Known workaround: Ctrl+C of - some text inside the active window bring the speed back. - http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4045 - -- Cursor restoration problems with Multiple-View: - When using multiple Windows to edit different parts of the - same document, the cursor position is sometimes not correctly restored - when you switch from one view to the other. - -- RTL and keymaps: - Currently there is a bug where you can't use two non-RTL language keymaps if - the RTL preference is set (which is now the default). If you need to use two - non-RTL keymaps, for now you should just turn off the RTL preference (Tools -> - Preferences... -> Language settings -> Language, uncheck "Right-to-left - language support"). - We hope to offer more comprehensive support for multiple keymaps in the future, - which will solve this bug, as well as allow more than just two keymaps. If you - have any input on this issue, please chime in on the developers mailing list, - or add your comments to http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4051. - - -Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 1.5.x -------------------------------------------------------- - -Due to the change to Unicode, there are some general things you'll have to take care -about when upgrading from an older version to LyX 1.5.0 or newer. Please refer to the -file UPGRADING for details. - - -Note: There may later be an updated list of known issues online at - http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/ReleaseNotes - +The RELEASE-NOTES can be found in lib/RELEASE-NOTES.
