Hello LyXers,
it it possible that we change the check box order in the float placement window from
- top - bottom - page - here
to
- here - top - bottom - page
This is more intuitive, because LaTeX uses always this order.
Then another issue I pointed out in one my previous emails: Can we revert the label prefix handling to the one used in LyX 1.2.x?
The current prefixes are: - "cha:" for chapters - "cap:" for any caption type In LyX 1.2.x it was: - "chap:" for chapters, because this is more intuitive - "fig:" for figure captions - "tab:" for table captipons - "alg:" for algorithm caption
Having different label prefixes for the different caption types is necessary for LyX's prettyref support (the option "Formatted reference" in the cross-reference dialog). Because prettyref uses the prefix for the reference format. And one would of course want to have different reference texts for figures and tables.
Different label prefixes would also improve the searching for references in large documents.
regards Uwe
