tabular formatting

[thomas schönhoff]

Hi everybody,
at the moment i am creating a wide tabular using
Lyx 1.1.4.
Now, after Herbert gave me some initial hints i
sometimes had a look (gv) to see how the tabular
is looking like. In general it looks fine but
there are some cells in which the text is very
curiously distributet by LaTeX. (for example a
seperation in form of some spaces between two
words which should stick together and havn't
concioussly seperated by me !) Formerly i press
the linebreak button the result wasn't very
satisfactory.
I wonder if it isn't possible to correct the
text-distribution by LaTeX manually. I now first
want to finish the tabular and intent to do
formatting afterwards (hopefully will sucessfully
correct the thing!).
Does somebody know if that's possible to do it
this way ? Are there any other options ?

Many regards

Thomas

Re: Tabelle in Lyx

[Andre Poenitz]

 Mein Problem ist, dass Lyx Tabellen immer nach dem
 "what you see is what you get- Prinzip" erstellt.

Du kannst im Text einer Tabellenspalte mit Ctrl-Return
Zeilenumbrueche einfuegen, die von LaTeX ignoriert werden,
d.h. die Zeilen werden kuerzer auf dem Bildschirm, ohne
dass sich am Ausdruck was aendert.

Es kann aber trotzdem passieren, dass die Zeilen zu lang 
auf dem Bildschirm werden. In dem Fall hast Du schlechte
Karten. Das Problem ist bekannt...

Hello,
I write a document in french language, with lyx, and 
I insert a table of contents.
How can I make appear "table des matières" in place


suffice it to quote language "french" in the document properties. may be
the "locale" should have been installed (in .bashrc)

in fact I don't know for shure if "french" and "francais" works in the
same way?

french selects the french option of the babel package, don't know what
it does besides the hyphenation stuff.
Here I have the GUTenberg french.sty package, which is called instead
the default french names of the table of contents, bibliography, etc. are
selected and can be tuned in the preamble among many other 
french typographic fine tunings.

As for the LyX window, here is attached the stdfrench.inc file
that I use to francise the appearance of the LyX window (what is not
tuned by the locale).

hit ctrl-enter at the end of this lines. i suppose you have a

enabled linebreaks. right?

  Hello,
  
  We already had some reports about that in the past, and I seem to

  able to look at it closely, it never got fixed.

You have to modify the layout files for that...

Emanuele 2) Is there somewhere "AMS report" as document class? Hopw
Emanuele can I get it in Lyx?

Well, since the AMS does not publish reports per se, there is no
corresponding class.

Re: tabular formatting

[Juergen Vigna]

Hello Thomas!

I had a look at your file and the notes you wrote me and this is the
solution:

1. When using multirow-cells and you want linebreaks activated you have
   to pay attention that ALL "multirow" cells in that row have linebreaks
   activated AND the same numbers of rows (look at the second row in the
   attachement)

2. When using multirow without linebreaks you should use a hypenation point
   (Special Char) to tell LaTeX where you want your word hypanated and not
   do this by hand as this produces the wrong results.

So have a look at the modified example and let me know if this works!

Greets Jürgen

P.S.: I'm using lyx-1.1.5cvs so you may have problems loading the files
  with older versions because of the \protected_separator.

 problem by 
 installing the sgmltools V2 and put their bin directory before the bin

  No, there aren't new dependencies. It was my mistake, I haven't added
the automatic configuration, I forgot it.

  Please add the following lines to your lyxrc file:

#
# LINUXDOC SECTION ###
#

# If you want to pass extra flags to the LinuxDoc sgml scripts, insert them
# here. 
# Example: the next line activates iso-latin1 support:
#\linuxdoc_to_latex_command "sgml2latex -c latin"

# Here you have the command to convert from linuxdoc to html.
# Example: one html file only.
#\linuxdoc_to_html_command "sgml2html -s 0"

# The LinuxDoc to LyX converter
#\linuxdoc_to_lyx_command "sgml2lyx"

#
# DOCBOOK SECTION 
#

# Command to convert a docbook file to dvi
#\docbook_to_dvi_command "sgmltools -b dvi"

# Command to convert a docbook file to html
#\docbook_to_html_command "sgmltools -b html"

# Command to convert a docbook file to pdf
#\docbook_to_pdf_command ""


### end 

  Uncomment (removed the leading #) the lines that apply to you. Notice that
now it will possible to use other docbook distributions besides sgmltools v2.
After the configuration code this will work out of the box with suse, red hat,
and possibly sgmltools-lite (v3 of sgmltools).

