Vs: How to use Enhant on Lyx
Yes, Hunspell is that bad when it comes to Finnish, in fact I'm not sure the dictionaries for Finnish even exist for Hunspell. I probably could try to install Ubuntu (I don't have enough space on my C drive so I'll have to find out if I can put it on my D drive, I have no previous experience using Linux). I hope support for Enchant will be added on the Windows installers of Lyx - I'm not a programmer so there is no hope that I myself could do it at the moment. >Hi, what's your language? Finnish? Is it really that bad with Hunspell?
Re: Change between latex distributions
> You have to add that path to Tools->Preferences->Paths->PATH prefix... > pay attention to use posix paths... Thank you very much :-) Meanwhile I succeeded. My path from the default Texlive Cygwin Install was /usr/local/texlive/2010/bin/i386-cygwin Then I made Tools->Reconfigure and rebooted Lyx. Now I made Tools->TeX Information and checked "Show Path" Now there was still shown the old path: /usr/share... Now I had to press button "Rescan". Then I really get the new path /usr/local/texlive... (That was my Problem: I always omitted this step because I thought intuitively that Tools->Reconfigure would do everything)
Change between latex distributions
Hallo, I installed the new lyx 1.6.9 and texlive 2010 in cygwin. However, lyx uses always the old tetex-distribution.contained in cygwin. Is there a possibility to change between distributions? AFAIK, there must be a setting "path to latex.exe" or similar... But I absolutely didn't find it. Regards
Re: lyx freezes during \"HTML (MS WORD)\" export
Hallo, I had similar problems of the export (Word HTML), with Lyx 1.6.8, as described here. First, I wanted to tell, that it is not bad to have both configurations: - HTML (with elyxer) is more stable and works out of the box - HTML, Word (with htlatex) recognises more packages (if it works.) Apparently, Htlatex recognises more packages. For example, in my tests I found: If I have author - year - citation with package "natbib", then elyxer exports only numbers [1], [2],. but htlatex exports the correct citations (author, 2011). So, I undertook the effort to configure htlatex. For my Windows system, I found that the missing points of the configuration of htlatex are as follows: - in the converter I need htlatex $$i "html,word" "symbol/!" "-cvalidate" (with double quotes instead of single quotes for windows) - you must assure, that the program ImageMagick is installed and in the system path (or in the PATH prefix of LyX). With the Lyx for Windows AltInstaller this is done automatically. - In the LaTeX distribution the packages containing "tex4ht" must be installed. If MikTeX is used (not texlive), then the file htlatex.bat has to be corrected: In the last two lines, there are wrong paths. For a standard installation, I corrected to tex4ht %1 -i/tex4ht/ht-fonts/%3 -ewin32/tex4ht.env t4ht %1 %4 -e"C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\tex4ht\base\win32\tex4ht.env" After these corrections, everything worked fine on my system. In case of trouble, start LyX from a dos window, then the error messages can be seen. If there is an error with "convert.exe", then ImageMagick is not properly installed. If there is an error "tex4ht.env not found", the paths in htlatex.bat are incorrect. Finally two other remarks: - To open the document from elyxer in Word: Open in Firefox, then make a copy with "save as", document type "website complete". This copy can directly be opened in Word. Also, the graphics and the .css file are copied in a suitable subdirectory. - As a very easy to use converter, I found that tth ( tex to html ) is very good. Export your document from lyx into latex, then execute "tth -e2 document.tex". Gives a very good html Document (similar to elyxer). Regards

Missing files In TEMP dir
Hallo, As LaTeX user I tested the LyX program, converting a document It is a nice program, thank you. I had one major problem: Some files of the document directory (the .bib file with its original name, modified .sty files, and so on) were not copied into the temp dir. Therefore, I had to install the modified style file into localtexmf, copy the .bib file after each start of lyx into the temp dir. (I need it e.g. because of packages multibib, pdfx.) My request: It would be great, if there would be just two checkboxes in the document settings x copy all files from document directory to tempdir x include subdirectories Maybe a security question showing the number of files) Then the compilation of the document would really be equivalent to Latex. Regards

I will simply answer myself :) Running reconfigure is not enough, I should have read http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/German this page first to learn that I have to go to Tools -> TeX Information and search for the desired bibliography style there.

