Komascript: changing parameters in stdlayouts.inc to vary parskip
I'm using komascript book, which if I understand aright calls stdlayouts.inc to get its basic parameters. In one of the environments, (verse) i want a different vertical space between every line of the poems. I think each poem line is defined as a separate paragraph. So I decided to change parskip in stdlayouts.inc for the verse environmment. I put Style Verse # LaTeX type is first dynamic because of LaTeX implementation. # In LyX this does not make sense. Category MainText LatexType Environment LatexName verse MarginFirst_Dynamic NextNoIndent 1 LeftMargin LabelIndent ParSkip 0.05 TopSep0.7 BottomSep 0.7 ParSep0.3 Align Block AlignPossible Block, Left LabelType No_Label End But nothing happens, nothing at all. The original values I changed from were ParSkip 0.4 ParSep 0.5 Where is my logic wrong?

Re: announce: template to write Ph.D. theses with LyX
Dear Alex. That might be a good idea, but I think elyxer needs to mature a little bit more before turning it into the default converter for MS Word. For example, it doesn't handle math macros at all, which I use constantly. For more simpler documents it's fine, I think.

Re: Spell checker
I initially had the same problem on linux. If I recall correctly, when I compiled lyx 2 for the first time I didn't have the aspell development files installed (libaspell-dev package under debian) so the configuration run didn't find it and compiled lyx without aspell support. I later installed it and recompiled but I also had to delete the .lyx-2.0 user directory and let lyx reconfigure for it to enable spell support. A simple reconfigure wasn't enough. I am seeing two small problems with the inline spell checker though 1. It's leaving around some of the red wigly lines, they are not fully cleaned up properly when not needed any more 2. It won't work inside some of the inset (lyx note comes to mind, don't recall about others) as it's popping up the inset menu instead of the spell menu.

Re: Koma-script question
For future reference (and thanks to Peter Flynn of the Latex user group), using absolute instead of relative font sizes plus the selectfont command solves the problem: \addtokomafont{caption}{fontsize{8}{10}\selectfont} It smacks a bit of finger painting, but works well.

Spellcheck: alternative language
Hi, I tried to install the spellcheck function in lyx on my Windows VISTA and got it working for the English language. But it just won't work for other languages although the dictionaries are installed. I went to Tools - Preferences - Spellchecker and I typed in the Alternative language field: de (for german) Lyx found my de-common.multi file - that is for sure, since I once changed it to de-comm.multi and Lyx gave me an error message (as expected). So, typing de in the alternative language DOES have the effect that Lyx needs my German dictionary, but it DOES NOT have the effect that it also uses it. That is the problem. Lyx always uses the English dictionary no matter what I type in as a alternative language (I also tried it out with French and Spanish). After hours of uninstalling, installing and googling I am really frustrated. Could you please help me? Best regards Peter
LyX 1.6.5 claims Bera fonts not installed
I had been running LyX 1.6.3 with MacTeX 2008 under OS X 10.5.x and created a number of documents using the three Bera fonts. Recently, I downloaded, installed and updated MacTeX 2009. I also grabbed the MacTeXtras; it came with LyX 1.6.5 so I installed that also. Now LyX doesn't see that the Bera fonts are available (they show as 'not installed' in Documents - Settings - Fonts). If I switch back to MacTeX 2008 (which I have not uninstalled but would like too) and reconfigure LyX, these fonts still show as not installed. MacTeX 2008 and 2009 most definitely do come with the Bera fonts installed; all the correct files appear to be there. I really need to convince LyX 1.6.5 that these fonts are indeed installed and available, as I need to re-edit some documents and have them print using the same standards that I was already using for this series of documents. (And yes, I did re-run 'sudo texhash', just in case, and ran the LyX-installer that comes on the LyX-1.6.5-Mac-Universal.dmg.) Any suggestions would be appreciated. I haven't yet downgraded to LyX 1.6.3; I guess that might be my next step in troubleshooting. Thanks, -- Rich

Re: Suppressing page numbers in lyx 1.6.5
Jim Rockford jim.rockfo...@... writes: I'm running Lyx on Windoze 7 (64bit). I was under the impression that the following document style setting will suppress page numbers: Document -- Settings -- Page Layout -- Headings Style -- empty However, in the single-page document (article style) that I'm currently working on, I still get the page number 1 at the bottom of the page when I generate the PDF. Am I doing something wrong? Are there alternative methods for suppressing page numbers? You're doing it correctly, and it should work (works fine for me here). You might try View View Source, click the option for complete source, and verify that \pagestyle{empty} shows up early in the LaTeX code. Other than that, is there anything funky in your preamble that might be overriding the page style command?

