Hi Alberto,
I don't know much about this, but you might be able to do something like
Provides color
in local layout.
See Help > Customization for more information.
Please let the list know if you try it and it works.
Best,

(I.e. > C:\programs\something\python ) I checked all settings in Tools->Preferences->File Handling in a native Win7 LyX installation (version 2.1.2) but I could not find any mistake. These are the converter commands: for FIG->EPS: fig2dev -L eps $$i $$o for FIG->PDFTEX: python -tt $$s/scripts/fig2pdftex.py $$i $$o As stated before, the preview in LyX works perfectly. If I hit the shortcut key CTRL+T for PS preview I realize a command beginning with "python -tt ..." in the status bar and immediately the ghostview is launched to display the temporarily produced PS file. In LyX the path prefix starts with "$LyXDir\bin;$LyXDir\Python;$LyXDir\Python\Lib; ... ". However, if I try to generate the PDF file I always get the pdfTeX error "... .pdftex_t' not found." As stated before, in a fedora-vbox I do not experience this problem (with LyX 2.1.1). Thanks for help in advance. Jens

You need to provide a definition with \DeclareInputText or \DeclareInputMath
before using this key.
If it matters, the bibliography environment is the same in this document
as it is in another document which does compile.

Finding cause of error preventing preview
Near the top of my document I have a citation imported from JabRef. When I
try to compile the document as a dvi preview an error is generated and a

The citation above the blocked text is not from Ecology and I cannot find
that reference in the JabRef database.
Please provide suggestions how I can find the source of this error.

From what I understand, LyX respects the class defaults, which in my opinion is what it should do. If you are writing an article for a journal whose document class has figures aligned to the left, they probably would not appreciate it if LyX changed that, or any other stylistic element. It would lead to an inconsistent journal edition. Best, Scott
Re: Center All Graphics
Centering the graphics in floats automatically is easy: Just add
\usepackage{floatrow}
to the preamble. I just made a module that does this and it's a quick fix
to everything. However, for this lab notebook I am making, I want to
quickly add graphics and not worry about having to center them or put them
into floats (and all of the formatting jazz that goes with it).

Re: Center All Graphics
Better yet, why doesn't LyX center graphics (at least in floats) by
default? It centers captions by default, so why not graphics? This
inconsistency has long annoyed me...

Center All Graphics
Hello,
I am trying to create a modification that will center all graphics
automatically. How would I go about doing this? I tried
adding \usepackage{floatrow} to the LaTeX preamble but this only centers
graphics put into floats. Any ideas?

Re: lyx on the "cloud"
I use dropbox for something similar. That also means that your .lyx folder should also be on there and any changes you make to the default configuration are synced. ~Ben On Wed, Oct 1, 2014 at 8:12 AM, Helge Hafting wrote: > > Den 25. sep. 2014 12:06, skrev Renato Pontefice: > > Hi, > I would use Lyx everywhere.
