Re: Forcing TOC to include section*

\addcontentsline{file}{sec_unit}{entry}
The \addcontentsline command adds an entry to the specified list or table
where...
* file is the extension of the file on which information is to be written:
toc (table of contents), lof (list of figures), or lot (list of tables).
* sec_unit controls the formatting of the entry. It should be one of the
following, depending upon the value of the file argument:
1. toc - the name of the sectional unit, such as part or subsection.
2. lof - figure
3. lot - table

This is intended and IMO opinion correct behaviour. Why do you think there is a problem ? It is a problem because after the paste people would be assumed to be done with the pasted part. And people should move on to do something else. However they would need to clear the selection first if that feature is there before they can do anything. For example, I want to insert a space after the pasted text, I need to first unselect it and then type space otherwise the selected text is cleared! If you check other editors, the most common behavior is unselect after paste. 2a. The Do not show graphics in the preferences is not honored. If you set an override in the graphics, it will over ride the general prefs. This again is intended and correct IMO. What it means is that the preference in the preference dialog is useless. This is more like a design flaw than a feature. A better way is like this: A no in general pref means absolutely no; a yes in general pref means dependent on the pref in the graphics. 2b. When converted from earlier version, not shown figures become shown as default. Bugs in the converter? Cannot reproduce - it works for me. Small testcase please. The problem is this: Suppose the show-graph pref in that graph produced with lxy1.16 is Do not display When openning with lyx1.20, the behavior is different dependent on the graphics setting in the general preferences: if it is setting like display in color, all the graphics will be shown regardless of the individual settings! if it is do no display in the general preference, it will not shown as inteded (in each of the graphes).When converting from old (218) version to new version (220), lyx1.2 ignores the individual pref settings! Please note, this is against the logic you presented! 3. A toggle switch that does show/hide all graphics will be very useful. I do not mean to close/or open the floats, I mean render or not render the graphics in the open floats. Yes, maybe ... This implementation is not needed if the reference setting I described in 2a is used. 4. The graphics conversion takes too much CPU! A way to cap the CPU usage is useful. Why ? Which xforms version / convertor are you using ? Try using the netpbm tools instead, if you're using convert Why? I have tens of eps graphics in the paper. I am using xforms 0.89. What are the netpbm tools? It took so much CPU that the keyboard and mouse stopped responding for over 5 minutes. My computer is PII366 w/ 128M, if that matters. 5. Page-up and page-down key not working if the courser is inside a float. If you mean you can't exit the float with page up/down, this is a known bug. Addition, the scroll-mouse seems not working either. 6. Footnote in the section heading is not working any more. Worked in 1.16fix4 and prior versions. Already solved. Works perfectly for me - testcase please 7. Mouse selection too difficult to use. If I try to select lines of texts and figures, the scrolling will be so fast that I cannot stop at the end point easily. Means of marking start and stop point to make a selection or distance-out-of-bounds scrolling speed variation is useful. The last part means the scrolling speed will vary during a selection scrolling: depends on how far the mouse is out of the bonds, the farther the faster the scrolling... Yes, we should have variable scrolling like this. As a work around, using the keyboard for selection is much better for this problem Keyboard selection? I guess it is time to re-read the documents. regards john

Please provide a small testcase like I asked. Please see the attached files. The lyx file is created with lyx1.16 with the Do not display selected for the included figure. To demo the problem, run lyx1.2 and set the edit/preference/lookfeel/misc/Display graphics to in color or others, then open the file test2.lyx. The figure is displayed! It shouldn't.

Re: lyx 1.20pre5 bugs and misses
The original suggestion was to put a cap on the number of processes. For example, run only 4 conversion process at the same time. Or saved the converted images with the original figures so there is no need to convert everytime the document is opened. Max Angus Leeming wrote: Well, we use lazy conversion, so only the graphics images that you try and display will be passed to the converter. Clearly, if you convert them all at the same time, then you're going to up your CPU usage, but this is most definitely a function of the converting tool you use. I can't see that there's much we can do about this. Angus

Re: lyx 1.20pre5 bugs and misses
The original suggestion was to put a cap on the number of processes. For example, run only 4 conversion process at the same time.

