Instant preview in 1.5.0 under Win Vista

2007-05-18 Thread A S
Hi, I have just installed LyX 1.5.0 beta (from ftp://ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/lyx/pre), under Windows Vista, but instant preview does not behave as normal. If I start writing a new document, maths is shown with instant preview, but if I load a previously written document, the formulas don't change, e

Article class with theorems (layout file)

2007-05-31 Thread A S
Dear All, I am using the document class "article (AMS, sequential numbering)". This gives me a drop-down menu from which I can select environments Theorem, Corollary, Lemma, Proof, etc. However, I do not want to use the amsart document class but the normal class article and still have access to t

Problems with Instant Preview in 1.6.0

2008-11-13 Thread A S
Hi, Instant Preview doesn't work well for me with LyX 1.6.0. It only displays certain parts of the maths formulas. In contrast, LyX 1.5.3 never had a problem with this (although some earlier versions did, as well). Can this be fixed somehow? Howcome it works with 1.5.3 but not 1.6.0 running on the

AMS article and sequential numbering

2009-02-17 Thread A S
I've recently started using LyX 1.6.1 and discovered that my AMS article documents now all have sequential numbering of theorems and lemmas. In previous version one could choose between standard AMS article, and sequentially numbered, but now there is only one option. I searched the mail list archi

Lyx computer algebra system

Octave, Maple, Mathematica, and Macsyma. I was unable to find the phrase "computer algebra system" in the documentation. As an avid Octave user, I am curious to know how this feature of LyX can be used. A S Hodel http://homepage.mac.com/hodelas [EMAIL PROTECTED]

LyX on Mac OS X: key binding strangeness

2006-04-05 Thread A S Hodel
ialog. This occurs even if I use the menu to select LyX preferences. The only exception is my first use of LyX after a reinstall. Similarly, if I use CMD-Q, it pulls up the document settings dialog, even if I use the menu instead of the key binding. I am at a loss on how to repair this behavior. Yours, A S Hodel

I consistently use Math Mode; once I set up/learned the keyboard shortcuts to insert parenthesis and arrays, the speed of entry is comparable to directly typing math equations in LaTeX, which is far faster than a point-and-click approach. LyX-Code is definitely a poor option. Symbols for m
