Broken links in Beamer files (from LyX 2.3.1 to LyX 2.4.1)

Postby MicGui » Thu Aug 29, 2024 12:41 am

Hello,
I'm a new user. Sorry if I missed a step before asking a question on this forum.

I've upgraded from LyX 2.3 to 2.4.1. I've just noticed a problem with my Beamer files.
I used hyperlinks to refer to demonstration details. By compiling the files with the new version of LyX, the hyperlinks created all lead to the first page instead of the desired pages (at the end of the document).
The link is described in a LaTeX box:
\hyperlink{Details 1}{\beamerbutton{Details}} and The corresponding label ("Details 1") is inserted in the linked page.

If you understand where the problem comes from and how to solve it, that would help me a lot.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello,
I've found the source of the problem and its solution.
The new version of LyX no longer supports spaces in hyperlink names.
Strangely, the previous version imposed no restrictions and treated what is probably an error in LaTeX as a minor one, corrected by LyX at compile time.
All I had to do was rename the link labels to correct the problem.
