If you want to mess up with editing the .lyx file, you should know that
the replacement should be
\shape smallcaps
enim
\shape default
But, as I said in a previous post, just use advanced S&R, and in
"Replace with" :
either
open an "ERT", with Ctrl-L, for that's where LaTeX commands should be,
and inside the inset type \textsc{...}
or
change the text style of your acronym to small caps (in "Replace with:",
as it accepts even formatting)

My typing mistake, the correct replacement was '\textsc{enim}'; sorry.

I have now noticed that not only the acronym disappears but a random
small quantity of words after the acronym (seems about 3-5 words) also
disappear! Very bad!

Tried to use advanced find and replace; the result was \textsc{abc} in
the pdf document!
Then tried to open the lyx file using a text editor and replaced using

Have just realised that after export to latex plain, unable to redo so
will have to reinsert the acronyms manually. This is bad.

Per-chapter appendices for LyX book
Hi!
Does LyX support the Appendix package? My hunch is that lyx does not support
this natively. Am I right?
I'm writing something (documentclass "book") that needs to have per-chapter
appendices. So the last few sections in each chapter would be appendices. I've
found that this can be done in LyX by:
1) \usepackage{appendix} in the preamble
2) Enclose the last sections of each chapter by ERT-s:
\begin{subappendix}
and
\end{subappendix}
This works beautifully. E.g. the first appendix in chapter 3 is denoted 3.A,
which is great!
But is it possible for me to define some sort of function to do this in LyX
without using ERT? I image some sort of box (looking similar to "lyx note"), in
which I can put several Sections. The contents of this box would then be
effectively enclosed in a subappendices environment as described above.
Is this something that can be done by defining those "custom insets" that are
accessible from the "Insert" menu? Or by defining a "module", accessible from
the Document settings?
Or is it possible to get per-chapter section appendices in a LyX book by some
other, and perhaps simpler, method?
Thanks, and best regards

In that case the latex output would always be the same (apart from documentclass). But I think that when I submit an article (i..e latex code) I don't want that code in include any code that was really meant for other recipients. That's why the lyx-branching is so cool.

Any other ways to improve speed? I am willing to recompile LyX myself with special options, or even modify the source code to deactivate stuff that is inaccessible from the preferences, if someone would kindly guide me any suggestion on what might help.

"language" settings inconsistent with the user's guide
Hi, I'm using Uwe's binary (LyX 2.0.1 on Win7 64bits, Miktex 2.9), so perhaps it's the cause of this inconsistency. About the Document-> Settings-> Language, section B9 of the User's guide states: --- Default is the package babel. Automatic selects the most suitable language package for the view/export format you will use. For example for the XeTeX formats the package polyglossia will be used instead of babel. --- However, when I use Default or Automatic, generating the pdf with XeTeX result in failures, with an error message mentionning polyglossia(*). If I switch to "Always Babel", compilation works fine. So I have the impression that either the documentation is wrong or that LyX does not do as expected. Best regards, Olivier. (*) It seems XeTeX and polyglossia have had issues in the past weeks, but may have been fixed very recently. But that's besides the point.

(Footnotes outside the table work fine, though!) You can not put a footnote in the repeated (first)header in a longtable. If you do LateX would have to put one at each page, and instead removes the whole thing. If you place the footnote elsewhere in the table it works. Maybe you could use some of the suggestion on these pages to make things work for you, I have not tried :). http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Tables http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=footintab HTH, Ingar Pareliussen
Re: Footnotes in longtables
OK - here is a small table, everything default, with that behavior. You can check from here, so the problem is not your document. Check http://www.latex-community.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=558&p=1903 Cheers, Rainer On Wed, Oct 12, 2011 at 10:24 AM, Rainer M Krug wrote: > > > On Tue, Oct 11, 2011 at 9:02 PM, Julien Rioux > wrote: > >> On 10/10/2011 11:02 AM, Lastalda Felina wrote: >> >>> Hello! >>> >>> I'm trying to insert a footnote in a longtable. >>> >>> The embedded objects manual as well as several sources on the web tell >>> me this should not be a problem, or that's how I read them. >>> But when I do it, the little number shows up but the footnote text >>> doesn't.

Also, start small: normal document class, one longtable with footnote - does it work? Change the document class - does it still work? And continue until you have your sample document. If you report back where it fails, you are more likely to find an answer. Cheers, Rainer > > -- > Julien > > -- Rainer M. Krug, PhD (Conservation Ecology, SUN), MSc (Conservation Biology, UCT), Dipl.
