If you see the problem with LyX 2.3.0 or with 2.3.0rc2, then please do make a bug report.Īs for how to create a bug report, you have to register at and then go to 'New Ticket'.El Capitan downloads as a disk image. That's not to say you should not make a trac report, I just wanted to warn you before you spend time.įor the preferences dialog, we've fixed a few similar issues recently, but I'm not sure if this one is fixed. As for having LyX override system defaults, that is usually a difficult argument to win and I haven't seen anyone else mention this issue. Apparently, Lyx only saves a file if the user changes any settings.īob, thank you very much for taking the time to write up all of those details! I appreciate your efforts. Scott, if you think this is worth a bug notice, please provide a link to instructions of where and how to post the notice.īobCA wrote:I logged in as administrator and searched for the preferences file in the Lyx directories but did not find it. Given my experience, I think the design should override the color choice and I am willing to post a bug notice but I can see how reasonable people could disagree. Hi Stefan, and Herb, Yes, I am using MacOS X El Capitan and I was aware of the necessity to change the path for access to the binaries of MacTex by setting it to Library/TeX/texbin but I think it would be more convenient if TeXWorks could set this automatically, or at least ask the user whether he wants it to be set. Should Lyx override the system default background color with a choice of its own? I can see arguments on both sides. This second factor is a real bug and has to be fixed. The second factor is the loss of focus of the set preferences dialog box as noted in previous posts. I do not recall changing it in another program. The first was that Lyx accepted the default background color specified by the operating system, which is my case was a dark gray. So, my problem was a combination of two factors. I did look for the background color in the Lyx preferences and the default color was the usual cream color not the dark gray as it was in my user account. Apparently, Lyx only saves a file if the user changes any settings. I logged in as administrator and searched for the preferences file in the Lyx directories but did not find it. # modifications you should do them from inside LyX and save. I will login as the administrator later and try to find the preferences file and post here. This was after I changed the background color so the new color seems to appear below. User directory: ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-2.2/ Searching along the 'User directory' path with terminal: Perhaps links or instructions on how to post a 'trac ticket' and where to find the preferences file. OK but I have not done either of those so could use help. Most LyX developers use Linux, so unfortunately it's hard for us to make progress on Mac-specific issues. This update: Resolves an issue that may prevent settings from being saved in accounts with parental controls enabled.
