\flushleft AND hyphenation possible together?

2001-04-11 Thread Kaspar Pflugshaupt

Hello,

I've tried a few things, but didn't get this to work: 

Can I have left-justified text _with_ hyphenation in Lyx? It would be cool 
e.g. for narrow table cells, where I'd like long words to be hyphenated, but 
margins not justified (due to "holes"). At the moment, I'm putting the 
hyphens in manually.

Does anybody have an idea?

try in latex preamble

\AtBeginDocument{\setlength{\rightskip}{0cm plus 0.5cm}}

Tried it. It works, too. Thanks a lot! It works on any text, though. Ideally, 
I'd like to have something that I can turn on and off within my document.

I've done some searching, meanwhile, and have come across a LaTeX package 
called "raggedright" that claims to offer this. It defines a new environment 
called FlushLeft that has hyphenation, and the "roughness" of the border can 
be adjusted via variables.
 
It was written for LaTeX 2.09, though. I'll see if I can make it work.

Cheers

Kaspar
