 Llewelyn,

First, let me encourage you to upgrade to -1.4.4. The -1.3.5 release is
 very old and no longer supported. No reason why the latest stable release
 will not run on your system.

  All the Book classes available on my version of LYX have a common
  shortcoming LOOK at any Book you buy or get from the Library and you will
  see that chapter one starts on the right hand page . The page is
  therefore bound on its left edge Similarly if I do some document for my
  office or for a sales proposal we put it into a presentation folder with
  the binding on the left.
 
  In the Book class in LYX odd pages  eg number one are always with the
  Binding space on the right side of the page .This convention is very
  troublesome

Second, you're looking at it from the wrong viewpoint. Take a book from
 your shelf and open it anywhere. You'll see that the outer page margins are
 wider than the inner page margins. That's because when you lay the book
 flat on its back, the inner margins of both pages make the text area look
 centered.

  The second problem is that LYX will only start a Chapter on odd number
  pages and this results in Lyx inserting blank pages Blank pages are thus
  even number and so always take up position on the left side of an open
  book . I would be better served if A) no convention about chapters
  starting on odd or even pages
  OR
  B)LYX started chapters on even pages if it had to have a convention about
  this OR
  C) If I had some code I could enter in the document to change the Chapter
  start convention on the fly

Third, you can make changes so chapters will start on either odd or even
 pages, but that's not standard for the types of books LaTeX and LyX were
 designed to handle. Yes, novels will start chapters anywhere they want --
 even in the middle of the page -- but that's not typographic convention for
 a book.
 please tell me how .I would like to insert it in my book preamble.I hope you 
would know which one of those definitions in the preamble conrol this even 
odd page matter for chapters ?
Fourth, if you want to get the maximum from LyX you'll need to learn
 LaTeX. Whether you'll enter it in the unfortunately-named ERT, or in the
 preamble, or you want to know how to change the appearance of your
 document, you need LaTeX. Two recommendations: Guide to LaTeX, 4th Edition
 and The LaTeX Companion, 2nd Edition.
 It seems I must but but that will take time and I need in the meantime a 
work around for this specific problem . I have already written 34 words 
for a two book novel series ,please do help me.
  The simplest would be if I could enter code so that all odd number pages
  are set to have binding space on the left instead of right I can then
  work around all other problems

You can do this, but your book will look very odd when you're done. I've
 seen books like that: the text area is pushed to the outer edges of the
 pages with a huge white space on either side of the binding. Very
 amateurish, IMNSHO.

In the http://wiki.lyx.org - CreatingLyXRPM, can you have help about

the new version need it. If don't work, hope the rpm official de Red Hat

Please help me with Document class Book for LYX

[lewelyn . lee]

I am using  LYX 1.3.5 to write a novel Running on Suse Linux 9.3
I have finally setteld to use Doc Class Memoir because it gives me least 
problems regarding my preferences

All the Book classes available on my version of LYX have a common shortcoming 
LOOK at any Book you buy or get from the Library and you will see that chapter 
one starts on the right hand page . The page is therefore bound on its left 
edge
Similarly if I do some document for my office or for a sales proposal we put 
it into a presentation folder with the binding on the left.

In the Book class in LYX odd pages  eg number one are always with the Binding 
space on the right side of the page .This convention is very troublesome

Please Please could someone to solve this problem
It would be easiest for me to enter some code in LAYOUT  DOCUMENTPREAMBLE 
but I have read the manual plenty and just cannot work out whet to do there
I do not want to Try to Learn LATEX ,With above problem fixed LYX can do 99% 
of my needs
If I could get left side Binding on page one I can work around the second 
problem
The second problem is that LYX will only start a Chapter on odd number pages 
and this results in Lyx inserting blank pages 
Blank pages are thus even number and so always take up position on the left 
side of an open book .
I would be better served if
A) no convention about chapters starting on  odd or even pages
OR
B)LYX started chapters on even pages if it had to have a convention about this

Llewelyn,

  First, let me encourage you to upgrade to -1.4.4. The -1.3.5 release is
very old and no longer supported. No reason why the latest stable release
will not run on your system.


All the Book classes available on my version of LYX have a common
shortcoming LOOK at any Book you buy or get from the Library and you will
see that chapter one starts on the right hand page . The page is therefore
bound on its left edge Similarly if I do some document for my office or
for a sales proposal we put it into a presentation folder with the binding
on the left.



In the Book class in LYX odd pages  eg number one are always with the Binding
space on the right side of the page .This convention is very troublesome


  Second, you're looking at it from the wrong viewpoint. Take a book from
your shelf and open it anywhere. You'll see that the outer page margins are
wider than the inner page margins. That's because when you lay the book flat
on its back, the inner margins of both pages make the text area look
centered.


