Use two different classes in one document
Hi, for my thesis I need to append a curriculum vitae at the end of the document. As a addicted lyx user, I wrote my cv with lyx :-). How can I append the cv to my document (KOMA article)? -j

Sorting entries in a table
Hi, how can I sort the entries within a table? ASCII on b|bla|blubb a|blubb|bla I want it to be sorted like: a|blubb|bla b|bla|blubb I figured out that makeindex is probably the right choice, but I am not experienced enough to use it. . . Is there a way to do that? -j

Need to use \typearea when using \setspace
Hi,
when using onehalfspacing in koma-article class , is it necessary to use
\typearea[current]{calc} in the preamble, as proposed in the koma-script
documentation? This leads to very large margin in the .dvi - to large for my
taste. Or is the calclation done in a correct way?

nomencl.sty/several question to typography
Hi,
after playing around with nomencl.sty (thanks Herbert!), I did not manage to
produce an abbreviation index in a table. The example in the manual did not
work, and I am completely lacking of any TeX knowledge (this is why I use
lyx :-) )
So does anyone have a nomencl.sty with working tables? I would like to produce
something like:
Abbrv.| Unit|description
And some questions to typography (if this is offtopic, just ignore it :-) )
1) I need to use onehalfspaced text for writing a biological/medical thesis.
Currently I am using the report/kome-script class. What, in your opinion, is
the best font size and page margin (on a4 paper) to use?
Using the defaults on onehalfspaced text looks a little bit strange for my
taste. . .
2) At the moment, I am using the Mathmode to produce text like: (Mathmode on)
SK_{Ca^{2+}} (mathmode off)-Channel. Is this the right way or is it usual to
do it in normal text mode?
Thanks for your answers!

nomencl.sty
Hi,
I am trying to get the nomencl.sty package to work. I need to create a list
with the used abbreviatons, in a table and sorted by Name
[ASCII art]
Abbreviation Unit Description
bla b Blabla
In the preamble I wrote:
\usepackage{nomencl}
\makeglossary
Then, where the list should magically appear:
\printglossary
The used abbrevations where described like this:
\nomenclature{AHP}{afterhyperpolarisation}
DVI preview did not bring any error, nor did it bring any abbreviations.
When I use the tips at www.texni.de, the latex run brings an error:
! Unable to read an entire line---bufsize=20.
Please increase buf_size in texmf.cnf.
Had that before, yesterday. But the ps preview under lyx works fine, so I
really do not know what to do...
Anyone any ideas?

Re: using \figcaption as ERT

I solved this issue. I used copy and paste to place my texts into the ERT. Well, there where some %-signs in it and as I found out (in the middle of the night, aargh) this is the control sequence to that makes latex treat the rest as an comment. Easy, but hard to find for an ERT beginner. I wrote a wiki on this issue, I would be happy if somebody reads and corrects it. http://wiki.lyx.org/pmwiki.php/Tips/PlacingFiguresAndProducingLegends -j
using \figcaption as ERT
Hi,
after Herbert gave me the hint using the nonfloat package (thanks again), I
got another problem.
I replaced the text describing the figures with
[ERT]
\begingroup\par
singlespacing
\figcaption [short description] {long blabla}
\endgroup
When I do a div preview (or postscript), only the first 28 pages are
displayed. When I run an exportet .tex manually, I get the following error:
! Unable to read an entire line---bufsize=20.
Please increase buf_size in texmf.cnf.
Google means that this means my lines are to long. Fine, but inserting a
couple of returns does not change anything.
Any ideas? I would like to get my whole text, actually. . .
If somebody needs the .tex, I will email it because it is larger than 60 kb.

Splitting figures describing text
Hi, I got a problem with text describing my figures in a float. A large text below the figures is not placed onto a new page, but is cut off after the page ends. Site numbering is completely ignored, the text is placed over it. I will try to draw an ASCII example :-) -- | | | fig | | | | | - Text Text Text Text Text Text ^ Sitenumber is placed inside the describing text. So I would like to tell Lyx/Latex that it should break the text from the figure to a the new page. There is no way to describe the figures in a more compressed manner (at least not for me :-) ) or shrink the images. Another way would be to change the line space to normal, I have to use 12 pt/two lines format for this document. Any help is really appreciated (deadline is end of august ;-)) ) -j

Creating figures - replacing nativ text with latex text
Hi, after I created figures with Microcal Origin 4.11/5.0/6.0 (buggy! bad .eps support!) I figured out that it is possible to replace the texts in .eps files it with native latex font, which probably will look far better than this Arial 12 pt. Do you replace fonts in graphs etc. on a regular basis? Are there any flaws? I am thinking of overlapping fonts and so on. -j
View of Lyx
Hi, because I can better concentrate when reading a real piece of paper, I often print out several pages of my thesis to correct them manually and then transfer the corrections back into the lyx document. When doing this, it is a little bit annonying to orientate in the text on the screen because the screen view is totally different from the print version. Is it somehow configurable to let the text on screen appear a little bit more like the printed version? I know that the typesetting is done by latex; but IMHO it should be possible to somehow "guess" how the document will probably look like. TIA -j
Change the font for a document from default to helvetica
Hi, I need to change the font in my document from default (times) to helvetica. When I change it, the text appears to be helv, but things like "Table", the page number and "figures" set by lyx are still the default. This looks a little bit ugly, is it possible to change that? -j
Bug when merging multiple lyx files

blue underlines

Preview of .ps files is not accurate
Hi, I have a problem with the preview of .ps Files. The preview is not accurate at all, the right border seems to be cut off a bit, though in the generated postscript is all right.
