Change chapter number as displayed in LyX
Hello, I'm interrupting a numbered chapter with an unnumbered chapter, and I would like to continue sections within that previous numbered chapter. I've done this on the output side with \setcounter{part}, but in LyX the chapter number is still incremented. I've fixed this for the first instance using the local layout Counter part InitialValue 12 End but I haven't found a way to give LyX a command mid-document to adjust numbering. Is this currently supported? Thanks, Matt -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
Downloaking MikTeX failed, installer using wrong download path?
Does the LyX installer for Windows need to change the path for downloading miktex from "/get/systems/win32/miktex/setup" to "/systems/win32/miktex/setup"? When I tried to install LyX 1.6.9-2 for Microsoft Windows using the standard installer (ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.6.9/LyX-1.6.9-2-Installer.exe), the installer reported the error "Downloading MikTeX failed". I reran the installer while taking a network trace and saw the following error: 1910 71.947625171.71.137.121 171.70.168.183 DNS Standard query A www.ctan.org 1911 72.047106171.70.168.183 171.71.137.121 DNS Standard query response CNAME alan.smcvt.edu A 192.80.64.33 1915 72.136694171.71.137.121 192.80.64.33 HTTP GET /get/systems/win32/miktex/setup/basic-miktex-2.9.3972.exe HTTP/1.0 1918 72.282413192.80.64.33 171.71.137.121 HTTP HTTP/1.1 404 NOT FOUND (text/html) I then went to the miktex web site and checked it's download page. I didn't see alan.smcvt.edu listed as a mirror, so I tried using "ctan.mackichan.com", again while taking a network trace. This time, I saw: 94 4.739099 171.71.137.121 171.70.168.183 DNS Standard query A ctan.mackichan.com 96 4.896114 171.70.168.183 171.71.137.121 DNS Standard query response A 50.17.254.94 102 4.975983 171.71.137.121 50.17.254.94 HTTP GET /systems/win32/miktex/setup/basic-miktex-2.9.4106.exe HTTP/1.0 ...followed by a stream of data.

undefined control sequence with pdflatex but not with dvipdfm
Hi, this i probably only indirectly related to lyx, but i thought there are some experts on this list who might have an answer. I downloaded the powerdot presentation (see here: http://www.ctan.org/tex- archive/macros/latex/contrib/powerdot/lyx/) i opened it up in lyx and used pdflatex on it, which then gave me many 'undefined control sequence' errors. When i did file->export-?pdf(dvipdfm) and then opened the resulting pdf file it worked right out of the box. I was under the impression that pdflatex is equivalent to dvipdfm except for the intermediate dvi output. I am using lyx: v1.6.5, pdflatex: pdfTeX 3.1415926-1.40.10-2.2 (TeX Live 2009/Debian) kpathsea version 5.0.0 Copyright 2009 Peter Breitenlohner (eTeX)/Han The Thanh (pdfTeX). There is NO warranty.

using multiple files for document->problem with document class(es)
Hi, i am writing a document that is broken up into multiple files. I include these files via Insert->File->Child Document. The problem is this: I select a given document class for the main document. The child documents have the main document as their master document selected. The problem is when i create a the pdf document it gives me a warning for each included child document that the document classes between the main document and the child document are not same. I would have expected that by selecting a main document the settings such as the document class would be taken over by the child document. Apparently this is not the case since i get the warning. Am i doing something wrong? thanks matt ps: i am running lyx1.6.5

lyx with cv modern doc class on ubuntu 10.04
Hi, i am using lyx (1.6.5) with ubuntu 10.04. I am trying to use the modern cv document class to do a resume. When i try to compile it i get error: undefined control sequence \begin{document} 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 spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue, and I'll forget about whatever was undefined. I tried to google but did not find anything helping me to resolve this. Any insight is appreciated. thanks matt
Re: lyx 1.6: changes to eqnarray numbering; idea for insert matrix dialog
hi uwe, many thanks for your reply. Bit this was not changed. Use Ctrl+N to change all line numberings or Ctrl+Shift+N for only the current line. for me, ctrl-n or ctrl-shift-n brings up a new buffer. what is the actual lyx command for line numberings? the only one i have found is math-number-toggle which does not have the right functionality. also, as an aside, could we get a dialog box for matrix sizes as easy to use as the one for tables? We have this, use the matrix button in the math toolbar. (The toolbar automatically appears when you are in a formula.) for me, in the matrix dialog, i have to manually click to get the right number of rows and columns.clicking and dragging to resize the displayed empty matrix does nothing, unlike in the case for inserting a table. i hope this explains my issues a bit better! best, matt.
lyx 1.6: changes to eqnarray numbering; idea for insert matrix dialog
i'm very happy with most of the changes in lyx 1.6 and i have spent quite a bit of time updating my cua.bind file. i am a bit confused by a change in equation numbering functionality however and would appreciate it enormously if someone could help me. i am ok with toggling as opposed to off/on, but now it seems lyx toggles numbering for *all* equations in eqnarray, not just individual lines. i really need to be able to turn off numbering for some lines and not others! also, as an aside, could we get a dialog box for matrix sizes as easy to use as the one for tables? thanks for any and all help, matt. p.s. i am running a fink port of lyx-x11 1.6.1 on a mac 10.4.11, if this is of any relevance.