The second problem is that LYX will only start a Chapter on odd number
pages and this results in Lyx inserting blank pages Blank pages are thus
even number and so always take up position on the left side of an open
book . I would be better served if A) no convention about chapters
starting on odd or even pages
OR
B)LYX started chapters on even pages if it had to have a convention about this
OR
C) If I had some code I could enter in the document to change the Chapter
start convention on the fly


  Third, you can make changes so chapters will start on either odd or even
pages, but that's not standard for the types of books LaTeX and LyX were
designed to handle. Yes, novels will start chapters anywhere they want --
even in the middle of the page -- but that's not typographic convention for
a book.

  Fourth, if you want to get the maximum from LyX you'll need to learn
LaTeX. Whether you'll enter it in the unfortunately-named ERT, or in the
preamble, or you want to know how to change the appearance of your document,
you need LaTeX. Two recommendations: Guide to LaTeX, 4th Edition and The
LaTeX Companion, 2nd Edition.


The simplest would be if I could enter code so that all odd number pages are
set to have binding space on the left instead of right I can then work around
all other problems


  You can do this, but your book will look very odd when you're done. I've
seen books like that: the text area is pushed to the outer edges of the
pages with a huge white space on either side of the binding. Very
amateurish, IMNSHO.

   Well, sorry to be bore, but the

names inserted inside the dvi or pdf final outputs!

 


That's work fine for me - I usually
use Norwegian but Portuguese is fine too.


   I want to tell you: NEITHER LINUX NOR WINDOWS Lyx
docs are changed when I do that way to change the auto
names (names like 'Contents' 'Figure 1' 'October, 16
2005' -- to which I want to be 'Índice', 'Figura 1',
'16 de outubro de 2005' and so forth). Sorry, but
there are something wrong -- I think that some of
these OS must work on that way you said me!

   Please I want a simple thing:

   - Type asdkhjdfkh in a new Lyx file and 
 put this line line as 'title';


   - Change both 'Layout-Document-Language'
 and 'Edit-Preferences-Language' to
 portuguese (or whatever tongue you want);

   - Export it to pdf or view it as dvi or
 something like that;

   Then, what do you see? 'October, 16 2005' isn't
it? Well, I want to be written there '16 de outubro de
2005'.
 


I got
18 de Outubro de 2005
when I selected Portuguese language.

I don't know about windows, but for linux, make sure
you have all the necessary parts of latex.

It seems to me that somethings wrong with your latex,
perhaps the babel package is missing?  (It contains
translations for all supported languages.)

When I set the document language to Portuguese and
does file-export-latex in lyx, I get a newfile14.tex like this:
START OF FILE

%% LyX 1.4.0cvs created this file.  For more info, see http://www.lyx.org/.

\usepackage{babel}
\makeatother
\begin{document}

\title{dsfg}\maketitle

\end{document}

END OF FILE

Never mind that I use lyx 1.4, older versions like 1.3 and 1.2 gets the
language stuff right too.
Notice that the language is set in the line specifying document class.
Do you get the [portuges] part too?

Then notice the \usepackage{babel} right before
\begin{document}.  Do you get that too? 


Try making a .dvi the manual way, bu running
latex filename.tex
You should get a filename.dvi, or error messages.

What language do you get in the .dvi, assuming your latex
file contained the correct language setup with babel?
If your .tex file had the language setup but the .dvi got wrong
anyway, examine filename.log.  That's where you find any
error messages.  You will also find the version of latex
used, the first lines of my logfile is:

Several lines about activiating portuguese support.  (The missing

Try this, and find out where it goes wrong.
Does lyx output a .tex file with the correct language settings?
If no, try to set the document language right.
lyx 1.4: Document-settings-language
lyx 1.3: layout-document-language

If lyx dows wrong and you're in a real hurry, try
copying the langauge stuff from my example
file into your .tex file. 


When you have a correct .tex file, try running latex on it.
Do you get correct results?  If so, then your latex is fine and
the problem is with lyx.  If not, you have a latex problem.

Use a recent linux distribution, not something that is
several years old.  After changing latex, such as adding
packages, you have to reconfigure lyx.
lyx 1.3: edit-reconfigure
lyx 1.4: tools-reconfigure

Then exit lyx, restart lyx, and try to make a portuguese
document again.

   Well, sorry to be bore, but the

That's work fine for me - I usually
use Norwegian but Portuguese is fine too.


   I want to tell you: NEITHER LINUX NOR WINDOWS Lyx
docs are changed when I do that way to change the auto

'16 de outubro de 2005' and so forth). Sorry, but
there are something wrong -- I think that some of
these OS must work on that way you said me!

   Please I want a simple thing:

   - Type asdkhjdfkh in a new Lyx file and 
 put this line line as 'title';


   - Change both 'Layout-Document-Language'
 and 'Edit-Preferences-Language' to
 portuguese (or whatever tongue you want);

   - Export it to pdf or view it as dvi or
 something like that;

   Then, what do you see? 'October, 16 2005' isn't
it? Well, I want to be written there '16 de outubro de
2005'.
 