Re: drftcite requires cite? And some other problems with 1.20
I have tried.
At first it did't help until I modified my custom latex-dvi conversion script.
I added aditional latex run before bibtex run, then it worked. But the result
is different: with 1.16, I have both numerical key and the bibtex key shown in
the bibliography section, but only the numerical key shown with 1.20. All the
citation in the text are the same for both versions. This is quite strange
since in both cases, I use only the drftcite package.
My latex-dvi script looks like this now:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/latex $1
/usr/bin/latex $1
/home/max/bin/bibtex $1
/usr/bin/latex $1
/usr/bin/latex $1

Re: drftcite requires cite? And some other problems with 1.20
Alright! I went through the steps carefully and finally found the
problem! This is indeed the babel problem. Sorry for the mix-up.
In my 1.16 documents, I didn't use the babel package at all. When I open
it with lyx 1.2, the default preference of lyx1.2 has
\usepackage{babel} in the lang opt/language, so the babel package is
inserted into the document, after all other packages.
The cite, drftcite packages do need the babel to be loaded first, if the
babel is used. Please note this is just opposite to what other people
have said:
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg34407.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg34641.html
Since I do not use babel at all for my older documents written with lyx
1.16, I don't have any problem.
Right now, I strongly believe people are using different versions of
latex or different versions of latex packages! That probably explains
the inconsistancy between machines. I have send my non-working
examples out several times to people and they told me nothing was wrong.
I don't see the usefullness of an example this time so I will not
include one here. Thank you for your help!

[3.04399pt plus 1.8176pt minus 0.7216pt].
The latex preamble is like this:
\usepackage{drftcite}
\usepackage{lscape}
\usepackage{pstcol}
\usepackage{bibunits}
\usepackage{textcomp}
\usepackage{afterpage}
\usepackage[ps2pdf,pdfauthor={Max Bian}, linkcolor={blue}, linktocpage,
letterpaper, colorlinks={true}, citecolor={blue}]{hyperref}
% Settings
\interfootnotelinepenalty=1
\setlength{\abovecaptionskip}{0.5cm} % 0.5cm as an example
\setlength{\belowcaptionskip}{0.5cm} % 0.5cm as an example
% Caption Stuff
\let\oldcaption=\caption
\renewcommand{\caption}[1]{
\ifx \shortcaption \undefined
\oldcaption{#1}
\else
\oldcaption[\shortcaption]{\shortcaption \ #1}
\fi
}
\newcommand{\setshortcaption}[1]{
\newcommand{\shortcaption}{#1}
}
% ===
I am using bibunits if that matters.
Thank you for your help.

Re: multiline Latex preamble
I use a config file config.tex and put all the stuff I want in it. In the
preamble, put \include{config}. It works!

Hello,
I use LyX 1.1.6fix4 on Linux RedHat6.2. I have problems with
writing the Latex preamble, because it doesnot accept the
Enter key. Therefore I have write it on single line or use
another editor (vim) to include the preamdle text into the
lyx file.
Is this problem caused by Lyx or xforms? And how can I solve
it?
Thank you all,

Re: spacing in bibibliography
You can use the ERT:

References in captions
I need to put references in the table/figure captions. For example, Figure. Screenshot of a nice program called Lyx. From [12]. However I don't want to have it (From [12]) show up in the list-of-figure of list-of-table. I know I can do it with two captions, one short and one long. The short one goes to the LOF/LOT and the long one appears only in the text. I am wondering if there is a way to make it easier. i.e., is it possible to have lyx automatically generate the two captions, one short and one long, from one single caption when there is a citation reference detected in the caption? Thanks. Max __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Health - your guide to health and wellness http://health.yahoo.com
Re: References in captions
Basically, I will not have to write From at all. I just put the reference at the end and Lyx automatically append From [ref] after the caption. It really only make sense to put the reference at the end of the caption any way.
