   I am curious why sometimes the Tab key moves the cursor from cell to
cell
in a table and other times appends (unwanted) text to the data in the cell.

   Most of the time [Tab] moves the cursor to the next cell to the right
(or
the next row from the end of the row above) but sometimes it generates
unwanted text. For example, in a table cell I enter '10' and press [Tab];
the result is '10-years'. In another cell I entered 'June' and when the
[Tab] key is pressed the contents are changed to 'JuneJune'.


It is because Tab is a multi-bound key (I am not sure this terms means 
anything) and one of these bindings is completion-accept..


\bind Tabcommand-alternatives 
completion-accept;cell-forward;tab-insert;depth-increment;outline-in


command-alternatives means that all these possibilities are tried 
one-by-one until one of them is enabled. If you look at the 
possibilities, you see that everything is about moving, except 
completion-accept and tab-insert. I would assume that tab-insert is OK 
(it will work only in some cases of text-only insets IIRC), but 
completion-accept is a different case.


The problem with completion accept in this setting is that it is totally 
unpredictable. The user will not be able to know whether a completion is 
going to happen or not (Hmm, or maybe the cursor style tells this?).


What would other people think about removing it from the Tab binding and 
putting it somewhere else? The alternative would be to have it as last 
choice.


Rich, the short answer is that, if you do not use completion, you can 
just turn it off.

Would this be equivalent to removing it? If it is after tab-insert,
won't any place that enables completion-accept also enable tab-insert
and thus completion-accept would never be run? I have not tested
anything and I don't even know why completion is offered in this case.
I think I've only seen completion when entering LaTeX in math.

Jean-Marc,

  Oh. In all the years I've used LyX I only very recently started to see
this behavior and I greatly appreciate your explaining the cause.

  I vote yes to removing it or, at least, putting completion-accept at the
very end.

  Not knowing before now that I had the option I'll go look for where I can

Many thanks,

Problem with movies in Pdfs with media9

[Uwe Ade]

Hello,

with lyx  I will create a (beamer-)pdf with an include movie. 

I use the package media 9
The last to days I´m not able to get a pdf-document. Every times i compile the 
lyx-file, i get  some Error-Messages.

Have someone no the list experience with this idea

If I compile the file which send with this mail, the following Errors appears

 \lyxframeend
{}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.

Hi Uwe,

I don't think I'll be able to help you with your problem but I wanted
to test your .lyx file. It would not compile for me because you have
some paths in there that are specific to your computer. It might help
if you sent a complete example (and perhaps link to a small video in
the format you are trying to use). See here for some tips:

multiple appendices

[Andreas]

Hi all,

I'm currently putting together my thesis which consists of four papers. Each of
these papers has an appendix. I include all chapters as subdocuments in a main
file. I would like each appendix to be displayed directly after the respective
chapter. However, after the first appendix the remainder of the whole document
is treated as appendix.

How can I go back to normal text after I inserted an appendix?

Thank you very much for your help!!!

Best,
Andreas

using siunitx in tables

[Andreas Hilboll]

Hi,

I would like to use the siunitx package for tables, as shown in this post:

   http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/100077/7434

However, I don't know how I can specify the column types like this in LyX (2.0.4
on Ubuntu).

Your help is greatly appreciated :)

Cheers, Andreas.

Automatic save of PDF

[Anders Host-Madsen]

Is it possible to configure/program LyX so that whenever the LyX files is saved
by the user (not auto-save) the pdf version (and latex) version is also saved
(without the warning about overwrite)? I realized I do this hundred of times
every day: save the LyX file then export it to pdf. It would be nice if it could
be done automatically.

Replace 'buffer-view' with 'buffer-write'.

If you want to change the shortcut ctrl + s to do this, go to
preferences  editing  shortcuts  and change the shortcut to the

Would this be equivalent to removing it? If it is after tab-insert,
won't any place that enables completion-accept also enable tab-insert
and thus completion-accept would never be run? I have not tested
anything and I don't even know why completion is offered in this case.
I think I've only seen completion when entering LaTeX in math.


tab-insert is only possible when the paragraph is PassThru.

It is because Tab is a multi-bound key (I am not sure this terms means 
anything) and one of these bindings is completion-accept..


\bind "Tab""command-alternatives 
completion-accept;cell-forward;tab-insert;depth-increment;outline-in"


Jean-Marc,

  Oh. In all the years I've used LyX I only very recently started to see
this behavior and I greatly appreciate your explaining the cause.

choice.


  I vote yes to removing it or, at least, putting completion-accept at the
very end.


Rich, the short answer is that, if you do not use completion, you can just
turn it off.


  Not knowing before now that I had the option I'll go look for where I can
do this when I return later this morning from a meeting.

Many thanks,

Rich

Problem with movies in Pdfs with media9

[Uwe Ade]

Hello,

with lyx  I will create a (beamer-)pdf with an include movie. 

I use the package media 9
The last to days I´m not able to get a pdf-document. Every times i compile the 
lyx-file, i get  some Error-Messages.

Have someone no the list experience with this idea

If I compile the file which send with this mail, the following Errors appears

 \lyxframeend
{}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.

Every help or example are welcome

Hi Uwe,

I don't think I'll be able to help you with your problem but I wanted
to test your .lyx file. It would not compile for me because you have
some paths in there that are specific to your computer. It might help
if you sent a complete example (and perhaps link to a small video in
the format you are trying to use). See here for some tips:

multiple appendices

[Andreas]

Hi all,

I'm currently putting together my thesis which consists of four papers. Each of
these papers has an appendix. I include all chapters as subdocuments in a main
file. I would like each appendix to be displayed directly after the respective
chapter. However, after the first appendix the remainder of the whole document
is treated as appendix.

How can I go back to normal text after I inserted an appendix?

Thank you very much for your help!!!

Best,
Andreas

using siunitx in tables

[Andreas Hilboll]

Hi,

I would like to use the siunitx package for tables, as shown in this post:

   http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/100077/7434

However, I don't know how I can specify the column types like this in LyX (2.0.4
on Ubuntu).

Your help is greatly appreciated :)

Cheers, Andreas.

Automatic save of PDF

[Anders Host-Madsen]

Is it possible to configure/program LyX so that whenever the LyX files is saved
by the user (not auto-save) the pdf version (and latex) version is also saved
(without the warning about overwrite)? I realized I do this hundred of times
every day: save the LyX file then export it to pdf. It would be nice if it could
be done automatically.

Hi Anders,

See the answer here:
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/71110/can-lyx-automatically-save-the-pdf-output-in-the-same-folder/71212#71212

Replace 'buffer-view' with 'buffer-write'.

If you want to change the shortcut ctrl + s to do this, go to
preferences > editing > shortcuts > and change the shortcut to the
appropriate command-sequence.

Hi Uwe,

Thanks for the updated example. I can reproduce your error. The ERT
you use needs you to also load a package. To do this, go to Document >
Settings > LaTeX Preamble and paste in there the following line:
\usepackage{media9}

After that, it compiles for me without error. When I view the pdf I
can't confirm that the video plays because I don't have the required
software.

Does that work?

Best,

Scott

Re: Problem with movies in Pdfs with media9

[Uwe Ade]

Hi Scott,

unfortunately not. I changed the Latex Preamble as suggested. After recompiling 
there are three Errormessages

undefined control sequence

}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.


Latex Error: Missing:\beginn{document}
 }
You're in trouble here. Try typing  to proceed.
If that doesn't work, type X  to quit.

undefined control sequence

 \lyxframeend
{}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.
