If you refer to the fact that the header is suppressed for the first page of a
chapter: this is intentional (and is also what you usually find in typeset
books).
If you want to change it, try
\renewcommand*{\chapterpagestyle}{headings}
(but you won't get the chapter title printed in the heading, scan the KOMA

Re: Accents in LyX/Mac
Hi Jens, just to clarify: you don't need multiple _physical_ keyboards: all you need is to go to OS X System Preferences International Input Menu, and check a second keyboard there. I have checked US, British and German. You can also check Dvorak there (that would be most useful with a second physical keyboard, but if you only use this layout you can relatively easily pop out the keys of a laptop and rearrange them...). Then I checked Show in menu bar so I can see which keyboard layout is currently active. Finally check Allow different input method for each Application. That's all. Then you make sure you select (in the menu bar) the layout you want to use immediately (I use US layout mostly). When you turn on LyX, you go back to the menu and switch to British. From what I've observed so far, the keyboard choices you make in any given application stick from then on. No additional voodoo needed. I tried this pssobility on my PC and it did not work. Maybe your solution is Mac specific ? (I didn't find a Dvorak key board in the corresponding section of my kcontrol of KDE.

Re: Changing to an Intel Mac lets Lyx forget settings -- any hints?
Thank you Bennett, it worked. You were right: The Apple transfer program does not transfer any files from an existing TeX installation. I had to run the whole process again, including the redefinition of some converter's flags and other things I had tweaked to suit my needs ... too bad. Since I am using i-installer, I had to search for any remaining ii2-files first to get it to start a Tex installation from scratch (because ii2-files /are /transfered by Apple's transfer program since they're stored in the right places, so i-installer thinks there's still a valid installation and refuses to overwrite). -- Just as a hint for people who may find themselves in a similar situation. Also, it was necessary to move /Library/texmf out of the way first. Finally, I reinstalled Lyx for Intel-Macs and made sure it remembers where I store my stuff. Now I'm fully operational again. --Christian Bennett Helm wrote: On Dec 8, 2006, at 7:50 PM, Christian Liesen wrote: Hi, I've just got myself a new MacBook Pro, which feautures the Intel Core 2 CPUs.

No additional voodoo needed. I tried this pssobility on my PC and it did not work. Maybe your solution is Mac specific ? (I didn't find a Dvorak key board in the corresponding section of my kcontrol of KDE. Thanks for your message nevertheless ;-) Eventually I returned to LyX-1.3.7, I found a SUSE rpm in the internet. I would prefer a gentoo ebuild but didn't find one. If anybody in this list could send me one I would be grateful. At least my problem si solved in a way that i can start working with lyx.

Re: Changing to an Intel Mac lets Lyx forget settings -- any hints?
Thank you Bennett, it worked. You were right: The Apple transfer program does not transfer any files from an existing TeX installation. I had to run the whole process again, including the redefinition of some converter's flags and other things I had tweaked to suit my needs ... too bad. Since I am using i-installer, I had to search for any remaining ii2-files first to get it to start a Tex installation from scratch (because ii2-files /are /transfered by Apple's transfer program since they're stored in the "right" places, so i-installer thinks there's still a valid installation and refuses to overwrite). -- Just as a hint for people who may find themselves in a similar situation. Also, it was necessary to move /Library/texmf out of the way first. Finally, I reinstalled Lyx for Intel-Macs and made sure it remembers where I store my stuff. Now I'm fully operational again. --Christian Bennett Helm wrote: On Dec 8, 2006, at 7:50 PM, Christian Liesen wrote: Hi, I've just got myself a new MacBook Pro, which feautures the Intel Core 2 CPUs. I had a PPC Mac before and transfered all data using the Apple standard feature, i.e. connecting both machines with a firewire cable during setup of the new machine and voila!, everything's there. Both machines had OS X 10.4.8 installed. Now there's something weird about Lyx. I updated to the version for Intel-Macs, but Lyx has forgot about all the settings. It doesn't find a single viewer, nor a single document class -- they're all marked as "unavailable" in the Document Settings dialogue. It does remember my documents, though. I'm a little confused about this and don't know what to do. Do I have to reinstall TeX? Any hints would be highly appreciated. If you haven't installed TeX on your new computer, you'll need to. As far as I know, Apple's transfer program looks at standard Mac directories only -- such as /Users and /Applications. Since TeX gets installed elsewhere, it gets ignored. That means you'll probably want to run the LyX installer again on your new machine -- after you've installed TeX on it. Bennett

