Hello,
besides the following two big showstoppers
1. LyX crashes as soon as I enter a character in math mode
2. LyX makes no line breaks if the cursor advances past the
screen borders
I noticed another few problems with tables:
1. If the table becomes larger than the screen (concerning
breadth), the whole table is shaken (it is printed
again and again, once more to the left of the screen, once
more to the right, and so on). In former versions,
this repainting was made about 5-10 times. In the current
version, the repainting does not stop at all! You need to
kill LyX (but even this is difficult, because LyX always
gets back the focus of the X system)
2. A good old friend (bug) has found its way back into the
tabular code: The selection of text does not work
in all cases, becauses the start position of a former
selection is kept. You need to move around and mark some
arbitrary text in order to get rid of the former selection.
3. For large tables (larger than one screen), invoking the
tabular dialog doesn't always work if you have selected
a cell somewhere at the bottom of the table.
4. Menu item "Edit->Tabular->Append Row" doesn't work if
the cursor is inside the red box of a table cell.
(Unfortunately, this is the case almost all the time :-))
Then I have some problems with mathed in an older version of LyX
(about 6 weeks old). Could you please check whether the following
bugs are still present? (I had to stop using the current cvs, because I
need to be productive)
1. Open a new document
Change to math mode (CTRL+m)
Insert "a_i" (a indexed by i) in the math mode
Enter "Cursor+Up" in order to get out of the "index box"
CRASH (happens all the times; workaround:: press space (2x))
2. Open a new document
Change to math mode
Insert "a_i"
Select the text and copy it several times (three times should
suffice)
Try to change the index i of one of the copies (not the last one)
---> Impossible to do that (cursor moves either to the
first or last index)
Kind regards, Michael
PS: Tables have become much faster! I am eager to use them again, soon.
