Thanks Herbert,

it really works well. But only for my smallest files, then LaTeX runs
into some magic memory threshold, wherefore I can´t use this solution.
Do you know how to solve that ?:

Thanks for your hint, Herbert. I can set page geometry quite well with
that package. But the
results are the same as if i do it by hand: The multicol enironment
remains totally unaware of the extra space that it has, and the fancy
header behaves strange too.

So, does anyone have a concrete solution to changing page geometry
within the document in combination with the use of the multicol
environment ?

How do i change page sizes in the document ?

1999-11-25 Thread Martina Schwarz van Doorn

Dear LyXers,

can anyone tell me how change page sizes in a document ? In the main
part of my thesis, i want to use a wide margin because it is more
legible, but in the appendices, where i want to include my code in two
columns, i want to have small margins in order to save space. 

I tried something like:


\setlength{\textwidth}{140mm}
\setlength{\headwidth}{\textwidth}
\textheight=214mm
\oddsidemargin=8mm
\evensidemargin=8mm
\topmargin=2mm
\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1.3}

in the preamble (which seams to work allright), and then after \appendix
tried 

\setlength{\textwidth}{180mm}
\setlength{\headwidth}{\textwidth}
\textheight=214mm
\oddsidemargin=0mm
\evensidemargin=0mm
\topmargin=2mm
\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1}
\begin{multicols}{2}
\verbatiminput{main.f}
\end{multicols}

in TeX-mode, but this only messes up my headers and keeps the code as
messed up as without it.

Thanks 

Martina

Arrays of equations. Problem: sum is not produced correctly.

1999-11-25 Thread Martina Schwarz van Doorn

Dear lyx users and developers,

a few weeks before deadline, i have a problem with aligning formulas
that should also be enumerated.
In order to align the formulas, i tried to use array environment (second
from the right in the middle row of the math-panel). The outcome looked
real nice in LyX, but quite different in the generated postscript: the
sum-index does no longer appear underneath the sum-symbol (but like it
would in a normal text context).  

1. Does anyone know a solution to that ? 

2. And, how do i produce an eqnarray (witout typing LaTeX) under LyX ?

3. How do i include a multi-page PostScript image in my document ?

Thanks

Martina

Short Caption Text in TableOfFigures ? / incrementing the page-counter explicitly

1999-11-10 Thread Martina Schwarz van Doorn

Hello you all !

I'm busy writing the last bits of my thesis using LyX. So far, most
issues have been solved. I still have the following problems though:

1. In LaTeX I can use \caption[short]{long} to provide a short and a
long form of the caption, for the contents and the text respectively. Is
there an equivalent in LyX (beside LaTeX code)?

2. I want to add my source code in the appendix using the colour
printing of a2ps, I want to be able to reference to it though. Can I use
something like 

\setcounter{page}{\page+2}\label{main.f}
\setcounter{page}{\page+2}\label{init.f}

to do that ? 
How can I do it exactly ?

ThanX !

with cordial greetings

Hi,

in Extended.lyx I read about the possibility to create mini-pages using
a radio-button.
I didn't find it anywhere. Can somebody help to remove my blindness ?

I was actually trying to get two subfigures side-by-side within the same
float.

How to make inline comments in LyX ?

1999-10-31 Thread Martina Schwarz van Doorn

I like the way I can make comments in LyX, with the extra comment style.
But I would also really like 
to make inline comments that do not automatically create extra
paragraphs. I tried the
tex \begin{comment},\end{comment}, but that didn't work; often the first
few words after \end{comment} 
disappear too (the ones that appear on the same line in the
latex-export). I also tried the latex comment
character %-till-end-of-line, but that didn't work either for obvious
reasons.

Can any of you help me out on that? Will a future version of LyX contain
inline comments too ?

Thank you

Including source code (Java, Fortran & Perl) with coloring, mupltiple pages on one page, line numbering & referring.

1999-10-30 Thread Martina Schwarz van Doorn

Hello Jean-Marc, thanks for you quick and helpful replies. 

Could anyone help me on the following:

I have to add a whole lot of source codes (Java, Fortran and Perl) as
appendices to my Diploma Thesis.
I realy like the formatting that a2ps does, and I would like to have a
similar formatting
in my appendices too (coloring, multiple pages on one page,
line-numbering). 
I would also like to be able to refer to certain code fragments. Can
anyone help me on this ?

When I tried to include the a2ps output as an EPS. I noticed that all
pages got printed on the same page. 
Is there any way that I can print multi-page included EPS/PS on multiple
pages ? 

Thanks !!!

How do I get all my captions to use a smaller font and have larger margins than the rest of my text ?

1999-01-16 Thread Martina Schwarz van Doorn

I managed to do this in Lyx using the .lyx/layouts/ files, but this does
not result in changes to the generated postscript.

Now, I am a complete rookie when it comes to LaTex, so could anyone help
me on that?

Martina

P.S. the LyX/LaTeX output looks great. Better than any MS-Word document
I have ever seen.

Hello Jean-Marc,

Thanks for your answer.

JMarc>No, LaTeX code is the only way currently. Note that you can mark
only
JMarc>\caption and the brackets in LaTeX, and write the rest in normal
LyX.

Did you mean that I can write \caption[short] or \caption{short} in the
LyX floating figure? I didn't get that to work. 
Could you give me an example?

JMarc>You could try to split the code in several parts and insert labels

I think you understood quite well what I meant. But I don't want to go
about partitioning my code (with a result that the line numbers won't
fit
anymore).
This is how I solved my problem:

\newpage\label{AppFortran:main.f}.\addtocounter{page}{1}

I'm not so happy about the extra dot that I have to put in to get
correct references, but it works fine this way.
