I am trying to get LyX to work with pdfscreen. My focus is on simply displaying PDF versions of existing LyX articles with all the pdfscreen bells and whistles (colour, Navigation panel, background images, etc) rather than on specifically slide related features.
By eliminating all images from the sample documents and also eliminating all \overlay{....} statements, I have got Lyx working with Dekel's sample files and I can modify documents and redisplay them OK. I am not concerned about this yet. It is probably because the image files do not have .ps versions. I will experiment with this later. When I try the View PDF option, there is a series of (apparently harmless error messages: step: Counter does not exist: lyxnewslide step: Counter does not exist: lyxnewslidex Again I am not concerned about this. (I have not used the slide option in the LyX file ) Now a question. The exported .tex file has a document class of article. The LyX document class pulldown shows only the option: slides(pdfscreen) I had rather expected to see article(pdfscreen). Is this the expected behaviour? If not, what should I do. John O'Gorman
