Re: Removing period following section reference

[Christos Makridis]

Hey Steve and everyone,

Yes sorry, let me be more explicit. First, see the screenshot below -- this
is what I get showing right now.

[image: Inline image 1]


Now, with that in mind, notice the two periods -- the problem is whenever I
reference that appendix section, i.e. \ref{subsec:AAA}, it references A1.3
with a period at the end, rather than just A1.3

What I'd like to do is remove that period whenever referencing something
from the Appendix -- or any section (even if not in the appendix) for that
matter.

Removing period following section reference

[Christos Makridis]

Hey Lyx Community,

I've spent some time searching online for a resolution to this, but haven't
found much.

The issue is as follows.

Suppose I write a section in the appendix (insert appendix here) like:

\section{data details}
\label{sec:data}

But then I refer to:

Appendix Section \label{sec:data}

It will show up as Appendix Section A1*.*

Note that lyx places the period there automatically even if I do not put
one.

Does anyone know how to remove that?

Thank you as always for your expertise!

Thanks. Yes, its 2.3beta1 from the website. Unfortunately, there are
no such lines in configre.py.


Ah ... The simple reason is that the Windows fixes for the Inkscape 
template went in after beta1 was released. So you will have to wait for 
the next (rc1?) release. Sorry.

Good to know.

The check for a SVG -> PDFTeX converter ans a SVG -> PSTeX converter is 
supposed to happen between these two checks.


The question is why this is not the case for you.

Please check: Do you really run a recent (enough) version of LyX? I 
suppose this is LyX 2.3beta1 (the Windows installer), but please open 
the configre.py file (in your case: C:/Users/Daniel/AppData/Local/LyX

the following lines:

1. Do you have inkscape installed?
2. Which converter do you have set in preferences for SVG -> PDFTEX? It
looks like this uses convertDeafult, whereas it should use inkscape.