Cross-reference

LyX can’t find sprachwerker.bst
Hi everyone, I am trying to set up sprachwerker.bst for use in LyX, so I can use Natbib and a German bibliography style for linguistics (other than dinat and more Harvard-like). I installed it in ~/Library/texmf/bibtex/bst run sudo texhash and yes, kpsewhich sprachwerker.bst tells me, that it is exactly there. However, in LyX I cannot find it at all (although I ran Reconfigure several times). I tried to display the bibliography via ERT, manually choosing \bibliographystle{sprachwerker} and so on but it still does not work. I updated both MacTeX from 2007 to 2008 and LyX from 1.5.4 to 1.6.0 (all on latest Tiger/PPC) but the problem still exists. However, exporting to LaTeX and compiling through TeXShop works. I even restarted my computer and reconfigured LyX several times but the style still does not show up in LyX. What more can I do?

Re: Bad PDF generated from LyX
Never mind. The problem appears to be caused by the "binary" encoding format I selected. I selected ASCII encoding the problem has disappeared. Btw, for anyone who includes screenshots in their documents, enabling "Image Interpolation" in Photoshop EPS conversion will create a much better looking PDF file. Including bitmap files directly will lead to very fuzzy results when the PDF display resolution does not match the native capture resolution of the screenshot.

LyX 1.6 crash

Toolbar bug?
I am using LyX 1.6 on Windows Vista. If I have the three toolbar panels on three separate rows, it works fine. If I put two of them on one line, LyX will not be able to restore them correctly when I start it next time: the second one on the row will go all the way to the right and I cannot see any icons. Anyone else seeing this? Max
InsetLayout CharStyle:MenuItem
If I have "InsetLayout CharStyle:MenuItem", it works. If I have "InsetLayout CharStyle:Menu_Item" in a layout module, LyX displays it as a red box. I like the latter since it displays a space in the Edit->Text Style menu. Not sure why it would be red though. Any idea? I am using LyX 1.6 on Windows. Thanks. Max
Flex insets
In layout directory "stdinsets.inc", there are definitions of Info:menu, Info:shortcut, and Info:shortcuts. It appears that these are the ones to define the menu/shortcut styles in the help files. However, I don't see there is anyway to use these from LyX menu. Actually, the definitions in Logical Markup module is listed in Edit->Text Style. I am a little confused. Shouldn't these "Info:???" styles be available from the LyX Menu, like Algorithm, Box, ERT, etc? Or am I only supposed to copy them and make my own in a layout or module file? I am using lyx 1.6 on Windows. Thanks. Max
Symbol in manual

vref – Errors keep repeating
Dear LyX-users, I am about to finally finish my diploma thesis using LyX 1.5.5 (on latest OS X Tiger and MacTeX) and a highly customized setup (XeTeX, biblatex, the SVG-inclusion and so on) with the Memoir class. First of all, my work experience with LyX was really great so far and I don’t think, I will ever switch back to the solutions I used before (Word, OOWriter, Pages, Scribus and plain LaTeX). However, all through my work progress I had these vref-Errors fading in and out all the time. Usually, they could be fixed by deleting them and reinserting them again; in some cases where they could not be fixed, I tried not to bother and thought about simply writing them manually at the very end. But now there is this one error that I cannot solve, I cannot even find the proper the reference that it seems to refer to (even though double-clicking on the error seems to take me to the place in the LyX document): Package varioref Error: \vref } Please check the pages in question. You might need to replace the \vref or \vpageref by a normal \(page)ref to stop LaTeX running forever. My LyX preamble can be found here: http://www.unet.univie.ac.at/~a0303098/public/lyxpreamble.txt The error appears to happen somewhere here: falsch \emph default zu entscheiden und dass ein wohlgesonnener Einzelherrscher, der immer das Allgemeinwohl im Blick habe, hilfreich dabei sein könnte, die Gesellschaft in moderne Herrschaftsstrukturen zu überführen.

