EPS figure not showing in output

2003-11-24 Thread Jeremy Buchmann

My guess is that you're using LyX for Mac. I think the paths to certain resources may assume you have the application bundle in /Applications. Is there any particular reason you'd like to move it? Todd On Nov 24, 2003, at 2:35 PM, Rich Shepard wrote: On Mon, 24 Nov 2003, Sean wrote: How do I

How do I get LyX to work in a directory besides /Applications/? Specifically, I want to stick it in a subdirectory /Applications/Productivity/. LyX, for some reason, has the path /Applications/ internally hard coded (you can check this with a hex editor - just search for the path). I can get it
