tweak the insert citation button

2013-12-22 Thread pierre-philipp braun 

Hi,

I am using LyX with biblatex and the verbose-trad styles.  I need full 
citations as footnotes, so I should rather use the biblatex-dw package 
to manage those directly.  However I really prefer the built-in 
verbose-* styles because those don't produce See note n° citations 
(apart from the verbose-note style, obviously), which I do not 
appreciate.  The problem with biblatex's built-in styles in LyX is that 
I have to use \footcite command instead of \cite, and the insert 
citation button in LyX only does \cite, as far as I know.


How to tweak LyX to always produce \footcite instead of \cite?

many thanks

Depends on the citation backend. If you use natbib, you have a selection of 
\citet, \citep etc.

 How to tweak LyX to always produce \footcite instead of \cite?

\let\cite\footcite

With fortcoming LyX 2.1, you can also add a real \footcite command to the 
citation dialog. If you use standard citation (not natbib), paste the 
following to Document  Settings  Local Format (hit Validate before 
applying):

CiteEngine default

Hello Jürgen,

thanks for both of your answers.  I was using the \let\cite\footcite 
trick already but there's a side effect: in footnotes, a \footcite 
brings some parenthesis around the citation.  I don't need the 
parenthesis.  I have asked tex.sx how to remove those but it would be 
better to have it fixed within LyX.


I've tried to validate your layout script but it always says it is 
invalid.  Eventhough I fixed the line breaks caused by email client 
formating, donno if it's mine or yours.  I will try 2.1beta2!


thanks,

switching versions issues

Hi there,

I just switched to version 2.1 beta2 to test a layout script, saved the

error related to the LyX format.

Aren't LyX document supposed to be readable by various LyX versions?  In 
that case this is definitely a beta.


Is there a trick to fix the document or should I look at my last backups?

Apart from the fact I cannot read the document with the previous version 
anymore (this is addressed in another message), version 2.1 beta 2 seems 
to work fine here, on Windows XP SP3 FR 32-bit.  The citation system 
works as good as I could wish it in my dreams.  However there's now a 
'#' before the citation key, is it possible to remove it?  I am used to 
[key] which is just fine enough.  I might have Foot: now in front of it,

The beta is a beta, and the standard disclaimer applies: do NOT use it
for production purposes.

This said, the file format in 2.1beta is incompatible with the
fileformat in 2.0.x. This is a known and documented feature. If you
modified your documents in 2.1beta and you want to access them in 2.0,
then you need to File  Export  LyX 2.0.x.

CJK only LyX can't do it

2013-12-22 Thread Karl Linek 
Hi,

I wrote a simple simple sentence using a Chinese sign. I could produce a
pdf-file. Then I just pressed enter to make another line before the
Chinese sign. Now LyX couldn't make a pdf-file anymore. I noticed LyX
had ended the CJK-environment just after the enter. I couldn't move the
\end{CJK}. I reported this behaviour already. But the answers were not
satisfying. A develper said one can't combine CJK with the German
package - because of LaTeX. At first I quit, but then I started a final
test. I exported the lyx-file and produced a simple tex-file. Then I
opened it with Gummi 0.6. As expected it couldn't produce a pdf-file.
But unlike to LyX it allows to change the LaTeX directly. So I wrote
\end{CJK} just before \end{document}. Now it worked just perfect!

Now my question: Have you been ignored to by the LyX developers? What
should I do now?

Thanks for any answer.

Hi Karl,

I can reproduce your problem (thank you for sending a minimal
example). if you open your .lyx file and go to View Source you will
see LyX Warning: uncodable character '氣'. To fix this, you can
select the character and go to Edit  Text Style  Customized and set
Language to Chinese. From now on, you can select text and right
click and go to Language in the right-click menu (you couldn't
before because there was only one language.

By the way, it's always useful in questions like these if we state our
OS, LyX version and TeX distribution because sometimes a problem has
to do with that. I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 and an up-to-date TeX Live
2013. I've tested my above instructions on 2.0.xgit (soon to be 2.0.7)
and 2.1git (soon to be 2.1).

Best,

Scott

You can easily check that: introduce an error towards the end of the document.

Yes, it does detect deliberately introduced errors inserted near the end of

reached the end of the document, when it clearly hadn't.  If it had said
that there were no more errors, I would have understood.  All is well.

