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 +Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 1.6.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. +The support for Japanese has been improved in LyX 1.6.x. Due to encoding +reasons, Japanese documents that were edited with LyX 1.6.x cannot correctly +be converted to the format of LyX 1.5.x and thus not edited with LyX 1.5.x. +To be able to use LyX 1.6 with Japanese, the latest version of the LaTeX +distribution "platex" must be installed. +platex provides a Japanese variant of BibTeX named "jbibtex". When LyX is +configured, this variant is used. In case you have problems with BibTeX-files +that include Japanese or you need to use another BibTeX program, set it in LyX +preferences under Output->LaTeX->BibTeX command.
