Helly LyXers,
some of you have already tested one of the development snapshot of LyX
1.5svn:
http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=5117&release_id=12083
Could anybody who has LyX 1.5svn still on the system and use Acrobat
8/Adobe reader 8 please test out the following:
1. Copy this file to LyX's \bin folder:
http://wiki.lyx.org/uploads/Windows/LyXWinInstaller/PDFViewWin.exe
and rename it to PDFViewWin8.exe
2. Start LyX
3. Open the User's Guide, go there to e.g. section 3 and add a charater
By the way, I noticed that when choosing the Introduction instead of the
User's Guide, the images were not found.
4. Press the toolbar button for viewing PDF
PDFViewWin8.exe crashed at this point. Same if I launch it as a standalone.
Adobe reader 8 should then be opened showing your file
5. delete the just added character and press the view PDF button again
Adobe reader should not crash and show the beginning of the file. In
Adobe reader you can now turn back to the last shown PDF document part
using the feature to go to the last view (via the corresponding button
or the menu).
Does this work as I described it?
thanks and regards
Uwe
Sorry for the bad news,
Best regards,
Olivier