Can you please give more details on how this can be done? Well, the first thing you have to do is figure out how to do what you want to do in LaTeX. You'll need a command or environment that works like this, more or less: \begin{graphbox}[text goes here] %in here is the graphic you want to display, the way LyX would format it, e.g.: \includegraphics{graphics/brown} \end{graphbox} and the result should be the output you want. Once you've got that, turning it into a LyX layout isn't terribly hard. Have a look at the customization manual, if you haven't already. But something more or less like this will work: Style GraphicBox LatexType environment LatexName graphbox OptionalArgs 1 Preamble %here you'll include the LaTeX definitions you need EndPreamble End You can tweak this endlessly. rh

Is this possible? Yes, this can be done---anything you can do in LaTeX you can do in LyX---though not easily, because LyX does not support multi-argument commands or environments very well. But you could do it with a couple optional arguments to a command defined in a layout. What's not clear to me is how to deal with the image.

Go to LyX -> Document -> Settings -> Language and set the encoding to utf8x if it is not already set. That should help.

For Natbib you can set the style of in-text citations (via the preamble), which I assume you did, and set the style of the list of references by choosing a BibTeX-Style such as unsrt.bst. You will either need to find a style suiting your needs, or, if your needs are too special, make up your on style.

Many of the letters, such as in Madîna, ‘Â’ischa and so on (I have no idea, whether they will be displayed correctly on this list, in my mail client they do (Outlook users usually experience problems, e.g.)) simply were not displayed correctly any more. Anyway, when exporting the SVG in Inkscape to PDF, the fonts are automatically embedded (as far as I remember) and inserting the PDF in LyX is painless. My more simple graphics are still SVG directly in LyX, as it is more comfortable to only make changes in one file. Anyway, I think that Inkscape really is the problem here, not LyX. By the way, just for typographic reasons, you know of the typographic criticism of Arial, do you :)? Max
Re: Why do Inkscape drawing pixellate in LyX?
On 2008-03-17 13:28:38 +0100, Steve Litt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: Hi all, I have three Inkscape drawings. They pixellate very badly when I export them to .png and then include them in my LyX written book. When I export them to PDF they are pixellated but not as badly. Both text and curves pixellate. PNG is a bitmap-based format and not well suited for scaling. PDF or SVG are vector-based formats and are way better for scaling, the latter can theoretically be scaled any way you wish without loss of quality. These three drawings are simple cartoons, created by me. What's the best way to put an Inkcape drawn drawing into LyX? There is a nice page on Inkscape and LyX in the wiki: http://wiki.lyx.org/Tips/UseInkscapeSVGImages It works very well for me (though especially with fonts I have some difficulties sometimes but I guess thats because of the yet too bad port of Inkscape in OS X).

Re: LyX on Windows Vista

missing character (Lyx on Mac)
Hi everybody, I've just installed Lyx and even though things went fairly smooth, I'm struggling with a bunch of minor issues. (Using the latest Lyx version, Mac OS 10.4.2, Powerbook with a german keyboard. Gerben Wierda's TeX, ghostscript8, Freetype2, libiconf, libwmf, ImaheMagick, cm-super packages, ran the Lyx Installer script) - Lyx won't recognize the ^ key at all (as in x^3 for x cubed). It does recognizeshift ^ though, which correctly yields°on my german keyboard. - Whenever I click View -> DVI nothing happens. Am I not supposed to get some kind of window displaying the Latex source code??? I'm planning to word process my math assignments (bachelor of computer science), so any help is highly appreciated! Thanks again, Max
Re: About Beamer and Lyx
The situation is the following: - if I insert an EndFrame layout at the end of the document, I can compile and view the document w/o any problem. - if the EndFrame is inserted at the end of other frames and NOT at the end of the document, I can compile the lyx file but I can not see it with acroread. In particular latex issues an error ('"file ended while scanning use of \lyxframe.") but lyx does not recognize it and compiles further. - w/o any EndFrame layout lyx stops and issues an error ("Undefined control sequence. \lyxframeend").

