references between child documents
Hi, I'm using Lyx for a few weeks and have a few child documents. I'd like to reference a Chapter of child document A in child document B. I've a label in the chapter of child document A the one I want to reference. I've tried to use latex package xr but without positive results (probably I did it wrong in document LaTeX preamble). Can you help in making this work? Thanks, Joao

In the Insert reference window, you can then choose in a drop-down box the document that contains the label you want to refer to.

Number an equation according to a previous equation's number
Hello, I would like to achieve the following example. Assume I number a given equation in a LyX document with the tag eq:property and the resulting number is n. Then after some text and equations, I put a slightly modified version of eq:property. How can I number the last equation n' ? Thank you for your answer. -- Renaud Lacour [EMAIL PROTECTED]

OK, lets have a look, there are 2 scrartcl.cls on my HD with
different items:
1. in /usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-dist/tex/latex/koma-script/

- it has: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/07/30 v2.95b KOMA-Script}%
which seems outdatet, BUT
2. in home ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/koma-script/scrartcl.cls
- that says: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/12/24 v2.98 KOMA-Script}%
You can add \listfiles to the preamble, then the version numbers
will appear
at the end of you LaTeX log file.
== Result: the first entries are:
scrlttr2.cls2007/12/24 v2.98 KOMA-Script document class (letter)
scrkbase.sty2007/12/24 v2.98 KOMA-Script package (basics and
keyval use)
So I hopefully suppose that LyX/LaTeX use(s) the newer v2.98 KOMA-
Script version, but nevertheless my koma-letter2.lyx template does
not run and should be corrected. It seems to me, that, in this
template, Class Options mostly begin with a comma (,) - in order to
get the options - even after different out- and uncommenting by the
user - within the \KOMAoptions{} command comma-seperated, but my
given template
= in ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.5/templates/default
the first option (not commented out in the template) begins with a
comma:
,fromalign=center% alignment of the address
and causes the latex-error.
As another workarround (after the first aid of Jürgen) I uncommented
the pagenumber=... option two lines before in the template -
interesting: the first one of the outcommented options without a
comma before (because uncommenting it was the first intention of the
template authors?)! -This gives anyway a good solution, because
nevertheless the pagenumber will only be typesetted if the letter has
more than one page (and then only beginning with page 2), and in that
case it normally should be wanted by the author of a letter.
Now, also in LyX this part of my KOMA-letter2 template preamble looks
like
%% THE CLASS OPTIONS
%% Remove preceeding '%' to uncomment an item
\KOMAoptions{%
%,headsepline=true% separate the header with a line on page 1
%,footsepline=true% separate the footer with a line on page 1
%pagenumber=botcenter% position of the page number (see docu)
%,parskip=false% Use indent instead of skip (more options cf. docu)
,fromalign=center% alignment of the address
,fromrule=aftername% separate the address with a line?
,fromphone=true% print sender phone number
%,fromfax=true% print sender fax number
%, and so on and so forth...
}
With this, the template works as it is (so that everytime I call it
with file | new from template ... I am free to choose other options.
Bad luck: only after working on this answer I detected that in the
KOMA-letter2.lyx template within the LyX-application packet (in: /
Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/templates/
there is a functioning KOMA-letter2-template. pagenumber= is still
commented out, but the first uncommented option (here: fromalign=)
begins without comma. So, this template would work too. Might be that
I, after upgrading LyX, had missed/failed to copy the templates newly
into my home-template-folder. Perhaps I should test this with other
disfunctioning lyx templates, too (when needed)...
Howsoever, the KOMA-letter2.lyx template now works correct on my
computer!

Thank you for your answer.
Inside the new equation, type \tag and hit the space bar to get a blue
widget. In the widget, insert a cross reference to eq:property,
followed by a single quote. You need to load the AMS math package; if
you have LyX set to load it automatically, that will work (LyX will see
the \tag and load the package).
If you want a better looking prime, you can try the following:
\tag{\ensuremath{\ref{eq:property}^{\prime}}}
Again, type \tag followed by space. Inside that, type \ensuremath
followed by space. LyX will not recognize this as a command, so you
have to type \{ followed by space to get the braces for it. Inside
those braces, insert the cross-reference followed by \prime in a
superscript. I'm not sure whether this changes the font used for the
equation numerals, though.

eps to pdf converter/eps preview
Hi. I have an issue with previewing EPS files. I've seen in the list's archives similar problems, but I think I'm missing something. I have an EPS diagram generated by Metapost from a Dia diagram. When I include the generated EPS image, the document is generated correctly by latex + dvipdf or latex + dvips + ps2pdf (but not by pdflatex.) Yet I get the typical Unable to convert to loadable format in the LyX preview. What is strange is that I do have the converter from Imagemagick and epstopdf installed. When I run these I get an error from ghostscript (below.) Both seem to complain about cmmi10, but I don't know what this is: a missing font? If so, why doesn't latex complain about it? What can I do about it? By the way, imagemagick's converter gives me this error: convert: Postscript delegate failed `ex1v2.eps': No such file or directory. but the file is there...

