Hello all,

I have started writing my PhD thesis with LyX, and now that I really use
it, I have encontered a few problems. I'd like to know if there are some
possible workarounds known (I haven't found in the archive, and bugzilla
is not obious to query)

My config is Mandrake 8.2 i586, but I actually use the rpm from LyX
site. 1.1.6fix4 version

1- the brackett/parenthesis palette does not work.
I know in previous times, left clicking on [ would select [ as left
bracket, right clicking on } would select } as right bracket, but this
does not work for me. Actually I cannot have any parenthesis apart from
"()", the default one. I have tried to use \{ directly in the math
inset, it appears in red, but does not show in the output.

2- crashed lyx with this palette
When I pressed cancel on this palette (or close), LyX crashed

3- limits of integrals entered with "limits" are eaten when saved
I need some intergral limits to be under the integral, not as an index
(for the Green theorem)
This works if I type \iiint\limits_V and when I view the pdf, everything
is fine. Unfortunately, when I save, this is lost. If I reopen, I have
\iiint_V and this is not want I need
How can I force LyX to actually save the TeX code i entered.

Thanks for your help,

I hope the 1.2 will be soon here, LyX is really great. I have already
presented it to 2 collegues who have written their thesis with it, and
were satisfied (I never heard them shout, while LaTeX and Word users are
often when writing theirs).

Regards,

Olivier Ripoll.
