Re: tmp directory
What version of lyx are you using I know I use to have that problem under linux with older versions (pre 1.3 I think).

If I want to insert an eps- and a jpg-file the jpg-image looks much smaller than the eps although both columns are sized 50% and the images within their columns are sized 100%.

Ctrl-Shift-M
enter something

then insert a label INTO the equation by going to insert then down to label.

Re: different ways of citing in article text
Yep Paul is right. There may be some extra latex options that you can
use to get it cited in diferent ways. These can be seen in the .sty or
bst file associated with the reference format. They generally look like
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@fcitenam}%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@fciteasn}}%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
lyx as standard puts \cite{my_book}. In ERT you may be able to put
something like \citeasnoun{my_book}. From the GUI boxes in lyx it looks
like the option to select these diferent types is coming but I assume
since diferent reference formats have some what diferent commands its
hard to smoothly impliment.
For the style I use \cite{my_book} puts (Lucas, 2002) and
\citeasnoun{my_book} as Lucas (2002). In effect I have it the other way
round for what you want.

change the file

Re: section and figure heads
here is my hatchet latex job
This requires some mucking arround with some of the settings in the .cls
in your preamble or at the start of your document. With the number of
mods you want to do it may be worth copying the article.cls file and
editing that.
as for the size of the section headers etc you need change the part in
the cls file that says something like the following
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
{-3.5ex [EMAIL PROTECTED] -1ex [EMAIL PROTECTED]
-.2ex}%
{2.3ex [EMAIL PROTECTED]
{\normalfont\Large\bfseries}}
you could just copy this to the preamble and change the \newcommand to
\renewcommand and then play with the \Large command perhaps change it to
\large
As for the dot that should be easy but I tryed what I expected would
work and it didnt so perhaps some one else can help you there.
as for the figure change you should be able to put in ERT at the top of
your document (I dont think it works in the preamble)
\renewcommand\figurename{\normalfont\normalsize\bfseries Figure}
\renewcommand\tablename{\normalfont\normalsize\bfseries Table}
and so on
once again I dont know about the . but I would have expected that there
was one there automaticly.
but realy copy article.cls to myarticle.cls and change it to do what you
want. ofcause this is not exactly as simple as changing just the bits
you want and you will need to also mod a .layout file

Hi
I am using the article format with 10pt times fonts.
I need to change the defaults for the look of the section and figure
headers.
I need to reduce the size of the section heads defaults so that it
is 12pt boldface (not 14pt)
I also need to have a dot . after the section number
I need to also reduce to 12pt the Referenced header.
For figures, I need the Figure x. to be in 10 pt helvetica boldface
with a dot . not a colon (the default),
and the caption to be helvetica 10pt.
Same thing for tables.
I looked at the lyx tricks website but could not find such details.
thanks

As for the dot that should be easy but I tryed what I expected would
work and it didnt so perhaps some one else can help you there.
as for the figure change you should be able to put in ERT at the top of
your document (I dont think it works in the preamble)
\renewcommand\figurename{\normalfont\normalsize\bfseries Figure}
\renewcommand\tablename{\normalfont\normalsize\bfseries Table}
and so on
once again I dont know about the . but I would have expected that there
was one there automaticly.
but realy copy article.cls to myarticle.cls and change it to do what you
want. ofcause this is not exactly as simple as changing just the bits
you want and you will need to also mod a .layout file

Hi
I am using the article format with 10pt times fonts.
I need to change the defaults for the look of the section and figure
headers.
I need to reduce the size of the section heads defaults so that it
is 12pt boldface (not 14pt)
I also need to have a dot "." after the section number
I need to also reduce to 12pt the "Referenced" header.
For figures, I need the "Figure x." to be in 10 pt helvetica boldface
with a dot "." not a colon (the default),
and the caption to be helvetica 10pt.
Same thing for tables.
I looked at the lyx tricks website but could not find such details.
thanks
Frederic

Re: Bibliography title formatting
This is how I would do it
Just before the place where the bibtex bibliography is placed put in ert
\renewcommand\bibname{\tiny Bibliography}
you can replace tiny with whatever latex you want to format the text

Re: Bibliography title formatting
Same sort of thing as what I suggested for the bibliography
but this time but instead of inserting list of Algorithms place in ert
\listof{algorithm}{\tiny List of What you want}
where \tiny can be replaced with whatever formating options you want.

