pdf graphics don't display in lyx 1.6.2
If I create a figure float and insert a pdf graphic in it using lyx 1.6.2 I consistently get an error message saying it can't convert the file to a loadable format. The graphic prints fine but it doesn't show up in the Lyx editor. In Lyx 1.6.1 the same pdf file loads and displays in Lyx with no problem. How can I fix this? I'm running Windows XP service pack 3. -brian

RE: using ACM SIGGRAPH layout
I followed the instructions on http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/AcmSiggraph:
downloaded the latest acmsiggraph latex files and installed them in Miktex, and
copied the acmsiggraph.layout file into the lyx layouts direct, ran reconfigure.
Now a new document class shows up article (ACM SIGGRAPH). When I set this as
my document type and try to view the output, using either pdf or dvi, I get the
following latex error messages:
Errors:
Undefined control sequence.
You can't use '\relax' after \the
Undefined control sequence.
You can't use '\relax' after \the
Description:
\bibitem{Goldstein}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., '\hobx'), type 'I' and the correct
speelling (e.g., 'I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was defined.
No pdf or dvi file ever gets generated.
If I use the article document class then everything works fine, including the
bibliography. Of course then it's not in the format I want.

using ACM SIGGRAPH layout
I am using lyx version 1.6 on Windows XP. I want to use the ACM SIGGRAPH document class. It shows up in the drop-down menu for document classes but it's listed like this: Unavailable:ACM SigGraph. This looked ominous but I selected it anyway and got the following error message: the document class acmsiggraph could not be loaded. What does this mean? How does lyx determine which document classes are available and which aren't? It seems strange that it would know this document class existed but would not allow me to choose it. Is there some easy way to make it available? -brian

suppressing captions in some floats
I want to insert program listings into my document. I don't want the program listings to be broken across pages so I put them inside figures. Now each program listing has a figure label and number which I don't want. Is there some way for me to insert these listings inside a float and suppress the caption printing of just that float? -brian This e-mail was created using speech recognition software.

marginal notes not formatting correctly
From: Brian Guenter Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2008 10:57 AM To: 'lyx-users@lists.lyx.org' Subject: marginal notes not formatting correctly I am using Lyx version 1.5.4 on windows XP with pdflatex for output. When I insert marginal notes into my document they do not format properly - the text in the marginal note runs off the bottom of the page instead of wrapping around to the next page. Also the text portion of the marginal note doesn't seem to be using all of the available margin space. Is this something that I can change or is it hardcoded?

new lines disappearing in program listings
I'm new to Lyx and I'm hoping that the problems I'm encountering are just due to my ignorance. I have a large existing code base in my development environment which I am going to be copying into my Lyx document as program listings. I had an existing Latex document with program listings in it using the lstlisting environment. When I imported this document into Lyx all of the newlines in the program listings disappeared. Similarly, if I copy code from my development environment (Visual Studio 2008) and paste it into a program listing block in Lyx all of the newlines are discarded. If I have a properly formatted program listing, with newlines, in a Lyx document and I export the Lyx document to a Latex file and then import the Latex file back into Lyx all of the newlines in program listing blocks disappear. It's terribly inconvenient and time-consuming to have to reinsert all of the newlines by hand and retyping the code in Lyx is also an unattractive option because I have so much of it and because this will certainly introduce transcription errors. Is this newline deletion a bug or is there something I can set to prevent the newlines from disappearing? This e-mail was created using speech recognition software. If the spelling, grammar, or wording seems strange it's the software's fault not mine.