  RSN, I will add the code that does the detection during reconfigure.

  Notice that now it will be possible to export the lyx-docbook document directly
to html. AS well as use personal stylesheets to configure your output.

  Igonre the pdf part, for now, as I'm expecting the lyx-latex backends to support
it to add it to docbook.

Question about future functionalities

[Pierre Ferraud]

Hello,

I will wish to propose to my students a software for scientific edition


in WYSIWYG (or WYSIWYM...;)). I find LyX wonderful compared to what

exists, but I have a little question.

Is it envisaged, before October 2000, to include the following

functionalities :

- The displaying (on the screen) of the whole of the symbols of AMS

(currently, the pallet of displayable symbols is rather restricted)

- The functionality ABOVE/BELOW which allows, for example, to write the


arrow of an equation in chemistry (arrow with text above).

Thank you very much and best regards.

 this is the test-file in *lyx, hopefully this will
 be alright !? Besides I'm not very experienced
 formating tables with Lyx ! Thanks a lot for
 having a look after that, at the moment I'm not
 able to fix this problem.
 

Well you should also tell me what you don't like in the displaying #:O)
If possible with row-column number so that I find it fast.

Hallo Herbert !
As you've said before, the linebreak option has
been activated and I hit the crtl-enter buttons at
the end of every line.
Unfortunately the result wasn't satisfying, so I
vanished the linebreak option again and the text-
distribution was looking somehow better !? But
after all this is finally not the wanted result !
So I'm in search of other options for formatting
the table afterwards that means: with more
individual controll for text-distribution in
single cells ! (note: As I've noticed the
text-formatting within a table is line-
orientated, so every line within a cell is
corresponding with the same level line in the cell
beside. This causes some curious text-appearance
with/or without linebreak-option and ctrl/enter to
me !)
Just for make it sure,now I'm not talking about
Lyx but the text-appearance after formatted by
LaTeX !
 
kind regardsThomas

   Hello,
   
   We already had some reports about that in the past, and I seem to
   remember that LyX used a lot of network bandwidth for the cursor
   blinking feature. Unfortunatley, since nobody who had this problem was
   able to look at it closely, it never got fixed. 
 
 In despite of the fact I'm not an expert...
 If there is anything I can do, tell me!
 

I guess the only thing we can do is not having a blinking cursor, but this
is hard to test if one cannot see the behaviour.

Greets Jürgen

P.S.: You could try to disable cursor-blinking in the source and recompile
  and run it and see if its better ( I guess not as this affects LyX
  only if it's idle while you are typing this does not affect a lot)

 I would like to see the LDP start accepting more than SGML as a
 file
 format.

I've never understood why supposedly intelligent nerds
persist in flagellating themselves. A 500 Mhz processor is
easily capable of writing SGML for you and giving you a
WYSIWYG display. 


there is an evident answer to this. It's name is LyX.

LyX is wisiwyg (or so), VERY easy to use and can cope with linux doc,
docbook and direct html (with tth, latex2html or hevea).

there is only a drawback : lyx is a small team effort and not supported
enough. So the installation of lyx is a bit awkward. One must have LaTeX,
sgmltools v1 (for linux doc) sgml tools v2 (for docbook, don't seems to
install properly with SuSE) and hevea (good and free).

LyW is a free, nearly gpl (a little library problem), very fast and light,
runs on linux (of course) and any unix machine (perhaps), even on windows.

