Run-on text after subsubsection
Dear LyX users, I am working with the article(Covington) class, revising the formatting of my paper for a journal. My editor wants the subsubsections to be followed by the next paragraph's text on the same line. That is, something like this 3.2.1 My paper's section such-and-such In this section, I will solve problem so-and-so... Should look like this: 3.2.1. My paper's section such and such. In this section, I will solve problem so-and-so... Is there a way to do this non-manually, from the preamble? I am not afraid of playing around with the layout file, as well, but I'd rather not have to import the paper into LaTeX and use the Mouton de Gruyter doc class, since there is too much custom formatting in my paper.

Bibunits example only generates one of 2 bibliographies
I am trying to make an article with 2 bibliographies. To get me going I am
starting with the example on the wiki:
http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/Bibunits
However when I make a PDF I do not get one of the bibliographies.
Apparently it is not being processed by bibtex. When I copy the bib files
(refs.bib) into LyX's temp dir, and run bibtex manually and regenerate the
PDF, everything works.
There is a hint on the wiki which is supposed to solve this problem:
Hint: The problem that LyX does not find the extra aux files for bibunits
can be solved without running bibtex manually and without a shell script.
Just add the following to the preamble, and LyX will automatically run
bibtex on the extra files:
\makeatletter
\renewcomman...@bibunitname}{\jobname.\the\@bibunitauxcnt}
\makeatother
But it is obviously not working for me. Would anyone have any
fixes/workarounds/insight?
Thank you very much your help,
Greg.

Re: How to show the citations without the bibliography in lyx output?
Right, so just overlook everything in that last email. It doesn't work. You might be able to accomplish something by redefining the \thebibliography and \bibitem commands (and probably one or two more), but I'd need to think about how to go about doing it before making recommendations. If this route interests you, you can find some additional information at: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Bibliography_Management And in chapter 12 in the LaTeX companion.

Re: How to show the citations without the bibliography in lyx output?
I just realized that there might be a second option as well. The
appearance of the bibliography in a latex document is determined by an
environment called thebibliography.
When I was working on a CV template (see
http://blog.oak-tree.us/index.php/2009/11/25/latex-cv-part1 and
http://blog.oak-tree.us/index.php/2009/12/02/latex-cv-part3), I wanted
to do some fancy stuff in the bibliography and played around with
modifying this environment
I'm not sure if it would work, but you might simply try adding this to
your preamble:
\renewenvironment{thebibliography}{}{}
This should, theoretically, wipe out the pre-defined formatting without
modifying the appearance of in-text citations and might work with a
footnote style guide, like Chicago.
Cheers,
Rob

Re: How to show the citations without the bibliography in lyx output?
Hi Jim, The appearance of the detailed list of references is usually determined by the bibliography style that you are using. Is there a particular style of references that you need (for example, footnotes)? Or is there a particular style that you are aiming for? It would be especially helpful if you know the name of the style manual. Once you know what kind of citation style you require in the document, then it's just a matter of finding a bibtex template that provides it. Most LaTeX distributions come with a huge number of bibtex templates already installed and may already have the one you need. If not installing a new template isn't particularly hard. You can change the style template by clicking on the bibliography inset, and then choosing the appropriate option from the drop down list. For more informataion, you might want to look at the bibtex styles information on the Reed College website (http://web.reed.edu/cis/help/LaTeX/bibtexstyles.html). If you have a hard time finding a template without a formatted list of references, you can always accomplish the same thing by a strong arm approach. Simply place your bibliography at the very end of the document. Then, when you generate the PDF, lop off those pages. Either Acrobat Professional or PDF-Shuffler are good tools for this purpose (this article has some additional information on PDF tools for Linux, http://blog.oak-tree.us/index.php/2010/05/26/pdf-linux). While this approach is slightly less than elegant, it does get the job done. And it's probably as fast as commenting out code lines.

How to show the citations without the bibliography in lyx output?
What I'd like to do is generate a PDF document from my lyx source that shows all the reference citations in the main body, but does not produce the detailed list of references at the end, where the \bibliography command is placed. Is there a quick and easy way to do this in Lyx? Simply commenting out the \bibliography doesn't work because it messes up the citations, and other tricks I have seen (i.e. http://groups.google.com/group/latexusersgroup/browse_thread/thread/330d7dda163dcd91) cannot be implemented in an obvious way so far as I can tell. Thanks, Jim

Now I cannot reproduce the crash either. Yesterday I reproduced this 3-4 times in a row. If I can get it to fail again I will open a ticket. Thanks, James

Could you kindly answer the following questions privately? 1-Do I have to run the ./autogen.sh in my /lyx-devel as root? I did this, but am afraid that was wrong. 2-how do I start the new lyx respectively how do I at what step tell, the new lyx should eg be called lyx2? Once I got my new lyx running, I will report. Yours Wolfgang
