\renewcommand*{\chapterheadendvskip}{\vspace*{+/- some value}} 

 Also, is there a way to make the lists look better? I need my document
 to be double spaced and that makes the lists look bad even if I try to
 define each item as single spaced. See attached screen printout of the
 list issues and my need for the chapter title to not have any vertical

It is created by the command \footnoterule,
which you may redefine to do nothing.

\renewcommand{\footnoterule}{}

Perhaps there are better ways too, I don't know.

Often, you can find out by googling a bit, latex and footnote

Re: Upright greek letters in normal text and math mode

Hi,

Maybe the Euler fonts are what you want. They are upright Greek letters.

put:
\usepackage{euler}

in your preamble, and see if you like the result.

 Do the features view/export HTML work in lyx 1.4.2?
 
 They don't work on my lyx 1.4.2 Windows XP with MikTex 2.5 even though 
 htlatex is installed and works via command line.
 
 In html view, I get an error saying lyx can't find the file 
 c:\tmp\lyxtmpdir..\lyx_tmpbuf0\myfile.html

Same message on lyx-1.4.2 Solaris, but the file seems to be moved in
the directory of the document, where I find also all the ancillary files
created by htlatex, e.g for file /tmp/fr_exemple_lyxifie.lyx
- ls /tmp/fr_exemple_lyxifie*
/tmp/fr_exemple_lyxifie.4ct
/tmp/fr_exemple_lyxifie.4tc 
...

In addition, if fr_example_lyxifie.html does exist already, there is no 
overwrite warning,
as export is called by View and not Export.

I guessed the originaldir extra flag in Preferences-Converter-Latex(plain) to 
HTML could
had something to do with this behavior: it is added for htlatex to deal 
correctly
with eps files (fr_exemple_lyxifie has none). If I suppress it, 
the html file is opened by the viewer, but is still created in document dir
(without overwrite warning either). 

IMHO, View-HTML should view in temp file to leave all these ancillary files 
out of the way,
which is the case when I leave the extra flags field empty by removing needaux.

I understand from lyxrc.example that in this case export will fail if there are 
graphic files:
is this still the case ? It seems to work all right on a simple example here.

So the question is: are these flags still needed ? Is there someting wrong with

Re: Upright greek letters in normal text and math mode

Ciao Miki,

thanks for your reply!

To be honest, this is not exactly what I am looking for because all letters in 
math mode now changed their (actual nice) shape and, moreover, are no longer 
italic.

The math panel offers a drop-down list for different text styles, but these DO 
NOT work for greek letters. Usually, the italic letters are fine, but for units 
(e.g. µm) always upright letters should be used. For this reason I would like 
to be able to use upright greek letters in both math mode and standard

Abbreviations ?

[Martin A. Hansen]

I noted a too wide gap after abbriviating Professor - Prof. John Doe

Apparently LateX thinks that the punctuation in the abbreviation is a full
stop and inserts whitespace accordingly - but it looks stupid.

So how does one abbriviate?


Martin

Re: Abbreviations ?

[Christian Liesen]

... well that's simple. In Lyx, choose Insert -- Special Formatting -- 
Inter-word Space after the abbreviation's full stop.


There is also a keyboard shortcut: On a Mac, it is Ctrl + alt + Cmd + 
Space. Check with your keybindings doc.


Cheers,
Christian

1.4.2 mathmode very slow

[Mike Doe]

Since upgrading from 1.3 I have found things to be much slower,
expecially in mathmode or tables:  documents that were fine in 1.3
can be so slow that I can out-type the line very easily.  Selection in
mathmode is also very slow, which makes getting the parts of the
equation you want really irritating.

This is a standard gentoo build.  Is this a known problem: I do not see
a lot of complaints about it on the list, but for me the slowdown since
1.3 is dramatic enough to make me consider reverting.

On native Windows, View - Html, creates myfile.htm and LyX gives
an error message because it it looking for myfile.html.
Formatting is lost. No images are included. (htlatex does run)
This is if your lyx temp dir is in a directory without spaces.

