Re: [SLE] Lyx again

Suse 8.0 I remember having a similar problem inserting an image into Lyx and finding it had dissappeared the next time. I experimented by putting it into different directories and pointing Lyx to it. I was able to get different results with this. I also tried running Lyx from a console and doing xhost + localhost and then inserting the image. You may also like to check permissions of the inserted file. Maybe run Lyx as root, and insert the figure. If this works you can then go back and look for a reason it will not work as user.

In my Lyx version I can find Insert-->Figure that imports a PostScript file created by some other tool. I had already found that. What I could not find is how to rescale the figure so as it fits the space reserved to it on the document. In fact I have not been sucessful at inserting a figure so far. Lyx keeps generating error messages whenever I try.

Another question: for some reason (??) I now have the GNOME bottom menu superimposed to the KDE bottom menu. Of couse I can "hide the GNOME pannel" and use the KDE one that I'm more familiar with. However all my attempts to remove the GNOME pannel have failed so far. It is still there in form of a little handle ! I'm terribly concerned at using Yast2 and remove all what is tagged "*gnome*" ... I do not have time to recreate my working env=ironment now if I mess it up... Is there any way to eliminate the GNoOME pannel ?

Finally .. when is SuSE 8.1 going to be released and ready on stores shelves ? I saw a lot of discussion about SuSE 8.1 recently but did not have the time to read .. There seem to be a more updated KDE version than the one that comes with SuSE 8.0 installation kit .. Is it available from some web site ? Is it compatible with SuSE 8.0 ???

Thank you.

Can documents written through Lyx be recorded as or transformed into ".ps" or ".pdf" files ???

Yes and if you have the necessary tools already installed then from the menubar select View and you should have DVI PDF HTML options available

Thank you. FOund them !

By chance, do you know how and if it is possible to insert a simple picture into a Lyx-created document ?

From the menu Insert ->Graphics

Also Help -> Tutorial Use manual Customization documents are available

ps It is always better to send to the List as I have a very bad habit of using SpamAssassin
