LyX and cp1251
Hello lyx-users, I have a problem using LyX in Win32 environment: After I import an existing LaTeX document written in Russian using cp1251 encoding, LyX displays the document in KOI8-r encoding which looks like garbage. I do not know how to make LyX to use cp1251 encoding to display (and also to insert modifications into) documents. Note that cp1251 is standard encoding in Win32 for presenting texts in Russian.

LabelCounter behaves strangely
Hi all,
I am writing a new layout for my document class and I need several
styles of parts that would display like this:
---
Part 1
Part title
Plain text ...
---
Since several LyX standard layouts support Chapter style that does
exactly this, I was optimistic when I started reading LyX documentation
and experimenting with different layouts provided with LyX. I tried to
define my own counters and do something like:
Counter
Name mypartcounter
End
Style MyPart
Margin Dynamic
LatexType Command
Align Center
OptionalArgs1
Font
Series Bold
SizeHuge
EndFont
End
Style MyPart
LabelType Counter
LabelCountermypartcounter
LabelString MyPart \arabic{mypartcounter}
End
This is a direct translation of Chapter definitions from LyX layout
files. However this produced something different than the Chapter
definition -- it refused to type the part name on the next line. I
played for some time and then found out that I can achieve the desired
behavior if I rename the counter ('mypartcounter') to be 'chapter'!
Which is very strange, since my layout knows nothing about LyX standard
layouts and 'chapter' should be just an arbitrary string. So does LyX
have a hard-coded behavior based on which strings are used as counter
names?
I also found the following from the LyX documentation (Customizing LyX:
Features for the Advanced User, Section 5):
LabelCounter [Chapter, Section, Subsection, Subsubsection, Paragraph,
Subparagraph, EnumI, EnumII, EnumIII, EnumIV]
This hints that there are only those 10 counter names accepted. However
I have been able to define my own counters for other styles very well
and use them with LabelCounter as well. And on the other hand, Chapter,
Section, Subsection, etc. are themselves defined in standard layout
files and ideally, neither LyX documentation nor LyX itself should know
anything about those a priori.
But apparently they do.
So I have the following questions. Is the display of Chapter style
really hard coded into LyX? Is is possible to define other styles with
the same behavior? And why should a counter name influence the display?
Or am I reading something very wrongly?
I wouldn't really mind using the chapter counter, the only trouble is
that I need several different styles like that and I can not use the
same counter name for all of them.
I'd be grateful if someone from the developers could answer this
problems and I hope that they read lyx-users list, too. Or is another
mailing list better?
Best regards,
Jan

Re: Replicating a document layout
On Wednesday 27 December 2006 11:43, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I guess this could be done in several ways. The best and easiest in the long run would be to hire someone to craft a new LaTeX class, lyx layout and template. However, this would not be gratis and might be a bigger investment than you are willing to do at the moment. Yeah, and it would have to be an investment out of my own pocket. I'm going against the grain here suggesting migrating away from Word at all, and any hint that the company might have to pay money in order to make this move will shut it down instantly. I could argue that the time savings will more than pay for it (people do spend an awful lot of time tweaking Word docs, and dealing with the lack of decent revision management), but I already have to use that argument to justify retraining time. Therefore starting with something that are already supported in LyX and live with some changes and warts until you are committed to LyX may be the easiest and best starting point. Yes. And if I can find something reasonably close, that will be good enough. The format isn't set in stone, I mostly just need to get all the data elements in place and layed out similarly to the existing template. Have you tried koma-skript article ? It has a lot more options out of the box, but might not have the look you want ? I'll look at it, thanks. Another tip is that the label do not matter that much, institute can become copyright statement or document owner if it looks right on paper. And in LyX you can change the name from institute to copyright statement by changing the layout file. That seems like it should be very easy. You can also remove styles from the layoutfile that are not used to make it even more userfriendly. That's a good idea. I do need to make this as much of a no-brainer as possible. My colleagues are plenty smart, but I need to eliminate all possible obstacles. Well, as I said, some pointers to get you started. Do not hesitate to ask questions if you have some questions. Rest assured that I will! PS do not forget to read the help-Customization chapter 5. Doing it now. Thanks again, Shawn.

LyX and cp1251
Hello lyx-users, I have a problem using LyX in Win32 environment: After I import an existing LaTeX document written in Russian using cp1251 encoding, LyX displays the document in KOI8-r encoding which looks like garbage. I do not know how to make LyX to use cp1251 encoding to display (and also to insert modifications into) documents. Note that cp1251 is standard encoding in Win32 for presenting texts in Russian.

