Any idea?

I recompile this release on an alpha (OSF4.0) without problems, on 2

sparc station gives problems.

I use a RH 6.0 on it.

Re: tables

2001-02-02 Thread Alain Castera


Something like this ? If yes, what you need is 
- \usepackage{colortbl} in preamble
- |{\columncolor[gray]{.8}}l| in table-extra-options-special
alignment or whatever the names in your current language.

NOTEs :
- As you want to change only a few lines, you have to use the
multicol options and alignement, and then "manually" manage your borders.
( I never obtain "perfect" result in less than half-an-hour :-)) )
- my example is with lyx 1.1.5. Tables handling changed with
1.1.6, so you may be in trouble reading the file (I didn't test, because 
I have a lot of files with tables which must be frozen before I switch.
Can somebody tell me if there is any problem/solution to switch from
1.1.5 to 1.1.6 ? ). 

Hope this help.

Alain

commands with 2 args in a layout ?

Hello,

I am trying to make a layout for the lettre.cls written by Denis Mgevaud. I
have had no problem for the "lettre" TextClass but I am having one whith the
"telefax" one, namely that they must start with \telefax{XXX}{YYY} where XXX is
the fax number and YYY is the recepiender name and I have not found any "style"
that could generate this kind of structure.  Is this acheivable or is it
necessary to use a dialog box (as for the citation insertions) ?

There might be another solution, that is to modify the lettre class, but then
the layout will be dependant of this modification.

Re: commands with 2 args in a layout ?

2001-02-02 Thread Alain Castera


Salut Nabil.

I already started working with lettre.cls, but never went deeply into the
fax part. In fact, I stopped when I got the very minimum I needed. lazzy
boy!

So I havent exactly your answer, but this file may help you anyway.
There is a lot of thing a layout can do, by putting LaTeX cod einto the 
Preamble.
Here, the idea was to get rid of the imposed order of letter and so on
classes( I like to write a letter as I am used to see it). So each layout,
instead of using the Latex command, declared a variables. The appropriate
latex construction is done once a new "lettre" or "fax" is encountered
(with lettre.cls there may be more than one on a file), and when the "fin
de fichier" layout is encountered.

So, for the fax, you could declare a "numero du destinataire" and a
"destinataire" layouts, which set LaTeX variables destNumber and destId,
and then when buildind the correct LaTeX output use
\telefax{\destNumber}{\destId}

If you adopt this scheme, I will be glad to use your layout (I insist to
make LyX lettre layout "order insensitive"). And maybe I could find some
time to help you a little bit (but remember, I am lazzy).

Anyway, if my draft can help you, here it is.

Have fun
Alain

Is that related to LyX's little quirk where sometimes, after its own dialog

touch-typing (not watching screen), I have done something like "yada yada 
M-i-r volt-example-1 return blah blah..." only to find that the "blahs" 
went nowhere because the WM did not re-focus LyX when the "Insert reference"

(WindowMaker, KDE[12]).
So, I have to look more often at what I've been typing... normally I don't

Now there are two versions available!

- One (as the last two releases) including a little bit of Windows' stuff to
access the registry of Windows and to ensure one single window on the

- NEW there is available a native Cygwin executable (like all versions

You can use a single latex parameter, and split it into two parameters by using
predefined delimiters (brackets in the example). Of course, it works only if the
writter respect the syntax!

LyX 1.1.5x and keyboard control

2001-02-02 Thread Florian Cramer

While it was never possible to control each and every function/popu in LyX
through keyboard commands, chances have considerably decreased since tabbed
dialogues were introduced in LyX 1.1.6x. I therefore have to admit my
somewhat mixed feelings about the advancement of LyX. The new functions of
1.1.6 are huge accomplishments, but the need to use the mouse more often to
get things done is a huge drawback, at least for me.

Is an objective for the developer team to achieve as much keyboard
compatibility as possible? Wouldn't that be a necessary prerequisite for
full GUI independence and curses/slang/newt-based frontends?

If so, is there any way the user community community help in this affair? I
would be willing to offer money on the "Free Software Bazaar" for making LyX
100% (or at least 99.5%) controllable through the keyboard. But such an
offer would only make sense if others join and increase the sum offered.

Problems installing LyX 1.1.6fix1 (win32)

2001-02-02 Thread Steffen Seufert

Hello,

I installed the new version of Lyx (on Win2000), but it hangs (as reported
before in this mailing list) when you first time press a key
on the keyboard.

Everything else works fine when you only use the mouse.

(With Version 1.1.6 there's that problem, too. Version 1.1.5fix2 no
problems.)

As a possible solution there was suggested an upgrade of the x-server.

I tried X-Win32 5.1.1. build2 (demo version) and Winaxe 6.0 (demo version):
The same behaviour.