I vote for LyX to be the recommended LDP editor, and for a small help to
the lyx team. This could be a priority job, not very difficult.

this is much easier than any other word processor (I'm sorry, emacs is a
wonderfull editor but a poor word processor - but any body can use it, of
course)

me which are the problems for you in the example file you sent:

Row X Column Y: The formating should be like you see it in LyX, but it does
format it in "this" wrong mode.

tabular formatting

[thomas schönhoff]

Hi everybody,
at the moment i am creating a wide tabular using
Lyx 1.1.4.
Now, after Herbert gave me some initial hints i
sometimes had a look (gv) to see how the tabular
is looking like. In general it looks fine but
there are some cells in which the text is very
curiously distributet by LaTeX. (for example a
seperation in form of some spaces between two
words which should stick together and havn't
concioussly seperated by me !) Formerly i press
the linebreak button the result wasn't very
satisfactory.
I wonder if it isn't possible to correct the
text-distribution by LaTeX manually. I now first
want to finish the tabular and intent to do
formatting afterwards (hopefully will sucessfully
correct the thing!).
Does somebody know if that's possible to do it
this way ? Are there any other options ?

Many regards

Thomas

Re: Tabelle in Lyx

[Andre Poenitz]

 Mein Problem ist, dass Lyx Tabellen immer nach dem
 "what you see is what you get- Prinzip" erstellt.

Du kannst im Text einer Tabellenspalte mit Ctrl-Return
Zeilenumbrueche einfuegen, die von LaTeX ignoriert werden,
d.h. die Zeilen werden kuerzer auf dem Bildschirm, ohne
dass sich am Ausdruck was aendert.

Es kann aber trotzdem passieren, dass die Zeilen zu lang 
auf dem Bildschirm werden. In dem Fall hast Du schlechte
Karten. Das Problem ist bekannt...

How can I make appear "table des matières" in place


suffice it to quote language "french" in the document properties. may be

As for the LyX window, here is attached the stdfrench.inc file

Re: tabular formatting

[Juergen Vigna]

Hello Thomas!

I had a look at your file and the notes you wrote me and this is the
solution:

1. When using multirow-cells and you want linebreaks activated you have
   to pay attention that ALL "multirow" cells in that row have linebreaks
   activated AND the same numbers of rows (look at the second row in the
   attachement)

2. When using multirow without linebreaks you should use a hypenation point
   (Special Char) to tell LaTeX where you want your word hypanated and not
   do this by hand as this produces the wrong results.

So have a look at the modified example and let me know if this works!

Greets Jürgen

P.S.: I'm using lyx-1.1.5cvs so you may have problems loading the files

  No, there aren't new dependencies. It was my mistake, I haven't added
the automatic configuration, I forgot it.

  Please add the following lines to your lyxrc file:

#
# LINUXDOC SECTION ###
#

# If you want to pass extra flags to the LinuxDoc sgml scripts, insert them

# Example: the next line activates iso-latin1 support:

# Example: one html file only.
#\linuxdoc_to_html_command "sgml2html -s 0"

#\docbook_to_dvi_command "sgmltools -b dvi"

# Command to convert a docbook file to html
#\docbook_to_html_command "sgmltools -b html"

# Command to convert a docbook file to pdf
#\docbook_to_pdf_command ""


### end 

  Uncomment (removed the leading #) the lines that apply to you. Notice that
now it will possible to use other docbook distributions besides sgmltools v2.
After the configuration code this will work out of the box with suse, red hat,
and possibly sgmltools-lite (v3 of sgmltools).

  RSN, I will add the code that does the detection during reconfigure.

  Notice that now it will be possible to export the lyx-docbook document directly
to html. AS well as use personal stylesheets to configure your output.

  Igonre the pdf part, for now, as I'm expecting the lyx-latex backends to support
it to add it to docbook.

Question about future functionalities

[Pierre Ferraud]

Hello,

I will wish to propose to my students a software for scientific edition


in WYSIWYG (or WYSIWYM...;)). I find LyX wonderful compared to what

exists, but I have a little question.