I don't have used multiple keyboards so far. Could you give me some clue (or even an cinfig file to have the possibility to use an alternative keybord? Hopefully that would work on my PC to.) Thanks in advance Hellmut I have come to rely on the mini-buffer method: mini-buffer, a, tab, select accent with arrow, enter, letter, enter. Cumbersome, but better than having ERT every other words (as when typing French) After Bennet mentioned that it works for the Dvorak keyboard layout, I tried several others and found that they work: e.g., if you want something like the US layout, you might want to switch to the British layout in the Mac's preferences - with that I have no problems entering accents and umlauts. The nice thing is that you can tell the Mac specifically to use British (e.g.) layout only in LyX, and use your standard layout (e.g., US) everywhere else. Before I became aware of this, I had defined two key map files in LyX, one of which had the accents bound to single key strokes. Then whenever I needed an accent, I switched to that second key map (with a shortcut key, of course), inserted the accented character, and switched back to the primary key map... kind of an ugly hack, so I'm glad Bennett led us to a different workaround. Hi Hellmut, just to clarify: you don't need multiple _physical_ keyboards: all you need is to go to OS X System Preferences > International > Input Menu, and check a second keyboard there. I have checked US, British and German. You can also check Dvorak there (that would be most useful with a second physical keyboard, but if you only use this layout you can relatively easily pop out the keys of a laptop and rearrange them...). Then I checked "Show in menu bar" so I can see which keyboard layout is currently active. Finally check "Allow different input method for each Application". That's all. Then you make sure you select (in the menu bar) the layout you want to use immediately (I use US layout mostly). When you turn on LyX, you go back to the menu and switch to British. From what I've observed so far, the keyboard choices you make in any given application stick from then on. No additional voodoo needed. Jens This is brilliant! I didn't know the British keyboard layout is almost identical to the US--just the British Sterling in place of the American pound. And all accents work! I can work with the British keyboard until 1.5 arrives. Great fix!

It's just not shown by Help. There i found the command-execute command to access the mini-buffer. BUT, unfortunately this does not work for me. putting 'accent-circumflex a' in the minibuffer produces the same strange behaviour of the cursor in my lyx (seemingly a blank + a somewhat bigger white space) as entering '^ a' directly. Trying the same with 'lyx -dbg key' doesn't give more info because what is inputted in the mini-buffer is not traced by the debug function. It doesn't sound like your problem is with the keyboard, rather something to do with missing fonts. I am no developer, but it seems to me Christian is right. If you cannot get the right character on screen after inputting the right function in the mini-buffer, then the keyboard is not to blame. It looks like LyX is not finding the correct glyph to display---i.e. a font problem as Christian suggested. Cheers, Stefano Try lyx -dbg font or possibly lyx -dbg any to get it all. /Christian -- Christian Ridderström, +46-8-768 39 44 http://www.md.kth.se/~chr __ Stefano Franchi Department of Philosophy Ph: (64) 9 373-7599 x83940 University Of Auckland Fax: (64) 9 373-8768 Private Bag 92019 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Auckland New Zealand
class missing
I am new to Lyx (and tetex). I tried to make a new document from a template. Some of the them work fine, but some come up with the error class missing. such as: The document uses a missing TeX class "elsart". LyX will not be able to produce output. I installed the elsart.cls file in /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/amscls/elsart.cls Tools -> TexInformation shows it there. I also did a reconfigure. -- Thomas

I suspect you failed to run texhash after installing elsart.cls. Without that, LyX sees it (hence it's on the TeX Information list), but LaTeX can't use it (hence the no output warning). After running texhash, you'll need to reconfigure LyX again, exit and restart. /Paul
