Fwd: ***SPAM*** How to start LyX in a maximized window
For now, you can try this freeware utility: http://www.southbaypc.com/AutoSizer/ . LyX is one of the applications I use it for. It may not be worth the effort for just one application, but if there are other stubborn apps that you use on an everyday basis, this utility works great.

Skaug [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: lyx-users@lists.lyx.org I am using LyX 1.4.1 under Windows. Is it possible to change the settings such that LyX comes up in a maximized window, rather than the semi-minimized window as it does now? (Of course, maximization is only a mouse click away, but still I would like to avoid this). Wait for 1.5.0... the feature is already there. Bo

Re: timestamp of lyx files not updated in windows xp
It appears that I am having the same issue, but I hadn't noticed before. It seems that the 'date modified' updates sometimes, but not every time that I make changes. It also appears that when I over-write an existing pdf, the date stays the same as the original as well. The 'accessed' dates are updated. Strange. I'm also using XP (Pro) and lyx 1.4.1. This could be a problem with back-ups. Cheers, John On 6/18/06, Paul A.

jurabib question
I'm having a difficult time getting jurabib set-up the way that I want. I
have it close, but there are still a couple of issues.
First, I have the 'titleformat=italic command in the preamble, but am still
not getting my titles italicized (in either the original references or the
bibliography). I thought that was the purpose of that command. I have the
oxford option enabled as well--is that the problem? Any ideas?
I also have the 'bibformat=ibidem' command set. It works well, but I am
getting duplicate authors listed with 'idem' and would like that replaced
with the standard '---'. The documentation seems to be saying that the dash
should be the default, so I'm not sure what I can do to fix it.
Finally, I'm can't seem to get the 'chicago' format command to work. This
isn't a huge deal since oxford is close enough, but I'd like to know what
I'm doing wrong. I've included the jurabib section from my preamble below
(it is just a modified version of the suggested format suggested in the
humanities section of the lyxwiki---so the credit lies there, and the blame
is mine.
\jurabibsetup{%
titleformat=italic%
titleformat=commasep,%
bibformat=ibidem,%
commabeforerest,%
ibidem=strict,%
citefull=first,%
lookat,%
oxford,%
pages=format,%
human=true,%
idem=strict%
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