Cygwin doesn't run htlatex. If you run htlatex manually, it
produces myfile.htm which has to be renamed to myfile.html.
Formatting is lost but it will include/display one of many .png images.

IOW, View-Html, is close to completely broken on the Windows platform.

Paragraph spacing of an array caption+label.

[Nicolas Ferré]

Dear all,

If I write the label of an array immediately after the array and if I 
change the paragraph spacing of the caption above the array from the 
default one, a cross-reference to this array label appears in the dvi as 
the section numbering instead of the array numbering. See the minimal 
example attached.


A solution consists in setting the label in the caption paragraph.

Is this a bug or a feature ?

There are no similar macros for those available. You have to redefine 
\section, \subsection etc. E.g.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]@}%
  {-3\baselineskip [EMAIL PROTECTED] -1ex [EMAIL PROTECTED] -.2ex}% -- 3 lines 
of space before
  {2\baselineskip [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- 2 line of space after
  {\setlength{\parfillskip}{\z@ [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1fil}%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Have a look at scrbook.cls for the original definitions.

There are TX fonts and PX fonts (which I think extend Times and Palatino

upright mu.  I don't have them, and I can't find TX on CTAN (but can

For units you want to use the SIunits package (not yet supported natively

IIRC there are also some packages for upright greek letters. They may be

package was updated in 2006. The files are larger and also
correctly named myfile.html when done from the command line.
This is the same experience that Miki Dovrat reported. The
footnote for splash.lyx is created in another html file is the
only problem I notice from file creation from the command line.

Using View-Html with LyX, the output file is misnamed, htm,
the .lg file is much smaller and the .htm is also small in
comparison and unformatted.

Usually, running a tool from the command line and seeing
if it works properly is how to tell if it is the the tool
or LyX. For instance one tests Aspell with Aspell -c badwords.txt
and if it works from the command line but not from LyX, it is
LyX, or Lyx's configuration where the problem resides. Nor does
Cygwin produce the right output from LyX and Cygwin is fully
as capable as Linux in other areas, as far as I know.

Trouble again with instant preview...

[Rudi Gaelzer]

I installed lyx 1.3.7 for the x86_64 architecture  with the rpm packages:
lyx-1.3.7-5.fc3.2.x86_64.rpm
lyx-qt-1.3.7-5.fc3.2.x86_64.rpm

Again, instant preview seems not to be working... 
I got a debug file with lyx -dbg mathed,action 2 lyx_bug.txt, which I'm 
sending along.  The only information I could get from it was:
latex failed to compile 0lyxpreview.tex

Can anyone help me out on this one?  I'm sorry to be bothering you guys again 
with this, but this bug keeps on pestering me...

Re: word counter: feature not usefull for me

[Marcelo Acuña]

   Word counter count words in Notes and ERTs.
   This is not usefull for me.
   I think that command in ERT must not be counted.
   I use notes for reminders, for keep quotes in
  original language for further revision of
 translation,
  and so on.
   Again, count words in notes not make usefull
  information for me.
   What think about this other Lyx´s users? 
 
   
 I agree that skipping notes is the right thing to
 do.

Ok.

 ERT is more tricky, for it is perfectly possible
 to have some words of normal printed text inside
 ERT.
 For example, if you need to do:
 \begin{myhighlight}Special words\end{myhighlight}
 The Special words will print, and should therefore
 be counted.

I not think in this. Is very complex.
 
 Unfortunately, parsing latex in order to get a
 perfect word count
 is hard, so perhaps skipping ERT is the better
 choice.

This work in most of cases.

 The counting issue above may then be avoided by
 having two ERT boxes
 containing the commands only. Between them the
 special words will
 be written as normal text. The downside of this
 approach is that the
 two latex boxes _must_ be matched pairs.  Cutpaste
 errors
 may then leave you with an extra ERT box somewhere,
 which will cause
 odd latex errors when you try to print or preview.
 
 Do you really have so much code in ERT that this is
 a real problem?
 Consider filing bugs at bugzilla.lyx.org.
 
 Helge Hafting
 

 Marc, said that this is in bugzilla.
I posted this question because, when I put problem
with notes and word counter in bugzilla, I received a
mail from Lyx team saying that this behaviour is
rigth.