I got
18 de Outubro de 2005
when I selected Portuguese language.

I don't know about windows, but for linux, make sure
you have all the necessary parts of latex.

It seems to me that somethings wrong with your latex,
perhaps the babel package is missing?  (It contains
translations for all supported languages.)

When I set the document language to Portuguese and
does file-export-latex in lyx, I get a newfile14.tex like this:

Never mind that I use lyx 1.4, older versions like 1.3 and 1.2 gets the
language stuff right too.
Notice that the language is set in the line specifying document class.
Do you get the [portuges] part too?

Then notice the \usepackage{babel} right before

Try making a .dvi the manual way, bu running
latex filename.tex
You should get a filename.dvi, or error messages.

What language do you get in the .dvi, assuming your latex
file contained the correct language setup with babel?
If your .tex file had the language setup but the .dvi got wrong
anyway, examine filename.log.  That's where you find any
error messages.  You will also find the version of latex
used, the first lines of my logfile is:

A new version of LyX/Mac has been posted which should solve the problem  
for new installations.


If you are upgrading from an earlier version of LyX/Mac (and you have  
run the old installer script previously), the fix is to edit your  
preferences as follows: in Preferences  Paths  PATH Prefix, enter  
/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin- 
current:/usr/X11R6/bin:/sw/bin:/opt/local/teTeX/bin (without the  
quotes). You'll then need to do Edit  Reconfigure, restart LyX, do  
Edit  Reconfigure again, restart LyX, and all should be well.


Sorry about this, but do let us know if you continue to have problems.

A new version of LyX/Mac has been posted which should solve the problem  
for new installations.


If you are upgrading from an earlier version of LyX/Mac (and you have  
run the old installer script previously), the fix is to edit your  
preferences as follows: in Preferences > Paths > PATH Prefix, enter  
"/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin- 
current:/usr/X11R6/bin:/sw/bin:/opt/local/teTeX/bin" (without the  
quotes). You'll then need to do Edit > Reconfigure, restart LyX, do  
Edit > Reconfigure again, restart LyX, and all should be well.


Sorry about this, but do let us know if you continue to have problems.

 An existing one is tex2pdf, but it produces pdf using pdflatex.

Finally I solved this as follows:

In the preamble of the document in LyX I typed:

\usepackage{nomencl}
\makeglossary

Then, in the document where I wanted the Nomenclature I typed:

\printglossary

After this I exported the document into LaTeX format. Then, after closing LyX, at 
console I typed:

pdflatex filename.tex Enter
pdflatex filename.tex Enter

This created the filename.glo file. Then, at console I typed

makeindex filename.glo -s nomencl.ist -o filename.gls Enter

This created the glossary file filename.gls. Then, I opened the document in LyX. Then 
I exported the document to pdf format. Nomenclature came perfectly!

Please help me to use nomencl package in LyX to generate list of symbols.

[R S Ananda Murthy]

Hello:

Has anybody used nomencl package to create a list of symbols in LyX? Please help me to 
do this.

I am writing a book in which I want to include a list of symbols used in the book. I 
am using Koma-script book class. I am using pdftex to generate the final output file 
in pdf format.

Thanks for all the help.

I know I should type \usepackage{nomencl} in the preamble and then I should follow the 
instructions given in the nomencl documentation. I have done this. But when I create 
the final pdf file using pdftex in LyX 1.3.3 I am not seeing the Nomenclature list. I

the problem is that the building of the glossary needs a call to makeindex to 
build a .gls file from the .glo file which is created by the first call to 
latex.

I don't know is there is a way to explain to lyx how to automatically use the 
command sequence: latex - makeindex - latex as it is done for the classical 
index.

what can be done is of course to export to latex and build the pdf file 
manually...

It looks better now, but when I have long title's for a chapter name it does this:

While I want this:

I already gave you an answer for this question few weeks ago.
Here it is again:

Add the following line to the preamble:

\newlength{\tmp}
\settowidth{\tmp}{Hoofdstuk VIII}
\renewcommand{\tocchapter}[3]{%
  \indentlabel{\@ifnotempty{#2}{%
  \makebox[\tmp][l]{\ignorespaces #1 #2.}\quad}}#3}

Thanks, I didn't got your previous email, don't know why, but
thanks for your patience.

It looks better now, but when I have long title's for a chapter name it does this:

Hoofdstuk I Very long chapter titel is
here and 
looks a bit
ugly.   10

While I want this:

Hoofdstuk I This very long chapter title
looks better this way.  10

Any ideas, anyone?

Cheers,
Jeroen.

Hi all,

I got a deadline which is actually my lifeline.

