ow to change the reference style from [1,2,3] to [1-3]

[leemon albert]

Hi all,

I use the  vancouver style in references. Is there any way to change the
citation style from [1,2,3] to [1-3] in Lyx 1.6.4?

Re: inserting c code in beamer presentation

[Rainer M Krug]

I just tried it out - when you put [plain] into a ERT as the first thing in
a frame, it shows a plain frame, and the same applies for
[allowframebreaks]. Several options, can be separated by a comma. But it
does NOT work for fragile or containsverbatim.

If this could be changed, so that it works for all options for frames, that
should be sufficient.

  Interesting. We should add this information to our beamer example file
 (by
   adding a program listing  frame). Can you do this please?

 I'm thinking about a way to implement fragile frames.

See attached file.

Instead of ERT \end{frame}, you have to use the paragraph style EndFame.

Also, I've copied your listings to LyX's listings inset (Insert  Program 
Listings), so that the listings package is loaded (otherwise, you need 
\usepackage{listings} in the preamble).

Float (figure) placed in the end of the document

[Erez Yerushalmi]

Hi All,

I did something, but I don't know what.

Now, all my figure-floats are placed at the end of the document.

Last thing I did was to added start appendix here, and floats were pushed
to the end.
I thought this was the problem, so I deleted the appendix, but the floats
are still at the end.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,  Erez

You could look at Document Settings - Float Placement to set defaults for 
figures.

Also see the Embedded Objects manual, section 3.5.

Re: Float (figure) placed in the end of the document

[Erez Yerushalmi]

Thanks James,

Yes, I did what you suggested before asking in the forum...

For example, I set the float to be at the bottom of the page, but now it
gets pushed to the end of the document.

But, when I set it for Default placement, it does show in the middle of the
document, but by default at the top of the page.

So, forcing it to be at bottom of page, forces it again to end of document.

I'm using article class.

cosmetic question: LyX icon size (medium) and scaling

[Olivier Ripoll]

Hi,

I was trying to change the LyX icons to use similar Tango ones (not that 
I like Tango, but it is quite complete, esp. with OpenOffice.org math 
stuff).


I copied in my user lyxfolder (~\Application Data\lyx16\images) png 
files with same names as the ones in the LyX resources folder 
(C:\Program Files\LyX 1.6.4\Resources\images).


However, the result looks bad (fuzzy, esp. for lines). I noticed that 
the original LyX images have heterogeneous sizes (most often 20x20, 
22x22 and 24x24 pixels), and tried to make all my png images 22x22, but 
they still look bad.


Is there a way to specify the icon size somewhere or should I use 20x20  ?
If I have to use a height of 20, is the width free or must it be a 
square icon ?


Thanks for the info/pointers.

Best regards,

Olivier

Then the image is larger than the LaTeX rule for bottom page floats. So either you increase the 
LaTeX rule height or use the option in the float position dialog named ignore LaTeX rules.


For more info, see the EmbeddedObjects manual, sec. 3.5. I described there how LaTeX's float 
placement algorithm works and how the LaTeX rules can be changed.

Skip a block of text when printing

[Rob]

Hi,

I have a bunch of figures at the end of my document that I want to keep in the
document, but I don't want to have them appear in the pdf output.  How do I
skip over these?  They need to be part of the material compiled since they
have labels that are referenced in the text, but I simply don't want them to
appear in the pdf output.  At present, I hacked it by setting the font color to
white, but now I have lots of extra blank pages.  Is there a
\skipsendingthistopdf{...} command that would include the material, but just not
send it to pdf?  This would be very helpful.  Thanks.

Rob

Add the document option draft in the menu Document-Settings-Document class-Custom, or mark the 
images as draft (right click on the images-graphics dialog-Draft mode).

Greek Fonts Part 3 - Günter

[Brian Bosse]

Hello Günter,

 

I am still no sure how to respond in this list.  Every time I click the
“Reply Via Email” button I get “Not Found - The document you were looking
for was not found.” Oh well. :-(  Please forgive my lack of  etiquette.  You
mentioned that I could wait for 1.6.5 to come out, but I would rather not.
You also mentioned to copy the file ‘unicodesymbols’ from the system from
the system LYXDIR to my personal lyx-dir  and apply a patch.  I am on a
Windows XP system, and found the file under C:\Program
Files\LyX16\Resources.  I am not sure where to copy this file.
(Specifically, I do not know what you mean by the distinction between the
system LYXDIR and my personal lyx-dir.)  Also, I do not know how to apply
the patch.  What are the steps that I need to do to apply the patch?  I
noticed another patch that seems to be a correction to the first patch.
Should I apply that instead?  Thank you for your patience and all of your
help.  I am sorry to be such a bother.
 
