LyX ⇒ PDF not showing on lyx screen anymore after 2.2.1 version
PDF not showing on lyx screen anymore after 2.2.1 version
I was using the 2.1.4 version until last week when I decided to upgrade to 2.2.1. I am using a macbook pro OS x El Capitan.
Until last week I could see all pdf files on lyx screen. I could never see eps format, but since that is a format I hardly use, it was not bothering me, but now I get the message "error converting to loadable format" for both eps and pdf. When I generate the pdf by command+r all images are shown just fine.
I tried to delete Lyx and install everything again with no results.
I found this article https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/FiguresInLyX, but I am not very familiar with command lines, also I tried to install ImageMagick's convert utility but damn! that thing is very complicated.
Does anyone know to solve this problem? I am writing a thesis, and that is very important to me!
Thank You
Paulo

PDF not showing on lyx screen anymore after 2.2.1 version
So, compiling to PDF works, just including images fails?
Can you post a log file, as attachment?
Furthermore, what did you check step by step in https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/FiguresInLyX, and what was the output then? Which version of ghostscript do you have? You can verify it at the command line (Mac
terminal
application) viags --version
