Yep, already reported here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.devel/115363/focus=115526 Contrarily to what I stated there, it also occurs on Linux. The second problem reported there, was due to the syntax highlighter problem and is now fixed. Your previous patch would work if only done once, something like this: static bool done = false; if (!done) { parMetrics(0, false); done = true; } would work, instead of unconditionally calling parMetrics() in the TextMetrics constructor. -- Enrico