About Beamer and Lyx
Hi everybody I think there is something wrong with Beamer class and Lyx. I have already found in the mailing list someone else having the same problems but I could not find the solution. In my case I have started to prepare a presentation (just title, authors and Outline section) and wanted to check if everything was ok. Therefore I have choosed View->PDF(pdflatex) and the error issued by latex was Undefined control sequence. \lyxframeend {}\section*{Outline} etc... I have compared a working presentation with this one and I have found in the Latex exported file that section %% Textclass specific LaTeX commands. \AtBeginDocument{ \let\origtableofcontents=\tableofcontents [EMAIL PROTECTED] {\gobbletableofcontents}} \def\gobbletableofcontents#1{\origtableofcontents} } \makeatletter [EMAIL PROTECTED]@lyxframestop}% [EMAIL PROTECTED]@ifnextchar<{\@@lyxframe}{\@@lyxframe<*>}}% \def\@@lyxframe<#1>[EMAIL PROTECTED]@@@lyxframe<#1>}{\@@@lyxframe<#1>[]}} \def\@@@lyxframe<#1>[EMAIL PROTECTED]<{\@lyxframe<#1>[} {\lyxframe<#1>[<*>][}} \def\@lyxframe<#1>[EMAIL PROTECTED]lyxframe<#1>[#2]} {\lyxframe<#1>[#2][]}} \long\def\lyxframe<#1>[EMAIL PROTECTED] \frame<#1>[#2][#3]{\frametitle{#4}#5}} \makeatother \newenvironment{centercolumns}{\begin{columns}[c]}{\end{columns}} \newenvironment{topcolumns}{\begin{columns}[t]}{\end{columns}} \def\lyxframeend{} % In case there is a superfluous frame end was missing. These commands are defined in the beamer.layout file and I suppose they should be inserted by Lyx in the temporary Latex file. The question is: why does Lyx sometimes export these commands and sometime it does not? I have exported today both presentations, I suppose there are some minor details in the skeleton presentation which issue an internal error in Lyx. Thanks a lot MAX

lyx file permission problem under cygwin
Hello, It seems that if the citation reference dialog opens a bibtex file to get the list of the keys, it keeps the bibtex file open. If I try to edit the bibtex file at the same time using another program, I am not able to save it. The error message is like "error 13, permission denied". I do not have this problem under linux, only under cygwin. Should the way lyx handles the bibtex file be changed? Read and close it immediately, and re-read only after a change is detected?

All chinese characters alone has meanings, thus individually correct. There is also no space between the words like English. So it will require some great AI in the spell-checking package to determine the phrase boundaries and check the phrases for misused word(s). It may also require the spell-checking software to know the Chinese grammer. A human is probably more reliable in this case for now. :) Max

"Dot not display" ignored.
I am not sure what's wrong. Lyx1.3 for Cygwin ignores the option "do not display" in the figure dialog and preference. It always trys to convert the figure and load it. Sometimes it stops at "loaded into memory, must now generate pixmap", sometimes it says "error loading...". All these are accompanied with lots disk spinning noise. Is there a way to REALLY turn off the image loading? Thanks. Max

superscript and textrm
Hello, I am trying to insert a math symbol into the super script, but latex seems to hate it very much. I know I can use ERT and make it like "$^{\mu}$. However it appears in itallic shape. I guess "\textrm" will make it stand straight. But if I put math symbol in like \textrm{\mu}, latex complains. Is there other way to do it? Thank you! Max
Pybliographer 1.0.11 now working under cygwin.
Hello LyX friends, I finally got Pybliographer working under the Cygwin with the XFree server. It looks and feels the same as the one you see on your linux box. It probably runs faster, though it might be just an illusion. Pybliographer is the best reference managing utility AFAIK. It works great on bibtex files. Although you cannot push the citation ref into lyx directly using this cygwin version as someone do in *nix, it is still very useful to manage your bibtex files if you are stuck with windows environment. If you are interested in getting it for your cygwin box, I can provide you with a patch file and instructions to build on your own. If anyone can provide ftp/http space, binaries can also be provided. Thank you and ehjoy lyxing! Max

Bug NOT fixed
Hello, I have reported a bug before about the paper margin settings on Layout/Document/Paper dialog box (XForms). The problem was fixed in 1.2.3, but resurfaced on 1.3.0. Again, the problem is that "0" (zero) is displayed as empty and is confusing because it looks the same as specifying nothing, which means use package/class default. Max

Re: Bug in 1.3? Server pipes not destroyed
Can you get this to work with pipes?? If no, switching to sockets does not lose anything. Since sockets are simple to program, it is not difficult to come up with a simple helper program in C, or perl. Max --- Andre Poenitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Ok.

