Yes, thank you. I was looking for a more elegant solution, but you are right, the sort key solves the problem without much effort. Thomas
Using German sort order with nomencl
Hello, In a German language document I am trying to produce a nomenclature in LyX using the implemented functions for the nomencl package. Some of the symbols I use start with a German umlaut, e. g. ÖJZ. These entries are listed at the beginning of the nomenclature if I code the umlaute as \"A, \"O, \"U and at the end if I type them in directly as Ä, Ö or Ü. However, I want them to be listed among the entries starting with A, O or U respectively, so I changed the nomenclature command in Tools > Preferences > Output > LaTeX to "makeindex -g -s mein_nomencl.ist"; "-g" being the command to tell MakeIndex to use the German sort order and "mein_nomencl.ist" being a .ist-file with the command "quote '+'". LyX compiles the nomenclature without any problems other than the wrong sort order if I use the standard nomenclature command. However, with my changed options it will produce a document where everything I wrote besides the nomenclature is printed, but the nomenclature is completely left out. Does anybody know an explanation for this behaviour? I would be very thankful for your help. Thomas

If yes, typing "\deffootnote{1.5em}{1em}{\textsuperscript{\thefootnotemark}}" should change that. That way, you eliminate the separate indention for the first line. Regards Thomas

biblatex showing neither bibliography nor cites in PDF
Hello, I am fairly new to LaTeX and LyX, having begun to read about it a few months ago and trying to use it since about a week for a test chapter for my diploma thesis. Like any beginner I am encountering loads of problems, so I hope you will be lenient towards me if I did make some very silly mistake or if I have difficulties understanding something. My problem is very similar to one which has repeatedly discussed in this mailing list: when using biblatex, LyX compiles the document and creates a PDF, but this PDF shows neither the bibliography nor proper cites. Instead of cites it only shows the BibTeX-keys of the cited literature printed in bold. The solution proposed in earlier threads was to use absolute paths instead of relative ones; the reason for this being that LyX's PDF-export strategy creates a .tex-file in a temporary file and runs pdflatex on it, thus not finding the .bib-files specified in the relative path. Unfortunately this solution doesn't work for me, even when I use absolute paths only the BibTeX-keys are shown. My setup is: 1. I'm using Windows XP Service Pack 3, MikTeX 2.8 and Lyx 2.0. 2. As a backend to biblatex I use biber. I have tried to use a simple .bib file with one entry located at C:\Test\. I have followed the instructions for using biblatex in the LyX wiki (http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Biblatex#toc2). I have tried out several things to make it work, but they all failed. Among them are: 1. Switching between \bibliography and \addbibresource, writing in or leaving out the ".bib" suffix respectively. 2. Using "/" slashes and using "\" slashes. When using "/" slashes, the PDF output only shows the keys as explained above, when using "\" slashes LaTeX seems to interpret them as commands and shows an error message. Putting the path in quotes or in \string" doesn't change that. 3. Following the reccomendation in the wiki I tried to setup a texmf order in C:\texmf to put my .bib-file, but MikTeX won't accept it as a rootfile, showing an error message: "MiKTeX Problem Report Message: Not a TDS-compliant root directory.