What is the best way to upgrade to LyX 1.6?

Re: Reprinted material
killermike wrote: This is something I have have often wondered about too. For example, if you have a book that was written in 1600 but your copy is a 1976 paperback, what do you put for the date? That's part of the protocol you're using for citing sources, which is a question for you and your editor(s), if any. Some disciplines have particular conventions, which are often formalized in style guides. In MLA style, for example, works are sometimes cited using the actual printing date, with the first-publication date in square brackets: 1976 [1600]. That's because minute details of the text are sometimes important in literary and textual studies, and typographical errors, spelling changes, and the like can be introduced in subsequent printings. (Sometimes there are even bigger changes; James apparently rewrote the ending to _Daisy Miller_ at some point between editions, so there are two versions of the novel out there.) What it comes down to, though, is that there are no natural rules for how to cite anything. There are more-or-less arbitrary rules created by various publishing houses, professional organizations, journals, editors, and the like; there are guidelines and style guides; there are the whims of individuals. So no one can give you a universal rule for a specific sort of citation. It depends on who's going to be reading it, and what they'll accept. -- Michael Wojcik Micro Focus Rhetoric Writing, Michigan State University

You can find it e.g. in $TEXMF/tex/latex/koma-script/scrartcl.cls:

OK, lets have a look, there are 2 scrartcl.cls on my HD with
different items:
1. in /usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-dist/tex/latex/koma-script/
scrartcl.cls
- it has: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/07/30 v2.95b KOMA-Script}%
which seems outdatet, BUT
2. in home ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/koma-script/scrartcl.cls
- that says: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/12/24 v2.98 KOMA-Script}%
You can add \listfiles to the preamble, then the version numbers
will appear
at the end of you LaTeX log file.
== Result: the first entries are:
scrlttr2.cls2007/12/24 v2.98 KOMA-Script document class (letter)
scrkbase.sty2007/12/24 v2.98 KOMA-Script package (basics and
keyval use)
So I hopefully suppose that LyX/LaTeX use(s) the newer v2.98 KOMA-
Script version, but nevertheless my koma-letter2.lyx template does
not run and should be corrected. It seems to me, that, in this
template, Class Options mostly begin with a comma (,) - in order to
get the options - even after different out- and uncommenting by the
user - within the \KOMAoptions{} command comma-seperated, but my
given template
= in ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.5/templates/default
the first option (not commented out in the template) begins with a
comma:
,fromalign=center% alignment of the address
and causes the latex-error.
As another workarround (after the first aid of Jürgen) I uncommented
the pagenumber=... option two lines before in the template -
interesting: the first one of the outcommented options without a
comma before (because uncommenting it was the first intention of the
template authors?)! -This gives anyway a good solution, because
nevertheless the pagenumber will only be typesetted if the letter has
more than one page (and then only beginning with page 2), and in that
case it normally should be wanted by the author of a letter.
Now, also in LyX this part of my KOMA-letter2 template preamble looks
like
%% THE CLASS OPTIONS
%% Remove preceeding '%' to uncomment an item
\KOMAoptions{%
%,headsepline=true% separate the header with a line on page 1
%,footsepline=true% separate the footer with a line on page 1
%pagenumber=botcenter% position of the page number (see docu)
%,parskip=false% Use indent instead of skip (more options cf. docu)
,fromalign=center% alignment of the address
,fromrule=aftername% separate the address with a line?
,fromphone=true% print sender phone number
%,fromfax=true% print sender fax number
%, and so on and so forth...
}
With this, the template works as it is (so that everytime I call it
with file | new from template ... I am free to choose other options.
Bad luck: only after working on this answer I detected that in the
KOMA-letter2.lyx template within the LyX-application packet (in: /
Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/templates/
there is a functioning KOMA-letter2-template. pagenumber= is still
commented out, but the first uncommented option (here: fromalign=)
begins without comma. So, this template would work too. Might be that
I, after upgrading LyX, had missed/failed to copy the templates newly
into my home-template-folder. Perhaps I should test this with other
disfunctioning lyx templates, too (when needed)...
Howsoever, the KOMA-letter2.lyx template now works correct on my
computer!

