This is ERT, in normal math (i.e. in blue) one could have e.g. functionals
like f{x(t)} but normally I would use big delimiters (M-M {) for this.
Furthermore, IMHO, if { inserts a (blue) {} (similar to: \{ inserts (red){}),
(BTW: it does not in my lyx 1.1.6fix3),
then ( should insert () and [ insert [] to keep consistency.
Personally, I'd prefer the straightforward { inserts a (blue) { and M-M { a
pair of big {}.

I suppose, LyX just doesnot realize/test for changes in included/input parts
(the same holds for graphics: if you just change an *.eps file but leave the
main LyX file untouched, Update-DVI will do nothing.
What happens if you do some change to the LyX-file (other than removing the
\input, e.g. inserting a comment)? Will the changes in the inputted file go
to the DVI?

I totally agree.
I remember a while ago i had to do a presentation together with someone who was used
to kpresenter (part of the koffice suit as it turned out).. When inserting my
formula's a { inserted a pair of {}, a ( a pair of () etc.. But the strange thing:
there was no way i could get nested pairs of bracketing, like f([x,y]) for example..
Personally i like to be able to decide myself which brackets i want to use where and
in what style, so if it were up to me lyx never would automatically place the closing
bracket.
Just my opinion..

It usually does not. The only exceptions I am aware of are {} for TeX
grouping - those _have_ to be paired, there is no point in allowing
unpaired ones, and the suff in DelimInset that translates to
\left...\right. Again, these have to be paired.

Doesn't happen in 1.2 CVS, Mdk 8.1, fortunately. I didn't find anything on this in Bugzilla. Perhaps someone could try to reproduce this in 1.1.6 (not on their latest novel!) and post a bug report.

kluwer and toc
Hi everybody!
I'm starting to write a document with the Kluwer layout. Thank you to "Pit"
and "PAP" for this layout, it saves me a lot of time!
Just one thing I wonder: in the layout, there's the general textclass
parameter
TocDepth 0
It has for effect that the "navigate" menu doesn't contain anything
interesting ("no TOC")
If I change this parameter to 3, I get back my dear navigate menu (it's a so
handy feature)
So, my question: is there any reason to have this parameter set to 0? I mean,
if you want a TOC, you don't want the param to 0, and if you don't include a
TOC in your document, there's no effect (except of disabling the navigate
feature).

For XML to LaTeX translation, db2latex (available in sourceforge) is quite interesting. That's a set of stylesheets that do the job, and it works fine. I can give information about them if someone is interested since that's the base of db2lyx. BG

Hi,
trying to create layout for the document class of the bulletin of
CSTUG (Czech TeX Users' Group), I have hit a problem. Every
article in LaTeX document provided by author (one file may
contain more articles; of course, the reason is, that whole
bulletin is than compiled to one) is enclosed (whole, even
\title, \author, and \maketitle) in special environment clanek
(which is ``article'' in Czech). Something like this:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{csbul} % style of the bulletin itself
\begin{document} \begin{clanek}
\title{something} \author{something}
\podpis{something} % ``podpis'' means ``signature'' and it is
% used for the authors name
and contact
% info in the end of the
article.
\maketitle
\section{...}
...
\end{clanek} \end{document}
I would like to make layout as seamless as possible (remember, it
is for introduction of LyX to {La}TeX community, so I would like
to avoid any ERT) and of course, I cannot change the style itself.
However, when browsing through Customization document, I was not
able to fingure out, how to do this. Any thoughts?
Thanks
Matej

Multi-line eq in table
Hi, I've searched everywhere but couldn't find if it was possible to do a multi-line equation in a table. Is it possible? Every time I try I get errors. Steps to reproduce: - Start new document. - Click tabular button. Make a 1x1 table. - Position the curser into the table. Enter mathed mode. - Make a multi-line eq by pressing Ctrl-Enter. - View the DVI. Thanks, -- Simon Perreault <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Web: http://www.linuxquebec.com/~nomis80 PGP: $Web/nomis80.gpg