More progress has been made in Blogging with LyX. Thanks Alex for helping me discover that I had a really outdated version of eLyXer in my original tests.

Komascript: changing parameters in stdlayouts.inc to vary parskip
I'm using komascript book, which if I understand aright calls stdlayouts.inc to get its basic parameters. In one of the environments, (verse) i want a different vertical space between every line of the poems. I think each poem line is defined as a separate paragraph. So I decided to change parskip in stdlayouts.inc for the verse environmment. I put Style Verse # LaTeX type is first dynamic because of LaTeX implementation. # In LyX this does not make sense. Category MainText LatexType Environment LatexName verse MarginFirst_Dynamic NextNoIndent 1 LeftMargin LabelIndent ParSkip 0.05 TopSep0.7 BottomSep 0.7 ParSep0.3 Align Block AlignPossible Block, Left LabelType No_Label End But nothing happens, nothing at all.

Re: Spell checker
I initially had the same problem on linux. If I recall correctly, when I compiled lyx 2 for the first time I didn't have the aspell development files installed (libaspell-dev package under debian) so the configuration run didn't find it and compiled lyx without aspell support. I later installed it and recompiled but I also had to delete the .lyx-2.0 user directory and let lyx reconfigure for it to enable spell support. A simple reconfigure wasn't enough. I am seeing two small problems with the inline spell checker though 1. It's leaving around some of the red wigly lines, they are not fully cleaned up properly when not needed any more 2. It won't work inside some of the inset (lyx note comes to mind, don't recall about others) as it's popping up the inset menu instead of the spell menu.

Spellcheck: alternative language
Hi, I tried to install the spellcheck function in lyx on my Windows VISTA and got it working for the English language. But it just won't work for other languages although the dictionaries are installed. I went to Tools - Preferences - Spellchecker and I typed in the Alternative language field: de (for german) Lyx found my de-common.multi file - that is for sure, since I once changed it to de-comm.multi and Lyx gave me an error message (as expected). So, typing de in the alternative language DOES have the effect that Lyx needs my German dictionary, but it DOES NOT have the effect that it also uses it. That is the problem. Lyx always uses the English dictionary no matter what I type in as a alternative language (I also tried it out with French and Spanish). After hours of uninstalling, installing and googling I am really frustrated. Could you please help me? Best regards Peter
LyX 1.6.5 claims Bera fonts not installed
I had been running LyX 1.6.3 with MacTeX 2008 under OS X 10.5.x and created a number of documents using the three Bera fonts. Recently, I downloaded, installed and updated MacTeX 2009. I also grabbed the MacTeXtras; it came with LyX 1.6.5 so I installed that also. Now LyX doesn't see that the Bera fonts are available (they show as 'not installed' in Documents - Settings - Fonts). If I switch back to MacTeX 2008 (which I have not uninstalled but would like too) and reconfigure LyX, these fonts still show as not installed. MacTeX 2008 and 2009 most definitely do come with the Bera fonts installed; all the correct files appear to be there. I really need to convince LyX 1.6.5 that these fonts are indeed installed and available, as I need to re-edit some documents and have them print using the same standards that I was already using for this series of documents. (And yes, I did re-run 'sudo texhash', just in case, and ran the LyX-installer that comes on the LyX-1.6.5-Mac-Universal.dmg.) Any suggestions would be appreciated. I haven't yet downgraded to LyX 1.6.3; I guess that might be my next step in troubleshooting. Thanks, -- Rich

Suppressing page numbers in lyx 1.6.5

I used to think that macros were impossible to handle, but now I think they can be done without excessive trouble. I am planning to support them in the not-too-distant future. Also I have plans for creating one page per section (with navigation links between them) and support for MathML; both of these features are in varying stages of completion.

Re: BibLaTeX style: quot;{cite.0:[biblabel]} has been referenced but does not existquot; warning
When the biblatex styles creates some op. cit, ibid., etc. it needs a new latex run ro get the cross-references right. LyX does not understand that. Maybe in the 2.0 version it is fixed, but I don't know. Ouch... but how could it be that I used a some biblatex ibid. styles and it never gave me any problem, till now? Thanks for the info. Piero

Komascript: changing parameters in stdlayouts.inc to vary parskip
I'm using komascript book, which if I understand aright calls stdlayouts.inc to get its basic parameters. In one of the environments, (verse) i want a different vertical space between every line of the poems. I think each poem line is defined as a separate paragraph. So I decided to change parskip in stdlayouts.inc for the verse environmment. I put Style Verse # LaTeX type is first dynamic because of LaTeX implementation. # In LyX this does not make sense. Category MainText LatexType Environment LatexName verse MarginFirst_Dynamic NextNoIndent 1 LeftMargin LabelIndent ParSkip 0.05 TopSep0.7 BottomSep 0.7 ParSep0.3 Align Block AlignPossible Block, Left LabelType No_Label End But nothing happens, nothing at all. The original values I changed from were ParSkip 0.4 ParSep 0.5 Where is my logic wrong?

