For me, it also works inside the float (1.3.6cvs). > And > opening/closing an inset goes much faster by a mouse click than by a > menu.

But anyway, this menu entry is no more in 1.4cvs. > What happens in LyX 1.4.x with the error boxes. I read they disappeard > there. But how is the error handling managed? An error dialog (see attached screenshot). And the context of the chosen error is marked in the text (which is currently broken btw). > Spellchecker: > As I remember LyX offers once the support for pspell. Is it gone? Why?

I think gnu aspell has superceeded ispell for a lot of languages now, but there might still be languages that are not supported well (or at all) by aspell. In any case, it is good to have the choice. > In the preferences I can choose between aspell, ispell and hspell. > But as personal dictionary I can only set an ispell one. Why? I think that (gnu) aspell does not use this option (it uses the personal dictionary ~/.aspell.<lang>.pws by default). This might as well count for other spellchecker options. Don't know.
