cut'n'paste of tables

1999-03-18 Thread Peter Suetterlin
HI! The cut'n'paste of whole tables is a bit broken: If I cut a table that has a special width defined for one of its columns, that information gets lost. If I cut a table that has a special option like "@{} l", that information gets inserted in the "width" field of the pasted table. LyX versi

Hi! Well, Amir's putting high pressure on the doc workers these days :-) So, here's the adapted version of beispiel_roh.lyx (german version of example_raw) using notes instead of real text. Also a small patch to beispiel_gelyxt (wrong paper size...) If someone could check it in, please... Pete

Hi, you may remember the messages about "wrong" sizes of the LyX window: Some people (including me) had problems when starting lyx with "-width x -height y" and the sizes reported by the window manager were wrong by 50 pixels. While this is still the case (at least for fvwm2), I noticed t