 Thanks Helge, Marc

This is because the htlatex you are using is a native application expecting
native style paths. Try adding the line
export LYX_WINPATHS=yes
to the file /etc/lyxprofile and you will see that View-Html works (doesn't

Hello Enrico,

I'm pleased to hear from you. Indeed, adding export LYX_WINPATHS=yes
produces nearly the same failure on CygLyX as native WinLyX.

The output file is truncated from myfile.html to myfile.htm which
generated an error message because the viewer is looking for myfile.html

CygLyx does not generate the .pngs for equations that htlatex generates
from the command line. It does get some Greek letters correct. But the
exponent (superscript?) is on the same level as the other letters. Also
what I referred to as 'unformatted' appears upon closer inspection to be
the end-of-line is not respected at it is when htlatex from the command
line is executed in Dos, which does produce myfile.html.

My machine was attacked by a trojan. I had to create another identity.
Cygwin doesn't work for the new identity. Windows cannot access the
specified devive, path or file. You may not have the appropriate
permissions to access the item.

So I completey shared the Cygwin directory and subdirectories and
also C:\home. I ran a couple of commands which created .bashrc
.inputrc and .bash_profile for Tech, the new identity. It will
not work and I have to change users to my original identity (the
trojan finally gave up the ghost). But it is a hassle to have
to switch users to use Cygwin which does work on the original
identity. Your new Cygwin Lyx1.4.2 was very easy to update.
I couldn't find simple instruction to make Tech an admin.
I may not have installed Cygwin for all users, I don't remember.

I'm surprised Html view works for you for Cygwin because I
think (thought) it was LyX not the Cygwin or Win configuration.

As a side note. I spoke to Lalu who got his Phd. in computer
technology. He said the Texas Instruments 89 calculator had
a design 20 years ahead (symbolic) of the TI86 design.

Stephen

Formatting is lost but it will include/display one of many .png images.

IOW, View-Html, is close to completely broken on the Windows platform.


If what I say is true (basically, the lg file cannot run), it's a htlatex
problem rather than a lyx problem. 
I use htlatex coming with proTeXt, may be it has improved since the packaging (nov. 2005) ?




One thing I tried is removing: originaldir,needaux under
Additional flags for the htlatex converter.

That fixed the problem of the html file appearing unformatted/no EOL,
and I no longer got that error message about the filename not ending
with .html (because it was created as .htm).

But still none of the .pngs are created for inclusion (the equations)
into the html output file. htlatex from the command line produces
quite a few .pngs representing the equations for the output .html.

Re: Upright greek letters in normal text and math mode

[Reinhard Mayr aka Czerwinski]

Ciao Miki,

thanks for your reply!

To be honest, this is not exactly what I am looking for because all letters in 
math mode now changed their (actual nice) shape and, moreover, are no longer 
italic.

The math panel offers a drop-down list for different text styles, but these DO 
NOT work for greek letters. Usually, the italic letters are fine, but for units 
(e.g. µm) always upright letters should be used. For this reason I would like 
to be able to use upright greek letters in both math mode and standard 
environment.

Can anyone help or provide a pointer?

Thanks!

Abbreviations ?

I noted a too wide gap after abbriviating Professor - Prof. John Doe

Apparently LateX thinks that the punctuation in the abbreviation is a full
stop and inserts whitespace accordingly - but it looks stupid.

So how does one abbriviate?

Re: Abbreviations ?

... well that's simple. In Lyx, choose Insert -- Special Formatting -- 
Inter-word Space after the abbreviation's full stop.


There is also a keyboard shortcut: On a Mac, it is Ctrl + alt + Cmd +

1.4.2 mathmode very slow

[Mike Doe]

Since upgrading from 1.3 I have found things to be much slower,
expecially in mathmode or tables:  documents that were fine in 1.3
can be so slow that I can out-type the line very easily.  Selection in
mathmode is also very slow, which makes getting the parts of the
equation you want really irritating.

This is a standard gentoo build.  Is this a known problem: I do not see
a lot of complaints about it on the list, but for me the slowdown since
1.3 is dramatic enough to make me consider reverting.

