Re: LyX reading not UTF-8 encoded file.
Thanks Paul, you are always pretty helpful. However, ahead of sending that question, I rechecked with a file which I used formerly and on which a former LyX version did not issued an alarm and I got the same result. That is why it surprised me. Besides, after clearing the alarm everything appeared perfectly correct inside the LyX file, OCRing errors excepted. I confirm that I am XP PRO (do not blame me please ! But since the 80's and I am far to be a pro.) Paul Paul A.

This should convert the original file (yourfile) to a utf-8 version (newfile), omitting any characters that are not valid in utf-8. You can then compare newfile to yourfile to see what, if anything, was omitted. (If you want to tell whether yourfile is in fact valid utf-8, run inconv without the -c flag.

Alphabetic table of content
I started a long document with Article (ams); book (ams) was not available in my LyX version at that time. I have already a large index, so I cannot use it to compose an alphabetic table of content. Is there an other easy way to built one ? I am reediting a County Administrative Year-book (1860) and an alphabetic table of contents is far more interesting than a standard one. Thanks and regards Paul

Horizontal alignment in table
I notice that if you select a colomn width inside a table using the table parameter then you can still select an horizontal alignment but with no action : you are locked on left alignment.

Tab key within table
I notice a slight problem when you like to insert an accentuated letter using the command buffer : when you key the TAB to have the window of the available functions appearing then you move also the cursor inside the table to the next cell obliging you to key again to come back to the proper cell to insert the accentuated letter. To open the window in the command buffer I am using: alt x tab. Is it correct ? Thanks and regards Paul

The most likely reason is that you either do not have LaTeX installed or have it installed improperly. On Windows, the most common LaTeX distribution is MikTeX. If you don't have MikTeX (or some other distribution), you can do one of the following: a) download and install MikTeX (http://www.miktex.org); start LyX; run Tools - Reconfigure, and wait for it to complete; then close and restart LyX; or b) uninstall LyX, download the complete installer (http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/Windows -- you want the 80 MB bundle) and install that. Note that LyX needs a few other programs besides LaTeX, notably ImageMagick (for image processing) and Ghostscript. If you are missing those as well, take option (b) above; the bundle comes with everything you need. On the other hand, if you think that you have a working copy of LaTeX installed, open a DOS window and run 'kpsewhich article.cls'. It should tell you the path to the article class. If it fails to do so, your LaTeX distribution is screwed up. If DOS says kpsewhich is an unknown command, you need to get your LaTeX bin directory onto the system command path. /Paul Just for information, After installing 1.5.1 I was unable to read properly some documents because the class is missing in the standard installation package. So one way is to: Go to Start (is it start in English, the left button at the bottom corner of the screen)program --MiKTeX.6--Click on Browse Package. Then you will get all the available packages and you will see which one are installed in your MiKTeX. Then you can select the one(s) which is(are) missing and click on the button + which is at the upper left corner of the window. Then and if you are connected to internet the package(s) will be automatically downloaded and installed. If I remember properly that option was already available in the former MiKTeX. Paul

