Math mode ERT problems

[Drop Box]

Hello, I'm trying to use ERT in math mode, but as soon as I hit an escape 
character, it exits ERT mode.


More specifically, I'd like to second H. Peter Gumm's question (28-Oct-05).  
I'm trying to make ERT for xypic, but I can't get the /_/ part of

 \ar@/^/[r]
to render properly.  If I type it directly, LyX seems to insist on rendering 
it as /_{/} which makes it complain.  If I try to use ERT, LyX automatically 
puts a \ character before the _.


Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

-Bob


Hopefully I can be helpful by explaining a few tricky things I discovered 
about using xypic in LyX.


To prevent errors when using the @ symbol, I had to add
 \makeatother
to the preamble, in addition to the standard
 \input xy
 \xyoption{all}
You can create an xymatrix in math mode by typing \xymatrix.  The resulting 
matrix will be 1x1, so to enlarge it, use M-m w i and M-m c i to add 
rows and columns.

Re: Math mode ERT problems

[Drop Box]

I just realized that my previous question may be unclear due to some errors 
in my previous post...


ERT in mathed seems to have a few issues.  One of them is that LyX 
determines when to end an ERT sequence.  For example, if I hit C-L (to start 
ERT) and then hit the underscore character, LyX exits out of ERT mode, and 
the TeX produced is \_.  Although it's not relevant to my example, I often 
want to be able to ERT more than just the one character.  I'm currently 
having issues because of the backslash that LyX adds.


Now comes my original motivation.  I'm trying to use xypic in LyX.  I want 
to produce the following code:

 \ar@/_/[r]
By omitting the underscore, I can produce
 \ar@//[r]
by typing this literally.  When I type the underscore literally, LyX 
produces

 \ar@/_{/}[r]
which doesn't work.  If I try to use ERT, I get
 \ar@/\_/[r]
which doesn't work because of the extra backslash.

My apologies for the double-post.  I hope this clarifies things.  Thanks!

I can not get balance columns

[Marcelo Acuÿfffff1a]

Hi,
  I am writing a book with koma-script with two columns.
  I want get balance columns at the end of each chapter.
  I search in Google for it.
  I put in preamble
  \usepackage{balance}
  and, with ERT, \balance
  and \nobalance
  in accordance with manual of this package.
  I can´t get that it work OK.
  Or all text appears in right column or nothing
  occurs.
  How can I get balance end of chapter and chapter*?
   
  Thanks in advance.

using hyperlinks?

the plain text LyX without a link. What am I doing wrong?

It seems that your working directory/folder where LyX saves the

Re: Math mode ERT problems

[Drop Box]

Thanks so much for the article!  It is very well-written, and it answered 
some of my questions, namely how to bend arrows.  Unfortunately, it leaves 
unanswered perhaps the most annoying issue for me: how do I center labels 
over arrows?


(Arrow labels are by default are centered according to the midpoints of the 
corresponding objects.  If one object label is large and the other is small, 
the arrow label will be off-center with respect to the midpoint of the 
actual arrow.)


The article mentions this, but only in the instance of the label 
intersecting the arrow, e.g. A--f--B, which is typeset as \ar[r]|-{f}.  
The | character here is fine since LyX does nothing special with it.  
However, if I want

  f
A-B
the code is \ar[r]^-{f} which LyX translates to
\ar[r]^{-}{f}  In turn, xypic interprets this as
   -
Af-B

The only workaround I've found is adding to the preamble
\newcommand{\uc}[2]{#1^-{#2}}
\newcommand{\lc}[2]{#1_-{#2}}

and now I can get my arrow with \uc{\ar[r]}{f}.

This works, but it's far from desirable since it's a lot of extra typing and 
a much uglier than it should be.  It leaves me wondering why there isn't a 
mechanism (that I'm aware of) to just write normal ERT in math mode.


Can anyone think of a better workaround?  Thanks!

-Bob


P.S.  H. Peter's article is very nice, but after all the Google searching I 
did, it never came up.  I wonder if there's anything that could be done to 
increase its pagerank.

Thanks so much for the article!  It is very well-written, and it answered 
some of my questions, namely how to bend arrows.  Unfortunately, it leaves 
unanswered perhaps the most annoying issue for me: how do I center labels 
over arrows?


(Arrow labels are by default are centered according to the midpoints of the 
corresponding objects.  If one object label is large and the other is small, 
the arrow label will be off-center with respect to the midpoint of the 
actual arrow.)


The article mentions this, but only in the instance of the label 
intersecting the arrow, e.g. A--f--B, which is typeset as \ar[r]|-{f}.  
The | character here is fine since LyX does nothing special with it.  
However, if I want

  f
A-B
the code is \ar[r]^-{f} which LyX translates to
\ar[r]^{-}{f}  In turn, xypic interprets this as
   -
Af-B

The only workaround I've found is adding to the preamble
\newcommand{\uc}[2]{#1^-{#2}}
\newcommand{\lc}[2]{#1_-{#2}}

and now I can get my arrow with \uc{\ar[r]}{f}.

This works, but it's far from desirable since it's a lot of extra typing and 
a much uglier than it should be.  It leaves me wondering why there isn't a 
mechanism (that I'm aware of) to just write normal ERT in math mode.


