Insertar texto alrededor de figura

[Rafa GF]

  
  
Saludos.
  
  Acabo de instalar Lyx 2.0.7.1 en para Mac y llevo varias semanas
  usndolo sin problemas. Sin embargo tengo la necesidad de poder
  insertar texto alrededor de una imagen y que ambos queden parejos
  (no el texto y debajo la figura). He probado con la opcin de
  "figura envuelta" y con el paquete "wrapfing" y muchas otras cosas
  similares, pero sin resultado positivo. He mirado por la red en
  busca de alguna solucin al tema, pero no alcanzo a ninguna. 
  
  Alguien podra echarme una mano, por favor?
  
  La idea es poder colocar texto alrededor de imgenes, al estilo de
  otros procesadores de texto "normales" Aperentemente simple,
  pero que me tiene liado.
  Gracias.

Hola Rafa,

Intente con la sección 6.1 Flotantes envueltos en Ayuda  Objetos
Insertados. Hay un ejemplo que creo que funciona como usted quiere.

Unas sugerencias para hacer que sea más fácil para ayudarlo la próxima vez.
Cuando pones algo ambiguo como sin resultado positivo es difícil ayudar.
¿Qué es lo que no dio? ¿Hubo un error? ¿Cual fue?

Saludos,

Scott

new warning about missing cls file in LyX 2.0.7 annoying

[Paul Johnson]

Hey, developers. Can you make LyX look in the current working directory for
class files and turn off the warnings the pop up with LyX 2.0.7? Please?

For our doctoral students, I worked out a LyX example (LaTeX as well) and
it uses a custom class file. I have the cls file in the document directory.
Along with a biblio style and the document itself.  All was well until LyX
2.0.7

http://pj.freefaculty.org/guides/Computing-HOWTO/KU-thesis/

(I'd like advice on how to create a real LyX template that would conceal
the ERT in the LyX main document, but that's a different email I need to
write to you).

The PDF output passed the inspection of our administrators, and we have
started teaching students how to use this. So far, there have been 6
dissertations written with LyX at KU.

LyX 2.0.7 seems to have introduced a new warning that is driving the users
crazy. I had never seen it before this Saturday.  Maybe this is just in
Windows. Every time they open the LyX dissertation document, warnings pop
up over and over saying the kuthesis.cls file is not installed and they
cannot compile anything until they get it.

I say ignore those warnings, click OK 5 times, the document compiles, all
is well. But I'd rather not bother with the warnings.

I suppose you are thinking I should teach them LaTeX distribution
maintenance so they can install the cls file. I want to resist. It should
not be needed. Windows has made doing even the most basic user accountant
maintenance chores into a frustrating battle for users.  I don't think it
should be necessary, just make LyX take notice of the cls file in the
current working directory and move on.

Just to whine about Windows for a while, since I complain all the time
about it.  I spent Saturday afternoon installing LyX on student computers
and no two Windows systems behaved in the same way to the LyX install.  The
new installer works quite nicely, really, except for interaction with the
MikTeX package manager is still problematic.  It hangs the LyX process
completely on about 1/2 of the systems we tried. There can be a silent
failure of communication between LyX and MikTeX, I've never gotten to the
bottom of it.

I realize now the right thing is to just ask for help in preparing
instructions for MikTeX users. For people that have admin powers, here is
what to do. Maybe you double check me.

1. Find your MikTeX under c:\Program Files 

2. Find a subdirectory in there texmf\tex\latex. You might have to search
for it, but it is certainly under the main MikTeX folder

3. You could drop the kuthesis.cls file into that directory, but don't.
Please be tidy. Inside tex\latex, make a directory, call it whatever you
want. For example, we used misc or kuthesis.

But, wait, you are not done yet. MikTeX does not know about that file.

4. In the Start Menu, find the MikTeX settings (admin) program, there
should be a button on the first panel that says update FNDB, which will
have the same effect as texhash on Linux  mac systems. It indexes the
class  style files.  I found it difficult to describe to people how to
find this menu on Windows 8, so I said get a command box open as
administrator and run this at the prompt:

* initexmf --update-fndb*

The only tricky part there is getting the command box with admin powers. On
the start screen, type cmd and when it suggests a program, right click
the launcher, choose run as administrator.

5. Run Lyx, do Preferences - Reconfigure.  Hopefully, all is well after
you close LyX and re-start.

In my experience, this is the least error probe method, but it only works
for people who have admin powers to write in tex\latex.

We did not succeed on the system where the user could not be the
administrator. I realize there are documents that say a local Windows user
can set up a personalized LaTeX tree, but I've not seen it succeed with my
own eyes. We did try, adding a folder in the hidden AppData folder of the
user account

 1. Find your MikTeX under c:\Program Files 

 2. Find a subdirectory in there texmf\tex\latex. You might have to search
 for it, but it is certainly under the main MikTeX folder

 3. You could drop the kuthesis.cls file into that directory, but don't.
 Please be tidy. Inside tex\latex, make a directory, call it whatever you
 want. For example, we used misc or kuthesis.

 But, wait, you are not done yet. MikTeX does not know about that file.

 4. In the Start Menu, find the MikTeX settings (admin) program, there should
 be a button on the first panel that says update FNDB, which will have the
 same effect as texhash on Linux  mac systems. It indexes the class 
 style files.  I found it difficult to describe to people how to find this
 menu on Windows 8, so I said get a command box open as administrator and run
 this at the prompt:

 initexmf --update-fndb

 The only tricky part there is getting the command box with admin powers. On
 the start screen, type cmd and when it suggests a program, right click the
 launcher, choose run as administrator.

