Yes, I saw that this was a problem before when I was doing searches for a solution to it. Apparently this bug is back, at least for me. I've tried everything from a user standpoint that I can think of to correct this problem. Removed all prior settings for lyx, qt, and kde. Did a completely clean install of LyX after compiling it myself. All without any luck. So, where do I go from here? I know almost nothing about c++ so there's no chance I will be able to find this bug and fix it myself. And as it is, I can't use LyX right now to do what I need to do because of this problem.