My table of content in amsbook does the following:

Hoofdstuk I   Name1   10
Hoofdstuk II   Name2  20
Hoofdstuk III   Name3 30

while I want this:

Hoofdstuk I   Name1   10
Hoofdstuk II  Name2   20
Hoofdstuk III Name3   30

If someone could please help me 

eternal gratitude in advance,

cross reference to cells in a table, again. Please, help.

[Carlo Ferri]

I am sorry to bore you again with this problem, but I can
not fix it. I went through the documentation, the help
on-line the examples-files, but I did not find anything. I
am going to finish and I hope this is my last problem.
I have a document with five tables, each section is
un-numbered (i.e. *), Only one footnote without any label, a
references section with works cited in the document by
labels of the form: AuthorName (Year)  and about forty
labeled equations.
I am deciding if it is worth to use the decimal alignment
for each table. It seems to work fine except for the empty
cell of the tables (when I fill them with --- it has a
different alignment).
In the body text, I need to refer only to some cells inside
two different table, only with two different symbol, but I
can succeed in doing it. I tried to use simply (*) and (**)
for labeling the two categories of cells, but this method
have some problems with decimal alignment. Is There someone
so kind as to give me some suggestion or tell me that my
purpose is not feasible ?
A very very less important question is about float tables
placement: I try the suggestions on the documentation and
help on-line but without success: in particular placing [h]
or \[h] in Tex mode at the very first line of the float. Any
hint ?
whatever is your reply, thank you very much for your
previous kind and helpful assistance.
Best regards
Carlo

 Hello everybody.

 I need LateX. So, LyX  was advised to me as the fastest and simply way to
 write LateX documents. In the meantime I have been reading the tutorial,
 something from the user guideand something from the not so short
 introduction to LateX.
 However,  I am stopped on some problem:
 
 1) I need the references section in the form summarized by the following

 Bass, L. (1966). Economics of Nondestructive Testing. Annul Technical
 Conference Trasactions, ASQC, pp. 611-615.
 Hans, B.L. (1963). Quality control: Theory and Applications. Prentice-Hall,
 Englewood Cliffs, NJ.
 and so on...
 So no label is present beside each item.
 I have to be able to refer to those item in the article , as Bass (1966) and
 as Hans (1963) respectively.
 How can I do this by LyX?

If I understand correctly, what you need to do is to add
  \usepackage{natbib}
to the preamble, and use plainnat as the bibliography style.
The other solutions given to you were wrong.

The first option there (to write \date{}) is the correct one.
Note the help page doesn't tell you where to put it.
You either need to put it in the preamble, or put it inside the document in
LaTeX mode, before the title.

The second option (to put ctrl+space in the date style) is wrong because it
will put too much space between the title and the body of the document.

 Press Ctrl-Space which will produce an blue empty space, and
 set its style as Date from the tool bar.

Well, this is probably the best advice for beginners, but it
introduce huge gap between title and body of text. The better
advice is to look in the article.cls (or scrartcl.cls, or
something else -- the class of document you use), find definition
of \maketitle, and then redefine it without date. It is not so
bad as you would expect it to be. For example for scrartcl
('article [Koma-Script]' in Layout/Document dialog box), the new
command to be add to Layout/LaTeX preamble is just:

\def\@maketitle{%
\clearpage
\let\footnote\thanks
\begin{center}%
{\sectfont\huge \@title \par}%
  \end{center}%
  \par
  \vskip 2em}

(you may reconsider what kind of size you want for the title --
default \huge is probably inappropriate for just simple document;
either delete \huge at all, or use something smaller like \large)

Happy LyXing!

I have used the information on www.lyx.org/help/...  it works. In detail, in
the
preamble:
\renewcommand{\@cite}[2]{{#1\if@tempswa , #2\fi}}
\renewcommand{\@biblabel}[1]{}


(B)
On that page it is also suggested to in the preamble:
\usepackage{cite}
\citeleft{}
\citeright{}
However, I have not yet try it.

So I am going to try both what you advise and the aforementioned (B), even
if what I have got, (A), it seems to me working fine.

LyX-1.1.6fix4 on RedHat 7.2: please help to install

[Aslan R. Kasimov]

Hi everyone:

Please help resolve my problem (probably an easy one).
I don't seem to find the right packages to install latest lyx (fix4) on my
machine. I have fix3 installed and working more or less okay, but want to
upgrade.

rpm -Uvh lyx-1.1.6fix4-1.i386.rpm   returns
error: failed dependencies:
libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3 is needed by lyx-1.1.6fix4-1

I have currently installed:

libstdc++-2.96-98
glibc-2.2.4-19.3
xforms-0.88-4
lyxgdb-1.1.6fix3-1

I greatly appreciate any hints on how to get things going.

Thank you.

Aslan