Has anyone a solution for this problem?

Another thing on Version 1.1.6.fix1 is that the runconfigure.bat doesn't
complete.
It stops at:
"checking latex configuration ... (auto)"

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Bye,
Steffen

Dear fellow LyXers,

LyX has saved me so much time that I am willing to contribute EURO 100 
specifically for this project and restricted to it. However, what 
assurances have we that the funds in fact arrive where they should and 
are used for the intended purposes? Now we are not just talking about 
web security, but about financial controls.

Best regards,

Lucien

Re: tables

2001-02-02 Thread Alain Castera


Something like this ? If yes, what you need is 
- \usepackage{colortbl} in preamble
- |{\columncolor[gray]{.8}}l| in table-extra-options-special
alignment or whatever the names in your current language.

NOTEs :
- As you want to change only a few lines, you have to use the
multicol options and alignement, and then "manually" manage your borders.
( I never obtain "perfect" result in less than half-an-hour :-)) )
- my example is with lyx 1.1.5. Tables handling changed with
1.1.6, so you may be in trouble reading the file (I didn't test, because 
I have a lot of files with tables which must be frozen before I switch.
Can somebody tell me if there is any problem/solution to switch from
1.1.5 to 1.1.6 ? ). 

Hope this help.

Alain

commands with 2 args in a layout ?

2001-02-02 Thread Nabil Hathout

Hello,

I am trying to make a layout for the lettre.cls written by Denis Mgevaud. I
have had no problem for the "lettre" TextClass but I am having one whith the
"telefax" one, namely that they must start with \telefax{XXX}{YYY} where XXX is
the fax number and YYY is the recepiender name and I have not found any "style"
that could generate this kind of structure.  Is this acheivable or is it
necessary to use a dialog box (as for the citation insertions) ?

There might be another solution, that is to modify the lettre class, but then
the layout will be dependant of this modification.

Thank you in advance,

Re: commands with 2 args in a layout ?

2001-02-02 Thread Alain Castera


Salut Nabil.

I already started working with lettre.cls, but never went deeply into the
fax part. In fact, I stopped when I got the very minimum I needed. lazzy
boy!

So I havent exactly your answer, but this file may help you anyway.
There is a lot of thing a layout can do, by putting LaTeX cod einto the 
Preamble.
Here, the idea was to get rid of the imposed order of letter and so on
classes( I like to write a letter as I am used to see it). So each layout,
instead of using the Latex command, declared a variables. The appropriate
latex construction is done once a new "lettre" or "fax" is encountered
(with lettre.cls there may be more than one on a file), and when the "fin
de fichier" layout is encountered.

So, for the fax, you could declare a "numero du destinataire" and a
"destinataire" layouts, which set LaTeX variables destNumber and destId,
and then when buildind the correct LaTeX output use
\telefax{\destNumber}{\destId}

If you adopt this scheme, I will be glad to use your layout (I insist to
make LyX lettre layout "order insensitive"). And maybe I could find some
time to help you a little bit (but remember, I am lazzy).

Anyway, if my draft can help you, here it is.

Have fun
Alain

Is that related to LyX's little quirk where sometimes, after its own dialog

went nowhere because the WM did not re-focus LyX when the "Insert reference"

You can use a single latex parameter, and split it into two parameters by using
predefined delimiters (brackets in the example). Of course, it works only if the
writter respect the syntax!

2001-02-02 Thread Emanuele Olivetti

I'compiled lyx-1.1.6fix1, everything works well, but at the
1st run LyX tried to execute share/lyx/configure without
success. I noticed that shell script has not executable permission,
so I changed permission and now it works.

I've compiled and installed with user priveileges (I've not root login :-( ).
Is this the reason of the (small) bug?


Thanks to all LyX developers.

LyX turns black: tabular problem in 1.1.6fix1

2001-02-02 Thread Jan Ulrich Hasecke

Hi!

Please have a look at the attached example-file. When I click into the
last cell in the right column (6,00) with the left mouse to aktivate
the new red text-border and then click inside of the redborder the
right button to get to the tabular-menu, LyX turns black.

Ciao!

LyX 1.1.5x and keyboard control

2001-02-02 Thread Florian Cramer

While it was never possible to control each and every function/popu in LyX
through keyboard commands, chances have considerably decreased since tabbed
dialogues were introduced in LyX 1.1.6x. I therefore have to admit my
somewhat mixed feelings about the advancement of LyX. The new functions of
1.1.6 are huge accomplishments, but the need to use the mouse more often to
get things done is a huge drawback, at least for me.

Is an objective for the developer team to achieve as much keyboard
compatibility as possible? Wouldn't that be a necessary prerequisite for
full GUI independence and curses/slang/newt-based frontends?

