LyX usage and Tricks

[A-Imam Al-Sammak]

Dear Neal

Neal:
* “Need space between Table and its title”: What title are you
mentioning here? Is that the caption? On screen or in PDF output?

A-Imam:

Neal
* “Line spacing in lists seems to be large”: again, is that in screen or
in the output? We exert as little control as possible on the design
choices of the classes we support. However, we try to show on screen a
faithful version of the output.


A-Imam:
I meant the output, but if it cannot be controlled, then it is acceptable.

 Neal
* “Therefore sign does not convert well”: what is the “therefore sign”?
  Is this a version of this ticket: https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/13083

A-Imam
I found an easier way: go to "Math mode" inside the placeholder >Insert >
"Special symbols" - select "therefore sign" and others are available.

Best regards.

A-Imam
