LyX 2.2.2 on Mac Os 10.12

2016-10-16 Thread Dr Eberhard Lisse
Hi,

I have upgraded and when I now want to insert a Table of Content
Characters the first 7 lines (Math to Box) are greyed out. The same
document opened with 2.2.1 works as advertized.

Any idea why that could be?

Hi,

it looks like a problem with the build I didn’t notice.

Until a new package is available you has to use 2.2.1 instead.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi Mark,

Yes it is wrong. As I wrote in my first reply, the templates are called
"itemize item", "itemize subitem" and "itemize subsubitem" (not
"section subsection"). So:

\setbeamertemplate{itemize item}[triangle]

\setbeamertemplate{itemize subitem}[circle triangle]

etc. should do.

As mentioned in my original post, I want the bullets for the section, 
subsection and subsubsections to be all different from each other (each 
level should have its own bullet shape in the table of contents).  I 
tried to put in the Latex Preamble:



\setbeamertemplate{section subsection}[triangle]

or


\setbeamertemplate{section subsection}[circle triangle]

and

\setbeamertemplate{subsection}[triangle]

but evidently this syntax is wrong, since it did not work.


Thanks for the explanation about the Lyx behavior.

Yours,

Ehud

These settings are simply not compatible with beamer's interface, which
is very much specific. They should probably be greyed out (but then,
they work with beamer-article).

Re: LyX update loses settings.

2016-10-16 Thread Mark, K5AM


Hi Stephan,

Thank you for considering this problem.

I am using LyX Version 2.2.0. I am reluctant to update to
the new version, since it was so much trouble to redo the
settings last time.

Windows 7 Pro 64.

The settings I needed to redo:
Paths in Preferences
Location of pwl_english.dict
Some special keys that I set
Shortcut keys that I set
Colors
Other items that I may have forgotten,
but usually find out about soon enough.

Mark

If noone sees a solution for you at a glance, 
I recommend to simplify the preamble bit for bit and see which part
or package or function (or combination of these) creates the problem.

Then post a *minimal example* (leaving out everything that is not leading to
the problem).

Can anyone help?

You have to fiddle with the so-called beamer templates. E.g.

\setbeamertemplate{itemize subitem}[triangle]

or

\setbeamertemplate{itemize subitem}{--}

See the beamer manual, sec. 12.1, for details.

Re: Beamer/Lyx bullets

2016-10-16 Thread UD

Hi Jurgen,

I tried the ones that failed AFTER trying the ones you suggested, but 
all failed. I have put the statement in the Latex preamble under 
Document/settings.  I am not using itemize subitem explicitly anywhere 
here-- I am creating a table of contents with section, subsection, 
subsubsection-- Lyx is dong the rest.  I know it should be doable, since 
I have seen presentations with the correct appearance, but I do not have 
the Lyx/Latex source for those.


Thanks for your help,

Ehud Kaplan