Paragraph spacing of an array caption+label.

Dear all,

If I write the label of an array immediately after the array and if I 
change the paragraph spacing of the caption above the array from the 
default one, a cross-reference to this array label appears in the dvi as 
the section numbering instead of the array numbering. See the minimal 
example attached.


A solution consists in setting the label in the caption paragraph.

Is this a bug or a feature ?

Re: chapter spacing

Thanks for the help, that worked nicely for the chapter vertical space.
Now how to I modify the vertical space for the other sections? I tried
these commands with no success.

\renewcommand*{\othersectionlevelsendvskip}{\vspace*{0pt}}
\renewcommand*{\othersectionlevelsheadendvskip}{\vspace*{0pt}}

Thanks again,

There are no similar macros for those available. You have to redefine 
\section, \subsection etc. E.g.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]@}%
  {-3\baselineskip [EMAIL PROTECTED] -1ex [EMAIL PROTECTED] -.2ex}% -- 3 lines 
of space before
  {2\baselineskip [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- 2 line of space after
  {\setlength{\parfillskip}{\z@ [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1fil}%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Have a look at scrbook.cls for the original definitions.

Ciao Miki,

thanks for your reply!

To be honest, this is not exactly what I am looking for because all letters in

The math panel offers a drop-down list for different text styles, but these DO 
NOT work for greek letters. Usually, the italic letters are fine, but for units

Can anyone help or provide a pointer?



There are TX fonts and PX fonts (which I think extend Times and Palatino 
respectively) that include some upright Greek letters, such as \muup for 
upright mu.  I don't have them, and I can't find TX on CTAN (but can 
find PX), so I'm not sure if these will do what you want.

For units you want to use the SIunits package (not yet supported natively

IIRC there are also some packages for upright greek letters. They may be 
listed on www.texnik.de.

Well, under Miktex2.4 or Miktex2.5(just released) htlatex
works correctly from the command line. I think the htlatex
package was updated in 2006. The files are larger and also
correctly named myfile.html when done from the command line.
This is the same experience that Miki Dovrat reported. The
footnote for splash.lyx is created in another html file is the
only problem I notice from file creation from the command line.

Using View-Html with LyX, the output file is misnamed, htm,
the .lg file is much smaller and the .htm is also small in
comparison and unformatted.

Usually, running a tool from the command line and seeing
if it works properly is how to tell if it is the the tool
or LyX. For instance one tests Aspell with Aspell -c badwords.txt
and if it works from the command line but not from LyX, it is
LyX, or Lyx's configuration where the problem resides. Nor does
Cygwin produce the right output from LyX and Cygwin is fully

Trouble again with instant preview...

Again, instant preview seems not to be working... 
I got a debug file with lyx -dbg mathed,action 2 lyx_bug.txt, which I'm 
sending along.  The only information I could get from it was:

Re: word counter: feature not usefull for me

[Marcelo Acuña]

   Word counter count words in Notes and ERTs.
   This is not usefull for me.
   I think that command in ERT must not be counted.
   I use notes for reminders, for keep quotes in
  original language for further revision of
 translation,
  and so on.
   Again, count words in notes not make usefull
  information for me.
   What think about this other Lyx´s users? 
 
   
 I agree that skipping notes is the right thing to
 do.

Ok.

 ERT is more tricky, for it is perfectly possible
 to have some words of normal printed text inside
 ERT.
 For example, if you need to do:
 \begin{myhighlight}Special words\end{myhighlight}
 The Special words will print, and should therefore
 be counted.

I not think in this. Is very complex.
 
 Unfortunately, parsing latex in order to get a
 perfect word count
 is hard, so perhaps skipping ERT is the better
 choice.

This work in most of cases.

 The counting issue above may then be avoided by
 having two ERT boxes
 containing the commands only. Between them the
 special words will
 be written as normal text. The downside of this
 approach is that the
 two latex boxes _must_ be matched pairs.  Cutpaste
 errors
 may then leave you with an extra ERT box somewhere,
 which will cause
 odd latex errors when you try to print or preview.
 