lyx to odf conversion
Hello, I would like to convert my lyx document to an ODF document. The reason is that I have someone who wants to proof read and correct one of my documents ... unfortunatly they use Microsoft word. In the past I havn't found any good methods for converting ... I thought that perhaps ODF would be the way to go ... I believe they have a plugin for MS Word ... so all I have to do is work out how to get from lyx or tex to ODF ...

APA style with two authors

Parts and Sections numbering
Dear List, A (hopefully) simple question: Using Lyx, how do "re-start" the numbering of sections for different parts? viz: Part 1: Secn 1 Secn 2 Secn 3 Part 2: Secn 1 Secn 2 Part 3: Secn 1 Secn 2 Thanks for your help, Matt
Natbib and updating the .bib file
Dear List, I've been having some problems with LyX and Natbib. I've been exchanging a document with a colleague, so we can both work on it. We're using Natbib and the \citet command for the citations, but when we output a dvi, we get (author?) [12] in front of some of the citations. I've tried to sort this out - is this an issue with the .bib file, or something else. Ideas? Also, if I use a bibliography, and then change the .bib file, the updates often don't appear in the dvi/ pdf. I have to delete the /tmp/lyx directories, and then do it. Is there anyway of 'forcing' lyx to look at the .bib file again? Thanks a lot, Matt
Installing new packages
Dear List, Can anyone explain to me how to install new packages for use with LyX?

Help with alignat ?
Hi Guys, You guessed it: I need help. I want to use lyx to align an array of equations of the form: y1=d1 on x1=e1 y2=d2 on x2=e2 Here d* and e* are variable length expressions. To do this I chose 5 fields with alignment rlcrl. No matter what I do, I cannot get the last field to appear in dvi with a left alignment! I am using lyx 1.3.5. Let me know what I can do or provide to help me get to the bottom of this! Thanks for your time, Matt Find local movie times and trailers on Yahoo! Movies. http://au.movies.yahoo.com
questions
Hi, I was using Lyx 1.2.1 and I was having a problem in which all my embedded references were cited as [?] instead of the number, e.g. [42]. I am using Bibtex and the references all appear correctly in the bibliography at the end of the document. I thought I would upgrade my version, so I downloaded qt (I was previously using Xforms) and compiled it; it said it installed correctly. Then I compiled 1.3.1 from the source RPM for the QT version (I'm running RedHat 7.3) and it seemed to install OK. But when I try to run it it crashes and does a core dump. See below. My X server is X-Win32 v. 6.0 on a PC. Thanks in advance for any help you could render.

natbib vs. harvard BibTeX styles
Folks, I've been using harvard BibTeX styles, particularly b/c I like the implementation of the \citepossesive{Smit90}, e.g 'Smith's (1990) data shows that ...' However, I noticed that natbib is supported in LyX so I thought I'd investigate that style package. While natbib provides many options, it looks like a possessive cite would have to involve two commands: \citeauthor{Smit90}'s \citeyearpar{Smit90} to get 'Smith's (1990)' Does anyone know of a simpler way to do possessive cites in natbib? Or is there any move to incorporate harvard styles into LyX? Because that window which allows for searching one's .bib file within LyX is really handy Regards, Matt >>>>-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-*-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-<<<< Environmental Fluid Mechanics Lab, Rm. 524K Civil & Environmental Engineering ph#: 650/725.5948 Stanford University [EMAIL PROTECTED] Stanford, CA 94305-4020 fluid.stanford.edu/~mbrennan

I already have these lines in my local math.bind When I type "M-m g a" when inside a math box, all I get is a regular letter "a", not an alpha. When I type this in normal text mode, I get a blue math box and then the normal letter "a" preceding the math box even though I typed the "a" last. The capital Greeks (mis)behave similarly. mb -@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-*-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@- Environmental Fluid Mechanics Lab, Rm. 524K Civil & Environmental Engineering ph#: 650/725.5948 Stanford University [EMAIL PROTECTED] Stanford, CA 94305-4020 fluid.stanford.edu/~mbrennan

However, the memory issue suggests to me that there might be something wrong with your temp directory. This is where LyX stores the images it converts to its native format.