If so, is there any way the user community community help in this affair? I
would be willing to offer money on the "Free Software Bazaar" for making LyX
100% (or at least 99.5%) controllable through the keyboard. But such an
offer would only make sense if others join and increase the sum offered.

Problems installing LyX 1.1.6fix1 (win32)

2001-02-02 Thread Steffen Seufert

Hello,

I installed the new version of Lyx (on Win2000), but it hangs (as reported
before in this mailing list) when you first time press a key
on the keyboard.

Everything else works fine when you only use the mouse.

(With Version 1.1.6 there's that problem, too. Version 1.1.5fix2 no
problems.)

As a possible solution there was suggested an upgrade of the x-server.

I tried X-Win32 5.1.1. build2 (demo version) and Winaxe 6.0 (demo version):
The same behaviour.

Has anyone a solution for this problem?

Another thing on Version 1.1.6.fix1 is that the runconfigure.bat doesn't
complete.
It stops at:
"checking latex configuration ... (auto)"

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Bye,
Steffen

Dear fellow LyXers,

LyX has saved me so much time that I am willing to contribute EURO 100 
specifically for this project and restricted to it. However, what 
assurances have we that the funds in fact arrive where they should and 
are used for the intended purposes? Now we are not just talking about 
web security, but about financial controls.

Best regards,

Lucien

Probleme "PS rendering" on Sparc IPX lyx 1.1.6fix1

2001-02-02 Thread Yann MORERE

Hello, users and developpers, 

I've got a big problem after compiling the 1.1.6fix release (same error
with 1.1.6), if I try to open lyx files containing a figure, lyx doesn't
respond anymore, and a "ps ux" gives me 2 lyx processes.

So I tried to make a new file containing a figure. In fact lyx freeze
just after clickink OK, when it tries to render the figure. If i click
on "not displayed" options, lyx doesn't freeze. so the problem seems to
come from rendering.

Any idea?

I recompile this release on an alpha (OSF4.0) without problems, on 2
i386 (pentium and 486) (suse6.2 and RH6.1) without problems... only the
sparc station gives problems.

I use a RH 6.0 on it.

Yann

Re: tables

2001-02-02 Thread Alain Castera


Something like this ? If yes, what you need is 
- \usepackage{colortbl} in preamble
- |>{\columncolor[gray]{.8}}l| in table->extra-options->special
alignment or whatever the names in your current language.

NOTEs :
- As you want to change only a few lines, you have to use the
multicol options and alignement, and then "manually" manage your borders.
( I never obtain "perfect" result in less than half-an-hour :-)) )
- my example is with lyx 1.1.5. Tables handling changed with
1.1.6, so you may be in trouble reading the file (I didn't test, because 
I have a lot of files with tables which must be frozen before I switch.
Can somebody tell me if there is any problem/solution to switch from
1.1.5 to 1.1.6 ? ). 

Hope this help.

Alain

commands with 2 args in a layout ?

2001-02-02 Thread Nabil Hathout

Hello,

I am trying to make a layout for the lettre.cls written by Denis Mégevaud. I
have had no problem for the "lettre" TextClass but I am having one whith the
"telefax" one, namely that they must start with \telefax{XXX}{YYY} where XXX is
the fax number and YYY is the recepiender name and I have not found any "style"
that could generate this kind of structure.  Is this acheivable or is it
necessary to use a dialog box (as for the citation insertions) ?

There might be another solution, that is to modify the lettre class, but then
the layout will be dependant of this modification.

Thank you in advance,

Re: commands with 2 args in a layout ?

2001-02-02 Thread Alain Castera


Salut Nabil.

I already started working with lettre.cls, but never went deeply into the
fax part. In fact, I stopped when I got the very minimum I needed. lazzy
boy!

So I havent exactly your answer, but this file may help you anyway.
There is a lot of thing a layout can do, by putting LaTeX cod einto the 
Preamble.
Here, the idea was to get rid of the imposed order of letter and so on
classes( I like to write a letter as I am used to see it). So each layout,
instead of using the Latex command, declared a variables. The appropriate
latex construction is done once a new "lettre" or "fax" is encountered
(with lettre.cls there may be more than one on a file), and when the "fin
de fichier" layout is encountered.

So, for the fax, you could declare a "numero du destinataire" and a
"destinataire" layouts, which set LaTeX variables destNumber and destId,
and then when buildind the correct LaTeX output use
\telefax{\destNumber}{\destId}

If you adopt this scheme, I will be glad to use your layout (I insist to
make LyX lettre layout "order insensitive"). And maybe I could find some
time to help you a little bit (but remember, I am lazzy).

Anyway, if my draft can help you, here it is.

