Re: editing problems with 1.6 and mac 10.4 intel
I am using LyX 1.6.0 on OS X 10.5 and I can confirm the behavior of the Shift-key problem. If I use the Shift key plus the left and right arrows, no text is selected, and the arrows simply move left and right as though Shift were not being held down (same behavior for both left and right Shift keys). However, using the Shift key with the up and down arrows works fine. This issue is not present in 1.5.6 or 1.5.7.

Do you have some configuration files (especially *.ui and *.bind files) from a previous version installed in your user directory? If so, try if removing them helps. Jürgen

A radical cure to fix all problems is to delete ALL Lyx-folders (such as LyX, LyX-1.5, LyX-1.6, ...) in /Users/yourusername/Library/Application Support (or better: move them to some other directory) and run the LyX-Installer from the dmg again.

Yes, it is a new feature, Autocompletion. You can turn it off in the Preferences. i'm running LyX on a mac 10.4 intel. previous versions of LyX worked great and didn't have these odd editing problems. the .bind document hasn't changed with the upgrade. And that is exactly the problem. The installer is not able to do migrate the old bind file to the new format. Trash the old one, and define your key-bindings again, this time in the GUI (in Preferences). There are some small limitations currently in the Shortcuts-GUI, if you should run into them, search the LyX archive for solutions. Hope this helps, Konrad

Re: editing problems with 1.6 and mac 10.4 intel
It turns out the issue was, as mentioned, related to a bind file - I was able to restore functionality by going to LyX Preferences Shortcuts and changing the Bind File field from what it was to mac.bind. However, if I simply deleted or moved my old bind file, it didn't fix the problem. When the bind file is empty, or when no bind file is specified, it makes the functionality of the Shift key even worse (i.e. Shift + page down/up, Shift + home/end, etc., which all worked before for me, stop working).
