Hi,

I personally don't know how to achieve your caption format, but I can 
point you in the right direction. What you want to achieve can be 
controlled at the latex level. There will be some latex code that you 
can put in your document's preamble to achieve it.


One option that I can think of, off the top of my head, is the caption 
latex package. You might want to search for its documentation and read 
it. I don't know for sure if this package can do what you want, but it 
is likely. In any case, now that we have established that it is a latex 
question, it can be asked on dedicated latex channels. There are latex 
experts roaming this list as well, but you would increase the likelihood 
of an answer by asking on comp.lang.tex, etc.

Re: Custom Class Figure Problem

[Julien Rioux]

Actually I think putting in your document preamble (From the menu 
Document  Settings) this line:


\usepackage[labelsep=period]{caption}

is quick and sufficient.

Re: Custom Class Figure Problem

[Danny Parker]

That did get the figure number and caption in the same line (much thanks)
but it did not single space the caption.  Do you know of a quick way of
fixing that?  I tried just using the paragraph settings but it seems the
class has redefined /singlespace so when I try to make the pdf I get an
error.  Thanks to the help of another user I think I can edit the class to
rename the command freeing up /singlespacing.  The one thing I'm unsure of
when doing that is do I only have to reconfigure LyX or do I need to do
something with MiKTeX also?

Again thanks for the help.  It's very much appreciated.

LyX and the algorithm2e package

[Georger Araujo]

Hello everybody,
I'm a novice LyX/TeX user. Did any of you manage to get the algorithm2e
package to work in LyX? I tried to copy the module and follow the
instructions in [1], but it didn't work at first; I did a few changes to the
module, which now looks like this:

-
#\DeclareLyXModule[algorithm2e.sty]{algorithm2e float}
#DescriptionBegin
# Wrapper for the algorithm2e environment
#DescriptionEnd
#Requires
#Excludes
#Author: phbaer (many thanks to Chris)

Format 11

Requires algorithm2e

AddToPreamble
\usepackage[algo2e,portuguese]{algorithm2e}
EndPreamble

Float
Type algorithm
GuiName Algorithm2e
Placement tbp
Extension loa
NumberWithin none
Style plain
ListName List of Algorithms
LaTeXBuiltin false
End
-

But now my algorithms have the string Algorithm2e 1 prepended to the
caption, instead of Algoritmo 1 (my native language is Portuguese).
I am interested in using this package because it can generate a localized
list of algorithms and also localized captions.
Would anybody happen to have a working module? I'm running LyX 1.6.8 with
MiKTeX 2.9 on Windows.

Hello Joost,
Thank you for your reply.  I will try the standard installer after my laptop
becomes operational. It will take some time to fix it since it has to be sent to
Singapore and I plan to do it only in when I go there. 
 Right now, the laptop
fan does not work and there is a risk of  burning the disk/cpu. I think I did
try the standard installer and it may not have worked. But I cannot confirm

LyX and the algorithm2e package

[Georger Araujo]

Hello everybody,
I'm a novice LyX/TeX user. Did any of you manage to get the algorithm2e
package to work in LyX? I tried to copy the module and follow the
instructions in [1], but it didn't work at first; I did a few changes to the
module, which now looks like this:

-
#\DeclareLyXModule[algorithm2e.sty]{algorithm2e float}
#DescriptionBegin
# Wrapper for the algorithm2e environment
#DescriptionEnd
#Requires
#Excludes
#Author: phbaer (many thanks to Chris)

Format 11

Requires algorithm2e

AddToPreamble
\usepackage[algo2e,portuguese]{algorithm2e}
EndPreamble

Float
Type algorithm
GuiName Algorithm2e
Placement tbp
Extension loa
NumberWithin none
Style plain
ListName "List of Algorithms"
LaTeXBuiltin false
End
-

But now my algorithms have the string "Algorithm2e 1" prepended to the
caption, instead of "Algoritmo 1" (my native language is Portuguese).
I am interested in using this package because it can generate a localized
list of algorithms and also localized captions.
Would anybody happen to have a working module? I'm running LyX 1.6.8 with
MiKTeX 2.9 on Windows.

Hello Joost,
Thank you for your reply.  I will try the standard installer after my laptop
becomes operational. It will take some time to fix it since it has to be sent to
Singapore and I plan to do it only in when I go there. 
 Right now, the laptop
fan does not work and there is a risk of  burning the disk/cpu. I think I did
try the standard installer and it may not have worked. But I cannot confirm
this. I remember installing different versions though.
