Thanks You should bind the key that you want to the command "dialog-toggle toc". In LyX1.6, Tools->Preferences->Editing->Shortcuts, find the "dialog-toggle" command in the "Cursor, Mouse, and Editing functions" section, press Modify, add " toc" to the function, set a shortcut.

Re: Best way to insert system of equations
When I viewed the dvi file, the size of the equivalence sign looked just right. Paul Smith wrote: Dear All, I am trying to insert a system of equation in a LyX document. I am using the cases environment, but, as you can see from the attached example, the space between the first system of equations and the equivalence symbol is too large and not symmetric regarding the distance between the equivalence symbol and the second system of equations.

Try using a { delimiter (in LaTeX: \left{ \right. ) along with an
array to
accomplish this. See attached.
Thanks, James, but you solution stills contains asymmetric distances
between each system and the equivalence symbol. Can it be still
improved?
You could insert a \, (small space) after the arrow. See attached.

Re: nicer matrix delimiters?

You haven't filled the second column of the cases environment. Without this column, the cases environment doesn't make sense in the mathematical sense it is designed for. Attached is your example file with two possibilities to fix this. Also have a look at sec. 3.5 of LyX's Math manual that you find in the Help menu of LyX. regards Uwe example_system_equations.lyx Description: application/lyx

How to automatically add the filename in a footer?
Hi,
I guess the following will require some LaTeX. Any tips on how to get the
filename appear in the footer?
I'm using \cfoot{...} to create the center text of the footer.
Is it also possible to only extract for instane the filename and not get
the full path? Or remove the extension?
regards,

Slightly off topic, but somebody might know: I am using JabRef to push my references into a LyX-written book. Lets say, I have my references in ref.bib and want to search for references in the web concerning circadian obesity sleep and 2008 So I press F5 (WebSearch and Search Medline) in JabRef get a Medline Tab and insert circadian obesity sleep 2008 which would give me 48 references to reduce the number, I include review: circadian obesity sleep review 2008 which gives me 48 references In order to select the only reference I am interested in, namely Laposky I remove the rest before and after this reference by using cut and paste with the mouse (##question1: is there an easier way? did not find any##) generate a bibtex-key (knob) and press ok The reference is now in ref.bib However, instead of Laposky, A. D. and Bass, J. .. as desired, I get Aaron D Laposky and Joseph Bass ... without comma and points, and the prenames in front ##Question 2: is there a way to get it correct at this stage or before?## I save the entered reference in JabRef by control s (if not done now I won't see the ref in the lyx file immediately) and push the citation into the Lyx file (pressing the LyX knob or control l) The citation is giving troubles when trying to export the LyX file, and I have to fix the author line first, which is cumbersome if there are many authors and prone to introduce errors I am sorry for this lengthy mail, but wanted to describe it in a way which is easily reproducible. I would appreciate help, and thanks a lot in advance Wolfgang
How to export with date?
Dear friends, Is it possible to export with data in the file name? For example, I have a LyX file named "foo.lyx". Can I make LyX automatically export it as "foo_year_month_date_hour_mintue.pdf"? Thank you in advance, Wen
