Re: Sectioned and multiple references in the same document

2016-09-03 Thread John Kane 
Ah yes,  I see your point. Trial and error to the nth degree. Still I think
those hints will help even if I am left saying "I am not going to write a
dissertation", NO, NO! Not with Miede's!

The unfortunate thing is that Miede's classicthesis is so seductive that
people writing books and monographs may get sucked in.  Come to think of
it, I already know one historian who intends to use it for his dissertation.
So we probably need any and every hint we can get.
Thanks

Not unless bash scripting counts.

Sorry, I should have reported my version running on Debian Jessie:

LyX 2.1.2 (2014-09-16)
Built on Sep 29 2014, 11:07:17
Configuration
  Host type:x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
  Special build flags:  build=release warnings use-enchant
  C++ Compiler: g++ (4.9.1)
  C++ Compiler LyX flags:
  C++ Compiler flags:   -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -g -O2 
-fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security
  Linker flags:
  Linker user flags:-Wl,-z,defs -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-z,relro
  Qt 4 Frontend:
  Qt 4 version: 4.8.6
  Packaging:posix
  LyX binary dir:   /usr/bin
  LyX files dir:/usr/share/lyx

I think the crux of the problem is described in this email:

https://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg102676.html

Unfourtunately QT (unline Java or GTK+) by default doesn't use X11's
rendering capabilities anymore - instead it rasterizes everything
itself and sends pre-rasterized image data to the X server.
For Lyx this means that when typing, QT always sends images back
instead of just the drawing commands.

There used to be options to revert back to using X11 drawing commands,
however I am not up to date in this matter.

It feels like -graphicssystem native has no effect on the rendering of
typing, while it does help almost everything else.

I'm not sure then.

We should start a wiki page for SSH + LyX listing ways to improve speed,
since this question keeps coming up.

Well, the thread suggests ssh compression and the use of the
graphicssystem option I was already using.  graphicssystem fixes things
like window scrolling and menus, but it doesn't fix typing speed.

Remote X11 is slow for typing

Are there any tricks to using LyX with remote X11, beyond using 
-graphicssystem native?  That helps, but typing is still very slow, i.e. 
one character change a second.

John, I do not feel competent to provide sort of directions what to do. 
I must have done too many
things wrong from the beginning. So tracking back is not possible even 
if I wanted to.

Furthermore, each case is most probably different.
But if somebody needs help in setting up sectioned plus multiple 
bibliographies together (in a document
based on Miede's classicthesis, using the master-child concept) I am 
prepared to share my experience.


Lyx 2.1.3, classicthesis-LyX-v4.1, linguistic modules loaded

Though, a couple of things make me wonder, e. g. the following:
With me, sectioned bibliographies only work if using 'unsrt' or 
unsrtnat' which to me makes sense.
The bibtopic documentation says that bibtopic does not work  with (or 
does not support?)  'unsrt'.

But here it does and everything works just perfect without compromise.
The style option in the first line of the ERT (screenshot) may be plain, 
plainnat, unsrt, unsrtnat or may
even be removed without effecting the document or the format of any of 
its seven different bibliographies.


The bibliography default style in both the master and the child is set 
to 'unsrtnat' and this one obviously

determines the format of all the document's bibliographies.

The child's preamble only has two lines:

\usepackage[style=long,nolist]{glossaries}

\usepackage{bibtopic}

I hope my experience can be of help to other users although there may 
not be too many working on


documents with similar structure and challenges.

Cheers,

Michael
