Re: Nice way to do inset text?
Tim,I'm not sure if it is what you want, but I've attached a LyX module that gives you a "ChangeMargin" inset in the dropdown menu with Chapter, Section, Quote, and other text environments. You can modify the module file to give you the lengths and labels as needed. Info on installing modules can be found in the "Customizing LyX" help docs.The module is taken from the hanging paragraph module included with LyX. The LaTeX code is shamelessly borrowed fromhttp://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=chngmargonfly. It gives you a list environment so you could have a number of examples in a row. I don't have enough LaTeX know-how to figure it out on my own, so there are probably many other ways to do it better.The module should at least get you a basic paragraph style that you can change the margins as you want in both LyX and your output.Regards,Daron changemargin.module Description: Binary data On 28 Dec 2010, at 08:09, Tim Wescott wrote:I'm rewriting this article: http://www.wescottdesign.com/articles/Friction/friction.html.

underscore and missing $ inserted
Hi All,
I'm using this in my preamble.sty to include doi-links:
\newcommand*{\doi}[1]{\href{http://dx.doi.org/#1}{doi:#1}}
this works less than great when the DOI happens to include an underscore _
I then get two Missing $ inserted warnings from lyx, and no pdf output.
I would need some magic in front of the \doi command which would make
lyx/latex ignore the underscore(s) and not complain about missing $.
Any ideas?
This is lyx 1.6.5 with latex 3.1415926-1.40.10 on Ubuntu 10.04LTS
thanks,
AW

Thanks. We have deserted MikTex in favor of TexLive, which runs on both Linux and Windows. I looked, but it is not obvious how to register a shared folder as a root directory on Texlive.

Help with translations of user interface for LyX 2.0
Dear past, current and possible future LyX translators, our development tree is slowly moving towards the first stable release of LyX 2.0. Except bugfixing we are not adding new features or changing the code substantially, so the database of translation strings shouldn't change considerably and is prepared for your work. The current status of translations for the supported languages is maintained here: http://www.lyx.org/I18n-trunk Note that the languages in the 'red region', i.e. having less then 50% of strings translated, will be stripped from the final release. The up-to-date translation files can be always obtained via SVN or downloaded here: http://www.lyx.org/trac/browser/lyx-devel/trunk/po In case you are interested to help with the language which is unsupported or seems to be abandoned (see the last revised date), write first to the maintainer and if there is no response you can start by reading this short introduction: http://www.lyx.org/trac/browser/lyx-devel/trunk/README.localization Thanks, Pavel PS: All previous maintainers have been CC'ed. If you do not wish to obtain mails about LyX again, just let me know.
