 Could you please help solve this?

If you load 'fancybox' manually, check that there is nothing funny
with that line in the preamble. Also check that you have fancybox
installed on your computer.

Hi,

well thanks but I do not have any fancybox in my preamble; ill ive got is:

\usepackage{isomath}
\renewcommand{\vec}{\vectorsym}

Honestly, I'm not sure wha fancybox is (except from box)!

besides, how do I install fancybox? is it the one in the
texlive-latex-recommended package?

Besides, besides Lyx  texlive-science, should or do you suggest any
packages for mathematical/technical (science) documents (mainly physics
doc's)?

underscore issue

2012-09-21 Thread mario chiari 
Hi

I have the following issue 
(my guess is that it is a LaTeX issue, still help is welcome)

I have defined a command \qu :
\global\long\def\qu#1#2#3{\begin{quote} ``{#1}'' (\cite[pg.#2]{#3})
\end{quote}}.

For something like \qu{text}{12}{Writer_A}, when I try to pdflatex I get
the error msg:
---
{text}{12}{Writer\_A}
The control sequence marked to be read again should
not appear between \csname and \endcsname.
---

However I may insert  \cite[12]{Writer_A} and compile without any
trouble.

Is there a way out, if I try to keep my citations with '_'?

Your module looks quite interesting...


It's not for serious spreadsheeting, but for things like adding up a 
column of figures, calculating an average, producing educational tables 
(like a table of sines, cosines, tangents at 0, 30, 45, 60, 90 degrees),

You're right. They are unnecessary. I wasn't aware of the automatic

Hi,

well thanks but I do not have any fancybox in my preamble; ill ive got is:

\usepackage{isomath}
\renewcommand{\vec}{\vectorsym}

Honestly, I'm not sure wha fancybox is (except from "box")!

besides, how do I install fancybox? is it the one in the
texlive-latex-recommended package?

Besides, besides Lyx & texlive-science, should or do you suggest any
packages for mathematical/technical (science) documents (mainly physics
doc's)?

Thanks

Your module looks quite interesting...

thought the relevant code was added automatically.

Converting module from version 11 to 35 -- WAS: Errors when opening LyX files? - caused by module?

OK - that inotify was solved with a reboot - no idea what happened there.

I looked at the manual, and modified the offending module to the version 
attached, but I still get
errors:

when adding this module to the document. I must say, I don't have any ideas 
left what is causing
this, as the LabelType tag should be valid, ant the value "custom" as well? 
=What is there still
wrong?

As soon as this is solved, I will try to upload it to the LyX wiki.

Thanks,

Rainer

On Ubuntu it seems to be in the texlive-latex-recommended [1] package.
Try locate to check if you have teh relevant file installed.

[1] 
http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents=fancybox=filename=precise=any

Hmm, then I'm not sure what's wrong. Maybe if you could post a _small_
reproducible example we could understand better what's happening.

Paul,
  Thank you for the advice.  By "update", I mean miktex-update_admin.exe.  
Today, I ran the Options app to refresh the FNDB and update the formats, but 
it did not help.  Other ideas?

underscore issue

2012-09-21 Thread mario chiari 
Hi

I have the following issue 
(my guess is that it is a LaTeX issue, still help is welcome)

I have defined a command \qu :
\global\long\def\qu#1#2#3{\begin{quote} ``{#1}'' (\cite[pg.#2]{#3})
\end{quote}}.

For something like \qu{text}{12}{Writer_A}, when I try to pdflatex I get
the error msg:
---
{text}{12}{Writer\_A}
The control sequence marked  should
not appear between \csname and \endcsname.
---

However I may insert  \cite[12]{Writer_A} and compile without any
trouble.

Is there a way out, if I try to keep my citations with '_'?

Thankd
cheers
mario

Your module looks quite interesting...


It's not for serious spreadsheeting, but for things like adding up a 
column of figures, calculating an average, producing educational tables 
(like a table of sines, cosines, tangents at 0, 30, 45, 60, 90 degrees), 
and so on, without having to leave LyX and resort to an external program.




A question: do you actually need the \makeatletter/other pairs? I

JMarc

You're right. They are unnecessary. I wasn't aware of the automatic 
insertion of these pairs. I'll remove them from any future version of 
the module.
