Dear Jean-Marc, dear Angus,
I finally managed to create a new binary for LyX 1.3.6 on Windows - linking against a static version of the Qt library solved all my time and memory problems! I must say that you and the Qt guys have done a great job recently. Many of the former problems (graphics preview failed; drawing problems; increasing CPU usage, etc.) have been resolved. Thank you very much!
However, the "spaces-in-paths" problems has only been fixed partially. In particular, it is still not possible to include any graphics with such a path. LyX refuses to accept the file in the graphics dialog. IMHO this strong restriction should be resolved for the 1.3.6 release.
Kind regards, Michael
Indeed. And I've also had problems with
\includegraphics[%
width=7cm]{C:/DOCUME~1/Angus/LOCALS~1/Temp/lyx_tmpdir1872a03448/lyx_tmpbuf0/J__MinSYS_home_Angus_trial_tex_subdir_figure1}1.3.x insists on using the full path to a file in the temporary directory. If this directory contains '~', as it does here, then all hell breaks loose.
I've tried enclosing the filename in " quotes. No good. I've tried escaping the ~ with \~ but that was also no good. I've searched the internet to no avail. I guess that I need some help from a LaTeX guru.
Angus
ps Incidentally, Michael, does "-quoting your path with spaces cure that problem for you?
A.
