Re: How to forbid hyphenation in Section headings?
Hi everyone. I didn't get a response, but I did my own research on comp.text.tex and will report the results here. According to experienced tex'ers, there are two packages that should solve my problems: titlesec and secsty. These are both included in the Debian tetex-extra package. Unfortunately, because of other ERT that I've already inserted in my thesis, the inclusion of either one of these packages seems to cause more problems than they are likely to fix. As a quick and dirty solution, I inserted forced line breaks in the section headings that span more than one line. This eliminates the two problems that I cited: hyphenation in headings and headings that violate the right margin. Thanks. Syrus.

Hi, I am going to write my Phd thesis. But I can't find thesis layout in lyx distribution. Does anyone can provide me a thesis layout and style? Thanks in advance!

Fancy Tables
Any one knows how to make a table like this: +---+ | | Over titles 2 & 3 | |---| | title 1 | title 2 | title 3 | |---| | data| data | data | | data| data | data | | data| data | data | +---+ I have 2 lines of titles, in the first line there is a title over title 2 and 3; in other words, how can i join 2 cells of a table an have a result like this table.
Re: US-Keyboard + LyX + spanish
Esa es una forma de configurar el teclado en ingles para acentos y eñes que puedes automatizar aún mas, el archivo pav.map al que haces referencia ponlo en tu directorio HOME y llámalo .Xmodmap, asi se cargará automáticamente cada vez que uses Xwindows. Aún así existe una forma de configurar solamente a lyx para poder tipear acentos y eñes, y esto sin usar la "altgr" sino con los acentos tal como los usarias en un teclado en español: tecleando primero ' y luego la vocal en cuestión ; de una forma análoga funciona para la diéresis y la eñe ( la eñe tipeando primero ~ y luego la n ). Tienes que crear un archivo "espanol.kmap" y lo ubicas en $HOME/.lyx/kbd (o en $LYXHOME/share/lyx/kbd si eres root) que contenga lo siguiente (no usar la numeración es solo para referencia): 1: \kmod ' acute aeiouAEIOU 2: \kmod ~ tilde nN 3: \kmod ` umlaut uU 4: \kxmod acute i "\\'{\\i}" - En la linea 1 esta la definición para los acentos agudos (el único tipo de acento en español). - En la linea 2 el "acento" para la eñe, la tilde ~. - En la linea 3 la dieresis, que yo la configuré para la tecla ` pero se puede usar cualquier otra tecla ( " : etc ). Notese que estas lineas funcionan así: \kmod - La cuarta línea es para prevenir que se les punga el punto a las i acentuadas, no tengo la menor idea de como funciona. Luego de esto debes modificar el archivo $HOME/.lyx/lyxrc ( $LYXHOME/share/lyx/lyxrc si eres root ) para que incluya lo siguiente: \kbmap true \kbmap_primary espanol y eso es todo, la próxima vez que arranques lyx debes poder usar los acentos, eñes y diéresis sin tener que usar "altgr".
changing borders...
hi I have a big problem and I hope someone can help me..:-) What I need is an entire lyx document (my manual) with two "border set". I mean I want the first 10 pages (for example) with a textwidth (let's say 1inch) and the pages from 11 to the end of the document with a different textwidth (let's say 2inches). Now I use the geometry package and I set the \textwidth variable in the preamble, but how can I set the same variable in the middle of the document? Why do I need this? Why I want to use a big figure in my document and I want to use the page width. How can I solve this? I have tried to insert \textwidth=2cm (in centimeters) manually somewhere in the document with the Layout->texStyle but I get not change...why?

Re: latex paragraph export
Andre, Thanks for your reply. It finally occurred to me to look at the html source produced by latex2html (view source while displayed by browser) The header info contained a reference to a stylesheet. This turned out to be an external file with an extension of .css (cascading style sheets) that was generated by latex2html. I hunted around on the net and found specs for css files. Was able to solve the problem! For indented paragraphs with no line skips in html display generated by latex2html: P {text-indent: 2em} P {margin-top: 0em} add the above 2 commands to the filename.css file created automatically by latex2html Probably there is some style or other that would cause this to happen, but I can't find it or figure out how latex2html references it. How pdflatex figures it out is a mystery. tth blows up on me, so it may work fine; I don't know. My novel goes up tomorrow, worldwide (love the net), at: http://home.maine.rr.com/wetterau John
Re: highly irritating behaviour in LyX 1.1.3
Completely agree with Murali Atastya. Would be nice to have the old version with good ergonomy. Sorry to admit, but I must be a complete idiot. I do not understand how to fix the problem! Would be nice to have the patch in the ftp directory pub/lyx/devel (at ftp.lyx.org) The path is probably not needed at the site ftp.devel.lyx.org, because the people using that site are supposed to understand things without explanations.
