Hi,
I've stumbled upon an issue with LyX 2.0.5.1
<http://2.0.5.1>: using enumitem in an included file inside
another does not appear to work.
For example, take the enumitem-example.lyx file from here:
http://wiki.lyx.org/Tips/Enumitem, and include it in another
file of the same class, with the enumitem module loaded.
When compiled on its own, enumitem-example.lyx creates the
PDF without a problem. When this file is included in another
LyX file (also of class "article", with the enumitem module
loaded), a bunch of LaTeX errors occur:
"Missing \endcsname inserted.
Extra \endcsname."
I haven't seen anything similar on the web about this -- is
there a workaround/fix to this issue? Or am I doing
something wrong?
You have to load the enumitem module in the master document.
If it's only in the child, the master does not see it.

I created a new master file to test this -- in it, I added the
enumitem module. I then included in that master file the child
document. As soon as I removed the enumitem module from the
child, LyX gave me four "Layout not found" errors, specifically
relating to the enumitem-resume layout. The PDF then builds, but
(a) includes a page break before the child document, and (b) does
not actually use any of the enumitem features, i.e. the lists are
stock-standard.
Sorry, I should have been more explicit: You need to load the
module in the master AND the child. Modules do not get inherited
by children. There is a reason for this (the fact that what is a
child can also be used not as a child), although I agree that it
is counter-intuitive.

Sorry, I actually got what you meant some time after I sent that
reply. Indeed, I remember LyX throwing an error when I tried to load a
module child in a no-module parent. I also now see that the files I
attached were wrong. Sigh -- sorry about that!
What I should have stated more clearly is that what you say (module in
parent and child) is what I tried initially when I got the
"Missing \endcsname inserted.
Extra \endcsname."
If you have a look at the files I've attached now, does it build for
you, or do you also get the "endcsname" error?
OK, so I have finally found the bug. The problem is that we are
outputting this code:
Itemize, Enumeration, and Description lists may have an optional arguments.
If the optional argument contains special characters (e.g. the backslash),
put it in an ERT box.
\begin{enumerate}[\selectlanguage{british}%
labelindent=\parindent,leftmargin=*,label=\Roman*.,widest=IV,align=left
\selectlanguage{english}%
]
\item An enumeration
\item with left-aligned roman
\item numbering
\item 1of items.
\end{enumerate}
Note the language change. This would appear to be because the two files
use different languages. We obviously should not be outputting that in
this case.
Can you file a bug about this?
Richard
