 Yes. I have not tested (and unfortunately no time to do so), but I
 suppose we need to adjust this commit:
 http://www.lyx.org/trac/changeset/2eeed6cf/lyxgit



 Looking more closely, I suspect the reason is that InsetLayout:Caption
 does not have MultiPar explicitly disabled. Rather than that,
 LFUN_PARAGRAPH_BREAK is explicitly disabled in InsetCaption::getStatus.
 This looks like a forgotten bit in the InsetLayout-ification of the caption
 inset.


I verified my hypothesis and committed the respective fix at
http://www.lyx.org/trac/changeset/9d824a04d11c3223db26d2fe146e86e90a432a6e/lyxgit

This should also go to branch IMHO.

I've deleted a group-closing symbol because it seems to be
spurious, as in `$x}$'. But perhaps the } is legitimate and
you forgot something else, as in `\hbox{$x}'. In such cases
the way to recover is to insert both the forgotten and the
deleted material, e.g., by typing `I$}'.

Thanks for the MWE. I confirm that for LyX 2.1.0 the compilation
succeeds on tmp.lyx, but for 2.1.3 the compilation fails.

The diff between the LaTeX (pdflatex) produced by the two versions is below:

1c1
 %% LyX 2.1.0 created this file.  For more info, see http://www.lyx.org/.

This seems to be related to http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9421.
However that bug is fixed in master but I still cannot compile the

New version 2.1.3

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello

With the new version of lyx I get a compilation error
when I try to change the font size (eg small) in the caption of
a figure:


Runaway argument?
{{\small {}Enlargements of the absorption spectrum around the dissoci\ETC.
! Paragraph ended before \NR@gettitle was complete.
 
   \par 
l.2017 ...e of ${\rm \sim50\,ps}$).}{\small \par}}
  
I suspect you've forgotten a `}', causing me to apply this
control sequence to too much text. How can we recover?
My plan is to forget the whole thing and hope for the best.

! Extra }, or forgotten \endgroup.
 ...{\rm \sim 50\,ps}$).}{\small \par }}
  
l.2017 ...e of ${\rm \sim50\,ps}$).}{\small \par}}
  
I've deleted a group-closing symbol because it seems to be
spurious, as in `$x}$'. But perhaps the } is legitimate and
you forgot something else, as in `\hbox{$x}'. In such cases
the way to recover is to insert both the forgotten and the
deleted material, e.g., by typing `I$}'.

Hi Patrick,

Could you please send a minimal example
(http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/MinimalExample) ? Also, I know I'm picky but
for next time I find it helpful if there is a more descriptive title
(e.g. "File no longer compiles with 2.1.3").

Which LyX version were you using before? This can help us narrow down
the issue. If you're coming from 2.0.x, this might be a lyx2lyx bug.

Best,

Scott

Re: New version 2.1.3

Actually, it is due to the sub figure.

This is a very strange corner case. The reason why this fails to convert is
the empty paragraph at the end of the document. Remove it (in LyX 2.0.x),
and the plain frame imports correctly. Actually, this empty paragraph is
not supposed to be there. It should be removed by LyX automatically. Also,
this last frame has no proper frame end, so the document should not compile.

I have no idea why the empty paragraph makes the lyx2lyx conversion process
fail, but the case itself strikes me rather exotic.

In Your document, you can put the cursor to the BeginPlainFrame paragraph
and select Plain Frame from the style combo.

LyX: Saves edited version of document as a new version (new file) ?

[BOB Merhebi]

Hello fellow LyXers,

I wonder if LyX can save documents that have been edited as a new
(updated) version of the same file ? For instance, say I have a document
called newdoc.lyx  I am now editing it; I save the
changes/modifications i made  the file is saved as a new one called,
say, newdoc2.lyx

I am interested in this in case one would like to refer to an older
version of a document after changes have been made, or in case of a
mistake involving the modification  saving  quitting of a document,
hence the undo here would not be applicable; this hasn't yet happened to
me, but it happened to a friend of mine to whom I introduced LyX to.

If such a feature is not available I would like to suggest it for a
future version of LyX.

Configuration: LyX 1.6.5 under Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.


P.S.: Please reply to me personally, not just to the lyx mailing list.

I guess I don't understand.  Using Save As you can save it 
incrementally with any name you please.  I do this all the time.  But, 
if you want something automatic, you'd get a new filename every time you 
saved.  Are you sure you want that?  I often save a file I am working on 
several times, so that I don't lose too much if, say, the power goes 
out, or if the computer crashes, or if lyx itself crashes.  I would have 
half a dozen copies by the end of the day, and that would eat up a lot 
of space, and files would proliferate.


Maybe what you really want to enable is something on the order of 
version control, or change tracking.  Look under tools for that; maybe 
someone who uses it can provide suggestions.

Check the section 6.2 in the Help-additional functions in LyX,
it takes you through how to use the revision control.

It should fit your needs for undo etc, however, some knowledge of

Yes that's right, it keeps track of changes until someone accepts

Hello fellow LyXers,

I guess I don't understand.  Using "Save As" you can save it 
incrementally with any name you please.  I do this all the time.  But, 
if you want something automatic, you'd get a new filename every time you 
saved.  Are you sure you want that?  I often save a file I am working on 
several times, so that I don't lose too much if, say, the power goes 
out, or if the computer crashes, or if lyx itself crashes.  I would have 
half a dozen copies by the end of the day, and that would eat up a lot 
of space, and files would proliferate.


Maybe what you really want to enable is something on the order of 
version control, or change tracking.  Look under tools for that; maybe 
someone who uses it can provide suggestions.



P.S.: Please reply to me personally, not just to the lyx mailing list.

