why \graphicspath not work in Windows/lyx?---solution to write a dissertation/report/book
A lot of thanks to Herbert Voss ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), the problem is now solved. Some hints are given below for possible use: 1. disable using temporary directories. This means that you have to delete the temp files in the folders (if not, it may affect the references) 2. never use an absolute path, just use relative path; 3. all latex preambles in sub-files should be copied into the main lyx file (the sub-files remain unchanged and can be compiled separately!) 4. no need to use \graphicspath in sub-files (it seems that all preambles in the sub-files are ignored?). Hence, never use the same filename for two figures. 5. the same report class has to be used in all sub-files as well as the main file 6. put only one reference block at the end of the main lyx file Enjoy reporting, Qingchang Original Message Subject: why \graphicspath not work in Windows/lyx? Date: Tue, 04 Jun 2002 17:59:07 +0100 From: Qing-Chang Zhong [EMAIL PROTECTED] Organization: Imperial College, London, UK To: LyX users [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dear All, Thanks to Jean-Pierre, \graphicspath would be the best solution for searching graphics when combining several lyx files into one file. However, \graphicspath does not work well in Windows/Lyx/MikTex. It works well with exported tex files. My lyx is 1.1.6.fix1. I tried: \graphicspath{/cygdrive/e/work} \graphicspath{//e/work} \graphicspath{e:/work} but none of them works. Anyone can help? Thanks a lot, Qingchang

How to put two figures side by side having different Caption and No.?
Dear All, There is a package called subfigure to put two sub-figures side by side in ONE figure float. However, I want to put two figures side by side but in two figure floats to obtain two different CAPTIONs and figure numbers. Do you have any solutions? Thanks a lot in advance. Yours sincerely, Qing-Chang