 5. Run Lyx, do Preferences - Reconfigure.  Hopefully, all is well after you
 close LyX and re-start.

 In my experience, this is the least error probe method, but it only works
 for people who have admin powers to write in tex\latex.

 We did not succeed on the system where the user could not be the
 administrator. I realize there are documents that say a local Windows user
 can set up a personalized LaTeX tree, but I've not seen it succeed with my
 own eyes. We did try, adding a folder in the hidden AppData folder of the
 user account

Insertar texto alrededor de figura

[Rafa GF]

  
  
Saludos.
  
  Acabo de instalar Lyx 2.0.7.1 en para Mac y llevo varias semanas
  usándolo sin problemas. Sin embargo tengo la necesidad de poder
  insertar texto alrededor de una imagen y que ambos queden parejos
  (no el texto y debajo la figura). He probado con la opción de
  "figura envuelta" y con el paquete "wrapfing" y muchas otras cosas
  similares, pero sin resultado positivo. He mirado por la red en
  busca de alguna solución al tema, pero no alcanzo a ninguna. 
  
  ¿Alguien podría echarme una mano, por favor?
  
  La idea es poder colocar texto alrededor de imágenes, al estilo de
  otros procesadores de texto "normales" Aperentemente simple,
  pero que me tiene liado.
  Gracias.

Re: Insertar texto alrededor de figura

[Scott Kostyshak]

Hola Rafa,

Intente con la sección "6.1 Flotantes envueltos" en Ayuda > Objetos
Insertados. Hay un ejemplo que creo que funciona como usted quiere.

Unas sugerencias para hacer que sea más fácil para ayudarlo la próxima vez.
Cuando pones algo ambiguo como "sin resultado positivo" es difícil ayudar.
¿Qué es lo que no dio? ¿Hubo un error? ¿Cual fue?

Saludos,

Scott

new warning about missing cls file in LyX 2.0.7 annoying

[Paul Johnson]

Hey, developers. Can you make LyX look in the current working directory for
class files and turn off the warnings the pop up with LyX 2.0.7? Please?

For our doctoral students, I worked out a LyX example (LaTeX as well) and
it uses a custom class file. I have the cls file in the document directory.
Along with a biblio style and the document itself.  All was well until LyX
2.0.7

http://pj.freefaculty.org/guides/Computing-HOWTO/KU-thesis/

(I'd like advice on how to create a real LyX template that would conceal
the ERT in the LyX main document, but that's a different email I need to
write to you).

The PDF output passed the inspection of our administrators, and we have
started teaching students how to use this. So far, there have been 6
dissertations written with LyX at KU.

LyX 2.0.7 seems to have introduced a new warning that is driving the users
crazy. I had never seen it before this Saturday.  Maybe this is just in
Windows. Every time they open the LyX dissertation document, warnings pop
up over and over saying the kuthesis.cls file is not installed and they
cannot compile anything until they get it.

I say ignore those warnings, click OK 5 times, the document compiles, all
is well. But I'd rather not bother with the warnings.

I suppose you are thinking I should teach them LaTeX distribution
maintenance so they can install the cls file. I want to resist. It should
not be needed. Windows has made doing even the most basic user accountant
maintenance chores into a frustrating battle for users.  I don't think it
should be necessary, just make LyX take notice of the cls file in the
current working directory and move on.

Just to whine about Windows for a while, since I complain all the time
about it.  I spent Saturday afternoon installing LyX on student computers
and no two Windows systems behaved in the same way to the LyX install.  The
new installer works quite nicely, really, except for interaction with the
MikTeX package manager is still problematic.  It hangs the LyX process
completely on about 1/2 of the systems we tried. There can be a silent
failure of communication between LyX and MikTeX, I've never gotten to the
bottom of it.

I realize now the right thing is to just ask for help in preparing
instructions for MikTeX users. For people that have admin powers, here is
what to do. Maybe you double check me.

1. Find your MikTeX under c:\Program Files 

2. Find a subdirectory in there texmf\tex\latex. You might have to search
for it, but it is certainly under the main MikTeX folder

3. You could drop the kuthesis.cls file into that directory, but don't.
Please be tidy. Inside tex\latex, make a directory, call it whatever you
want. For example, we used "misc" or "kuthesis".

But, wait, you are not done yet. MikTeX does not know about that file.

4. In the Start Menu, find the MikTeX settings (admin) program, there
should be a button on the first panel that says "update FNDB", which will
have the same effect as "texhash" on Linux & mac systems. It indexes the
class & style files.  I found it difficult to describe to people how to
find this menu on Windows 8, so I said get a command box open as
administrator and run this at the prompt:

*> initexmf --update-fndb*

The only tricky part there is getting the command box with admin powers. On
the start screen, type "cmd" and when it suggests a program, right click
the launcher, choose run as administrator.

5. Run Lyx, do Preferences -> Reconfigure.  Hopefully, all is well after
you close LyX and re-start.

In my experience, this is the least error probe method, but it only works
for people who have admin powers to write in tex\latex.

Can this be  related to http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/8864 ?

Is it an option to advise your students to downgrade LyX to 2.0.6,
assuming that that version behaves?

Also, please provide the exact warning messages that you get in each
of these pop-ups. There are a couple things that might be going on,
and without further info its difficult to understand what exactly is
happening.
