Your ndst.sty redefines \title, \author etc. to be used _without_ the
\maketitle command. This interferes with article.cls when LyX inserts the
\maketitle command.
Two solutions:
1. quick and dirty:
insert
\renewcommand\maketitle{}
to your preamble
2. Better:
in your layout file, insert add the end of the file something like (untested)
Style Title
InTitle 0
End
Style Author
InTitle 0

Style Date
InTitle 0

incompatibility of layouts bteween version 1.3 and 1.4
Dear all, First sorry for bothering. I should first check in the archive if my issue was not already discussed, but the webpage of the archived list does not function. Up to recently, i had Lyx 1.3.6 and i used several layout (for mathematics article, with theorem environnments) that i found on internet (they were some months/years ago available on the Lyx webpage). Unfortunately, since i updated to 1.4 version, these old layouts do not function any more. Therefore, the environments of all my old documents are completely messed-up. Nevertheless, i read somewhere that lyx 1.4 should automaticaly update the layouts files. Does anyone have an idea/comment ??

Problems with Bibtex in Lyx
Hello, after writing lots of letters now I am trying to write my first longer piece in Lyx (for a 25 page homework). I use: Lyx 1.4.3. Doc. Class: book (koma-script) A Bibtex File I compiled with JebRef which I have imported as a bibtex reference list (I enabled 'display in TOC') I added citations in my text and they show up nicely in Lyx, but whenever I export them to pdf, it only shows question marks at the point where the citation should be. Also the reference list only shows up in the TOC but not on the page where it is supposed to be. I don't know what I am doing wrong here, as I understand that once I cited something, it should show in the reference list in the document. Further questions I have: The Doc Class I use supports numbered and unnumbered Chapters, also there is something like Chapter (TOC) what is this? Is there some trick to use numbered chapters and unnumbered chapters in the same document? It does not seem to work with me, but I would like it, as I have some Chapters which have to be numbered and some that don't (like an epilogue) How can I switch my userinterface of Lyx back to English (as I am posting here, I am using German - I hope I translated everything right though) Thanks a lot Stefan
Re: Debugging python scripts called by LyX
Giovanni, One of the developers starting experiencing similar symptoms. His post ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) to the developer list suggests that it might be tied to an upgrade from MikTeX 2.4 to 2.5. He thinks it only occurs when trying to update a DVI that yap currently has open. I can't recall the original symptoms you reported, so I'm not sure if this is consistent with your experiments. /Paul

Re: Problems with Bibtex in Lyx
Hallo,
ich antworte mal auf deutsch, denke es ist dir auch recht. Erstmal frage ich
mich, warum du für nur 25 Seiten die Buch-Klasse benutzt, ich würde hier
Artikel nutzen.
Es gibt immer nummerierte und nicht nummerierte Gliederungsebenen, nicht
nummerierte tauchen allerdings nicht im Inhaltsverzeichnis auf. Diese musst
du dann mit dem TeX-Befehl \addcontentsline{toc}{Ebene}{Name} dem
Inhaltsverzeichnis hinzufügen.
Werd ich gleich mal ausprobieren.
Vielleicht hilft es auch, wenn du das für das mit dem Literaturverzeichnis
ausstellst und \addtocontents{toc}{\contensline{section}{Literatur}{10}}
verwendest, statt 10 dann natürlich die Seitennummer, auf der es beginnt. Ist
zwar nicht wirklich schön, aber wird wohl funktionieren. Sind alle deine
Packete auf dem neuesten Stand?
Danke für den Tip mit dem Literaturteil, aber das hat sich geklärt. Es
lag an Leerzeichen in den Pfaden in meiner Lyx Installation unter Windows...
Wie kann ich dem Literaturteil eigentlich eine Kapitelnummer verpassen
(der hat ausgerechnet keine, sollte aber eine haben)
Die Sprache wird glaube ich über die LANG- Variable eingestellt.
Wo finde ich die?
Schöne Grüße,
Nils
Vielen Dank

lyx -windows cd
Hello, i supported an semiar paper for the BA Stuttgart. The aim was to describe what was needet to produce science papers for the BA with lyx/latex. One result of the work was a cd with all Programms you need to work withe windows. These are such programms like miktex, phyton perl an of course lyx and some otherones. For lyx we create a template and style file with helps the studens to work easily with lyx to get got looking papers who fits to the qoute rules wich are obligatory for the students. The work itself was very interesting! Now we want put the cd on a Berlios download-place. This is the reason for this mail. Are there any law issues we have to look for before we can put lyx on this cd ? uwe

caption justification howto?
Hi, I want to change the justification of a float caption from centered to, say, flushleft (aka raggedright). If I do it the naive way via the paragraph settings dialog, Lyx doesn't remember my changes, so that doesn't work. First question: Is that a bug, or is that feature simply not implemented? Shall I file a bug report? Second (almost identical) question: can somebody tell me how to do it in lyx? (With ERT I know how to do it myself, thanks.) Thanks for your help, Sven

