Re: Too large space before cross-references?

[Neal Becker]

In my opinion a full space is proper here, although I'd usually put a tie.
Usually want to prevent line break before a number.

You might want to file a bug report so we don't forget about this
(please remove the preamble code when you attach the file). I can
reproduce that I get an error with the .lyx file, but I don't know what
the root issue is.

I'm a bit puzzled, too, why one would want a half space there. But it is
customizable. How depends upon whether you are using refstyle or
prettyref. For refstyle:

\newref{tab}{name = {table\thinspace{}}, Name = {Table\thinspace{}}}

Etc, if you want to redefine for the plural case.

For prettyref:

\newrefformat{tab}{Table\thinspace\ref{#1}}

Re: Too large space before cross-references?

[Bernd]

In German, a thin space is used between abbreviations and numbers:

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmales_Leerzeichen

Now "table" is not an abbreviation, so I am not sure what do here...

A full space just feels too much, but maybe it's just me.

In "see table 1.1", table and 1 should be set with a half space, not a
full space.

Of course I can set it manually every time, but I would prefer a more
integrated solution...

Anybody has this issue?

A normal (non-breakable) space is appropriate in German typography. A
small space would be too narrow.

Looks like the old 4.1 layout is still valid also for 4.2.
The only difference is the the use of revtex4.2 class instead of revtex4.1
The attached may be enough ...

Copy the 3 files to your userdir/layouts (on unix most probably ~/.lyx/layouts)
and do a 'Tools->Reconfigure' in lyx.
Restarting lyx, you should be able to use the class.

Fixed in master at
https://www.lyx.org/trac/changeset/c0adb03a7ae15cf6409ee3cb64f4cc91c24c052e/lyxgit

We use now the macros with headings in hyperref.

Could be backported to stable.
