RE: [ANNOUNCE] LyX 2.0.1 Released
Thanks, but when I installed it on my Windows 7 machine, which already has
version 2.0, nothing happened! It is still the old version 2.0! Is this an
installer bug, or shall I install it in a different way?

Automatic math toolbar related
Hi, Firstly I placed the auto math toolbar on the bottom of my LyX window. I found that when I edit math on the last line of document, appearance/disappearance of auto math toolbar is noticeably slower than when I edit other part of the screen. I guess this is because LyX needs to adjust the screen so the last line is shown on the window. Whease when I edit other part of the document, auto math toolbar simply covers the last line of the document. I was wondering if there is any way to disable this auto appearance/disappearance behavior. I edit a document with a lot of math and I wish I can just have the toolbar on all the time. Thank you, Joon

"Use Non-TeX fonts" should not be necessary. Using XeTeX or LuaTeX output (also with tex fonts) should suppress these macros. If not, we have a bug (I did not test). Jürgen

Thanks Julien.
This was exactly what I thought of.
As I see the varioref package is used for this purpose.
I looked at its documentation and found that the package has starred
versions of vref and vpageref commands (vref*, vpageref*) which prevent
insertion of a space before the reference. It seems that currently the starred
commands can not be inserted through lyx, TeX code has to be used
(which is not a problem). But it could be a feature improvement if they
could be inserted through lyx as well in a future release.
Another issue is that one of my references says 'on this page' (in the last
line
of the page) but the table float is placed on the next page.
How can I correct this one?
One more question:
The varioref document says that the \reftextbefore etc. commands can be
redefined, but if babel is used it has to be done using babel mechanism.
It gives an example:
\addto\extrasngerman{%
\renewcommand\reftextfaceafter {auf der n\"achsten Seite}%
...
}
What would be the command for magyar (Hungarian) language?
How can I find it out?
Thanks again,
bcsikos

Most of those using LyX will use pdflatex to generate the final PDF. From what I hear DVI is most useful for quickly generating the preview.
