Cubic Root
How can I set a cubic root in math mode? Using \sqrt will produce a square
root. In Latex you can use \sqrt[3]{x+1} to define the cubix root of (x+1).
But wenn entering the '['-sign, LyX switches to show the root symbol like
you enter a space.
Thanks in advance

I know two workaround, though: Type "^3sqrt(expression)", ie. you use a superscript "3" just before the square root. It doesn't look perfect, though. Or use simple mathematical identities: replace the cubic root with "(expression)^(1/3)" :)

Hi Lyx-ianer, i have a special german question. I tried to use the package natbib and bibgerm to include citation references in my lyx-document. In the BibTeX generated references i used the style gerapali.bst and the results were looking quite good. The only thing that i want to get rid of are the short citations in parenthesis in front of the full citation references in the created reference capitel. Is it possible to exclude the short citations and the parenthesis with a TeX command or with simple changes in the gerapali.bst style file? Example: -original: [Author1 et al. 1987] Author1, A., B. Author2 und C. Author3 (1987). title ... -what i want: Author1, A., B. Author2 und C. Author3 (1987). title ...

small caps question
I've been using LyX since version 0.11, but not until today have I ever used the "Noun Style" button. What I find is that when I set something to Noun Style, it gets changed to capital letters on my display, but is still being treated as small letters as far as cursor movement is concerned. Thar is to say, if i change "test" to a noun style, it displays as "TEST", taking up more room on screen but the cursor (and word wrap) believe that it is still in lower case. This causes words to spill off the right edge of my window and maked editing nearly impossible. Am I doing something wrong? This can't possibly be correct behaviour, can it?

small caps question
I've been using LyX since version 0.11, but not until today have I ever used the "Noun Style" button. What I find is that when I set something to Noun Style, it gets changed to capital letters on my display, but is still being treated as small letters as far as cursor movement is concerned. Thar is to say, if i change "test" to a noun style, it displays as "TEST", taking up more room on screen but the cursor (and word wrap) believe that it is still in lower case. This causes words to spill off the right edge of my window and maked editing nearly impossible. Am I doing something wrong? This can't possibly be correct behaviour, can it?

After that, I use something like: psbook file.ps | psnup -2 -s1 > tmp.ps. I assume you're on Linux, then with gv or psselect you just select odd and/or even pages to print.

Cubic Root
How can I set a cubic root in math mode? Using \sqrt will produce a square
root. In Latex you can use \sqrt[3]{x+1} to define the cubix root of (x+1).
But wenn entering the '['-sign, LyX switches to show the root symbol like
you enter a space.
Thanks in advance

Cross-References

"M-m r" should do the trick. Typing latex directly is not supported.

Using \sqrt will produce a square Last time this was asked, the answer was that it's still not possible with LyX. I think it still holds. *Maybe* you can do it using TeX code, but I don't know how. I know two workaround, though: Type "^3sqrt(expression)", ie. you use a superscript "3" just before the square root. It doesn't look perfect, though. Or use simple mathematical identities: replace the cubic root with "(expression)^(1/3)" :)

If you add a number to your equations, I guess you mean a label too?
In this case it will be \begin{equation}. Otherwise, if you feel like

Well, I don't need every equation to have a unique \ref, but yes, I want
them to be numbered 1.1, 1.2, etc.

Are you telling me that every person who's written their thesis with LyX has
either used that hack or math-number'ed every single equation in their
thesis? I'll probably have only 30 or so, but some theses have hundreds!
On the other hand, I just looked at math.bind and found out I can use
"M-m n" to number an equation, so it's not so painful after all.
Nonetheless, there ought to be a command & corresponding binding that
automatically opens an equation instead of a displaymath
(e.g., "M-m e" = "M-m d" + "M-m n"). Of course I ought to do it myself. I
guess I'm just too lazy. But if Dekel is working on putting math-number in
the menu, maybe he could do this on the side?

Speaking of math-bind, the current math.bind has: \bind "M-m ~S-period" "accent-dot" But when I hit shift-period, I get a ">", and so I get \bind "M-m ~S-greater" "math-delim rangle langle" Why not bind to "M-m period"? While we're at it, Customization has a *very* short description of the bind files. (It says to look at the bind files to see how they work.) For example, how do I know what ~S means in a bind file?

Well, it is mentioned there, but it doesn't say there what ~S means either. And I think it really belongs in Customization, no? We definitely need to start a LyX Inc. company so we can hire someone to finish the Reference! -Amir
Bindings cont.
For those wondering what ~S in a bind-file means, from what I can tell, it would mean anything *except* shift. Except that according to the comments in kb_sequence::addkey, it's currently unused. By the way, the problem with using ~S for ">" is that on a standard American keyboard, you *have* to use the shift key to get a ">"! -Amir
Question about cite-bibtex
Hi, list I noted a little problem: when i am using a bibtex file, the reference list does not appear in the window popup if you uses a relative path for your archive.bib. If you write the reference by hand, latex work well, so, the problem is only in the popup. I am using lyx-1.1.4 and libforms.0.89 Any noted this behavior previously? Osvaldo Fornaro
BibTeX and bibgerm package
Hi Lyx-ianer, i have a special german question. I tried to use the package natbib and bibgerm to include citation references in my lyx-document. In the BibTeX generated references i used the style gerapali.bst and the results were looking quite good. The only thing that i want to get rid of are the short citations in parenthesis in front of the full citation references in the created reference capitel. Is it possible to exclude the short citations and the parenthesis with a TeX command or with simple changes in the gerapali.bst style file? Example: -original: [Author1 et al. 1987] Author1, A., B. Author2 und C. Author3 (1987). title ... -what i want: Author1, A., B. Author2 und C. Author3 (1987). title ... Without the bibgerm package and with the normal apalike.bst it works fine, without any short citations in parenthesis in front of the normal citation references.
