Hi Soumaya,

Does it work if you include the full path to the PDF file? If not can
you please send a minimal example? For more information see
http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/MinimalExample

Please respond to the list and not to me personally.

Best,

Scott

OK - thanks.  I think I can work around it then (all I need is 5).

  This is included in TeXlive, and version 20140524 of that is installed
here, along with custom-bib. I downloaded the PDF doc and will read that and
create the bibliography style I want.

Thanks for the pointer!

Charles,

  Well, that seems reasonable.


What you could use is the custom-bib package, a companion to natbib. It is
a special latex file. When you run latex on it, it will ask you many
questions and then spit a custom bst file. One of the questions is the
place of the 'year'.

Then you put your custom bst file in a place where LaTex can find it,
refresh the LaTex tree and you can use it in LyX.

Easier than learning BibLaTex


  I'll put this on my list of things to do this coming weekend.

Thanks,

Rich

Re: No export menus LyX 2.1.3 on Ubuntu 15.04 Beta 2

Like the rest of you I ran into this bug when I upgraded today.

The best workaround for now is to run lyx with the command line:
   QT_X11_NO_NATIVE_MENUBAR=1 lyx
or equivalently to adapt /usr/share/applications/lyx.desktop as follows:
   Exec=env QT_X11_NO_NATIVE_MENUBAR=1 lyx %F

The bug most probably comes from the package indicator-appmenu. You can
also follow the discussion there



A quick update: the bug is now fixed in Wily, and as indicated in the 
bug report, the deb file from Wily can be used on vivid without problem. 
I did that on my laptop and I have a functional LyX again.


What we need now is a real backport for vivid, but for some reason this 
is not happening.

"file not found" error from the pdftex.def package

[Soumaya Msalmi]

Hello

I am trying to include a .pdf file using
\includegraphics[width=2.2cm]{./Bilder/template/Logo_FTM_Header_neu.pdf}

It results in a "file not found" error from the pdftex.def package. How to
solve this?

Thank you very much.

Best regards,
Soumaya Msalmi.

Solution: add "noprefix" to Document > Settings > Class > Class Options (see

Explanation: By default, nomencl prepends all entries with the prefix "a",
except if you define an individual prefix for an entry via the optional argument
""Sort as" in LyX). So, in your document, you get the sort key aA, , aD, aE,
aD, aZ, Drosophila, Helianthus annuus.
The "noprefix" option switches this automatism off. No prefixes are prepended
automatically. The nomencl manual explains why this is so.

(I suppose the LyX User Guide should clarify this).

Thanks, Jürgen, for explaining it. Glad it works now. Will go through 
the User Guide and hope to understand the magic behind it.

This is not a minimal example. I would need to delete many graphic insets for 
which the files are not available in order to compile, which I am not going to 
do.

Check if the non-emphasized have some other markup (via the Source Preview).

I am including a minimal example.
I have followed Jürgens advice:

Use the "Sort as" field in the nomenclature dialog

result: the emphasized words are at the end of the glossary.

Without it the emphasized words are at the begin of the glossary.

Thanks for your attention
