Re: Lyx-Miktex problems on Windows 10

[Cris Fuhrman]

I had a similar problem earlier this week. The cause was the MikTeX mirror
I was using was reporting that versions of LaTeX elements were present, but
when the updater would run from LyX to install missing things, it would
fail. The errors show in LyX message console, but they aren't fatal. I
discovered this by running the update/package manager myself outside of
LyX.

The short term solution was to choose another LaTeX distribution mirror in
MikTeX updater by running it outside LyX.

Maybe a biblatex bug. Could you try to upgrade to the most recent
version?

I think we should enable the context menu even if the icons are greyed

Ehud,

It works without a document being open, so long as you pick a live icon. 
With no document open, try the "New Document" or "Open Document" icon on 
the main tool bar.


Working in a GUI where I'm not sure how to do something, I frequently 
resort to "right click anything that can't outrun me" until I find what

These are natbib commands, but you use biblatex, not natbib. That's wyh
you get the errors.

Put the following into Document > Settings > Local Layout:

Provides natbib 1

Then you can use all natbib citations styles with biblatex (provided
that you use biblatex's natbib=true option).

[BIBLATEX] LyX 2.1.4, citation issue

[Oliver Margraf]

Dear LyXers,

after using LyX now for over a decade (thanks to the developers, great
job!), I recently ran into a slight problem where I haven't been able
yet to figure out what the cause could be.
I'm currently writing an assignment and need to cite literature. For
doing so I use biblatex and biber as backend - works fine. However when
I want to adjust the form of the citation (as it can be achieved when
selecting the style pre-defined in the bib entry mask), the form I need
is not available. In general this is no problem, since once can adjust
this with either of the following commands:

\bibpunct{(}{)}{,}{a}{ }{,}

\setcitestyle{aysep={ }}

The style I need is without a comma after the author and the year in
brackets, e.g. Miller (2013), S. 145
In the PDF with the selected style from the bib entry menu (which I
think should use this style), it is displayed as Miller, (2013, S. 145)

After looking through the web, the solutions I found suggest, that you
just put one of the two mentioned commands in your preamble. However by
doing so, I get an error when I try to compile the doc. It says: " \bibpunct
  {(}{)}{a}{,}{,}
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."

So, what could this be? When I try to use the \usepackage{natbib} in the
preamble, I get also an error, that natbib is already in use - which is
logical, since it is activated in the settings.

I'm using XeTeX for compiling, LyX 2.1.4 and TeXlive 2015 - running on
Linux Mint

Attached is a small example with my current settings.
Would be great if someone could point me on something I'm missing.

Yes, the following code in the preamble fixes it:

\renewcommand{\@todonotes@drawMarginNote}{%
\if@todonotes@dviStyle%
\begin{tikzpicture}[remember picture]%
\draw node[notestyle] {};%
\end{tikzpicture}\\%
\begin{minipage}{\@todonotes@textwidth}%
\if@todonotes@authorgiven%
  \@todonotes@sizecommand \@todonotes@author \@todonotes@text%
\else%
  \@todonotes@sizecommand \@todonotes@text%
\fi%
\end{minipage}\\%
\begin{tikzpicture}[remember picture]%
\draw node[notestyle] (inNote) {};%
\end{tikzpicture}%
\else%
\let\originalHbadness\hbadness%
\hbadness 10%
\begin{tikzpicture}[remember picture,baseline=(X.base)]%
% Fix 1: consider \@todonotes@sizecommand here!
\node(X){\vphantom{\@todonotes@sizecommand X}};%
\draw node[notestyle,font=\@todonotes@sizecommand,anchor=north]
(inNote) at (X.north)%
% Fix 2: don't output \@todonotes@text twice
{};%{\@todonotes@text};%
\if@todonotes@authorgiven%
\draw node[notestyle,font=\@todonotes@sizecommand,anchor=no
rth] (inNote) at (X.north)%
{\@todonotes@sizecommand\@todonotes@author};%
\node(Y)[below=of X]{};%
\draw node[notestyle,font=\@todonotes@sizecommand,anchor=no
rth] (inNote) at (X.south)%
{\@todonotes@text};%
\else%
\draw node[notestyle,font=\@todonotes@sizecommand,anchor=no
rth] (inNote) at (X.north)%
{\@todonotes@text};%
\fi%
\end{tikzpicture}%
\hbadness \originalHbadness%
\fi}%

I'll do a bug report.
