Hi,
I have this strange problem. A document which was previously working
cannot be compiled anymore because latex complains about "unbalanced
brackets or parentheses in a foot- or endnote". If I manually convert
to .tex and look at the resulting file, I find passages like this:
texttexttext.%
\footnote{Texinfootnote.%
}
First, I dont understand why lyx is putting the percentage signs there,
they are regular footnotes, not comments. Also, I thought they
are supposed to xcomment out the rest of the line, not what is enclosed
between two of them. However, they leave one bracket out, so I think
this is what produces my error.
That is perfectly OK code. The %s do exactly what you say, so there's
nothing unbalanced there (and nothing in that part of the LyX code has
changed recently). The problem is surely elsewhere. I'd suggest you try
bisecting: removing chunks until you get something that works, then
adding stuff back, etc.