 Do you really have so much code in ERT that this is
 a real problem?
 Consider filing bugs at bugzilla.lyx.org.

 Marc, said that this is in bugzilla.
I posted this question because, when I put problem
with notes and word counter in bugzilla, I received a
mail from Lyx team saying that this behaviour is
rigth.

This is because the htlatex you are using is a native application expecting
native style paths. Try adding the line
export LYX_WINPATHS=yes
to the file /etc/lyxprofile and you will see that View-Html works (doesn't
work) on Cygwin exactly as it does for a native LyX.

Hello Enrico,

I'm pleased to hear from you. Indeed, adding export LYX_WINPATHS=yes
produces nearly the same failure on CygLyX as native WinLyX.

The output file is truncated from myfile.html to myfile.htm which
generated an error message because the viewer is looking for myfile.html

CygLyx does not generate the .pngs for equations that htlatex generates
from the command line. It does get some Greek letters correct. But the
exponent (superscript?) is on the same level as the other letters. Also
what I referred to as 'unformatted' appears upon closer inspection to be
the end-of-line is not respected at it is when htlatex from the command
line is executed in Dos, which does produce myfile.html.

My machine was attacked by a trojan. I had to create another identity.
Cygwin doesn't work for the new identity. Windows cannot access the
specified devive, path or file. You may not have the appropriate
permissions to access the item.

So I completey shared the Cygwin directory and subdirectories and
also C:\home. I ran a couple of commands which created .bashrc
.inputrc and .bash_profile for Tech, the new identity. It will
not work and I have to change users to my original identity (the
trojan finally gave up the ghost). But it is a hassle to have
to switch users to use Cygwin which does work on the original
identity. Your new Cygwin Lyx1.4.2 was very easy to update.
I couldn't find simple instruction to make Tech an admin.
I may not have installed Cygwin for all users, I don't remember.

I'm surprised Html view works for you for Cygwin because I
think (thought) it was LyX not the Cygwin or Win configuration.

As a side note. I spoke to Lalu who got his Phd. in computer
technology. He said the Texas Instruments 89 calculator had
a design 20 years ahead (symbolic) of the TI86 design.

Best regards,
Stephen

One thing I tried is removing: originaldir,needaux under
Additional flags for the htlatex converter.

That fixed the problem of the html file appearing unformatted/no EOL,
and I no longer got that error message about the filename not ending
with .html (because it was created as .htm).

But still none of the .pngs are created for inclusion (the equations)
into the html output file. htlatex from the command line produces
quite a few .pngs representing the equations for the output .html.

Same message on lyx-1.4.2 Solaris, but the file seems to be moved in
the directory of the document, where I find also all the ancillary files
created by htlatex, e.g for file /tmp/fr_exemple_lyxifie.lyx
-> ls /tmp/fr_exemple_lyxifie*
/tmp/fr_exemple_lyxifie.4ct
/tmp/fr_exemple_lyxifie.4tc 
...

In addition, if fr_example_lyxifie.html does exist already, there is no 
overwrite warning,
as export is called by View and not Export.

I guessed the originaldir extra flag in Preferences->Converter->Latex(plain) to 
HTML could
had something to do with this behavior: it is added for htlatex to deal 
correctly
with eps files (fr_exemple_lyxifie has none). If I suppress it, 
the html file is opened by the viewer, but is still created in document dir
(without overwrite warning either). 

IMHO, View->HTML should view in temp file to leave all these ancillary files 
out of the way,
which is the case when I leave the extra flags field empty by removing needaux.

I understand from lyxrc.example that in this case export will fail if there are 
graphic files:
is this still the case ? It seems to work all right on a simple example here.

So the question is: are these flags still needed ? Is there someting wrong with 
them anyway ?

Re: Abbreviations ?

... well that's simple. In Lyx, choose Insert --> Special Formatting --> 
Inter-word Space after the abbreviation's full stop.


There is also a keyboard shortcut: On a Mac, it is Ctrl + alt + Cmd +

1.4.2 mathmode very slow

[Mike Doe]

Since upgrading from 1.3 I have found things to be much slower,
expecially in mathmode or tables:  documents that were fine in 1.3
can be so slow that I can out-type the line very easily.  Selection in
mathmode is also very slow, which makes getting the parts of the
equation you want really irritating.

