Hi,
I wish to produce a multi-choice test paper using LyX1.3.5 whereby a
subset of questions are chosen from a pool of questions in the LyX file.
What I need is a straightforward method of excluding questions from a
particular version of the test but leave them in the file for future use.
I've found that I can omit a question by selecting it with the mouse and
then clicking Insert->Note in the menu bar. The question will no longer
appear in the output file as it is now a LyX note. The problem is that I
can't seem to reverse the process so the question is available again for
later. Does anyone have a solution
The long term solution is lyx 1.4, where you do this with
branch insets. (Any branch can be turned on or off
whenever you want to.)
The short term solution for undoing a note is cut&paste:
1. Mark everything inside the note
2. Cut the stuff
3. Move the cursor outside the now empty note
4. Paste the stuff back into the document again, this time outside the note
5. Remove the empty note if you wish