Then when I ran rpm to install with the --nodeps option so that rpm wouldn't check the RPM database. mb On Wed, 12 Jun 2002, belahcene abdelkader wrote: > hi, > > I 've installed the lyx 1.1.6 without problem in > redhat 7.2. > When I tryed to install the lyx-1.2.0-1.i386.rpm the > following message is outed > libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3 > > This library refers to and older version of redhat ( > 6.x).

Lyx 1.2 figure "Error converting to loadable format"
A stumble in upgrading to Lyx 1.2.0: Figures are not rendered within LyX. Instead, I merely get a message "Error converting to loadable format". Runnign 'lyx -dbg graphics' and then opening the LyX User's Guide and then scrolling to the section on figures yields: Attempting to convert image file: /usr/share/lyx/doc/mobius.eps with recognised extension: eps.

Thanks, Matt (I apologize for not continuing the thread "images in pre-1.2.0 LyX docs" which begins to address this problem. I'm new to the user list and couldn't figure out how to perpetuate a thread to a message I hadn't received.) >>>-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-*-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-@-<<< Environmental Fluid Mechanics Lab - Suite 524K Dept. of Civil & Environmental Engineering Stanford University [EMAIL PROTECTED] Stanford, CA 94305-4020 ph#: 650/725.5948
bibtex bibliography in TOC
Hi, How do I insert a reference to a Bibtex bibliography in the Table of Contents of a report. I tried using an \addcontentsline command (with the proper arguments) right before the icon for the Bibtex generated references, but that inserted a reference in the table of contents with a page number which was the last page of the final chapter. Thanks. Matt Zeidenberg University of Wisconsin
question
Hi, I don't like where Lyx is doing the line breaks in some of my section headings in a report I'm writing. I have a section called "The Term Vector Model of Document Similarity" and it is breaking the line right after the "Sim" in Similarity and hyphenating there. I can break it after "Model" using a TeX "//", which works fine, and looks good in the text, but the trouble is, this then breaks up the entry in my Table of Contents into 2 lines, which doesn't look good. I want the Table of Contents entry to stay on one line while the text version is on two. Is this possible? Thanks.
Re: question
A short example file is attached. Note that the tables jump from 1.2 to 1.4 and that the title on the top of the page runs right into the page number. Thanks for looking into this. And thanks for the pointers on page numbers.

