Fixing Figures

Hi All,

Just a quick query ... how can I force LyX
to place a float figure where I want it in 
the flow of piece of writing? If I have
say a section MY SECTION and I want a figure
directly after the section heading, how can
I do that? I hope I make myself clear.

 If you occationally use unusual characters, but not often enough to

 Microsoft word have a screen where special characters can be selected

 Creating this document is hard but a one-time job, perhaps you can
 paste from emails or documents written in other ways.

I'm not a developer, so I'm not sure, but would expect features wlike this
will need to wait for 1.3. 1.2 is basically a nicer version of 1.* Graphics
import, for example, is much better.  The .lyx file format has been improved
as well.

   Here's what I have done: upon downloading covington.sty, I moved it to

Check the developers page at www.lyx.org  Last time I looked, no definite
release date, but of course you can always get the latest snapshot via CVS if
you can be bothered with things like that.  There are also some RPMs available
at ftp.sylvan.com , if I remember rightly.

I'm not a developer, so I'm not sure, but would expect features wlike this
will need to wait for 1.3. 1.2 is basically a nicer version of 1.* Graphics
import, for example, is much better.  The .lyx file format has been improved
as well.

It varies.  Development is generally pretty fast, though.

Put \pagestyle{empty} before the abstract (in latex mode)
and \pagestyle{plain} at the 3rd page.

LyX and vnc

2002-01-05 Thread Kent Kostuk

I was trying to use VNC (www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/) along with LyX so I can run LyX 
from my win95 pc. When I try to start up LyX I get the following error:

In flvisual.c[217] Can't find an appropriate visual.

Has anyone out there tried this combination? Will LyX and VNC work together?


Thanks

Kent Kostuk

Run your vnc server with at least a depth of 16. I have seen this before,
yes.

I regularly run(k)lyx ( I am using Caldera e2.4) over VNC at my NT
box. It works quite well. I am not a system admin, but it sounds like it
is on the VNC/graphics exporting side.