Is it envisaged, before October 2000, to include the following

functionalities :

- The displaying (on the screen) of the whole of the symbols of AMS

(currently, the pallet of displayable symbols is rather restricted)

- The functionality ABOVE/BELOW which allows, for example, to write the


arrow of an equation in chemistry (arrow with text above).

Thank you very much and best regards.

Hallo Herbert !
As you've said before, the linebreak option has
been activated and I hit the crtl-enter buttons at
the end of every line.
Unfortunately the result wasn't satisfying, so I
vanished the linebreak option again and the text-
distribution was looking somehow better !? But
after all this is finally not the wanted result !
So I'm in search of other options for formatting
the table afterwards that means: with more
individual controll for text-distribution in
single cells ! (note: As I've noticed the
text-formatting within a table is line-
orientated, so every line within a cell is
corresponding with the same level line in the cell
beside. This causes some curious text-appearance
with/or without linebreak-option and ctrl/enter to
me !)
Just for make it sure,now I'm not talking about
Lyx but the text-appearance after formatted by
LaTeX !

   Hello,
   
   We already had some reports about that in the past, and I seem to
   remember that LyX used a lot of network bandwidth for the cursor
   blinking feature. Unfortunatley, since nobody who had this problem was
   able to look at it closely, it never got fixed. 
 
 In despite of the fact I'm not an expert...
 If there is anything I can do, tell me!
 

I guess the only thing we can do is not having a blinking cursor, but this
is hard to test if one cannot see the behaviour.

Greets Jürgen

P.S.: You could try to disable cursor-blinking in the source and recompile
  and run it and see if its better ( I guess not as this affects LyX
  only if it's idle while you are typing this does not affect a lot)

As I tried to explain before, with or without the
linebreak-option activated and crtl. /enter-option
the text-distribution isn't very satisfying. That
means in some cells everything is nice, but in
other cells special signs and relating text are
seperated. After all the readability of the table
suffers a lot from that !
For example:
the sign (-),(symbolising nothing/not/excluding),
should stay with the relating term but in some
cells this doesn't take place. They are unwantedly
seperated.
I think one have to see the testfile using gv to
see what I am talking about !

 I would like to see the LDP start accepting more than SGML as a
 file
 format.

I've never understood why supposedly intelligent nerds
persist in flagellating themselves. A 500 Mhz processor is
easily capable of writing SGML for you and giving you a
WYSIWYG display. 


there is an evident answer to this. It's name is LyX.

LyX is wisiwyg (or so), VERY easy to use and can cope with linux doc,
docbook and direct html (with tth, latex2html or hevea).

there is only a drawback : lyx is a small team effort and not supported
enough. So the installation of lyx is a bit awkward. One must have LaTeX,
sgmltools v1 (for linux doc) sgml tools v2 (for docbook, don't seems to
install properly with SuSE) and hevea (good and free).

LyW is a free, nearly gpl (a little library problem), very fast and light,
runs on linux (of course) and any unix machine (perhaps), even on windows.

I vote for LyX to be the recommended LDP editor, and for a small help to
the lyx team. This could be a priority job, not very difficult.

this is much easier than any other word processor (I'm sorry, emacs is a
wonderfull editor but a poor word processor - but any body can use it, of
course)

It's a bit hard to see what goes wrong when not haveing the undelining image
of the tabular. Could you send a test-file and tell us what exactly you don't
like with the formating. I admit that there ARE problems with formating of
multiline cells in tabulars, which I could fix with some tricks but in this
case LaTeX is very picky :) and you have to see it by example.

