So then what is the recommended PDF previewer for LyX on Windows 10


I use Sumatra PDF. LyX can be configured for it with synctex for forward
and backward search. https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/SyncTeX#toc2 That feature
is a huge help with the non WYSIWYG aspect of TeX.


The instructions on the wiki are admirably clear. Having followed them, 
I find, with LyX 2.2.2 and SumatraPDF v.3.1.2 64 bit, that the checkbox 
Synchronize with output in  Document>Settings>Output seems to have no 
effect, one way or the other. Forward and inverse search work 
irrespective of whether it is set or not.

  The KOMA-script English manual, in Sections 5.1.2 and 5.1.3, describe
running headers and footers and their formatting. What I do not see is how
to integrate text with LaTeX commands.

  For example, this compiles:
\ohead{\thepage}

but if I want to have the outerhead read
\ohead{Page \thepage of \lastpage}
there's an error. I've tried various modifications of this unsuccessfully.
I'd appreciate a pointer to a doc that tells me how to format this and how
to split a header so it covers two lines.

  Got it. Forgot to remove the fancyhdr package included in the preamble.
Removed that and it works.

Eberhard,

  Changed the class to Koma-Script article and both packages (scrheadings
and lastpage) are in the preamble. I set the page layout to 'plain.'

  When I try to preview the document (^x-p), an error box appears telling me
(twice) that cheader and cfooter are already defined in the document. If so
they are not visible or created by me.

  Any thoughts on what I've missed?

controlling the space in itemize lists

2016-10-24 Thread UD 
Since it seems that /enumitem/ is incompatible with Beamer, (how) can I 
control the vertical spacing in itemized lists in Beamer/Lyx?


Thanks

Eberhard,

  Yesterday I started a template using KOMA-Script Report; using the article
class does make more sense. I'll read about scrheadings in the class manual.

I then used pdfpages to import my (Eurpoass CV) without footers so the "Page 
# of # pages" works :-)-O


  That's a thought. I was going to use pdftk to concatenate the two, but
that has them paginated separately.


The Preamble is your friend :-)-O


  Yep.

Thanks very much for the ideas,

Rich
