To install this toolbar,
- Make
a backup copy of your “image folder
“…\lyx\share\lyx\images”
- Copy the included folder “images” into the
directory “…\lyx\share\lyx”.
Confirm overwrite for several images. - Copy the included folder “ui” into the
directory “…\lyx\share\lyx”.
Confirm directory overwrite. - Open LyX, select Edit ->
Preferences ->
Look and Feel ->
User Interface ->
User Interface File ->
Browse, select “..\lyx\share\lyx\ui\es.ui”.
If
you want to make other icons, open an icon file you want to modify with a
WordPad (not Notepad).
The xpm files are pure text files, the format is largely self-explanatory.
For changing the toolbar, edit the text file “..\lyx\share\lyx\ui\es.ui” with a word processor.
For restoring your old settings, restore the images and select the standard user interface default.ui.