With fortcoming LyX 2.1, you can also add a real \footcite command to the 
citation dialog. If you use standard citation (not natbib), paste the 
following to Document  Settings  Local Format (hit Validate before 
applying):


CiteEngine default
cite[]
footcite[]
nocite
End

CiteFormat default
# translatable bits
_notcited not cited
_addtobib Add to bibliography only.
_footcite Foot:

# macros
!open [
!sep ,
!close ]

!startlink {!a href='#LyXCite-%clean:key%'!}
!endlink {!/a!}

!cite %!startlink%{%label%[[%label%]]
[[{%numericallabel%[[%numericallabel%]][[#%key%]]}]]}%!endlink%%!nextcite%

!nextcite {%next%[[%!sep% %!cite%]]}
!nexthashkey {%next%[[%!sep% #%key%%!nexthashkey%]]}
!nextkey {%next%[[%!sep% %key%%!nextkey%]]}

!textafter {%textafter%[[, %textafter%]]}

# cite styles
cite %!open%{%dialog%[[#ID]][[%!cite%]]}%!textafter%%!close%
	footcite %!open%{%dialog%[[%_footcite% #ID]][[%_footcite%

 Aren't LyX document supposed to be readable by various LyX versions?  In

CJK only LyX can't do it

2013-12-22 Thread Karl Linek 
Hi,

I wrote a simple simple sentence using a Chinese sign. I could produce a
pdf-file. Then I just pressed enter to make another line before the
Chinese sign. Now LyX couldn't make a pdf-file anymore. I noticed LyX
had ended the CJK-environment just after the enter. I couldn't move the
\end{CJK}. I reported this behaviour already. But the answers were not
satisfying. A develper said one can't combine CJK with the German
package - because of LaTeX. At first I quit, but then I started a final
test. I exported the lyx-file and produced a simple tex-file. Then I
opened it with Gummi 0.6. As expected it couldn't produce a pdf-file.
But unlike to LyX it allows to change the LaTeX directly. So I wrote
\end{CJK} just before \end{document}. Now it worked just perfect!

Now my question: Have you been ignored to by the LyX developers? What
should I do now?

Thanks for any answer.

Hi Karl,

I can reproduce your problem (thank you for sending a minimal
example). if you open your .lyx file and go to View Source you will
see LyX Warning: uncodable character '氣'. To fix this, you can
select the character and go to Edit  Text Style  Customized and set
Language to Chinese. From now on, you can select text and right
click and go to Language in the right-click menu (you couldn't
before because there was only one language.

By the way, it's always useful in questions like these if we state our
OS, LyX version and TeX distribution because sometimes a problem has
to do with that. I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 and an up-to-date TeX Live
2013. I've tested my above instructions on 2.0.xgit (soon to be 2.0.7)
and 2.1git (soon to be 2.1).

Best,

Yes, it does detect deliberately introduced errors inserted near the end of

tweak the insert citation button

2013-12-22 Thread pierre-philipp braun 

Hi,

I am using LyX with biblatex and the verbose-trad styles.  I need full 
citations as footnotes, so I should rather use the biblatex-dw package 
to manage those directly.  However I really prefer the built-in 
verbose-* styles because those don't produce "See note n°" citations 
(apart from the verbose-note style, obviously), which I do not 
appreciate.  The problem with biblatex's built-in styles in LyX is that 
I have to use \footcite command instead of \cite, and the insert 
citation button in LyX only does \cite, as far as I know.


How to tweak LyX to always produce \footcite instead of \cite?

Depends on the citation backend. If you use natbib, you have a selection of 
\citet, \citep etc.

\let\cite\footcite

Re: tweak the insert citation button

2013-12-22 Thread pierre-philipp braun 

Hello Jürgen,

thanks for both of your answers.  I was using the \let\cite\footcite 
trick already but there's a side effect: in footnotes, a \footcite 
brings some parenthesis around the citation.  I don't need the 
parenthesis.  I have asked tex.sx how to remove those but it would be 
better to have it fixed within LyX.


I've tried to validate your layout script but it always says it is 
invalid.  Eventhough I fixed the line breaks caused by email client 
formating, donno if it's mine or yours.  I will try 2.1beta2!


thanks,

Apart from the fact I cannot read the document with the previous version 
anymore (this is addressed in another message), version 2.1 beta 2 seems 
to work fine here, on Windows XP SP3 FR 32-bit.  The citation system 
works as good as I could wish it in my dreams.  However there's now a 
'#' before the citation key, is it possible to remove it?  I am used to 
[key] which is just fine enough.  I might have Foot: now in front of it, 
which I guess I could tune, also.

You can easily check that: introduce an error towards the end of the document.

Re: Spellchecker

2013-12-22 Thread William Hanson 
Yes, it does detect deliberately introduced errors inserted near the end of
the document.  I was thrown off by the screen message that said it had
reached the end of the document, when it clearly hadn't.  If it had said
that there were no more errors, I would have understood.  All is well.
Thanks.
