Not so for me, but it probably depends on which class you are using and
which environment for the equation.

Try Edit -> Math -> Toggle numbering of line (Alt-M, Shift-N) to 
number/not number one line.  Edit -> Math -> Toggle numbering (Alt-M N) 
turns numbering on/off for all lines of the equation at once.

The minibuffer is a text input field that lets you enter a LyX command. 
  Alt-X will display the minibuffer at the bottom of the screen. 
(Getting rid of it is not so easy.  In 1.4.4, you can right click an 
empty space in the menu bar and deselect it.  In 1.5.0, you can't even 
do that -- you have to go to the View -> Toolbars to get rid of it. 
IMHO this is going in the wrong direction.)  Watching the status line at 
the bottom of the screen while you perform editing operations is one way 
to learn commands suitable for the minibuffer.

That said, you don't need it to toggle line numbers.  If the cursor is 
in the line you wish to toggle, you can use the menu or shortcut keys above.

Yes, but you'll need to add the ug environment to whatever layout file
you are using. This should be fairly straightforward: You should be able
to copy and paste from layouts/amsmaths.inc, for the most part. Note
that, unfortunately, you have to do this into a completely customized
new layout. So if you're using, say, amsart.layout now, you'll have to
copy that to, say, layouts/myamsart.layout in your local directory;
change the configure line at the beginning, choosing some new name; and
then make your customizations. It's my fervent hope to make this more
modular once 1.5.0 is out: http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2657.

Sure, attached you'll find one. I had to increase the counter before
using it, that's the only difference with the previous pseudo-code

Re: List of items

2007-04-17 Thread Julio Rojas

Finally solved thanks, in part, to the archive of the list. I "forgot"
to add a parameter to the first item in the second subenvironment. The
final result should be:

ERT:\newcounter{saveenum}
(a) Environment "a"
1. 
2.  ERT:\setcounter{saveenum}{\value{enumii}}
(b) Environment "b"
3. ERT:[\number\value{saveenum}]\setcounter{enumii}{\value{saveenum}} 
4. 

Check that you can't use the counter "saveenum" directly, so you have
to convert it into a "number".

Hope this helps someone besides me... ;)

Re: "Multi-Boxed-Table" Float?

2007-04-17 Thread Sam Lewis
Yes it is possible!

I can report it's possible to float (with figure float or text wrap float) a
"Box (Shadowbox)" that contains another "Box (minipage)" containing a table. To
avoid latex errors attention to usage of special formatting features (such as
protect spaces, etc.) might has to be paid though.

Configuring personal dictionary

2007-04-17 Thread Nicolás

Hi!

In Lyx 1.4.4-4 (Windows XP), the option for configuring the personal dictionary does not work. That is, no matter what file is 
specified in the Preferences dialog, LyX always uses the file created under the user's home directory. I know this has been already 
discussed in the list. I just wonder if it is a problem with LyX or a problem with the Aspell installation. And specially, I wonder 
whether this has been addressed in LyX 1.5.

However, the argument for not doing so was that the texmf scanning can take
rather long time, which will slow down reconfiguring.

Cool. For some reason I always went to the subversion.tigris webpage and it
looked to complicated or the LyX webpage went over my head for some reason.
However, that seems very simple. I'm installing svn from Fink Commander
right now. Then I'll get the latest sources and test them out with Qt4.3 and
see how everything works. I'm still on the make command for Qt4.3 so it may
take a while to get everything working. Takes a long time to compile
packages on this old iBook.

Thanks for all the help and tips!!

I have no problem with trying the latest snapshot. I just don't have the
time to figure out how to install svn and use it (seems like it is a little
bit of a process from reading the lyx webpage). I'm trying to write a thesis
at the same time :)

Re: FancyHDR and Horizontal Line

2007-04-17 Thread Stephen Buonopane


I've used fancy header to create decorative lines at the top and  
bottom of pages in a new book, but when I insert Sections first  
thing on my new page (followed by a horizontal line) the white  
space between the header and the section is bigger than the white  
space between the section and the horizontal rule. Ideally, I would  
like to decrease the upper white space, but redefining through  
fancyhdr doesn't seem to be within my grasp.


