Hmmm, Perhaps you could make a new environment for this type of numbering, and have the new environment use *its own counter*. Have the environment *not* reset the counter, but instead have a command to restart the counter. There are probably easier ways to do it, but the way suggested in the preceding paragraph might have the adaptability you're looking for. SteveT > > On 4/15/07, David L.

Re: My LyX seems broken
Elver, I'm not knowledgeable enough to solve your problem, but I'm using 1.4.3 (running Xandros) and did a little editing of your file (selecting text with shift-arrow keys) and then Ctrl-S saving it, and that worked fine. There's a slight chance this information may be useful to you. Very slight... but here it is. -- --John Registered Linux User #291592
Re: ongoing numbered list?
Hi, sorry about asking an old question. I honestly didn't know what to look for since it was hard to explain! I'm still a little confused about it even after reading the wiki and that page. Is there any way I could just put in a little ERT somewhere and have the lists still be displayed in LyX as numbered lists (I don't care if the numbers look wrong, I just want it to still look like lists or I will get confused with formatting and spell checking) On 4/14/07, Christian Liesen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi, this has been discussed several times on this list.

Re: extra white line in text when inserting a float?
Pieter Bos wrote: Hello, in lyx 1.4.4 in windows when inserting a float in between two paragraphs, some whitespace is added between the two paragraphs, where normally just an indentation would be present for a new paragraph. I think this can be contributed to the fact that first an enter is given after the paragraph end, then another one after the float? i'm using the koma-script report class. anyway, how do i get rid of this? Pieter I don't know offhand how to eliminate the space by default. If you only squeeze floats between paragraphs occasionally, you can fix it on a case-by-case basis using vertical space (assuming that you are positioning the floats "here definitely"). Put the cursor at the start of the paragraph following the float, select Insert -> Special Formatting -> Vertical Space ..., change Spacing to Custom, make the value -2 and the units ex. (You can experiment with the value to meet your taste. This looks about right to my eye, but my eye is notoriously unreliable.) /Paul

The solution outlined at the following post http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg13747.html This link is dead, so I'm not sure what solution you mean. I'm guessing it's just to select the table contents and use the text style button/menu option to change the text size. Doesn't change anything in my PS output. What do I have to select before changing the font size? The whole float with the table or just the table? Just the table contents. May someone please indicate me how I efficiently change that font size for a while table? Click *in* the top left cell (at the start of the text in that cell), drag to highlight the entire content of the table, then use the text style tool button or Edit -> Text Style... to change the font size. Note that this will not change the caption size. Clicking outside the table and dragging to highlight it does not work. You have to click inside the table. I'm not sure, but users in the southern hemisphere may have to click at the end of the bottom right cell and drag to the top left. ;-) /Paul

I don't know what lyx version this matches (I don't have the ability to compile lyx myself at the moment) I can switch keyboard using f12 but I still get English letters as input. They come out as Hebrew after compile but they don't match the keys I used. In Hebrew keyboard mode, if I also change the system input (which would have been the preferred method in the first place so I don't need different keys for different programs) I see Hebrew letters, although they are written left to right instead of right to left. The words are in the right order though and the output is the correct (but this requires two operations to switch language AND the text in lyx is not right). When I open a Hebrew document written with lyx 1.4 the text compiles fine but again in lyx shows in the wrong order, letters are flipped left to right but the words themselves are in the right order. > Dov > > Miki Dovrat wrote: > > Yes, > > > > I already filed bugs on these issues prior to the beta release. > > > > Miki > > > > "Micha Feigin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in > > message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >> I tried lyx 1.5.0beta1 on my linux system and I ran into two problems: > >> > >> changing the keyboard doesn't work (it continues to write in english on > >> screen > >> despite doing something else in the output). > >> > >> right to left text apears left to right > >> > >> Anyone else notice that also? > >> > > > > > > > > >
My LyX seems broken
Hiya!
I've been using LyX for years now and, um, the latest versions seem to
be broken on Ubuntu. I tried the latest version available on Feisty,
then 1.5.0 beta 1 compiled from source, but the bugs are exactly the
same.
The document class I'm using is "hollywood" for typesetting a
screenplay. Here's what goes wrong:
1. ctrl+s does not save. In the beta it inserts a weird symbol that
looks like a sperm.
2. The "right address" portion of the document does not show up in the
final pdf. I've tried different combinations of pdf readers and pdf
exporters. Also, the key combo for the "right address" layout does not
work. (meta+z, r) It says: "Layout Right_Address not known." (I'm
including the standard bindings for the document class from
/usr/share/lyx/bind/hollywood.bind)
3. The "parenthetical" layout type used to be one where it entered a
"(" in front of the text and ")" at the end. Now it just puts "(" in
the front.
4. It's not possible to select text using shift and arrow keys. Mouse
selection works.
5. Various hotkey combinations like for the non-terminating dot or the
non-breaking space don't work.
6. Page break after the "right address" portion only renders on the
right side of the page. Indeed, it seems to be a block of text in the
editor, rather than a long, page-spanning line.
I've attached an example of a problematic file as well.

where is lyxport gone to?
Hello, I just checked on the doanload page and wondered whether someone mirrored the script "lyxport". It can't be found on http://www-hep.colorado.edu/~fperez/lyxport/ anymore. lyxport is a Perl script which takes a LyX or TeX file as its only argument (with or without extension) and produces HTML, PostScript and PDF versions of the document. The name is short for "lyx export". Thanks & greetings, Timmie
