Writing paper for a SAGE journal
Has anyone written a paper for a SAGE journal? There is a TeX-template and a .cls file available on the sagepub website. Has anyone managed to use these for writing the paper in LyX? /Anders -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
Beta2 on Mac OS X 13.2
Trying to install Beta2 on Mac OSX 13.2 on my iMac, but after going through the usual hassle with allowing open in System settings, the program does not load. It displays “LyX24b2.app” can’t be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software. And when clicking Open it just closes. I get the same for both qt5 and qt6 versions. Have tried to spot error in console, but can’t see anything. On my MacBook Pro it works fine (as does the alpha3). Python 3 installed through Anaconda on both. Only difference I can see is that the Python detected is python3 -tt on Pro, but python -tt on iMac. /Anders -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

More digging shows it to be a problem in reconfiguration. Did a reconfiguration from the Terminal. Now it opens, but wants to reconfigure, but fails.

Bit after installing from python.org and reinstalling Anaconda twice it now works as it should. Unfortunately I am not quite sure what was wrong. There were a Terminal message that I did not use the default shell that perhaps could be related. But I am not really sure.

Watermark
How do you include a watermark in LyX. It can be done in the preamble, but I think I used a module option or similar before, but can’t see it in 2.4RC1. /Anders -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

The problem is "Go to "Insert" and select "Formatting" from the drop-down menu Click on “Watermark”" There is no Watermark item under Formatting… Anders -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
