LyX allows space followed by guarded space

2002-10-06 Thread Darren Freeman
Dear list, I don't know if this is a bug or not, I'm new. It is possible, when converting a regular space to a guarded space, that you forget to remove the space. Result is space followed by guarded space. Easy to miss. Does this conflict with the WYSIWYM philosophy? Or is it legal to put all

Can't tell if a cross-reference is emphasised

2002-10-06 Thread Darren Freeman
Dear list, I like to put my figure references in bold, as in: Figure 3 But you can't tell if the cross reference itself is bold. I can imagine situations where you only notice days after publication that the number wasn't bold. Is this a missing feature? Have fun, Darren Freeman

xdvi very slow with images

2002-10-06 Thread Darren Freeman
Dear list, I know this isn't LyX specific, but does anyone know why xdvi is painfully slow when magnifying a page with an image anywhere on it? This happened with PNG and EPS figures. When I mean painfully slow I mean *EVEN SLOWER THAN ADOBE ACROBAT*... Now that's slow, especially on an Athlo

Cross reference defaults to wrong document

Dear list, I was working on a document, with the user guide open as the second document. When adding cross references to my document, the list of choices were from the user guide. After a while I realised you can click on "buffer" to change to my document. But as a new user, I was confused for

Dear list, I don't know if this feature is really missing or if I'm just not looking hard enough. I want to be able to select my default units to be cm rather than in. Currently I have to click on "in" every time I change a figure width. Have fun, Darren Freeman

Mouse wheel also closes environment menu

2002-10-06 Thread Darren Freeman
Dear list, As per my post about the mouse wheel closing open file dialogues, it also closes the environment menu. This is going to be a real off-putter as my instinct is to scroll with the wheel... So it takes several attempts to get it right, I can't just "not use the wheel" (feels kinds stu

Save from Word as TXT, import, get extra spaces

2002-10-06 Thread Darren Freeman
Dear list, I saved my Word DOC using Word 2000 (nooo!!!), as a TXT file. After importing into LyX, I found that there was an extra space at the end of each paragraph. Possibly due to the extra control code DOS uses with a newline. This just makes me want to go through the whole file and remov

Graphics: LyX and LaTeX scales have resolution of 1 %.

2002-10-06 Thread Rob Lahaye
Hi, The way the LyX and LaTeX scales are dealt with in the graphics code, implies that the scale variable is stored as an integer from 1 to 100. Fractional scales are not possible. Is that OK, or is it too restrictive? Should we allow scaling as "82.47 percent" ? I myself never needed such a pre
