accents in math
I still use the 1.04 lyx version.
I just notice that accents inserted in math mode like this (lyx source
file)
left\{ \begin{array}{c}
\overrightarrow{R}(actions\: extérieures\rightarrow système)=M\:
\overrightarrow{\Gamma }(G)\\
\overrightarrow{M}G\: (action\: extérieure\rightarrow système)=\overrightarrow{0}
\end{array}\right. \]
are normally accepted by lux but not printed nor by gv nor by the printer.
this is not a big problem (I can write this without accents), but should
not be.
thanks

Hello,
Unfortunately, the form of \includegraphics used by LyX is a bit
rudimentary. In fact, the whole thing needs a rewrite...

TEXINPUTS should only contain absolute paths. If the eps figures are
in a subdirectory of the document directory, you can specify them as
eps/myfigure.eps

I guess the same answer holds.

Re: Bold greek characters in math-mode???
Thank you for your help.
A careful read of the LaTeX manual reveals that \mathbf, \mathrm, \mathit etc
change the style only of leters, numbers and UPPERCASE Greek letters. Hence the
need for something a little more drastic to obtain LOWERCASE Greek letters.
Stephan, your fix is essentially the same as my own. I find that what works
best for me is:
\newcommand{\bmath}[1]{\mbox{ \boldmath$\!\!#1$}}
The formatting here is Ok and \( a \bmath{\omega} b \) gives me
a bold omega with normal a, b on either side. Importantly, there are no large
spaces between the three symbols.
What a faff!
Angus
not able to search through read-only files
If I try to search through the documentation (or any other read-only) file, Search&Replace window won't pop-up (probably because of that 'replace' component). I consider it a bug. The popup window with the 'replace' field disabled would be quite fine. My version: 1.1.4pre1 on Linux Thanks -- v Davor Cengija [EMAIL PROTECTED] === "Please allow 30 days for delivery"

try \matrx{B} and \matrx{\Gamma}
and than you get bold B and bold Gamma. notice that B is in italic, it's
the standard math mode for latin letters. if you want italic style for
the capital greek letters too, try
\newcommand{\matrx}[1]{\mathbf{ \mit#1 }}

Bold greek characters in math-mode???
Any power-LaTeX users out there who can help me?
I'm trying to get bold greek characters in mathed (actually, in the output from
LaTeX --- I don't really care if LyX can't bold them!)
Typing "M-b a \beta c" within mathed produces bold "a" and "c" but not \gamma.
This also happens in macros. For example, using the macro:
\newcommand{\matrx}[1]{\mathbf{ #1 }}
Typing \matrx B creates a bold "B", but \matrx \Gamma produces an un-bolded
\Gamma.
I have to define a horrible cludge:
\newcommand{\bmath}[1]{ \mbox{ \boldmath ${ \!\! #1 \!\! }$ } }
\newcommand{\matrx}[1]{\bmath{ #1 }}
This DOES work. Everything is bolded. However, the negative spaces (that I
introduce to try and keep the output reasonable looking) mess up the
typesetting. Sometimes they're Ok, sometimes they're not.
Can anybody do any better?
Best wishes,
Angus
