citations in revtex4
Hello, I am trying to write a paper with revtex4, and Lyx version 1.5.6 on CentOS 5.2 Linux. I am having trouble with citations. In fact the standard revtex4 template file, revtex4.lyx, has this problem. The citation appears in the text like: (author?) [1] -- where (author?) appears in bold. I believe the error is because LyX is calling for the \citet{} command, which is an (Author-year) style of citation. I have tried to change that by tweaking options in Document->Settings->Bibliography, but that doesn't seem to work either. Any help would be appreciated. NB

Index Problem on XP
I can't get the LyX Index functionality to work. Am doing this in Windows XP. When I use pdflatex, the typeset doc displays as it should, but with no Index. I've inserted Index List as the last statement in my LyX doc. I figured out a .idx file is created and then used subsequently to create a .ind file. I searched for, and found the .idx file, but couldn't find the .ind file: C:\Documents and Settings\Jim\Local Settings\lyx_tmpdir1208a00992\lyx_tmpbuf0\newfile1.idx The lyx_tmpbuf0 directory also contained several other files, including newfile1.log. It contained a statement "no newfile1.ind". I've saved all newfile1.* files associated with this issue: newfile1.lyx newfile1.aux newfile1.idx newfile1.ilg newfile1.log newfile1.pdf newfile1.tex newfile1.tex.dep-pdf Thanks, Jim E-mail message checked by Spyware Doctor (5.5.1.322) Database version: 5.10870e http://www.pctools.com/en/spyware-doctor/
Import utf8 latex on MacOS
Hi all I have a LaTeX file created with TexMate and saved with "UTF8(recommended)" When I import this file into Lyx, I get anything but cyrillic in my text: http://images.dmitriid.com/misc/tex/lyx.png (top of screenshot is what it shouldve looked like and bottom of the picture is what it looks like in Lyx) My settings for Lyx are: Default language: English Language package: \usepackage[english,russian]{babel} TeX encoding: T2A And for the document I tried everything: language Russian, default encoding, utf8 - nothing works :( I know that this issue has supposedly been fixed in 1.5.6, but here I am on 1.5.6 and importing utf8-encoded LaTeX files doesn't work :( I guess there's a misunderstanding between Texmate, MacOS and Lyx on what utf8 actually means :) I hope there's somebody who has this figured out. Anyone? Help?

Zotero is great for organizing literature and bibliography
Hi All, I once asked for your help to connect bibtex with lyx, and like many of you I use Jabref. Lately, I've been using a new program called Zotero. Its a new, cute, FREE program: www.zotero.org, which is an add-on to firefox. I recommend watching there Ztour film for a quick overview. So the point is that my pdf literature folder, which is has been a mess, is much more organized. You can export Zotero as bibtex for lyx. etc... Hope this helps anyone Kind Regards, Erez -- Erez Yerushalmi PhD Student Warwick University, UK http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/soc/economics/research/phds/2ndyear/yerushalmi

I agree: it's a bit confusing from the GUI. However, it's possible to have multiple windows on a single document (which can be very useful), and LyX ensures that they're all in sync. (That is, the multiple windows are simply different views of the same thing, where it is this one thing -- the document -- that gets edited from within any of these views.)

I would rather have one stable and solid LyX Way (unicode + xetex (and in the future luatex) + opentype) and a possibility to export pdflatex code for special reasons (like microtypography). Having the possibility to switch the latex engine in the middle of creating a document is a recipe for subtle problems (encoding, fonts). LyX users should not care and know anything about subtle differences between LaTeX engines. I will not mourn the death of LaTeX inputenc, font system, DVI...

LyX and Sweave: reading data files
Hello there, I am trying to use Sweave and LyX for a project of my own, and have the following problem: my R code reads some data somevars<-read.table("somevars.dat") and this data file is not available when Sweave is ran from the /tmp directory. I guess this problem is quite common... How do people solve it in general? I do not want to use an absolute path, since it makes the file non portable... JMarc
