One solution is to write a small program in C or Perl that prints all
characters, and then copy and paste the correct character in your
document. Type the following in file chars.c:
#include
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
int i;
for (i=32; i<256; i++) putchar(i);
putchar('\n');
return 0;
}
Compile it with command
cc chars.c -o chars
And run with command
./chars
Then just pick up the correct character and paste it into LyX.
Btw, a dialog that would display _all_ possible characters from some
font and the user could pick up them with mouse, would be nice for LyX.

The less obvious way is

force a wrapped float figure to paper right edge
A used the trick shown in "extended features" to make text wrap around a figure. Unfortunately the figure goes just below the section title on the left edge of the paper. It will look unacceptably ugly unless i can get into right edge. Any possibility to do this? Like cheating float package to imagine its odd number pages, not even or something? My article has only one column and it is single-sided. (I wrote a nice article with IEEEtran style but just when I was finished my boss said that I must use his custom latex-template :( Fortunately LyX imported it very well :)

header on title page
Hi, I am writing a document in lyx 1.1.6fix1 using report style. I need to have something like: Technical Report 2001-04-ECE-001 on the right upper corner of the title page. Can this be done in Lyx? If not I will have to do it in StarOffice but then i have to go through page merging issues in the final pdf Thanks in advance -- Remzi Seker Graduate Assistant University of Alabama at Birmingham Electrical and Computer Eng.

If not The first thing I tried was to just write it but apparently the "Title" style forces a page break which makes it a problem. You could not to use the "Title" style but "Standard" and then enlarge, center (vertically and horizontally) and bolden your title. This should get rid of the page break. One option is to use fancyheader package, see http://www.educat.hu-berlin.de/~voss/lyx/fancy/header.html#fancy_1 but then you probably get the text on every page unless the headers can be changed between pages (i don't know if this is possible with fancyheader).
How does float-algorithm work in lyx?
Hi:
I have lyx1.1.6fix1 and.
Anybody has a example about float-algoritm work in lyx?
I read the doc about package {algorithm} but if I work in lyx don't
recognize
commands like \STATE, \COMMENT, \IF, etc.
There is another package called {algoritmic}, Do I need it to work in
Lyx?
Thanks in advanced.

Preformatted text in Lyx
I ma trying to create documentation for my Solaris and Linux boxes
using LyX. For the most part, the combination of LyX and latex2html
is working fine except for one tiny problem.
I need scripts and config files to have indents like:
start() {
# Create keys if necessary
do_rsa1_keygen
do_rsa_keygen
do_dsa_keygen
echo "Starting $prog:"
$SSHD
RETVAL=$?
echo
}
But everything appears right justified even if I use the typewriter
font and the ctrl-space key to insert leading spaces. Is there a fix
for this?
I am using lyx 1.1.6fix1 on Redhat 7.0

Re: Preformatted text in Lyx
OK, answered my own question. I can use Verbatim Input and keep the
preformatted text in a separate file. At least this works with DVI.
I'll have to see later if it produces acceptable html.

Okay. I tried \input but latex wasn't happy. Now I see why. Thanks.

Hyphenization
I have a problem with hyphenization. If I set the language to "Brazil", the hyphenization is a mess. When I set to English, it works fine. But I have to use the labels like in "Brazil". So I have two options : Change all the labels (Introduction, Bibliography, etc) or correct the hyphenization (or even disable it). I prefer the second one. Does anyone know how to do it?

put the cizsor just before the title, insert ctrl-space and
in tex (red) \vspace{3cm} and than ctrl-return.
with \vspace{-3cm} the title moves up.
