Mac Intel
OSX 10.5.2 Leopard
I am no longer able to use the DVI Viewer.
It and other items recently disappeared from my View menu.
The problem first appeared with LyX1.5.5svn.
I have just downloaded LyX-1.5.4-Mac-Universal.dmg and installed it.
One associated problem with both versions is that some Preferences-
>File format settings are deleted by Reconfigure, so maybe something
is missing. If so, I can't discover what it is. In particular, the
Document format and Vector graphics format boxes become unchecked by
Reconfigure.
When I select these boxes, DVI reappears in the View menu (which makes
sense).
However, when I select the DVI View menu item (which used to work), I
get the following error notification:
File does not exist
/tmp/lyx_tmpdir6064y7RjeL/lyx_tmpbuf0/My__postulates_.dvi
Exiting the restarting Lyx does not solve this problem.
The DVI File format settings are:
Format: dvi GUI name: DVI
Shortcut: D Extension: dvi
Viewer: open Editor:
This problem has arisen in an attempt to use psfrag which I have
successfully achieved for View->PDF (ps to pdf) with LyX1.5.5svn on a
Linux system.
In fact, I did have psfrag working OK with View->DVI on this Mac
system, but not for PDF.
Assistance will be greatly appreciated.