In the classic studies of relevance feedback, a set of results to a query are presented to the user, and the user marks some of these as relevant or non-relevant. Terms drawn from those documents tagged as relevant are used to refine the query. This has been shown to improve the precision of retrieval (that is, the percentage of documents returned that are relevant). \layout Standard Precision and recall are useful concepts when you have a fixed number of documents that fit into any category. In that case, as is conventional in the literature, precision is defined as a the percentage of the retrieved documents that fall into the desired category (that is, are relevant to a particular information need, as defined by the user or a predefined expert assignment), and recall is defined as the percentage of the relevant documents that have been retrieved. In the Web context, where the number of documents in any particular category tends to grow monotonically over time, achieving high precision (so as to have a low signal-to-noise ratio for the user) and finding a large number of highly relevant documents, and ranking them well, is more important than having high overall recall, since most users won't be able to process any but the most highly relevant documents. Thus precision usually becomes more important than recall, since there is usually a flood of information on any topic, more than any one person can process. \layout Standard In the interest of discovering what features contribute to high levels of precision and high mean relevance of returned documents, I conducted the following experiment. I used a set of 500 manually-selected documents, all on public policy topics related to Wisconsin, 100 each on the following topics: Wisconsin Economy, Wisconsin Education, Wisc
question
Hi, I have been using Lyx to write a long document (my CS PhD thesis) for some time now and really love it. Thanks much to all who worked on Lyx's development. I'm using Lyx 1.1.6fix3 on RedHat Linux 7.1. I have a few questions/problems. In my document, I have a point at which the tables start spontaneously numbering by 2 instead of one (i.e. table 12, table 14, table 16). Up to that point, they were numbering by increments of one. I have tried deleting the table floats and reinserting them and that didn't help. If I change the document format to "book" from article and change all the sections to chapters, it numbers the tables by chapter but it still skips (in this case from 5.2 to 5.4 (formerly 12 and 14)). (However the former 16 is now 6.1 and is OK). Does anyone know why this could be happening? There is no table intervening between the two that could be causing the skip. Also, is there any way to get page numbers to appear centered in the bottom middle of the page? And to get it to skip page numbering on blank pages (skip both assigning a number and printing it, when in book format?) And I notice that long chapter titles, when printed at the top of the page, tend to run into the page number if if is also printed at the top, creating an ugly effect. This occurs in chapter 4 of the User's Guide for Lyx, e.g. on page 70 of the version I have. Is there any thing to do about this, other than shortening the chapter titles? Thanks, Matt Zeidenberg University of Wisconsin
Re: lyx.org domain fee
May I also recommend that the project register a domain name with the OpenNIC project. OpenNIC is an alternative DNS root server. They operate a .oss TLD for open source software projects. Registration is free. The webmaster (or someone) just needs to join OpenNIC (a simple matter of filling out a form) and email the .oss maintainer. Next thing we know, all OpenNIC users will be able to resolve lyx.oss! More information on OpenNIC can be found at their web site. http://www.opennic.unrated.net Just a suggestion.

tables and fonts
Hello all. I have a quick question about the sizes of my characters in a table I'm working on. I have created this rather large table, and would now like to set the font size to 'smaller' in order to make it fit on to my page. In my older version of lyx (1.1.5), I could simply select the table, and then choose Layout->Character->Size->Smaller, hit apply and I was done. This no longer seems to be something easily done in lyx 1.1.6. I guess my question is, do I really have to go into every cell of the table, select the text and then set the font size to smaller? That seems rather difficult. Matt Norton
Quick newbie question
Hello everyone. I've just upgraded to v. 1.1.6, and am now getting a sort of strange error. I'm working on a simple text file with a table, and when I try View-->Postscript, or PDF, I get the following error: !Latex Error: Something's wrong -- perhaps a missing \item. See the LaTeX manual . I.116 \end {tabular}\par} Try typing to proceed. etc., etc. Now, I don't know a whole hell of a lot about LaTeX, but it strikes me as strange that this error pops up in the middle of a paragraph of text, and not next to a table. Even weirder, I could export the file as latex, and then run latex, and subsequently dvi and dvipdf. Is this something intrinsic to 1.1.6? Have I made a rookie mistake? Have I totally misunderstood (wouldn't be the first time). Matt

I normally use the postscript printer driver to export a ps snapshot, then include that in the LyX doc as a figure ps. This works fine. If you really need eps, you can convert from ps using ps2epsi, convert or somesuch.

Request for feature...
Hi everyone. I discovered LyX about 2 months ago, and I love it. I'm writing my dissertation with it now, and it's wonderful. I would like to suggest a modification, however. At the moment, Lyx requires a display even for export to LaTeX. This means that if I am connected over a slow link I can't export another version of my document for download or emailing, which is a minor annoyance. In particular, I have a script that exports a version of the document to many formats (dvi, html, ps, pdf, txt), and I would like to put this on a nightly cron job, so my current draft will be avialable to the faculty at all times, in a variety of formats. But the display requirement means I can't export the initial .tex file that I need for the script unless I am actually logged in. (running on Linux, heavily-modified RH 6.0) If anyone has a suggestion, please let me know. Otherwise, this is simply a request. A polite one, I hope. I find LyX extrmemely useful, and very well-designed. Many thanks to all responsible. Matt Bandy http://inti.devnull.net

Hi, I have just compiled and installed the LyXC version 1.0.4. It works fine. I can't seem to find a foils lyx template. When I try to view the LyX Foils.lyx example I get many errors like : LyX: Unknown textclass `foils' [around line 4 of file /usr/local/lyx-1.0.4/share/lyx/examples/Foils.lyx] on the command line. I find that foils is installed in : /usr/lib/texmf/tex/latex/foiltex and a sample foiltex tex file can actually be processed properly by latex ! any suggestions ? till later Matt
