Bibliography reference and cross reference

[poete stephane]

Hi,

the work performed for the delivery of lyx 1.1.6 is just great, yet, I see two regressions for the time beeing :
 

1. the insertion of cross references between to files is now impossible, if one tries to follow the tutorial. If in file B, you want to insert a reference to file A, and follow the way it is explained in the tutorial, you switch from file B to file A, you choose the menu "insert cross reference", you select the reference, and when you try to come back to file B, the window where you selected the reference to add DISAPPEARS. This behaviour is teh one of the old "insert reference" way of inserting references in one file (1.1.5 fix 2)

1. the way the references to the bibliography is performed in lyx 1.1.6 makes it very tedious to set references to a document referenced in the bibliography, if the bibliography is defined in another file. I would like to have the same behaviour for inserting bibliography references as the one that used to be performed for the insertion of cross references.

Of course, there are ways to walk around the problems, by inserting the reference (bibliography or cross reference) in the file where it is defined, then cut and paste it in the file where you want it to appear. I did it, so believe me, there is no fun.
 

The behaviours I proposed should not be very hard to set in a next release of lyx, since they are very similar to behaviours that were present in the 1.1.5 fix 2 release.

Thanks.
