Is something (like my newly installed SpamAssassin) eating all the Lyx 
list messages, or is everyone on the beach somewhere?

child_master_document_formatting

2009-09-26 Thread Kamran SHAFQAT

Hi,

I am having some problem with formatting my thesis. I am using Lyx1.6.4 
with Miktex 2.7 on Xp machine.


I am writing each chapter in a separate file and then including them in 
a master file. Sometimes a used \enlargethispage or \vspace commands to 
fill the page properly because extra space is left at the bottom of the 
page or by reduing the space between the float and text a bit I can get 
a better distributed page. I get each chapter formatted properly and 
when I include just that chapter in the master file it works fine I get 
the desired results but when I add more than one chapter than in some 
cases the changes that I have made doesn't seems to work.


For example, I have attached two images the difference is the extra line 
at the bottom of the page in the correct_output file. This is who I 
wanted to get the page so I have used \vspace command to move the text 
up (\enlagethispage did work that well in this case). The master file 
and everything else is same except that I get the desired result when I 
am not including the other chapters as child document in the master 
file. This happens with the float placement as well, after manual 
adjustment I get the float in the desired position when only that 
chapter is included in the master file but when I add more chapters in 
the master file then the float position changes.


I have kept the margins and float placement as default in the every 
child document and only define the margin in the master file and the 
float options in the master are top, bottom or pages of float. So any 
suggestion why the formatting is changing when more than one child 
document is getting added to the master file. Thanks for the help

Sudden crashes in LyX 16.4

2009-09-26 Thread Stefano Franchi
Hi All,

I recently updated to 1.6.4 and I experiencing crashes I did not have before. 
These happen when working on a large document (a book) which is made up of 
several smaller files (the chapters). Lyx quits suddenly when scrolling the 
main . Can anyone remind me of which debug option I should choose to obtain 
any meaningful output in the terminal?


Cheers,

S.

formatting problem

2009-09-26 Thread Bert Douglas

Trying to get following:
-- non-justified paragraphs (ragged right)
-- two columns
-- no indent
-- small skip between paragraphs

This is for membership list type of document.

Problem is that there is unwanted coupling between the justification and the
vertical paragraph spacing.

When I set left justification in paragraph properties, I get an extra 
(unwanted)

full line spacing between paragraphs.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Bert Douglas