Thank you for your answer.
Inside the new equation, type \tag and hit the space bar to get a blue
widget. In the widget, insert a cross reference to eq:property,
followed by a single quote. You need to load the AMS math package; if
you have LyX set to load it automatically, that will work (LyX will see
the \tag and load the package).
If you want a better looking prime, you can try the following:
\tag{\ensuremath{\ref{eq:property}^{\prime}}}
Again, type \tag followed by space. Inside that, type \ensuremath
followed by space. LyX will not recognize this as a command, so you
have to type \{ followed by space to get the braces for it. Inside
those braces, insert the cross-reference followed by \prime in a
superscript. I'm not sure whether this changes the font used for the
equation numerals, though.

eps to pdf converter/eps preview
Hi. I have an issue with previewing EPS files. I've seen in the list's archives similar problems, but I think I'm missing something. I have an EPS diagram generated by Metapost from a Dia diagram. When I include the generated EPS image, the document is generated correctly by latex + dvipdf or latex + dvips + ps2pdf (but not by pdflatex.) Yet I get the typical Unable to convert to loadable format in the LyX preview. What is strange is that I do have the converter from Imagemagick and epstopdf installed. When I run these I get an error from ghostscript (below.) Both seem to complain about cmmi10, but I don't know what this is: a missing font? If so, why doesn't latex complain about it? What can I do about it? By the way, imagemagick's converter gives me this error: convert: Postscript delegate failed `ex1v2.eps': No such file or directory. but the file is there...

What is the best way to upgrade to LyX 1.6?
Hi all, I am using LyX 1.5.5 and would like to upgrade to 1.6. What is the best way to do this?

Re: Reprinted material
killermike wrote: This is something I have have often wondered about too. For example, if you have a book that was written in 1600 but your copy is a 1976 paperback, what do you put for the date? That's part of the protocol you're using for citing sources, which is a question for you and your editor(s), if any. Some disciplines have particular conventions, which are often formalized in style guides. In MLA style, for example, works are sometimes cited using the actual printing date, with the first-publication date in square brackets: 1976 [1600]. That's because minute details of the text are sometimes important in literary and textual studies, and typographical errors, spelling changes, and the like can be introduced in subsequent printings. (Sometimes there are even bigger changes; James apparently rewrote the ending to _Daisy Miller_ at some point between editions, so there are two versions of the novel out there.) What it comes down to, though, is that there are no natural rules for how to cite anything. There are more-or-less arbitrary rules created by various publishing houses, professional organizations, journals, editors, and the like; there are guidelines and style guides; there are the whims of individuals. So no one can give you a universal rule for a specific sort of citation. It depends on who's going to be reading it, and what they'll accept. -- Michael Wojcik Micro Focus Rhetoric Writing, Michigan State University

You can find it e.g. in $TEXMF/tex/latex/koma-script/scrartcl.cls:

OK, lets have a look, there are 2 scrartcl.cls on my HD with
different items:
1. in /usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-dist/tex/latex/koma-script/
scrartcl.cls
- it has: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/07/30 v2.95b KOMA-Script}%
which seems outdatet, BUT
2. in home ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/koma-script/scrartcl.cls
- that says: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/12/24 v2.98 KOMA-Script}%
You can add \listfiles to the preamble, then the version numbers
will appear
at the end of you LaTeX log file.
==> Result: the first entries are:
scrlttr2.cls2007/12/24 v2.98 KOMA-Script document class (letter)
scrkbase.sty2007/12/24 v2.98 KOMA-Script package (basics and
keyval use)
So I hopefully suppose that LyX/LaTeX use(s) the newer v2.98 KOMA-
Script version, but nevertheless my koma-letter2.lyx template does
not run and should be corrected. It seems to me, that, in this
template, Class Options mostly begin with a comma (,) - in order to
get the options - even after different out- and uncommenting by the
user - within the \KOMAoptions{} command comma-seperated, but my
given template
=> in ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.5/templates/default
the first option (not commented out in the template) begins with a
comma:
,fromalign=center% alignment of the address
and causes the latex-error.
As another workarround (after the first aid of Jürgen) I uncommented
the "pagenumber=..." option two lines before in the template -
interesting: the first one of the outcommented options without a
comma before (because uncommenting it was the first intention of the
template authors?)! -This gives anyway a good solution, because
nevertheless the pagenumber will only be typesetted if the letter has
more than one page (and then only beginning with page 2), and in that
case it normally should be wanted by the author of a letter.
Now, also in LyX this part of my KOMA-letter2 template preamble looks
like
%% THE CLASS OPTIONS
%% Remove preceeding '%' to uncomment an item
\KOMAoptions{%
%,headsepline=true% separate the header with a line on page >1
%,footsepline=true% separate the footer with a line on page >1
%pagenumber=botcenter% position of the page number (see docu)
%,parskip=false% Use indent instead of skip (more options cf. docu)
,fromalign=center% alignment of the address
,fromrule=aftername% separate the address with a line?
,fromphone=true% print sender phone number
%,fromfax=true% print sender fax number
%, and so on and so forth...
}
With this, the template works as it is (so that everytime I call it
with "file | new from template ..." I am free to choose other options.
Bad luck: only after working on this answer I detected that in the
KOMA-letter2.lyx template within the LyX-application packet (in: /
Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/templates/
there is a functioning KOMA-letter2-template. "pagenumber=" is still
commented out, but the first uncommented option (here: "fromalign=")
begins without comma. So, this template would work too. Might be that
I, after upgrading LyX, had missed/failed to copy the templates newly
into my home-template-folder. Perhaps I should test this with other
disfunctioning lyx templates, too (when needed)...
Howsoever, the KOMA-letter2.lyx template now works correct on my
computer!