Generally, it is better form, when asking a question of a list, to join 
the list at least until your question is answered.

I think you are right in this regard

I believe this is a possible solution; all I need is being able to
revise the document for the latest if not all the editing that occurred,
particularly in the case that the "undo" feature is no more applicable
like when lyx is closed.

well I did join the list a year ago but until now I hadn't had any
particular question but still I followed the list till a few weeks ago
when I un-subscribed due to the large number of daily digests that

Check the section 6.2 in the Help->additional functions in LyX,
it takes you through how to use the revision control.

It should fit your needs for undo etc, however, some knowledge of
revisionsystems is helpful...

Use change tracking. It will change your life :)

that's what i just did :D will see how that goes; but from your
experience, does the tracking stay there even when i quite the document
& reopen it ?

Yes that's right, it keeps track of changes until someone "accepts" 
them. Also between sessions. And you get different colors for different 
authors, which is great when you pass the file around. It's built in.

New version question

[David L. Johnson]

Hi folks.  It has been a while since I have been on this list, but I 
thought I'd ask about something I noticed in the last upgrade I made.


I am currently using 2.0.0beta4, which came to me with my latest upgrade 
of debian testing.  I have been using both Lyx and debian testing for aeons.


Anyway, I notice a new behavior that is a little annoying.  When I use 
an empty delimiter in math-mode, previously the empty limit was marked 
with a dashed vertical line.  Now, it is a solid black line.  Since one 
of the common delimiters I use is \.{}\| (that is, empty on left, 
vertical line on the right) the difference between that and vertical 
lines left and right requires more judgment than my eyes can handle. 
With math text being dark blue by default, there is not much difference 
between a vertical line and an empty delimiter.

I would compare what you have installed between machines for 'texlive' as a

Dear Lyx users,

Retaining old file structure when editing in new version?

[David Russell]

One of the reasons I'm going for LyX is the greater cross-compatbility
between my Windows desktop and Linux laptop. However the newest versions
available for each system are different - 1.6.1 on Windows and 1.4.3 on the
EeePC. Perhaps unsurprisingly, a file saved in 1.6.1 won't open in 1.4.3.

Is it possible for me to make version 1.6.1 save in a way which retains
compatibility with the older version?

Thanks

David Russell

Re: Retaining old file structure when editing in new version?

[Siegfried Meunier-Guttin-Cluzel]

Try
File  Export  Lyx 1.4.x

Hope it helps
Siegfried

EeePC's OS is Linux so it should be possible to install the latest LyX on an 
EeePC.

Yes, save you file in LyX in the format of LyX 1.4.x via the Export menu.

Hi,

I have been using the previous version of LyX (1.3.6) up until recently when
LyX 1.4.4 was installed.  I am running into some issues that I did not have
before when getting a PDF (or any other type of file) from the source.  The
document is made up of a master document and chapter documents included in
the master.  I have been using particular layouts that meet my thesis
requirements.

The problem is that the resulting PDF does not perform page breaks properly.
The pages continue to be written all the way to the bottom and some text is
lost.  I have tried to adjust the document settings margins (the bottom
field) to no effect.  When I adjust the size of the page it only prints the
complete pages to PDF when I make the height of the page 350 mm which is not
solution to my problem.

If anyone has run into the same problem or has any ideas on how it can be
resolved, please let me know.


I haven't seen this, but then I never write anything long enough to 
require a master document and separate chapter documents.  (My thesis 
predated word processing ... and typewriters ... and the ball-point pen 
...)  That said, I'm wondering if something in the preamble of one of 
the chapters, or in the layout of a chapter (if the chapter uses a 
different document class/layout than the main document) is screwing 
things up.


Can you make the problem go away by omitting one particular chapter?  If 
so, I would look at its preamble.


If not, can you pare the document down to a small version that exhibits 
the problem and post that here?  Maybe one of us can poke at it until it 
confesses its sins.

Thanks for your reply Paul.  I actually had some assistance from a fellow

was using the a4package and for some reason it functions differently than it

I am not sure what the issue with the a4package is but I will continue to
work with this manual approach for now.

http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=5117release_id=9016

you find a new LyX installer for Windows version 1.1 that still comes with
LyX 1.3.7 but with many changes behind the scenes and some bug fixes.

To learn more about the LyX installer for Windows, have a look at

http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinInstaller

This will definetively be the last installer version for LyX 1.3.7.
You don't need to update to this new installer as long as you didn't have
problems with older installer versions.
An update is recommended for french users (or when you want to have an 
actual version of ImageMagick or if you want to test out if the 
installer correctly recognizes installed text editors).


Here's the changelog:

- updated dutch translation (thanks to Edwin Leuven)
- updated danish translation (thanks to Martin A. Hansen)
- fix bug that a french LyX-file containing scaled images cannot be
  viewed/exported
- correct encoding in LyX's polish menus
- correct wrong (therefore untranslatable) menu entry (Insert - 
Citation...)

- support for the following programs to view LaTeX-files with syntax
  highlighting: jEdit, PSPad, WinShell, ConTEXT, Crimson Editor, Vim,
TeXnicCenter, LaTeXEditor, WinEdt, LEd, WinTeX
- updated to ImageMagick 6.2.6
- fixed example LyX-file of the beamer presentation LaTeX-class
- fixed math font cmsy10.ttf
--

The installer now uses the latest version of ImageMagick which fixes 
possible memory

leaks in various image libraries discovered in the last year.

The installer has now built in support for viewers of LaTeX-files (menu 
View - LaTeX).

If no viewer from the list in the changelog is found, Window's notepad
is used as viewer.

best regards
Uwe
