Hi all,

There seems to be a change in how LyX is handling paths to images--I
haven't done the homework on tracking down if and when this was
introduced, but I was wondering whether it would be something that
could be undone?

Here is the problem. I would like to be able to refer to the following:

~/place/to/file/image.pdf

without LyX converting it to

/home/dirname/place/to/file/image.pdf

It didn't do this in the past, but seems to now. I don't think I've
changed anything in the configuration.

The reason I need paths to stay un-expanded on a per-user basis is
that I sometimes switch computers, and sometimes am co-authoring with
other people, so their home directories are obviously going to be
different. Is there any way to force LyX to not edit those paths?

I saw some discussion of relative paths on the list in the past, but
it wasn't resolved, as far as I could see.

Maria