 For example:
 the sign (-),(symbolising nothing/not/excluding),

Well I see a few problems when viewing the file, but you still didn't tell
me which are the problems for you in the example file you sent:

Row X Column Y: The formating should be like you see it in LyX, but it does
format it in "this" wrong mode.

tabular formatting

[thomas schönhoff]

Hi everybody,
at the moment i am creating a wide tabular using
Lyx 1.1.4.
Now, after Herbert gave me some initial hints i
sometimes had a look (gv) to see how the tabular
is looking like. In general it looks fine but
there are some cells in which the text is very
curiously distributet by LaTeX. (for example a
seperation in form of some spaces between two
words which should stick together and havn't
concioussly seperated by me !) Formerly i press
the linebreak button the result wasn't very
satisfactory.
I wonder if it isn't possible to correct the
text-distribution by LaTeX manually. I now first
want to finish the tabular and intent to do
formatting afterwards (hopefully will sucessfully
correct the thing!).
Does somebody know if that's possible to do it
this way ? Are there any other options ?

Many regards

Thomas

Du kannst im Text einer Tabellenspalte mit Ctrl-Return
Zeilenumbrueche einfuegen, die von LaTeX ignoriert werden,
d.h. die Zeilen werden kuerzer auf dem Bildschirm, ohne
dass sich am Ausdruck was aendert.

Es kann aber trotzdem passieren, dass die Zeilen zu lang 
auf dem Bildschirm werden. In dem Fall hast Du schlechte
Karten. Das Problem ist bekannt...

french selects the french option of the babel package, don't know what
it does besides the hyphenation stuff.
Here I have the GUTenberg french.sty package, which is called instead
the default french names of the table of contents, bibliography, etc. are
selected and can be tuned in the preamble among many other 
french typographic fine tunings.

As for the LyX window, here is attached the stdfrench.inc file
that I use to francise the appearance of the LyX window (what is not
tuned by the locale).

Re: tabular formatting

[Juergen Vigna]

Hello Thomas!

I had a look at your file and the notes you wrote me and this is the
solution:

1. When using multirow-cells and you want linebreaks activated you have
   to pay attention that ALL "multirow" cells in that row have linebreaks
   activated AND the same numbers of rows (look at the second row in the
   attachement)

2. When using multirow without linebreaks you should use a hypenation point
   (Special Char) to tell LaTeX where you want your word hypanated and not
   do this by hand as this produces the wrong results.

So have a look at the modified example and let me know if this works!

  No, there aren't new dependencies. It was my mistake, I haven't added
the automatic configuration, I forgot it.

  Please add the following lines to your lyxrc file:

#
# LINUXDOC SECTION ###
#

# If you want to pass extra flags to the LinuxDoc sgml scripts, insert them
# here. 
# Example: the next line activates iso-latin1 support:
#\linuxdoc_to_latex_command "sgml2latex -c latin"

# Here you have the command to convert from linuxdoc to html.
# Example: one html file only.
#\linuxdoc_to_html_command "sgml2html -s 0"

# The LinuxDoc to LyX converter
#\linuxdoc_to_lyx_command "sgml2lyx"

#
# DOCBOOK SECTION 
#

# Command to convert a docbook file to dvi
#\docbook_to_dvi_command "sgmltools -b dvi"

# Command to convert a docbook file to html
#\docbook_to_html_command "sgmltools -b html"

# Command to convert a docbook file to pdf
#\docbook_to_pdf_command ""


### end 

  Uncomment (removed the leading #) the lines that apply to you. Notice that
now it will possible to use other docbook distributions besides sgmltools v2.
After the configuration code this will work out of the box with suse, red hat,
and possibly sgmltools-lite (v3 of sgmltools).

  RSN, I will add the code that does the detection during reconfigure.

  Notice that now it will be possible to export the lyx-docbook document directly
to html. AS well as use personal stylesheets to configure your output.

  Igonre the pdf part, for now, as I'm expecting the lyx-latex backends to support
it to add it to docbook.

Question about future functionalities

functionalities :

Hi,

I had the same problem like you. I'm using SuSE 6.3. I solved the
problem by 
installing the sgmltools V2 and put their bin directory before the bin
where
my sgmltools V1 are installed together with docbook. After this the
configure script recognized my sgmltools V2 and docbook also.

Hope this helps.