Re: LyX 1.5.1-3-18-AltInstaller-xxx.exe
Thanks for the tips and your kind efficiency Uwe Stöhr a écrit Yes, you can there only update within a MiKTeX-version. That means you get there updates only for MiKTeX 2.4 when you have 2.4 installed. But now only MiKTeX 2.6 is supported by the MiKTeX developers. The problem is that when you get the MiKTeX update windows during the installation, you just got the choice to check the updates for 2.4 or to update to 2.5. However and ahead of updating you shall check on the site then you reach the page advising you that 2.5 (if i remember properly) is not supported anymore without advising you that a 2.6 version exists. shall I missed something or is there a link I did not find ? completing the installation process, LyX 1.5.1 crashed when starting. Hmm, a crash is normally not a problem with incompatibilities between installed LyX-versions. Could you please start LyX by running directly the lyx.exe? Then a console window is opened together with LyX showing you some debugging output. When I launch lyx.exe, I just have a window opening then closing immediately and remaining black during opening which is lasting less than half a second. The same when launching using lyxLauncher.exe. Here I have two successive windows nothing inside (may be I do not see anything even if there is something) lasting each less than half a second. My former version LyX 1.4.3 svn is still working properly But SVN-versions are not stable one so this could eventually be a problem. Duly noted 1) May I uninstall 1.5.1 version without disturbing 1.4.3 and try to reinstall it Yes. But I recommend to also uninstall MiKTeX and reinstall LyX using the complete installer version for LyX. This will also install MiKTeX 2.6. Please be kind to clarify: Is it the complete official installer or yours ? (may I understand that because of my former MiKTeX 2.4 installation the MiKTeX 2.6 did not install with your installer ???) This is how I did it: I also run different LyX-versions without problems: - I first unistalled LyX 1.4.x and MiKTeX - I uninstalled LyX 1.5svn that I had installed for testing - I installed LyX 1.5.1 using the complete installer version - I installed LyX 1.4.5 using this installer: https://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=5117release_id=13213 (version 2.17) Please be kind to clarify installing 1.4.5 after 1.5.1 ??? and https://. Also presently I am using IE7.0.5730.11 and when trying to go to the hereabove address, the explorer advise me that there is an error on the security certificate. I do suppose that I can go further ? 2) I was looking to install JabRef but after installation the LyXWin installer advise me that it was not properly installed even it started . My fault, will be fixed for the next release. You can leave JabRef as it is properly installed. Duly Noted 5) I have been surprised because the configuration at the end of installation has been done very quickly when generally it last a very long time Then it seems that MiKTeX wasn't able to connect to the internet and install the LaTeX-packages needed by LyX. But as I told, MiKTeX 2.4 is outdated, MiKTeX 2.6 is the one you should use. (MiKTeX 2.5 also works for the case someoneone has this installed) For my own information where can I find the site to download MiKTeX2.6 Thanks again Uwe Best regards Paul

Duly Noted 5) I have been surprised because the configuration at the end of installation has been done very quickly when generally it last a very long time Then it seems that MiKTeX wasn't able to connect to the internet and install the LaTeX-packages needed by LyX. But as I told, MiKTeX 2.4 is outdated, MiKTeX 2.6 is the one you should use.

Re: LyX 1.5.1-3-18-AltInstaller-xxx.exe
Thanks for the tips and your kind efficiency "Uwe Stöhr" a écrit > Yes, you can there only update within a MiKTeX-version. That means you get > there updates only for MiKTeX 2.4 when you have 2.4 installed. But now > only MiKTeX 2.6 is supported by the MiKTeX developers. The problem is that when you get the MiKTeX update windows during the installation, you just got the choice to check the updates for 2.4 or to update to 2.5. However and ahead of updating you shall check on the site then you reach the page advising you that 2.5 (if i remember properly) is not supported anymore without advising you that a 2.6 version exists. shall I missed something or is there a link I did not find ? > >> completing the installation process, LyX 1.5.1 crashed when starting. > > Hmm, a crash is normally not a problem with incompatibilities between > installed LyX-versions. > Could you please start LyX by running directly the lyx.exe?

When I launch "lyx.exe", I just have a window opening then closing immediately and remaining black during opening which is lasting less than half a second. The same when launching using "lyxLauncher.exe".

Re: LyX 1.5.1-3-18-AltInstaller-xxx.exe
I followed your recommendation installing using LyXWin installer without
uninstalling former versions. During installation, check for Miktex update
(no one availabe Miktex version 2.4.1667)[ I do not update to 2.5],
completing the installation process, LyX 1.5.1 crashed when starting.
- My former version LyX 1.4.3 svn is still working properly and I still have
former version 1.4
1) May I uninstall 1.5.1 version without disturbing 1.4.3 and try to
reinstall it
2) I was looking to install JabRef but after installation the LyXWin
installer advise me that it was not properly installed even it started .
Might it be any relation regarding further crash of 1.5.1 ? ..anyway, I
uninstall it.
3) for information LyX1.5.1 like others LyX versions is installed in program
files when MikTeX is directly under C
4) I had a look inside the program files and I found a tmp in Resources
directory named tmpdpmjmf.log. I do not know if it might be useful but here

Article (AMS) [French language]
Sorry to come back again on this class, but I start to believe that the problem might come from the formatting of this class into French. 1) Two-sided document: If it works in the English-American version then in my installation (1.4.3 svn) whether I select English or French, as soon as I reach the second page of my document and I want to display it under PDF_(pdflatex) then I got an error. If I untick two-sided then it works. 2) If I want to insert a part, if I change the size of the font then I got an error. Without changing anything, it works but then the display in PDF_(pdflatex) is: première partie 1.les peuples (les peuples being the part title) which is in English something like first part 1. The tribes. I believe that whether first part or 1. should be displayed but not both isn't it ? I am a bit puzzled ! paul

So, I believe that there is something in the French LyX built version under windows which misinterpretes something, maybe with miktex or ... may be a problem with the accents which are largelly used in French ...