Can anyone think of a better workaround?  Thanks!

P.S.  H. Peter's article is very nice, but after all the Google searching I

Math mode ERT problems

[Drop Box]

Hello, I'm trying to use ERT in math mode, but as soon as I hit an escape 
character, it exits ERT mode.


More specifically, I'd like to second H. Peter Gumm's question (28-Oct-05).  
I'm trying to make ERT for xypic, but I can't get the /_/ part of

 \ar@/^/[r]
to render properly.  If I type it directly, LyX seems to insist on rendering 
it as /_{/} which makes it complain.  If I try to use ERT, LyX automatically 
puts a \ character before the _.


Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

-Bob


Hopefully I can be helpful by explaining a few tricky things I discovered 
about using xypic in LyX.


To prevent errors when using the @ symbol, I had to add
 \makeatother
to the preamble, in addition to the standard
 \input xy
 \xyoption{all}
You can create an xymatrix in math mode by typing \xymatrix.  The resulting 
matrix will be 1x1, so to enlarge it, use "M-m w i" and "M-m c i" to add 
rows and columns.

Re: Math mode ERT problems

[Drop Box]

I just realized that my previous question may be unclear due to some errors 
in my previous post...


ERT in mathed seems to have a few issues.  One of them is that LyX 
determines when to end an ERT sequence.  For example, if I hit C-L (to start 
ERT) and then hit the underscore character, LyX exits out of ERT mode, and 
the TeX produced is "\_".  Although it's not relevant to my example, I often 
want to be able to ERT more than just the one character.  I'm currently 
having issues because of the backslash that LyX adds.


Now comes my original motivation.  I'm trying to use xypic in LyX.  I want 
to produce the following code:

 \ar@/_/[r]
By omitting the underscore, I can produce
 \ar@//[r]
by typing this literally.  When I type the underscore literally, LyX 
produces

 \ar@/_{/}[r]
which doesn't work.  If I try to use ERT, I get
 \ar@/\_/[r]
which doesn't work because of the extra backslash.

My apologies for the double-post.  I hope this clarifies things.  Thanks!

If you remove the corresponding entries from the toplevel .pro
the compilation erroes can be avoided.

And yes, this speeds up compilation enormously.

I can not get balance columns

[Marcelo Acuÿfffff1a]

Hi,
  I am writing a book with koma-script with two columns.
  I want get balance columns at the end of each chapter.
  I search in Google for it.
  I put in preamble
  \usepackage{balance}
  and, with ERT, \balance
  and \nobalance
  in accordance with manual of this package.
  I can´t get that it work OK.
  Or all text appears in right column or nothing
  occurs.
  How can I get balance end of chapter and chapter*?
   
  Thanks in advance.

problems with page style empty

[Marcelo Acuÿfffff1a]

Hi,
  I want that pages with title of part and
   first page of each chapter appears
   without page number.
  I put an ERT with
  \thispagestyle{empty}
  on each of this pages.
  Ths work OK but now appears garbage in TOC.
  " p" characters and word "plain" appears in
  several times in TOC.
  This error occurs only in part, not in part*.
  How I can get solved this problem?

(I assume from your previous email that you are using a koma-script class.)
Add the following commands to your preamble:

\renewcommand*{\partpagestyle}{empty}
\renewcommand*{\chapterpagestyle}{empty}

For more infos about the \xxxpagestyle-commands look at the koma-script

using hyperlinks?

[Stacia Hartleben]

I'm using the \usepackage{hyperref} in my preamble, and when I write a
URL in the text, it will turn into a link, however the 
\href{http://www.lyx.org}{LyX} type things do not work and just show
the plain text "LyX" without a link. What am I doing wrong?

Problem: "Export to PDF (pdflatex)"

[Stefan Grübler]

Hello

I have a Problem with exporting a lyx document to pdf documents (pdflatex).
When I click on "File->Export->PDF (pdflatex)" the programm doesn't do 
anything.

The same story with the other menu points in "File->Export->...".
If I choose the menu item "View->PDF (pdflatex)", I can see a perfect 
PDF-File in Adobe Acrobat Reader.


Why don't any export function work?

Bye

Hallo

Ich habe ein Problem beim Exportieren von Lyx-Dokumenten in 
PDF-Dokumente (pdflatex).
Wenn ich auf den Menüpunkt "Datei->Exportieren->PDF (pdflatex)" macht 
das Programm überhaupt nichts. Das selbe passiert mit den anderen 
Menüpunkten in "Datei->Exportieren->...".
Klicke ich aber auf den Menüpunkt "Ansicht->PDF (pdflatex)" funktioniert 
alles einwandfrei.

Ich sehe ein perfektes Dokument im Adobe Acrobat Reader.

Warum funktioniert die Export-Funktion nicht?

Tschüß

The comand is correct. What is your document output type? If you 
generate a PDF using Export/View -> PDF(pdflatex) it should work.

It seems that your working directory/folder where LyX saves the 
converted files don't have write permissions. Could that be?
If you are using LyX under windows version 1.3.5 or older, please assure 
that the LyX folders have write permissions for "Everybody".

IIRC hyperref only works with pdflatex export route.

Try that and it should work.