Hallo Herbert !
As you've said before, the linebreak option has
been activated and I hit the crtl-enter buttons at
the end of every line.
Unfortunately the result wasn't satisfying, so I
vanished the linebreak option again and the text-
distribution was looking somehow better !? But
after all this is finally not the wanted result !
So I'm in search of other options for formatting
the table afterwards that means: with more
individual controll for text-distribution in
single cells ! (note: As I've noticed the
text-formatting within a table is line-
orientated, so every line within a cell is
corresponding with the same level line in the cell
beside. This causes some curious text-appearance
with/or without linebreak-option and ctrl/enter to
me !)
Just for make it sure,now I'm not talking about
Lyx but the text-appearance after formatted by
LaTeX !
 
kind regardsThomas

I guess the only thing we can do is not having a blinking cursor, but this
is hard to test if one cannot see the behaviour.

Greets Jürgen

P.S.: You could try to disable cursor-blinking in the source and recompile
  and run it and see if its better ( I guess not as this affects LyX
  only if it's idle while you are typing this does not affect a lot)

As I tried to explain before, with or without the
linebreak-option activated and crtl. /enter-option
the text-distribution isn't very satisfying. That
means in some cells everything is nice, but in
other cells special signs and relating text are
seperated. After all the readability of the table
suffers a lot from that !
For example:
the sign (-),(symbolising nothing/not/excluding),
should stay with the relating term but in some
cells this doesn't take place. They are unwantedly
seperated.
I think one have to see the testfile using gv to
see what I am talking about !

1) I use AMS book in italian but some words are not translated,
i.e.:theorem, proof etc..
How can I do? Can I translate on my own ?

2) Is there somewhere "AMS report" as document class? Hopw can I get it in
Lyx?

I have seen the same thing when using LyX using an AIX 3.2 workstation as
an X terminal.

LyX launched directly on that machine yields no problems.

The load is very, very low

So the ispell problem has been solved now ;-)

Here again a first questions concerning the relyx problem so we can
(hopefully) again solve the problem step by step:

What is the reason NOT to use /usr/local/perl from the CygWin port? I am
using that version and relyx will do the job fine!

Do you call relyx from within LyX or from a shell/command.com window?

there is an evident answer to this. It's name is LyX.

LyX is wisiwyg (or so), VERY easy to use and can cope with linux doc,
docbook and direct html (with tth, latex2html or hevea).

there is only a drawback : lyx is a small team effort and not supported
enough. So the installation of lyx is a bit awkward. One must have LaTeX,
sgmltools v1 (for linux doc) sgml tools v2 (for docbook, don't seems to
install properly with SuSE) and hevea (good and free).

LyW is a free, nearly gpl (a little library problem), very fast and light,
runs on linux (of course) and any unix machine (perhaps), even on windows.

I vote for LyX to be the recommended LDP editor, and for a small help to
the lyx team. This could be a priority job, not very difficult.

this is much easier than any other word processor (I'm sorry, emacs is a
wonderfull editor but a poor word processor - but any body can use it, of
course)

Even better -- the LyX people are working on making LyX GUI-independant.
I'm personally looking forward to a Palm version ('cause that would be
useful and unique) and a curses version (because I'm just that kind of
person).  And just imagine being able to use LyX to help people switch from
the Default Platform to a real OS ;-)!

I'm sure that would be useful.  Of course, learning LyX coding would
probably be more immediately and generally useful.

Lyx with a Vi-like interface?  *That* would be my app-from-heaven.  I should
probably be taking something for that.

It's a bit hard to see what goes wrong when not haveing the undelining image
of the tabular. Could you send a test-file and tell us what exactly you don't
like with the formating. I admit that there ARE problems with formating of
multiline cells in tabulars, which I could fix with some tricks but in this
case LaTeX is very picky :) and you have to see it by example.

Well I see a few problems when viewing the file, but you still didn't tell
me which are the problems for you in the example file you sent:

Row X Column Y: The formating should be like you see it in LyX, but it does
format it in "this" wrong mode.

  There was a contribution for a layout file to do that.
  I still had the time to examine it, before clean it
a little bit. Expect it t6o be included before the final 1.1.5