This is a standard gentoo build.  Is this a known problem: I do not see
a lot of complaints about it on the list, but for me the slowdown since
1.3 is dramatic enough to make me consider reverting.

Hi,

Do the features view/export HTML work in lyx 1.4.2?

They don't work on my lyx 1.4.2 Windows XP with MikTex 2.5 even though 
htlatex is installed and works via command line.


In html view, I get an error saying lyx can't find the file 
c:\tmp\lyxtmpdir..\lyx_tmpbuf0\myfile.html


Same message on lyx-1.4.2 Solaris, but the file seems to be moved in
the directory of the document, where I find also all the ancillary files
created by htlatex, e.g for file /tmp/fr_exemple_lyxifie.lyx
-> ls /tmp/fr_exemple_lyxifie*
/tmp/fr_exemple_lyxifie.4ct
/tmp/fr_exemple_lyxifie.4tc 
...


In addition, if fr_example_lyxifie.html does exist already, there is no 
overwrite warning,
as export is called by View and not Export.

I guessed the originaldir extra flag in Preferences->Converter->Latex(plain) to 
HTML could
had something to do with this behavior: it is added for htlatex to deal 
correctly
with eps files (fr_exemple_lyxifie has none). If I suppress it, 
the html file is opened by the viewer, but is still created in document dir
(without overwrite warning either). 


IMHO, View->HTML should view in temp file to leave all these ancillary files 
out of the way,
which is the case when I leave the extra flags field empty by removing needaux.

I understand from lyxrc.example that in this case export will fail if there are 
graphic files:
is this still the case ? It seems to work all right on a simple example here.

So the question is: are these flags still needed ? Is there someting wrong with 
them anyway ?



On native Windows, View -> Html, creates myfile.htm and LyX gives
an error message because it it looking for myfile.html.
Formatting is lost. No images are included. (htlatex does run)
This is if your lyx temp dir is in a directory without spaces.

Cygwin doesn't run htlatex. If you run htlatex manually, it
produces myfile.htm which has to be renamed to myfile.html.
Formatting is lost but it will include/display one of many .png images.

IOW, View->Html, is close to completely broken on the Windows platform.

If what I say is true (basically, the lg file cannot run), it's a htlatex
problem rather than a lyx problem. 
I use htlatex coming with proTeXt, may be it has improved since the packaging 
(nov. 2005) ?

Paragraph spacing of an array caption+label.

[Nicolas Ferré]

Dear all,

If I write the label of an array immediately after the array and if I 
change the paragraph spacing of the caption above the array from the 
default one, a cross-reference to this array label appears in the dvi as 
the section numbering instead of the array numbering. See the minimal 
example attached.


A solution consists in setting the label in the caption paragraph.

Is this a bug or a feature ?

Thanks for the help, that worked nicely for the chapter vertical space.
Now how to I modify the vertical space for the other sections? I tried
these commands with no success.

\renewcommand*{\othersectionlevelsendvskip}{\vspace*{0pt}}
\renewcommand*{\othersectionlevelsheadendvskip}{\vspace*{0pt}}

Thanks again,

There are no similar macros for those available. You have to redefine 
\section, \subsection etc. E.g.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]@}%
  {-3\baselineskip [EMAIL PROTECTED] -1ex [EMAIL PROTECTED] -.2ex}% <-- 3 lines 
of space before
  {2\baselineskip [EMAIL PROTECTED] <-- 2 line of space after
  {\setlength{\parfillskip}{\z@ [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1fil}%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Have a look at scrbook.cls for the original definitions.

Re: Upright greek letters in normal text and math mode

Ciao Miki,

thanks for your reply!

To be honest, this is not exactly what I am looking for because all letters in 
math mode now changed their (actual nice) shape and, moreover, are no longer 
italic.

The math panel offers a drop-down list for different text styles, but these DO 
NOT work for greek letters. Usually, the italic letters are fine, but for units 
(e.g. µm) always upright letters should be used. For this reason I would like 
to be able to use upright greek letters in both math mode and standard 
environment.