Sincerely,
 
Brian

Float (figure) placed in the end of the document

[Erez Yerushalmi]

Hi All,

I did something, but I don't know what.

Now, all my figure-floats are placed at the end of the document.

Last thing I did was to added start appendix here, and floats were pushed
to the end.
I thought this was the problem, so I deleted the appendix, but the floats
are still at the end.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,  Erez

You could look at Document Settings - Float Placement to set defaults for 
figures.

Also see the Embedded Objects manual, section 3.5.

Re: Float (figure) placed in the end of the document

[Erez Yerushalmi]

Thanks James,

Yes, I did what you suggested before asking in the forum...

For example, I set the float to be at the bottom of the page, but now it
gets pushed to the end of the document.

But, when I set it for Default placement, it does show in the middle of the
document, but by default at the top of the page.

So, forcing it to be at bottom of page, forces it again to end of document.

I'm using article class.

cosmetic question: LyX icon size (medium) and scaling

[Olivier Ripoll]

Hi,

I was trying to change the LyX icons to use similar Tango ones (not that 
I like Tango, but it is quite complete, esp. with OpenOffice.org math 
stuff).


I copied in my user lyxfolder (~\Application Data\lyx16\images) png 
files with same names as the ones in the LyX resources folder 
(C:\Program Files\LyX 1.6.4\Resources\images).


However, the result looks bad (fuzzy, esp. for lines). I noticed that 
the original LyX images have heterogeneous sizes (most often 20x20, 
22x22 and 24x24 pixels), and tried to make all my png images 22x22, but 
they still look bad.


Is there a way to specify the icon size somewhere or should I use 20x20  ?
If I have to use a height of 20, is the width free or must it be a 
square icon ?


Thanks for the info/pointers.

Best regards,

Olivier

Then the image is larger than the LaTeX rule for bottom page floats. So either you increase the 
LaTeX rule height or use the option in the float position dialog named ignore LaTeX rules.


For more info, see the EmbeddedObjects manual, sec. 3.5. I described there how LaTeX's float 
placement algorithm works and how the LaTeX rules can be changed.

Skip a block of text when printing

[Rob]

Hi,

I have a bunch of figures at the end of my document that I want to keep in the
document, but I don't want to have them appear in the pdf output.  How do I
skip over these?  They need to be part of the material compiled since they
have labels that are referenced in the text, but I simply don't want them to
appear in the pdf output.  At present, I hacked it by setting the font color to
white, but now I have lots of extra blank pages.  Is there a
\skipsendingthistopdf{...} command that would include the material, but just not
send it to pdf?  This would be very helpful.  Thanks.

Re: inserting c code in beamer presentation

[Rainer M Krug]

I just tried it out - when you put [plain] into a ERT as the first thing in
a frame, it shows a plain frame, and the same applies for
[allowframebreaks]. Several options, can be separated by a comma. But it
does NOT work for fragile or containsverbatim.

If this could be changed, so that it works for all options for frames, that
should be sufficient.

See attached file.

Instead of ERT \end{frame}, you have to use the paragraph style EndFame.

Also, I've copied your listings to LyX's listings inset (Insert > Program 
Listings), so that the listings package is loaded (otherwise, you need 
\usepackage{listings} in the preamble).

The accents or characters with accents?

You need a screen-font that supports the Greek extended characters.
Both, Plato and Homer work fine here with LyX 1.6.4 and the DejaVu

I had to realize that the Greek-extended patch is not yet in 1.6.4.
So either you 

* wait for 1.6.5

* copy the file unicodesymbols from the system LYXDIR to your personal
  lyx-dir (~/.lyx in Unix) and apply the patch
  
http://www.lyx.org/trac/attachment/ticket/4997/unicodesymbols-greek-extended-charxxx.patch

* set the language to polytonic greek and the encoding to utf8x
  (see http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg72834.html)

> Changing the document encoding to utf8 could help.

This is a misleading hint. Changing to utf8 will almost never help in
this case, as fontencs' utf8 supports only a small subset of UTF-8
characters (far less than LyX itself).

Instead, utf8x should be used:

   Language   Encoding 
  [x] Other: Unicode (ucs-enhanced) (utf8x)

The problem is that a fragile frame is a really complicated beast. On the 
other hand, LyX's frame implementation is complicated as well (have a look at 
the preamble definition of \lyxframe. Marrying these two beasts is a hard 
task.

OK - I just checked again, and it is not as straightforward as the other
frames. So a new fragile frame would be a good idea

Completely agreed - I looked at it some time ago and gave up...
