Re: caption for tables and figures

[Benedict Holland]

Hi Katrin,

My guess is you want something like this.
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/150314/change-table-caption-numbering

You will probably need to create the tables using latex. I am unsure if Lyx
has a specific way of doing what you want. My guess is that you want to
renew the thetable command.

Thanks,
~Ben

Welcome,
Can you supply a minimal example showing the problem?
There are some suggestions on how to prepare such a example at

caption for tables and figures

[Hirsch, Katrin]

To whom it may concern,

I am using lyx for a while now to write my thesis. It's a nice software as long 
as you know the little bits and bobs. But I sorted tables and so on. Now I have 
a problem in setting the numbering of my tables and figures (and equations) in 
a document of the class books(standard class with extra fond sizes). I intend 
to have only one level in the numbering . But the software seems to set the 
levels with respect to the chapter hierarchy.  Is there a way to change the 
settings for the numbering of Tables, figures ... and equations as well?

Kind regards

Did you move the cursor out of the frame title inset?

Beamer frames with long titles prevent subsequent entering of text, graphics or new frames

[UD]

I am not sure if this is a bug (it sure does not look like a feature 
;-), but I discovered that I cannot enter any text or do anything else 
in a frame that has a title that exceeds the width of the page, causing 
the title to wrap around (which is fine), and totally prevent the 
creation of a new frame. None of the various ways of starting a new 
frame, inserting graphics or entering text seem to work after such a 
deadly long title (see attached MWE).


The only (ugly) way I found around it is to use a dummy short title, and 
after I am done creating the frame, insert the real (long) title I 
wanted in the first place.


Can anyone shed light on this?  Was this intentional?

Write one symbol over another

[racoon]

Hi,

I would like to write a minus (-) over a delta (\delta). By over I do 
not mean above but that the minus stroke through the delta. (I need it 
to be the minus and not some other strike through version.)


I played a bit around with \mathrlab, \mathclap, and \mathllap but could 
not figure it our.


I managed to get it done with four negative spaces (\!) but that is 
probably not the correct way to do it.


Any ideas?

Daniel

As of forthcoming LyX 2.2.3, this workaround will no longer be
necessary.