Can anyone help or provide a pointer?



There are TX fonts and PX fonts (which I think extend Times and Palatino 
respectively) that include some upright Greek letters, such as \muup for 
upright mu.  I don't have them, and I can't find TX on CTAN (but can 
find PX), so I'm not sure if these will do what you want.

For units you want to use the SIunits package (not yet supported natively 
by LyX, but it works fine with ERT).

IIRC there are also some packages for upright greek letters. They may be 
listed on www.texnik.de.

Well, under Miktex2.4 or Miktex2.5(just released) htlatex
works correctly from the command line. I think the htlatex
package was updated in 2006. The files are larger and also
correctly named myfile.html when done from the command line.
This is the same experience that Miki Dovrat reported. The
footnote for splash.lyx is created in another html file is the
only problem I notice from file creation from the command line.

Using View->Html with LyX, the output file is misnamed, htm,
the .lg file is much smaller and the .htm is also small in
comparison and unformatted.

Usually, running a tool from the command line and seeing
if it works properly is how to tell if it is the the tool
or LyX. For instance one tests Aspell with Aspell -c badwords.txt
and if it works from the command line but not from LyX, it is
LyX, or Lyx's configuration where the problem resides. Nor does
Cygwin produce the right output from LyX and Cygwin is fully
as capable as Linux in other areas, as far as I know.

Trouble again with instant preview...

lyx-qt-1.3.7-5.fc3.2.x86_64.rpm

Again, instant preview seems not to be working... 
I got a debug file with "lyx -dbg mathed,action 2> lyx_bug.txt", which I'm 
sending along.  The only information I could get from it was:
"latex failed to compile 0lyxpreview.tex"

Can anyone help me out on this one?  I'm sorry to be bothering you guys again 
with this, but this bug keeps on pestering me...

This is because the htlatex you are using is a native application expecting
native style paths. Try adding the line
export LYX_WINPATHS=yes
to the file /etc/lyxprofile and you will see that View->Html works (doesn't
work) on Cygwin exactly as it does for a native LyX.

Hello Enrico,

I'm pleased to hear from you. Indeed, adding "export LYX_WINPATHS=yes"
produces nearly the same failure on CygLyX as native WinLyX.

The output file is truncated from myfile.html to myfile.htm which
generated an error message because the viewer is looking for myfile.html

CygLyx does not generate the .pngs for equations that htlatex generates
from the command line. It does get some Greek letters correct. But the
exponent (superscript?) is on the same level as the other letters. Also
what I referred to as 'unformatted' appears upon closer inspection to be
the end-of-line is not respected at it is when htlatex from the command
line is executed in Dos, which does produce myfile.html.

My machine was attacked by a trojan. I had to create another identity.
Cygwin doesn't work for the new identity. "Windows cannot access the
specified devive, path or file. You may not have the appropriate
permissions to access the item."

So I completey shared the Cygwin directory and subdirectories and
also C:\home. I ran a couple of commands which created .bashrc
.inputrc and .bash_profile for Tech, the new identity. It will
not work and I have to change users to my original identity (the
trojan finally gave up the ghost). But it is a hassle to have
to switch users to use Cygwin which does work on the original
identity. Your new Cygwin Lyx1.4.2 was very easy to update.
I couldn't find simple instruction to make "Tech" an admin.
I may not have installed Cygwin for all users, I don't remember.

I'm surprised Html view works for you for Cygwin because I
think (thought) it was LyX not the Cygwin or Win configuration.

As a side note. I spoke to Lalu who got his Phd. in computer
technology. He said the Texas Instruments 89 calculator had
a design 20 years ahead (symbolic) of the TI86 design.

Best regards,
Stephen

One thing I tried is removing: originaldir,needaux under
Additional flags for the htlatex converter.

That fixed the problem of the html file appearing unformatted/no EOL,
and I no longer got that error message about the filename not ending
with .html (because it was created as .htm).

But still none of the .pngs are created for inclusion (the equations)
into the html output file. htlatex from the command line produces
quite a few .pngs representing the equations for the output .html.

Stephen