Article (AMS) [French language]
Sorry to come back again on this class, but I start to believe that the problem might come from the formatting of this class into French. 1) Two-sided document: If it works in the English-American version then in my installation (1.4.3 svn) whether I select English or French, as soon as I reach the second page of my document and I want to display it under PDF_(pdflatex) then I got an error. If I untick two-sided then it works. 2) If I want to insert a part, if I change the size of the font then I got an error. Without changing anything, it works but then the display in PDF_(pdflatex) is: première partie 1.les peuples (les peuples being the part title) which is in English something like first part 1. The tribes. I believe that whether first part or 1. should be displayed but not both isn't it ? I am a bit puzzled ! paul

The attached document (four pages) seems to work for me, so I suspect it is something specific in yours that is causing the problem. If you apply your formatting selections to my document, does the problem arise? I load your document and effectively it displays perfectly. I tried to apply your parameters to mine without success. So I transcoded into TeX to see the differences In fact provided it has been prepared in French then it keeps the memory of the original parameters adding yours. So, I modified my document under TeX to fulfill your parameters (newtherorem and theorem style excepted) and saved it under .TeX. Then I imported it in LyX, then readjust some parameters which where not properly imported. Also, I removed what has been added into the Latex preamble(at the end of the LyX parameters) to avoid two preambles and tried to display without success However, as soon as I unticked the double-sided document then I displayed under PDF_(pdflatex) without problem in US letter format. So, I believe that there is something in the French LyX built version under windows which misinterpretes something, maybe with miktex or ... may be a problem with the accents which are largelly used in French ...

Re: Help with Table of Contents
Timothy Reaves a écrit : I'm using the book document class. It seems that chapters are the only high level entity to be included into a ToC, and it seems Chapters and Sections are the high level classes for the document. - Go to Document -- parameter --- Numbering TOC : you can adjust the slider - As Juergen Spitzmueller advised me those marked with * are not suppose to appear in the TOC. - If you does not want any numbering put the corresponding slider to 0f (lefthandside) and use the entries which are supposed to have number. - When you have that, you can check with Document -- Table of contents. This seems - well, not odd so much as plain wrong. Most books I have would include things like the Index, List of Figures, and even the ToC in the ToC. For inserting index that's no problem, just place the index button (Insert -- Floating ...) where you want to see it. The same for the others. However I supposed that you used the floating placement for your figures and pictures, otherwise I don't think it will work (if you used the fixed one : no reference). Also, they support other high level, non-numbered entities, such as appendices, glossaries, etc. So am I using the wrong document class, or is it really that limited? Hope it helps Paul

Are you sure? Normally, none of the *-headings are supposed to appear in the

If you want unnumbered sections in the TOC, you have to do something else.
Here are some possibilities:
(1) write
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{the actual chapter text}
in TeX-mode just below the Chapter*. If it's a Sction*. replace chapter
by section.
(2) use KOMA-book as a class and use Addchap and Addsec instead of
Chapter* and Section*
(3) if you have only unnumbered, no numbered headings, just use Chapter and

Thanks Paul, you have been very patient with me; sorry for MikTeX, it was not really my feeling to call it an ancillary. I appreciate your tolerance for those beotians who are just using without knowing the details ... and being quite happy with that. Thanks again Paul "Paul A.

footnote inside table
class of document : book - LyX 1.4.1 - windows XP installation with widows installer. basic language : French. when I am inserting a footnote inside a table, it is properly displayed in the lyx document. However, in pdf via (pdflatex) the reference of the footnote is displayed inside the table, but the corresponding footnote is not. Any clue Thanks Paul
