so if you're
 looking for it via File - New from template you're destined to be
 disappointed.