Have fun
Alain

Is that related to LyX's little quirk where sometimes, after its own dialog 
boxes close, LyX does not regain focus? I cannot count the times where, while 
touch-typing (not watching screen), I have done something like "yada yada 
 volt-example-1  blah blah..." only to find that the "blahs" 
went nowhere because the WM did not re-focus LyX when the "Insert reference" 
box closed. I have seen this behavior under different window managers 
(WindowMaker, KDE[12]).
So, I have to look more often at what I've been typing... normally I don't 
like to do that because I might find a mistake.  ;)

As quick as possible ;-) the current stable release 1.1.6fix1(Win32) is
available for download as usual here:
http://www.fh-hannover.de/mbau/tim/hentschel/lyx/index.htm

Now there are two versions available!

- One (as the last two releases) including a little bit of Windows' stuff to
access the registry of Windows and to ensure one single window on the
screen.

- NEW there is available a native Cygwin executable (like all versions
before release 1.1.5fix2) where error output can be viewed in a command line
window running beside!

Happy lyxing on M$-Windows!

it's the same in 1.1.6!
changing the rowcolor write just in the left (first) cell of a row
in tex (red) for example

\rowcolor[gray]{.9}

any text in this cell has to placed right from this command!

\rowcolor[gray]{1} gives a noncolored row.

You can use a single latex parameter, and split it into two parameters by using
predefined delimiters (brackets in the example). Of course, it works only if the
writter respect the syntax!

Installation help

2001-02-02 Thread William Adler

Is there a binary version for solaris 2.6 or 2.7?

I am trying to compile lyx 1-1.6 on a 2.6 machine using egcs-2.91 and I

keep running into class errors on stdexcept? Since I am not a C++

programmer I really do not understand the errors.  Has anyone seen this?

If I used the SUNWorkshop compiler I run into other errors.

THanks

small bug?

2001-02-02 Thread Emanuele Olivetti

I'compiled lyx-1.1.6fix1, everything works well, but at the
1st run LyX tried to execute share/lyx/configure without
success. I noticed that shell script has not executable permission,
so I changed permission and now it works.

I've compiled and installed with user priveileges (I've not root login :-( ).
Is this the reason of the (small) bug?


Thanks to all LyX developers.


Emanuele

I have updated the 1.1.6fix1 RPMs with the Makefile.am patch.

Lars or JMarc, please copy these onto the lyx.org machines.

LyX turns black: tabular problem in 1.1.6fix1

2001-02-02 Thread Jan Ulrich Hasecke

Hi!

Please have a look at the attached example-file. When I click into the
last cell in the right column (6,00) with the left mouse to aktivate
the new red text-border and then click inside of the redborder the
right button to get to the tabular-menu, LyX turns black.

Ciao!

LyX 1.1.5x and keyboard control

2001-02-02 Thread Florian Cramer

While it was never possible to control each and every function/popu in LyX
through keyboard commands, chances have considerably decreased since tabbed
dialogues were introduced in LyX 1.1.6x. I therefore have to admit my
somewhat mixed feelings about the advancement of LyX. The new functions of
1.1.6 are huge accomplishments, but the need to use the mouse more often to
get things done is a huge drawback, at least for me.

Is an objective for the developer team to achieve as much keyboard
compatibility as possible? Wouldn't that be a necessary prerequisite for
full GUI independence and curses/slang/newt-based frontends?

If so, is there any way the user community community help in this affair? I
would be willing to offer money on the "Free Software Bazaar" for making LyX
100% (or at least 99.5%) controllable through the keyboard. But such an
offer would only make sense if others join and increase the sum offered.

Problems installing LyX 1.1.6fix1 (win32)

2001-02-02 Thread Steffen Seufert

Hello,

I installed the new version of Lyx (on Win2000), but it hangs (as reported
before in this mailing list) when you first time press a key
on the keyboard.

Everything else works fine when you only use the mouse.

(With Version 1.1.6 there's that problem, too. Version 1.1.5fix2 no
problems.)

As a possible solution there was suggested an upgrade of the x-server.

I tried X-Win32 5.1.1. build2 (demo version) and Winaxe 6.0 (demo version):
The same behaviour.

Has anyone a solution for this problem?

Another thing on Version 1.1.6.fix1 is that the runconfigure.bat doesn't
complete.
It stops at:
"checking latex configuration ... (auto)"

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Bye,
Steffen

Dear fellow LyXers,

LyX has saved me so much time that I am willing to contribute EURO 100 
specifically for this project and restricted to it. However, what 
assurances have we that the funds in fact arrive where they should and 
are used for the intended purposes? Now we are not just talking about 
web security, but about financial controls.

Best regards,

Lucien
