On Thu, 5 Sep 2024, johann.pla...@th-deg.de wrote: 1. I want to write down the set of positiv real numbers including zero, which is in mathematical language an R with a superscript (+) and a subscript (0). In Lyx I can write only a super- or a subscript, but not both. How can I write a super- and a subscript at once? Johann, Using math mode you can select a format that allows you to insert both sub- and superscripts. 2. I wrote a mathematical definition with a head-line "Difinition of xxx", followed by the correponding text. I could also generate a box around my definition. Now I want to draw a line in my box which separates my head-line from the text. What should I do? I've no idea. 3. How can I incorporate a new paket in lyx? I have read that one should "write ERT LaTeX-Code into the document". But what does this mean? Please, be very detailed in your answers. While I don't know what a 'paket' is, ERT is an unfortunate historical term (Evil Red Text) for inserting LaTeX in the LyX document. On my hosts I use Ctrl-l (control key + 'l') to open a box with a red outline (I don't remember on which menu that's found). Start your LaTeX string with a backslash. This is probably in one of the help manuals available on the help menu. HTH, Rich -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

Re: Clipping graphics in Lyx
On Tue, 7 May 2024, Brian Kneller via lyx-users wrote: I have tried clipping graphics to remove white spaces and centre it on the page. I have been unable to find a detailed description as to how it should be done. From my experience I have assumed the zero in the bottom LHS of the graphic to which a pair of coordinates and associated and likewise the is another pair on the top RHS. I centre the graphic horizontally by changing the “x” values on the clipping entries and this seems to be quite easy the vertical parameters (y) are more difficult to adjust. I am finding the outcome of adjustments is difficult to predict making trimming time consuming. How does the presentation logic respond to changes in clipping values I suspect the float function interacts with this?. All my figures are one page high so I really don’t need to float (?) 1- would suppressing floating help and if so what is best way ? Brian, Perhaps I'm not understanding your issues, so take my comments with this thought in mind. When I insert a figure I use the 'insert figure float' icon to open a figure window. In the caption window I add a label then the caption text. When done, I use the trackball to set the cursor above the caption. Pressing Alt-A C centers the cursor in the figure window and that's where I click the 'insert graphics' icon. Browsing to the figure's location (usually an 'images' subdirectory in the project's directory tree) I select the figure. When inserted I use ctrl-shift s to save the figure. Now I can trim excess space surrounding the image to be seen in the complied report. Right-clicking on the image itself brings up the settings option. Clicking on that I select the 'Coordinates' tab and, by trial-and-error adjust the x and y values until the excess white space (or other unwanted content) is removed. While doing this I use 'Apply' button instead of the 'Save' button so I can continue trimming until satisfied.

This morning I deleted that yellow box and used ERT to enter the string. Error committed. Now, in the actual document I had to re-enter the ERT several times to get it to compile.

Source of another error
Looking at the LyX doc and the resulting .pdf I don't see the error: - chapter 2. ! LaTeX Error: Unicode character ^^Q (U+0011) not set up for use with LaTeX. See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation. Type H for immediate help. ... l.222 ...els based on probability distributions^^Q . There - Here's the text from the .lyx file: Because all environmental (and ecological) studies work with comparatively small samples from populations of almost infinite numbers of possible samples we need models based on probability distributions. There are many probability distributions that describe the the frequency of values across their range. A web search shows that unicode U+0011 is 'device control one.' What device is it trying to control in the above paragraph? TIA, Rich -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

Finding and removing old font commands
Updating documents from several years ago (the current one was originally written in 2018) pdflatex tells me I have old font commands such as \sc and \bf in the bibliography. I don't find them when looking in jabrefbib.bib; for example a 1982 book and a 1940 article. I need a clue stick on where to look for these errors; an example from the LyX error log is: l.4 {\sc Aitchison, J.} 1982. You should note that since 1994 LaTeX2e provides a new font selection scheme called NFSS2 with several new, combinable font commands. KOMA-Script classes had defined the old font commands like `\sc' only for compatibility with old LaTeX 2.09 document styles of Script 2.0. Nevertheless, these commands are deprecated and undocumented at least since 2003. Since 2013 KOMA-Script classes warned about soon removement of these deprecated commands. Now, after two decades of LaTeX2e and NFSS2, these commands will not work any more. If loading a package results in this error message, you should contact the author of that package and ask him to replace the deprecated font command `\sc', e.g., by `\normalfont \scshape `. Otherwise you should reconfigure or replace the package. If you have used the old font command `\sc' yourself, you should replace it, e.g., by `\normalfont \scshape '. To make it work for now, you can use the already also deprecated class option `enabledeprecatedfontcommands'. The JabRef bibtex source for this article does not contain {\sc. Help's needed.

Revising old LyX documents
I'm revising several old LyX documents and running into many issues since the TeXLive versions have been revised over the years. For example, one doc written in 2010 using KOMA-Script report class used a class option of 'abstraction.' That's deprecated and may well account for deprecated font style labels as well as other issues. Removing that option and adding `Abstract' using the abstract environment under the ToC places the word directly under the ToC and no heading on the following page with the abstract. According to the 2023-04-20 English version of the KOMA-Script manual (page 71), "3.8. Abstract "Particularly with articles, more rarely with reports, there is an abstract, or summary, directly beneath the title and before the table of contents. When using an in-page title, this abstract is normally a kind of left- and right-indented block. In comparison, the abstract appears as a chapter or section when using title pages. "abstract=simple switch "In the standard classes, the abstract environment sets the text “Abstract” centred before the abstract text. This used to be the normal practice. Since then, reading newspapers has trained us to recognize a suitably highlighted text at the beginning of an article or report as the abstract. This is even more true when the text comes before the table of contents. It is also confusing if, of all things, this title appears small and centred. KOMA-Script offers the option to include or exclude the abstract’s title with the abstract option. For simple switch , you can use any value from table 2.5, page 41. The default for KOMA-Script is false." That's not what I'm seeing in the LyX doc; see attached screenshot. Where do I add a simple switch (true) if I'm using the LyX Abstract environment? In addition to adding the word Abstract above the abstract on the page following the ToC are there general guidelines for updating old lyx documents?