How can I number the last equation "n'" ?
Thank you for your answer.
Inside the new equation, type \tag and hit the space bar to get a blue
widget. In the widget, insert a cross reference to eq:property,
followed by a single quote. You need to load the AMS math package; if
you have LyX set to load it automatically, that will work (LyX will see
the \tag and load the package).
If you want a better looking prime, you can try the following:
\tag{\ensuremath{\ref{eq:property}^{\prime}}}
Again, type \tag followed by space. Inside that, type \ensuremath
followed by space. LyX will not recognize this as a command, so you
have to type \{ followed by space to get the braces for it. Inside
those braces, insert the cross-reference followed by \prime in a
superscript. I'm not sure whether this changes the font used for the
equation numerals, though.

eps to pdf converter/eps preview
Hi. I have an issue with previewing EPS files. I've seen in the list's archives similar problems, but I think I'm missing something. I have an EPS diagram generated by Metapost from a Dia diagram. When I include the generated EPS image, the document is generated correctly by latex + dvipdf or latex + dvips + ps2pdf (but not by pdflatex.) Yet I get the typical "Unable to convert to loadable format" in the LyX preview. What is strange is that I do have the converter from Imagemagick and epstopdf installed. When I run these I get an error from ghostscript (below.) Both seem to complain about cmmi10, but I don't know what this is: a missing font? If so, why doesn't latex complain about it? What can I do about it? By the way, imagemagick's converter gives me this error: "convert: Postscript delegate failed `ex1v2.eps': No such file or directory." but the file is there...

What is the best way to upgrade to LyX 1.6?
Hi all, I am using LyX 1.5.5 and would like to upgrade to 1.6. What is the best way to do this? Should I *un*install 1.5.5 and then install 1.6, or just upload the new, install it, and it will erase the old? Or, finally, should I wait a bit longer for another 1.6 version to come, which is better then the LyX 1.6.0rc2. Thanks, Erez

On Mac, the installer creates a separate user-directory for 1.6, keeping the 1.5 user directory untouched (and the right one is used automatically). Just give the 1.6-application a different name (e.g. LyX16.app), and the two versions happily co-exist. And: James' warnings DO apply! /Konrad P.S.

That's part of the protocol you're using for citing sources, which is a question for you and your editor(s), if any. Some disciplines have particular conventions, which are often formalized in style guides. In MLA style, for example, works are sometimes cited using the actual printing date, with the first-publication date in square brackets: "1976 [1600]". That's because minute details of the text are sometimes important in literary and textual studies, and typographical errors, spelling changes, and the like can be introduced in subsequent printings. (Sometimes there are even bigger changes; James apparently rewrote the ending to _Daisy Miller_ at some point between editions, so there are two versions of the novel out there.) What it comes down to, though, is that there are no natural rules for how to cite anything. There are more-or-less arbitrary rules created by various publishing houses, professional organizations, journals, editors, and the like; there are guidelines and style guides; there are the whims of individuals. So no one can give you a universal rule for a specific sort of citation. It depends on who's going to be reading it, and what they'll accept. -- Michael Wojcik Micro Focus Rhetoric & Writing, Michigan State University