**Example**

Header: 

Section: Section Title
H.Rule:  


The extra white space above Section is probably associated with the  
Section environment. So you might try redefining the section  
environment, or using a package like "titlesec" which makes it a bit  
easier. A more crude hack might be to add a negative vertical space  
above the section.

It's actually simpler than what you've already done. If you use  
macports, simply enter "sudo port install subversion" and wait until  
it's done. If you use fink (or Fink Commander) it's equally easy.


Then follow the instructions on the lyx webpage, which are  
straightforward:


svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk lyx-devel
cd lyx-devel

Once you've got the sources, you'll need to run ./autogen.sh, then  
configure (with the same options you used for beta1), and make.


To update the sources, simply cd to the lyx-devel directory and enter:

svn up

You can then recompile (usually -- but not always -- skipping  
configure and going straight to make).

Re: version control feature usage problem

'ci' is part of rcs ( http://www.gnu.org/software/rcs/ ).
however, don't know whether this works on win platform.

if i remeber correctly, this part of code went through many changes
in last months. maybe you should upgrade your version of lyx.

Re: Bibliography Styles

2007-04-17 Thread Julio Rojas

That was it, you don't need to reconfigure, but to reread the styles
thru that menu. LOL

A little "hidden" if you aske me. But of course, I'm just an asking
newbie!!! I really thought "Reconfigure" did the trick.

Thanks

Have You installed the styles in ~/texmf/bibtex/bst? This path is
checked when You refresh Your TeX-information (Tools->Check TeX).

Hope this helps.

Insert new line in numbered equation

2007-04-17 Thread Karol Dudzinski
Hi,

 

I have a multiline equation that I would like numbered, but I only want one
number/label for the entire equation.  By default, Lyx numbers each line
separately.  How do I remove the unnecessary numbering?  I have looked
around on Google and the best advice I found is “You can turn off numbering
of a specific line by entering math-nonumber in the minibuffer (below the
main LYX window) while the cursor is on that line of a multi-line numbered
equation.” from HYPERLINK
"http://www.lyx.org/~jug/lyx/lyxdoc/UserGuide/node34.html"http://www.lyx.org
/~jug/lyx/lyxdoc/UserGuide/node34.html but I don’t know what is meant by the
minibuffer? I’m using Lyx 1.4.4 on Windows XP.

 

Thanks,

Karol

Bibliography Styles

2007-04-17 Thread Julio Rojas

Still having the same problem, I installed Elsevier bibliographic
styles thru MikTeX "Browse Package" utility, reconfigured both MikTeX
and LyX, but they don't appear on the bibliography style pulldown
menu.

I know I can browse to get them, but I thought this should be an
"automatic" process after reconfiguration.

Please, help!!!

So you need to test the *SVN* version of LyX. Look at this page for more

Right, 4.3. Qt4.4 is not for now!

with LyX-1.5svn. LyX-1.4.x works only with Qt-3.x.

Yep.

Gotcha :-). Ok, so Qt4.3 just finished compiling and I'm running make right
now. I have the 1.5.0beta1 source ready to compile when it's done, but
looking at the INSTALL.MacOSX I need the LyX/Mac skeleton application bundle
LyX.app. Is there anyway I can get that without figuring out how to install
svn and whatever else I need (some much to learn, so little time)?


If you are not willing to use SVN, I can send you a snapshot of current 
trunk instead. Beta 1 is too old :-)

Re: Mailing list configuration [was: Re: List usage - messages from the wiki]

2007-04-17 Thread Tim Michelsen
FWIW, there seems to be a reply-to-list extension coming for T-bird, but 
it may not go gold until T-bird 3.0 is out 
(http://www.asoftsite.org/s9y/archives/114-thunderbird-+-reply-to-list-...-here-it-comes.html, 
http://alumnit.ca/wiki/index.php?page=ReplyToListThunderbirdExtension).
Yep, I'd already found them but they didn't work for me or were too 
complicated...


Which brings me to my last point.  There's an alternative to subscribing 
to the list, which is to use T-birds news group feature to subscribe to 
the gmane.editors.lyx.general news group at news.gmane.org (port 119). 
(http://search.gmane.org/) for the archive.  Replies go to the newsgroup 
(meaning the list) by default. 
Thanks for that hint. I never used that newsgroup feature. But this will 
help me now to send the mails to the right adress. I'll use that one. 
And it's much easier to take part in discussions.


...and let's get back on the topic.
