Hey guys!
I'm writing a report for 15 ECTS project at my university using LyX
that has to be formated so that if follows my institutions guidelines.
I managed to get most of it working properly, by using XeTeX for fonts
etc, but I cant figure out how to format the table of contents
properly.

Hi,
When I add Program Listing section (Insert -> Program Listing) and paste
source code from IDE or a text editor the EOL characters are removed.
For example:
usedArgument.setValue1();
usedArgument.getValue2();
becase:
usedArgument.setValue1(); usedArgument.getValue2();
Is it necessary to remo

(except "22:24:24.362" in the Progress/Debug messages below.)
Thanks,

Hey Rob, that sounds like quite a nice project you have in mind!
My two cents: it's not worth carrying it out if you can't get the math
to import somewhat well. That seems to be the biggest problem with
most ways of converting doc to lyx. I understand it'
IMHO it is unlikely that math-heavy documents are produced by anything

One thing you do not mention is handling figures. The documents I work
with tend to be very heavily illustrated, and I like LyX because it
handles figures so much better than Word that there is no co

I looked at the Qt bug tracker and didn't find anything that could explain

Thank you everyone for the comments so far. I really appreciate hearing from

IMO, you should concentrate on docx <-> lyx. One tool for one task.
If it turns out that parts can be reused for doc<->lyx later, fine.

My experience with OpenOffice and .docx isn't very good: I always had
