Hi.
How do I make LyX 1.4.6 for Windows XP display mathsymbols? \sum is
transformed into "P" in LyX but it looks alright in the ps/pdf files.
Thanks

The problem is that the FileFilter does not work. I thought it should filter
away all files except those ending in
.prov
but it does not. Can you help me spot the error? I use LyX 1.3.5 in Linux.

I'm using Linux and if I open two LyX documents, I can't copy and paste
between the two windows.
I can select text in other windows and paste it by a mouseclick in a LyX
window.
Why can't I copy/paste between the LyX windows?

Starting with a new LyXdocument didn't change a thing. Still no menues.

very familiar to debugging misbehaving programs in Windows, so any idea is a
good idea.

Hi.
I'm using the "hightlght" program to hightlight C++ code that I include in my

I wrote a c++ program that extracted my special c++ code environment. But I
ran in to problems with the exported LaTeX file (export from LyX 1.3.6, LyX

This is a more general kind of problem, how do you update a postscript file?
I have a LyX document that includes a figure (Insert->Graphics), it's an eps
file. It is shown in LyX. But when I preview the postscript, or export on the
command line afterwards: lyx -e pdf Prov.MaC.lyx I get the most strange

It seems to be related to the fact that pdflatex can't handle eps and

How can I tell LyX to do this for me?
