The manual can be downloaded from http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/DocumentationDevelopment#Extended-Insets I'm happily surprized that I got so much feedback about this. Hi Uwe, Just want to send you a big THANK YOU - this is a wonderful document! I especially like your approach of not refraining from falling back to ERT boxes, but providing lots of examples to achieve things with just a little bit of extra LaTeX code. For people like me, who have started with LyX without any LaTeX background this is just perfect. I really do not mind to have to insert LaTeX snippets for certain formattings and other advanced stuff. The tedious and frustrating part is, however, to find the right snippets and packages and to understand where exactly to insert the ERT boxes and how they interact with the LyX code. Your manual provides exactly this kind of information. Just two suggestions: 1) An example, how to define the character style (font, size) to be used as default for all cells of a table would be cool. 2) An example, how to modify the in-cell margins (the space between the table grid lines and the actual cell data) would be great as well. IMHO, the LyX/LaTeX defaults waste way to much space here, however, all my attempts to change this have failed so far :-( Personal side comment: Having tried a couple of times, I still think that LaTeX really sucks compared to visual tools like Word or Excel if it comes to creating non-trivial tables. This is especially true, if one has to build dense, space-optimized tables which present a huge set of information in as little space as possible e.g. because there is some page-limit. The manual fiddling with column-widths, in-cell line breaks and stuff like that is just painful and the graphical table editor in LyX is not really helpful for this task either, as one has to control the output anyway. Often the LyX-Representation is even contra-intuitive: One has to set very small column width in LyX (which makes the cells in the LyX-Editor almost unreadable and uneditable) to get the optimal width in the DVI/PDF output. As a consequence, I often end up in designing my tables with Word or Excel and printing them into an EPS file... There is one exception, though. The LaTeX support for long tables is definitely better. However, I barely need long tables. In most cases, I just want it to make my table fit on the page. Daniel
Redefining environments
I really want to use LyX for writing my dissertation, but the uni has a specific style they require. Is there a simple way to redefine the various environments? If the only way to change the settings is through the Character dialog and such tweeking with the layout menu I might as well use a standard word processor because it's going to be just as time consuming.
lyx to word conversion
This was recently discussed and I thought (hoped) I would never have to do it and never followed closely. I did search the lyx-users archive back to early August '06 without luck. (Social Forces requires manuscripts only as MS Word docs!) The pretty-good solutions I think of require error-inviting fix-ups. The best I find is latex2rtf, and rtf import to openoffice, then cut and past the bibliography as text and hand fix. However, this leaves documentation as bibtex index terms. Is there a postscript to rtf tool? I found one commercial converter. While I am no purist re open source, I won't buy software to use once or twice. Has anyone found an elegant and complete unix solution (perhaps an rtf DEVICE for gs)? I fear that in the social sciences (and possibly humanities) more and more journals will see no problem treating word as a standard. If so, those of us who stick with 'nix tools will need the conversion.

break long equation into two lines
Hello, When working with math formula in equation array mode, I found out that my equation is too long on the page. I want to break it to two lines. Is there a way do that ? All my equations are numbered (with label), when breaking long equation into two lines, the first line should not be numbered. Thanks for any help. RDB -- Reuben D. Budiardja Dept.

Using the split or gathered environments may do what you want, or use eqnarray (multiline equation) and do Alt-m shift-n to suppress numbering on the current line (lyx uses eqnarray* which doesn't number equations by default so you will probably need to start with Alt-M n to number all lines and then suppress numbering on the lines you want) Thanks for any help.
