I found out now that this is possible when I change the user interface file.

Is it really that simple? In that case, you should send a patch to lyx-devel.

I don't understand. Why a patch? LyX has just this feature and I described it in the docs now. (a very simple diff is attached)


The print function uses always dvips, right?

Well, I think it depends on the preferences. (Unfortunately, I cannot check it at the moment)

Ah I see it now, thanks.

What program is used in the menu Export->PDF? (I don't mean pdf(pdflatex) od pdf(dvipdfm) ;-) )

It should be "ps2pdf". Hmm, I thought this menu item has been renamed a long time ago... (maybe in LyX 1.4.0?)

Thanks for this info. I asked because this menu is broken in LyXWin 1.3.5. I ran LyX in debug mode but couldn't find out what happens.


The skip named "defskip" available in the menu Layout->Paragraph inserts a \medskip internally. So why is it listed separately?

Because "defskip" is short for "default skip", i.e. the default skip for the given document (see menu Layout/Documents)

This notation doesn't appear in the docs and I can't remember that I've see it before. But anyway it is confusing - when using defskip, I expect a different behaviour from medskip, because they are listed separately.
(The user can classify medskip as skip between small- and bigskip, but he can't imagine something about defskip.)
The dialog Layout/Documents also don't have a defskip for paragraph separation.


thanks and regards
