Hello,
It's been a little while since I've used Lyx. I've just installed it
running Tiger 10.4.2. The first odd behavior I'm seeing is with the
Insert->Math->DisplayFormula.
Once I've issued the command, and get the red/blue box, I type the
letter d and the box goes the left corner of the page. If I type d
again, it returns to a standard display formula. If I type an f I
get an additional horizontal box. No matter what I type, I can't
type in a simple formula like x=y. It's as if Lyx is in some special
mode.
Now if I apply the following voodoo, I can input a formula:
Insert->Math->DisplayFormula, then put the cursor on any text outside
of the math display box followed by putting the cursor back into
the display box.
That seems to work.
I also get a similar behavior with the figure environment. After
inserting the environment, I can't type in the caption. If I click
outside the figure box and back in again, then I can type.
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Is there some default mode that
I'm missing?
Thanks,
Kevin