LabelCounter behaves strangely
Hi all,
I am writing a new layout for my document class and I need several
styles of parts that would display like this:
---
Part 1
Part title
Plain text ...
---
Since several LyX standard layouts support Chapter style that does
exactly this, I was optimistic when I started reading LyX documentation
and experimenting with different layouts provided with LyX. I tried to
define my own counters and do something like:
Counter
Name mypartcounter
End
Style MyPart
Margin Dynamic
LatexType Command
Align Center
OptionalArgs1
Font
Series Bold
SizeHuge
EndFont
End
Style MyPart
LabelType Counter
LabelCountermypartcounter
LabelString MyPart \arabic{mypartcounter}
End
This is a direct translation of Chapter definitions from LyX layout
files. However this produced something different than the Chapter
definition -- it refused to type the part name on the next line. I
played for some time and then found out that I can achieve the desired
behavior if I rename the counter ('mypartcounter') to be 'chapter'!
Which is very strange, since my layout knows nothing about LyX standard
layouts and 'chapter' should be just an arbitrary string. So does LyX
have a hard-coded behavior based on which strings are used as counter
names?
I also found the following from the LyX documentation (Customizing LyX:
Features for the Advanced User, Section 5):
LabelCounter [Chapter, Section, Subsection, Subsubsection, Paragraph,
Subparagraph, EnumI, EnumII, EnumIII, EnumIV]
This hints that there are only those 10 counter names accepted. However
I have been able to define my own counters for other styles very well
and use them with LabelCounter as well. And on the other hand, Chapter,
Section, Subsection, etc. are themselves defined in standard layout
files and ideally, neither LyX documentation nor LyX itself should know
anything about those a priori.
But apparently they do.
So I have the following questions. Is the display of Chapter style
really hard coded into LyX? Is is possible to define other styles with
the same behavior? And why should a counter name influence the display?
Or am I reading something very wrongly?
I wouldn't really mind using the chapter counter, the only trouble is
that I need several different styles like that and I can not use the
same counter name for all of them.
I'd be grateful if someone from the developers could answer this
problems and I hope that they read lyx-users list, too. Or is another
mailing list better?
Best regards,
Jan

Re: Replicating a document layout
On Wednesday 27 December 2006 11:43, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I guess this could be done in several ways. The best and easiest in the long run would be to hire someone to craft a new LaTeX class, lyx layout and template. However, this would not be gratis and might be a bigger investment than you are willing to do at the moment. Yeah, and it would have to be an investment out of my own pocket. I'm going against the grain here suggesting migrating away from Word at all, and any hint that the company might have to pay money in order to make this move will shut it down instantly. I could argue that the time savings will more than pay for it (people do spend an awful lot of time tweaking Word docs, and dealing with the lack of decent revision management), but I already have to use that argument to justify retraining time. Therefore starting with something that are already supported in LyX and live with some changes and warts until you are committed to LyX may be the easiest and best starting point. Yes. And if I can find something reasonably close, that will be good enough. The format isn't set in stone, I mostly just need to get all the data elements in place and layed out similarly to the existing template. Have you tried koma-skript article ? It has a lot more options out of the box, but might not have the look you want ? I'll look at it, thanks. Another tip is that the label do not matter that much, institute can become copyright statement or document owner if it looks right on paper. And in LyX you can change the name from institute to copyright statement by changing the layout file. That seems like it should be very easy. You can also remove styles from the layoutfile that are not used to make it even more userfriendly. That's a good idea. I do need to make this as much of a no-brainer as possible. My colleagues are plenty smart, but I need to eliminate all possible obstacles. Well, as I said, some pointers to get you started. Do not hesitate to ask questions if you have some questions. Rest assured that I will! PS do not forget to read the help-Customization chapter 5. Doing it now. Thanks again, Shawn.

