Recently, I decided to move all my child documents to subdirectories (2 levels deep) for better file management.
I have noticed what I think may be some bugs,
Firstly, updating the new child document location leaves the excluded flag inconsistent between the document and the include/exclude statement in the Document Settings. I need to remove and replace the child docs to make excluding child docs properly (usually twice!).
Secondly, LyX throws an error (for each child doc) when opening the master:
Thankfully, the error seems inconsequential as the document still renders fine.The document /full/path/to/Master.lyx does not yet exist.
Do you want to create a new document?
When saving the document, LyX throws another error and saves an emergency doc in the child documents' folders: Master.lyx.emergency
I have tried editing the child docs by hand to change the reference to the master into a relative path but this does not help, eg:
Code: Select all
\master Master.lyx
Code: Select all
\master ../../Master.lyx