HTML export, hyperlink doesn't work in LYX 1.4.3
Hi,
I have compiled LYX 1.4.3 on a redhat Linux machine from source, and have
deleted my previous $home/.lyx directory so it should be like a fresh
installation. The problem is I found that when having inserted some URLs by
Insert-URL..., then View-HTML or export to HTML, the URL never got an
underline, nor is it clickable.
And I found checking the box Generate hyperlink when inserting URL has no
effect on the result. No matter I did it or not, the output Latex file
doesn't change, it always produces a \url{my inserted url string}.
I found an ugly fix that first write \usepackage{html} in document preamble,
and then insert a Latex code box(ERT), writing in it \htmlurl{my url}{desc.
for the link} will produce a clickable hyperlink. However it's so ugly and
it looks like that it should be the intended behavior Insert-URL... should
produce.
Is this a common problem, so a bug in 1.4.3? Or is my setting wrong?
Thanks!
best,
Sam

LyX 1.4.3 and converters
Hi Just compiled LyX to suit Ubuntu/Dapper and have found some things that configure.py has missed 1) It can't find oolatex although its installed as per Synaptic. from configure: checking for a LaTeX - OpenOffice.org converter... +checking for oolatex... no +checking for oolatex.sh... no how can this be fixed? 2) Also w2l is missed even though its in my path checking for an OpenOffice.org - LaTeX converter... +checking for w2l... no a locate finds this here: /home/rd/bin/w2l /home/rd/usr/share/latex/conversion/writer2latex04/w2l how can this be fixed? 3) How can LyX be made to use latex2rtf to convert to rtf? I find the rtf export a lot more efficient and reliable to get a MS word doc than existing export methods eg export to MS Word(html). Latex2rtf embeds the graphics into the file, performs all the cross referencing and bibliography easily. If using the MS Word (html) export, its a huge drama to fix it all to make a doc. Whereas with latex2rtf its a simple matter to convert to a doc. Currently to use latex2rtf I have to export to latex (pdflatex), then open a xterm and then run latex2rtf on the .tex. So its still workable, though I can't see the reason of having a broken export (MSWord-html) when a much better one exists.

Re: Problems with Bibtex in Lyx
Hallo,
ich antworte mal auf deutsch, denke es ist dir auch recht. Erstmal frage ich
mich, warum du für nur 25 Seiten die Buch-Klasse benutzt, ich würde hier
Artikel nutzen.
Es gibt immer nummerierte und nicht nummerierte Gliederungsebenen, nicht
nummerierte tauchen allerdings nicht im Inhaltsverzeichnis auf. Diese musst
du dann mit dem TeX-Befehl \addcontentsline{toc}{Ebene}{Name} dem
Inhaltsverzeichnis hinzufügen.
Werd ich gleich mal ausprobieren.
Vielleicht hilft es auch, wenn du das für das mit dem Literaturverzeichnis
ausstellst und \addtocontents{toc}{\contensline{section}{Literatur}{10}}
verwendest, statt 10 dann natürlich die Seitennummer, auf der es beginnt. Ist
zwar nicht wirklich schön, aber wird wohl funktionieren. Sind alle deine
Packete auf dem neuesten Stand?
Danke für den Tip mit dem Literaturteil, aber das hat sich geklärt. Es
lag an Leerzeichen in den Pfaden in meiner Lyx Installation unter Windows...
Wie kann ich dem Literaturteil eigentlich eine Kapitelnummer verpassen
(der hat ausgerechnet keine, sollte aber eine haben)
Die Sprache wird glaube ich über die LANG- Variable eingestellt.
Wo finde ich die?
Schöne Grüße,
Nils

lyx -windows cd
Hello, i supported an semiar paper for the BA Stuttgart. The aim was to describe what was needet to produce science papers for the BA with lyx/latex. One result of the work was a cd with all Programms you need to work withe windows. These are such programms like miktex, phyton perl an of course lyx and some otherones. For lyx we create a template and style file with helps the studens to work easily with lyx to get got looking papers who fits to the qoute rules wich are obligatory for the students. The work itself was very interesting! Now we want put the cd on a Berlios download-place. This is the reason for this mail. Are there any law issues we have to look for before we can put lyx on this cd ? uwe

caption justification howto?
Hi, I want to change the justification of a float caption from centered to, say, flushleft (aka raggedright). If I do it the naive way via the paragraph settings dialog, Lyx doesn't remember my changes, so that doesn't work. First question: Is that a bug, or is that feature simply not implemented? Shall I file a bug report? Second (almost identical) question: can somebody tell me how to do it in lyx? (With ERT I know how to do it myself, thanks.) Thanks for your help, Sven