It should be somewhere at the beginning of the file. Change that line to \inputencoding cp1251 , and it should work. If it does not work, file a bug at http://bugzilla.lyx,org, and attach a minimal exmple .tex file along with the created .lyx file (unedited). Georg

Hello lyx-users, I have a problem using LyX in Win32 environment: After I import an existing LaTeX document written in Russian using cp1251 encoding, LyX displays the document in KOI8-r encoding which looks like garbage. I do not know how to make LyX to use cp1251 encoding to display (and also to insert modifications into) documents. Note that cp1251 is standard encoding in Win32 for presenting texts in Russian. Best regards, Vladimir Yumashev

That file is in the new format of LyX 1.5.0svn. The last released 1.4. version (probably 1.4.5) will e able to read this format, but for now the conversion to older formats can only be done with LyX 1.5.0svn, and only partially. Georg
LabelCounter behaves strangely
Hi all,
I am writing a new layout for my document class and I need several
styles of parts that would display like this:
---
Part 1
Part title
Plain text ...
---
Since several LyX standard layouts support Chapter style that does
exactly this, I was optimistic when I started reading LyX documentation
and experimenting with different layouts provided with LyX. I tried to
define my own counters and do something like:
Counter
Name mypartcounter
End
Style MyPart
Margin Dynamic
LatexType Command
Align Center
OptionalArgs1
Font
Series Bold
SizeHuge
EndFont
End
Style MyPart
LabelType Counter
LabelCountermypartcounter
LabelString "MyPart \arabic{mypartcounter}"
End
This is a direct translation of Chapter definitions from LyX layout
files. However this produced something different than the Chapter
definition -- it refused to type the part name on the next line. I
played for some time and then found out that I can achieve the desired
behavior if I rename the counter ('mypartcounter') to be 'chapter'!
Which is very strange, since my layout knows nothing about LyX standard
layouts and 'chapter' should be just an arbitrary string. So does LyX
have a hard-coded behavior based on which strings are used as counter
names?
I also found the following from the LyX documentation (Customizing LyX:
Features for the Advanced User, Section 5):
LabelCounter [Chapter, Section, Subsection, Subsubsection, Paragraph,
Subparagraph, EnumI, EnumII, EnumIII, EnumIV]
This hints that there are only those 10 counter names accepted. However
I have been able to define my own counters for other styles very well
and use them with LabelCounter as well. And on the other hand, Chapter,
Section, Subsection, etc. are themselves defined in standard layout
files and ideally, neither LyX documentation nor LyX itself should know
anything about those a priori.
But apparently they do.
So I have the following questions. Is the display of Chapter style
really hard coded into LyX? Is is possible to define other styles with
the same behavior? And why should a counter name influence the display?
Or am I reading something very wrongly?
I wouldn't really mind using the chapter counter, the only trouble is
that I need several different styles like that and I can not use the
same counter name for all of them.
I'd be grateful if someone from the developers could answer this
problems and I hope that they read lyx-users list, too. Or is another
mailing list better?
Best regards,
Jan

I'm going against the grain here suggesting migrating away from Word at all, and any hint that the company might have to pay money in order to make this move will shut it down instantly. I could argue that the time savings will more than pay for it (people do spend an awful lot of time tweaking Word docs, and dealing with the lack of decent revision management), but I already have to use that argument to justify retraining time. > Therefore > starting with something that are already supported in LyX and live with > some changes and warts until you are committed to LyX may be the > easiest and best starting point. Yes. And if I can find something reasonably close, that will be good enough. The format isn't set in stone, I mostly just need to get all the data elements in place and layed out similarly to the existing template. > Have you tried koma-skript article ?

I do need to make this as much of a "no-brainer" as possible. My colleagues are plenty smart, but I need to eliminate all possible obstacles. > Well, as I said, some pointers to get you started.

Note that > cp1251 is standard encoding in Win32 for > presenting texts in Russian. tex2lyx (which is used to import .tex files) does unfortunately not know anything about encodings, therefore some default encoding ill be used. Fortunately there is an easy workaround: Open the created .lyx file with a text editor, and search for a line \inputencoding auto (or koi8-r) instead of auto). It should be somewhere at the beginning of the file. Change that line to \inputencoding cp1251 , and it should work. If it does not work, file a bug at http://bugzilla.lyx,org, and attach a minimal exmple .tex file along with the created .lyx file (unedited). Georg
\includegraphics doesn't find pictures
Hi again. I just created a new account, logged in, started lyx 1.4.3 and created the lyx file attached. I try to view the file but all I get is dvips: Could not find figure file /tmp//int_area.eps; continuing I try lyx -e pdf and lyx -e ps with the same result, but lyx -e latex newfile1.lyx and then latex newfile1.tex gives me a dvi file with the desired result. Why can't I view it from inside lyx? newfile1.lyx Description: application/lyx
