LyX 2.4.0 & Jupyter Notebooks

[Bernt Lie]

Hm… It is possible there is some “crap” in my file. If I take a fresh LyX 2.4.0 file and insert “\hat{H}”, then the alignment seems to work.

Also, in a fresh file, Ctrl+R seems to work.

I do worry how I can import my 1000 page lecture notes, though…

LyX 2.4.0 RC4... some immediate questions/bug:



* In LyX 2.3.7, shortcut Ctrl+R always generated a PDF file with preview in my chosen Acrobat Reader program.



* When I open a file from LyX 2.3.7 in LyX 2.4.0, Ctrl+R doesn't work. If I open a help file in 2.4.0, Ctrl+R produces the expected PDF file, but this does not happen in the file imported from 2.3.7.

There is a problem with math. A similar problem started to show up on LyX 2.3.7, and has not really been fixed. The following screen shot illustrates the problem:

Observe that:

  *   “\rho” is slightly too low when I go out of the math box.
  *   “\hat{H}” is *way to low* when I get out of the math box.



I use Windows 11 64 bit, and updated to the latest version today. Computer: HP Dragonfly 12 generation intel, 13.5 inch screen, resolution 1920*1080.



BR,

Bernt

I have been using the master branch for regular work for well over a year. My recent book



    https://academic.oup.com/book/56184



was produced using it. I.e., the book was printed from a PDF I provided to OUP. So it's entirely usable.

That may depend upon your OS, but someone else should be able to say.

The one thing you have to do is keep the user directories separate.

Again, that will depend upon your OS.

The background TeX installation should not matter. They all have the same bits. (TeXLive, though, is an alternative to MikTeX.)