Harvard referencing and pdflatex
I am using the harvard bibtex package. I would like to use PDFlatex to
produce the final pdf as it seems to do a better job then ps2pdf etc.
However pdflatex does not work when I use the harvard package. I can
view it in every other way but pdflatx just spits out errors like
command [EMAIL PROTECTED] already defined
command [EMAIL PROTECTED] already defined
command \harvardcite already defined
command \harvarditem already defined
This would suggest that \usepackage{harvard} was turning up twice in the
preamble. But if I delete it from the preamble then nothing will work
(pdf,ps,dvi,pdflatex). Exporting to latex then running it from the
command line does the same thing. Is this a know error of the package
harvard or pdflatex. It seems sort of ironic because from my little look
on the web it seemed that some one from Harvard wrote the pdflatex program.

Re: still not content with picture quality

Re: graphics in lyx
The way I do this is to include the options to not filter the image when converting to pdf In lyx under edit-preferences select the conversion then converters tab and then select Postscript -PDF then in the converter box where it says ps2pdf place the line ps2pdf -dAutoFilterGrayImages=false -dAutoFilterColorImages=false -dGrayImageFilter=/FlateEncode -dColorImageFilter=/FlateEncode $$i this will stop the filtering when you go File-export-PDF but not when you run pdf latex. (for some reason pdf latex does not work for me half the time something to do with harvard referencing) just not that the quality improvement comes at the cost of a BIG pdf file. cheers owen Tobias Kraus wrote: Hi!

Re: Changing Algorithm to Algoritmo
To change the algorithm header put
\floatname{algorithm}{What you want}
in the preamble this will change what it looks like (but probably not
when looking at lyx)
when you want to insert a list of algorithm in ERT put
\listof{algorithm}{List of What you want}
there is probably one \renewcommand that could be used to do both of
these in one step but I would have to go looking to find out what the
variable name is

The way I do this is to include the options to not filter the image when converting to pdf In lyx under edit->preferences select the conversion then converters tab and then select Postscript ->PDF then in the converter box where it says ps2pdf place the line "ps2pdf -dAutoFilterGrayImages=false -dAutoFilterColorImages=false -dGrayImageFilter=/FlateEncode -dColorImageFilter=/FlateEncode $$i" this will stop the filtering when you go File->export->PDF but not when you run pdf latex. (for some reason pdf latex does not work for me half the time something to do with harvard referencing) just not that the quality improvement comes at the cost of a BIG pdf file. cheers owen Tobias Kraus wrote: Hi! Is there a possibility to enhance the quality of graphics when exporting my lyx-document to pdf? When I export to html the qauality is much better but unfortunately the layout (borders, reference ...) suffers. Thanks alot, Tobi
Re: Changing Algorithm to Algoritmo
To change the algorithm header put
\floatname{algorithm}{What you want}
in the preamble this will change what it looks like (but probably not
when looking at lyx)
when you want to insert a list of algorithm in ERT put
\listof{algorithm}{List of What you want}
there is probably one \renewcommand that could be used to do both of
these in one step but I would have to go looking to find out what the
variable name is
cheers

Another question.
I'm working on a paper in spanish. I'm using babel so that it uses
Capítulo, Sección , etc. However when I use the float algorithm I get
Algorithm in english in the header. Is there a way to manually change
this to Algoritmo?

really stupid simple maths keyboard command question
When in maths mode you can press meta-m and it allows you to type in commands as shown in maths.bind. I can get the single character options to work but cant get the multiple ones to key in. in the file maths.bind these multi character commands start with. ~S- I assume that you need to press or hold a key down a key first. what is it? cheers owen
Re: really stupid simple maths keyboard command question
O wait I get it now when you go meta-m and it gived you options like slash it means / not slash.

Re: installing Bst files properly
I think that this depends on what bst you are using.
In the past I have put \usepackage [authoryear,round] {natbib} in my
preamble but there may be a better way to do it in new versions of lyx.
These days I use the harvard package which uses round as standard.