Re: Spell checker
I initially had the same problem on linux. If I recall correctly, when I compiled lyx 2 for the first time I didn't have the aspell development files installed (libaspell-dev package under debian) so the configuration run didn't find it and compiled lyx without aspell support. I later installed it and recompiled but I also had to delete the .lyx-2.0 user directory and let lyx reconfigure for it to enable spell support. A simple reconfigure wasn't enough. I am seeing two small problems with the inline spell checker though 1. It's leaving around some of the red wigly lines, they are not fully cleaned up properly when not needed any more 2. It won't work inside some of the inset (lyx note comes to mind, don't recall about others) as it's popping up the inset menu instead of the spell menu.

Re: Typesetting poetry
Thanks for that Steve. I followed your tutorials, and learned a fair amount: but in the end I found that the new environment I had made had knock-on effects on the paragraphs surrounding those where I applied it- effects I couldn't explain or remove. I hope there's a simpler way.
Re: Koma-script question
For future reference (and thanks to Peter Flynn of the Latex user group), using absolute instead of relative font sizes plus the selectfont command solves the problem: \addtokomafont{caption}{fontsize{8}{10}\selectfont} It smacks a bit of finger painting, but works well.

Spellcheck: alternative language
Hi, I tried to install the spellcheck function in lyx on my Windows VISTA and got it working for the English language. But it just won't work for other languages although the dictionaries are installed. I went to Tools - Preferences - Spellchecker and I typed in the Alternative language field: de (for german) Lyx found my de-common.multi file - that is for sure, since I once changed it to de-comm.multi and Lyx gave me an error message (as expected). So, typing "de" in the alternative language DOES have the effect that Lyx needs my German dictionary, but it DOES NOT have the effect that it also uses it. That is the problem. Lyx always uses the English dictionary no matter what I type in as a alternative language (I also tried it out with French and Spanish). After hours of uninstalling, installing and googling I am really frustrated. Could you please help me? Best regards Peter
LyX 1.6.5 claims Bera fonts not installed
I had been running LyX 1.6.3 with MacTeX 2008 under OS X 10.5.x and created a number of documents using the three Bera fonts. Recently, I downloaded, installed and updated MacTeX 2009. I also grabbed the MacTeXtras; it came with LyX 1.6.5 so I installed that also. Now LyX doesn't see that the Bera fonts are available (they show as 'not installed' in Documents -> Settings -> Fonts). If I switch back to MacTeX 2008 (which I have not uninstalled but would like too) and reconfigure LyX, these fonts still show as not installed. MacTeX 2008 and 2009 most definitely do come with the Bera fonts installed; all the correct files appear to be there. I really need to convince LyX 1.6.5 that these fonts are indeed installed and available, as I need to re-edit some documents and have them print using the same standards that I was already using for this series of documents. (And yes, I did re-run 'sudo texhash', just in case, and ran the LyX-installer that comes on the LyX-1.6.5-Mac-Universal.dmg.) Any suggestions would be appreciated. I haven't yet downgraded to LyX 1.6.3; I guess that might be my next step in troubleshooting. Thanks, -- Rich

even numbered title page getting numbered
Hello forum, I am working with report class and managed to configured it so that Abstract, Acknowledgement and each chapter starts with odd numbering page. I have inserted "clear doublepage " before each of them. Now the even page of the Title page is also getting numbered and i do not want that. Any hint to remove that? Regards Sajjad

Suppressing page numbers in lyx 1.6.5
I'm running Lyx on Windoze 7 (64bit). I was under the impression that the following document style setting will suppress page numbers: Document --> Settings --> Page Layout --> Headings Style --> empty However, in the single-page document (article style) that I'm currently working on, I still get the page number 1 at the bottom of the page when I generate the PDF. Am I doing something wrong? Are there alternative methods for suppressing page numbers? Thanks, Jim

I think that the indication that the Bera fonts are not installed is just a symptom of a deeper problem; I appear to have lost all font control. No matter what fonts I choose, I get a pdf that has the default LaTeX fonts. Something is badly screwed up in my TeX installation; I'm going to get rid of it and start over.

I used to think that macros were impossible to handle, but now I think they can be done without excessive trouble. I am planning to support them in the not-too-distant future. Also I have plans for creating one page per section (with navigation links between them) and support for MathML; both of these features are in varying stages of completion.