HTML export, hyperlink doesn't work in LYX 1.4.3
Hi,
I have compiled LYX 1.4.3 on a redhat Linux machine from source, and have
deleted my previous $home/.lyx directory so it should be like a fresh
installation. The problem is I found that when having inserted some URLs by
Insert-URL..., then View-HTML or export to HTML, the URL never got an
underline, nor is it clickable.
And I found checking the box Generate hyperlink when inserting URL has no
effect on the result. No matter I did it or not, the output Latex file
doesn't change, it always produces a \url{my inserted url string}.
I found an ugly fix that first write \usepackage{html} in document preamble,
and then insert a Latex code box(ERT), writing in it \htmlurl{my url}{desc.
for the link} will produce a clickable hyperlink. However it's so ugly and
it looks like that it should be the intended behavior Insert-URL... should
produce.
Is this a common problem, so a bug in 1.4.3? Or is my setting wrong?
Thanks!
best,
Sam

LyX 1.4.3 and converters
Hi Just compiled LyX to suit Ubuntu/Dapper and have found some things that configure.py has missed 1) It can't find oolatex although its installed as per Synaptic. from configure: checking for a LaTeX - OpenOffice.org converter... +checking for oolatex... no +checking for oolatex.sh... no how can this be fixed? 2) Also w2l is missed even though its in my path checking for an OpenOffice.org - LaTeX converter... +checking for w2l... no a locate finds this here: /home/rd/bin/w2l /home/rd/usr/share/latex/conversion/writer2latex04/w2l how can this be fixed? 3) How can LyX be made to use latex2rtf to convert to rtf? I find the rtf export a lot more efficient and reliable to get a MS word doc than existing export methods eg export to MS Word(html). Latex2rtf embeds the graphics into the file, performs all the cross referencing and bibliography easily. If using the MS Word (html) export, its a huge drama to fix it all to make a doc. Whereas with latex2rtf its a simple matter to convert to a doc. Currently to use latex2rtf I have to export to latex (pdflatex), then open a xterm and then run latex2rtf on the .tex. So its still workable, though I can't see the reason of having a broken export (MSWord-html) when a much better one exists.

Your ndst.sty redefines \title, \author etc. to be used _without_ the
\maketitle command. This interferes with article.cls when LyX inserts the
\maketitle command.
Two solutions:
1. quick and dirty:
insert
\renewcommand\maketitle{}
to your preamble
2. Better:
in your layout file, insert add the end of the file something like (untested)
Style Title
InTitle 0
End
Style Author
InTitle 0
End
Style Date
InTitle 0
End

incompatibility of layouts bteween version 1.3 and 1.4

Up to recently, i had Lyx 1.3.6 and i used several layout (for mathematics article, with theorem environnments) that i found on internet (they were some months/years ago available on the Lyx webpage). Unfortunately, since i updated to 1.4 version, these old layouts do not function any more. Therefore, the environments of all my old documents are completely messed-up. Nevertheless, i read somewhere that lyx 1.4 should automaticaly update the layouts files. Does anyone have an idea/comment ??

Problems with Bibtex in Lyx
Hello, after writing lots of letters now I am trying to write my first longer piece in Lyx (for a 25 page homework). I use: Lyx 1.4.3. Doc. Class: book (koma-script) A Bibtex File I compiled with JebRef which I have imported as a bibtex reference list (I enabled 'display in TOC') I added citations in my text and they show up nicely in Lyx, but whenever I export them to pdf, it only shows question marks at the point where the citation should be. Also the reference list only shows up in the TOC but not on the page where it is supposed to be. I don't know what I am doing wrong here, as I understand that once I cited something, it should show in the reference list in the document. Further questions I have: The Doc Class I use supports numbered and unnumbered Chapters, also there is something like Chapter (TOC) what is this? Is there some trick to use numbered chapters and unnumbered chapters in the same document? It does not seem to work with me, but I would like it, as I have some Chapters which have to be numbered and some that don't (like an epilogue) How can I switch my userinterface of Lyx back to English (as I am posting here, I am using German - I hope I translated everything right though) Thanks a lot Stefan
Re: Debugging python scripts called by LyX
Giovanni, One of the developers starting experiencing similar symptoms. His post (<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) to the developer list suggests that it might be tied to an upgrade from MikTeX 2.4 to 2.5. He thinks it only occurs when trying to update a DVI that yap currently has open. I can't recall the original symptoms you reported, so I'm not sure if this is consistent with your experiments. /Paul

Re: Problems with Bibtex in Lyx
Thanks, your post got me on the right track as it reminded me of a similar problem which I had with LYX: The path to my Temp Directory contained spaces (something LYX seems to be able to handle but LaTeX/MiKTeX don't. Also the Path to my *.bst (BibtexStyle) files contained spaces. I think this is somewhat troublesome as in a windows "out of the box" Lyx installation the default path to the Temp directory always contains spaces (at least in a German environment) as it rests in something like ".../Dokumente und Einstellungen/.../Temp". Also MikTex uses spaces in its default path (so that my *.bst files where at "C:\Programme\MiKTeX 2.5\bibtex\bst" ), even though it is known to cause some problems.