Absolutely. But what can be more annoying to have a graph at a corner of a big page, and have to adjust the bondingbox manully? Instead of eps2eps, ps2eps will probably do a better job.

Dropping eps2eps line and putting a "-E" switch on dvips works well in most cases.
Re: Bug in 1.3? Server pipes not destroyed
By the way, why are we still using pipes? It seems that there was a discussion about switching it to sockets so it is more portable. Is that a awfully difficult thing to do, or it has some disadvantages? Thanks. Max

Re: lyx on cygwin [Solved! 100%]
After checking all the files, the problem is finally solved with version 3.7 of the drftcite package and the cygwin version of tetex. Bibtex from fptex cannot deal with the cygwin (unix) style path in the .aux files becaue it reads "/home/max/". Thanks for all of you who helped. Max
Re: lyx on cygwin [Solved! but not 100%]
The problem seems to be a conflict between drftcite and hyperref. On my linux machine, the versions are hyperref v6.72e and drftcite 3.7; the windows latex gets hyperref v6.72y and drftcite 3.9. After overwriting the drftcite 3.9 with 3.7, the stack problem is solved. But the citation references are in trouble (got '?'). I need the drftcite package so I can see the bibtex key as the key I wrote in the bibtex files but not numbers. If there is an alternative solution, I'd drop the drftcite package.

After changing the numbers in texmf.cnf and regenerate the latex format files, the error is still there.

Thanks for the quick response. After installing the missing sty files in the pfTex package, I tried my lyx file. The error is still the same!

lyx on cygwin
Hi guys, I am trying to get lyx working on cygwin so that I can work on my thesis from both linux and windows if I need to. I first tried the tetex package distributed with cygwin. I works on small files. If I throw my thesis on it, it just won't go. The errors are something like "tex capacity exceeded". I then tried "pfTex" or TexLive. That's Windows native. I have big trouble to get it work. First of all, it is missing many basic files like setspace.sty. Also it has a strange koma-script package that needs scrlfile.sty and it doesn't even have it. When I run reconfig from lyx within the cygwin shell, I saw some errors.I am not sure if it is possible to just drop in the lyx files from a linux system to expect work in that environment. I have all my paths the unix-way, eg. "/usr/...". Can anyone give me advice on which one I should fix? Should I fix the tetex package comes with cygwin? If so, how do I fix that error: "tex capacity exceeded". If the other one is better, anyone had experience with that pfTex? Thanks. Max

lyx for windows: Why not the cygwin tetex?
I am really interested in working in a windows environment on lyx since most or my figures are created using Microcal Origin anyway. Following the link at lyx.org I went to a great site about installing lyx on windows. I saw the following: "As of today be sure to SKIP (NOT INSTALL) the package tetex" My question is why. I'd like to use the tetex package comes with cygwin if possible. I am not really interested in another latex distro as the site suggests. Can anyone explain if it is possible to use the cygwin tetex package instead of a native windows package? Thanks! Max

Re: Convert PS to EPS
It is pretty good. I use it for many figures in my thesis (i am writing it with lyx!). Two features I want most are: 1. Define (closed) path that contains both straight lines and beizer curves 2. Apply clipping and filling with 1 Only programming with metapost give me those for now. I'd love to do it with a GUI program.

Re: New More Serious Problems with 1.2.1 - Partial Printing - Bad PS Generated by LyX??
Well, if I am mistaken, GV needs the ghostscript to display anything. So if gv works fine then you probably not passing the right parameters to the ghostview when printing. The similiar problem happens to me due to a bad EPS figure I included. Try remove the recently added figures and see it that helps. Figure out which figure that causes the problem, and do something about it. One other thing, if you recently updated or changed configuration of gs/gv/printer, you probably messed up something. If still not working, post the document. There are people who can help. Max --- "Richard A.

Thanks for the suggestion, but all those combined cannot do what I really need.
