Re: lyx-2.3.0alpha1-1 crash

Hi Frederick,
I don't quite understand why you're using these low-level commands

in order for \newline to survive writing into the .toc file, you need to
protect it, thus
\protect\newline should work (not sure how well).

Adding to the previous answer: if there's no need to save the LMP in a

Here's the license info I found: License, which incorporates LaTeX Public License: https://www.fontsquirrel.com/license/TeX-Gyre-Schola LaTeX Public License: https://latex-project.org/lppl/lppl-1-3c.txt Regarding the LPL, I've been unable to find a legal definition of "Derived Work" that I could understand, so I don't know if my book, which I will sell as a PDF file, is "derived" from TeX-Gyre-Schola, or whether it simply includes a copy of TeX-Gyre-Schola. Also, it doesn't include ALL of TeX-Gyre-Schola, so I don't know whether *that's* violating the license. Anyone know whom I could ask regarding these things? Your work is not "Derived Work" as you're not distributing TeX-Steve-Schola (Steve, as in Steve Litt) as a new font derived from TeX-Gyre-Schola. Your work if in PDF (that is, computer) format is, at most, a "Compiled Work". Thus 3. You may distribute a Compiled Work that has been generated from a complete, unmodified copy of the Work as distributed under Clause 2 above, as long as that Compiled Work is distributed in such a way that the recipients may install the Compiled Work on their system exactly as it would have been installed if they generated a Compiled Work directly from the Work. Notice, this is *may*, not *must*. That means you don't have to distribute your work as a PDF file, but if you choose to, your work compiled with TeX-Gyre-Schola should contain the exact copy of TeX-Gyre-Schola, not some modified private version with the same name. If you print the book, you're in no way distributing the font itself (font is a computer program, right?), just its version compiled for 600dpi printer. In that sense: "Activities other than distribution and/or modification of the Work are not covered by this license; they are outside its scope. If unsure, you can ask the authors of the font for their explicit statement.

Re: REVTeX 4.1 Class Behavior Inquiry
1. The diamond/line separating the references from the remainder of the document spans both columns when I would expect it to span one. This seems to be true only for papers prepared for prl, not prb. 2. The "Electronic Addess" for the author appears in a footnote on the second (last?) page, not the first. I don't think this has anything to do with LyX, it's just how revtex class behaves. You can see many examples of it on arXiv. APS, if I remember correctly, uses some other software to produce printed papers.

Re: Math preview bug (?) in LyX 2.1.4
In addition to what Scott said: can you share the document that's causing you problems, I can test it on Fedora 23 in both LyX 2.1.4 and LyX 2.2.0dev for you. On 03/01/2016 04:18 AM, Alexander Stasinski wrote: (Apologies if this has already been discussed. I searched the archive and bug reports and did not find anything related. Perhaps I didn't search well enough.) I'm using LyX 2.1.4 on Fedora 22 (4.3.4-200.fc22.x86_64) with instant math preview on. After editing about a page of maths formulae, the instant preview will start displaying "random" previous formulae instead of the correct ones. When I go inside the formula, I can edit the correct one, so LyX has the correct one internally. The problem goes away if I close the document and reopen it, but after about another page or so of editing, the problem reoccurs. I'd be grateful for any advice on how to solve this.

ulem and amsmath
Hi Michael,
It took me a while to isolate the problem: it's displayed math in
Chapter03 that causes it. This turned out to be a bug in the package ulem:
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/125980/problem-with-amsmathfontspeculem
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/120024/pdflatex-hangs-with-no-errors
In short, the way ulem defines MakeRobust makes amsmath enter an
infinite loop.
There are a few fixes, I'll give you two:
- either call fixltx2e in classicthesis-config.tex before the call to
amsmath (CUT & PASTE ABOVE)
- or add te following to ClassicThesis.lyx (main document), Document
Settings > Local Layout
Provides ulem 1
AddToPreamble
\usepackage{ulem}
EndPreamble
(don't forget to Validate before pressing Apply)
to make sure ulem is loaded after amsmath.
Let me know if this worked.
LyX calls the two packages in the right order (intentionally or not).
Unfortunately, the LyX port of the classic thesis template is a bit
messy as the author of the latex template insisted on keeping many
unnecessary calls in classicthesis-config.tex
Re: anybody using classicthesis-LyX-v4.1 out there ?
First issue Underlining text with 'underbar' in the master document (e.g. _Siti)_ enters an endless loop when trying to compile to PDF with the fatal effects described above. Funny enough it compiled (sometimes?) before in a child document but did not when included in the master. And: I can stop the destruction of files only if I cut the power off immediately after the loop started! I see what you mean, and I can reproduce it. I haven't observed any files being deleted though. It will take some time to check all this, please be patient. There are many packages included with classic thesis template and one has to go removing them one by one until everything works again. Second issue Using Jürgen's nice and useful new modules like csquotes (context-sensitive quotes) fail to work in classicthesis-LyX-v4.1, i. e. are not available in full in the Insert > Custom Insets menu and produce quite a number of errors I unfortunately cannot even test this as I don't see the module in my modules list. But again, clashes are possible, not all (versions of) packages work well with one another. Now there is hope these problems may have been already resolved in the a bug-fix version of the v4.1 template in the 4.2 bundle which you told me. I will download the 4.2 version and then see to it. I don't think the above issues were addressed in 4.2. I'd rather try to remove (or comment out) calls to packages in classicthesis-config.tex and see if that helps. You can have the command "top" running in a terminal window. Once pdflatex enters the loop (CPU usage 100%), just kill it with a 'k'

Re: Bibliography does not print when using biblatex instead of bibtex
Hi Michael,
There's a lot going on in your example, but what's causing problems (if
everything else worked before) might be just that you haven't set the
path to your .bib file in the right way. Path names in Linux are case
sensitive (yours begins with /Home, which is almost always /home), and
there's probably user name missing (you have /Home/Documents, should
probably be /home/michael/Documents).
So please first check this. Use pwd terminal command in the directory
where your .bib file is, or check the path in the file browser (might
only show when you press CTRL-L)
If your .lyx and .bib files are in the same directory, I'd suggest using
this code in your preamble (just replace name_of_your_bib_file.bib)
\newcommand\mybibfile{name_of_your_bib_file.bib}
\ifcsname input@path\endcsname\else\def\input@path{{./}}\fi
\def\@@setabsolutebibname#1#2{\edef\@@absolutebibname{#1#2}}

KBibtex but may have to do with my settings.
See attached files. I left the basic structure intact as it might be
significant towards the problem and you can see all my settings .
The paper is using most of special elements needed and typical in
linguistics.
Hence, you probably have to install other package(s), e.g. covington.sty
Thanks and regards,

Yeah, but that's only for bibtex. Remember, we are only tricking LyX
into thinking that it should provide us with the citation dialog.
Use this instead of \printbibliography
\nocite{*}
\printbibliography[heading=bibintoc]
Re: Bibliography does not print when using biblatex instead of bibtex
Hi Michael,
There's a lot going on in your example, but what's causing problems (if
everything else worked before) might be just that you haven't set the
path to your .bib file in the right way. Path names in Linux are case
sensitive (yours begins with /Home, which is almost always /home), and
there's probably user name missing (you have /Home/Documents, should
probably be /home/michael/Documents).
So please first check this. Use "pwd" terminal command in the directory
where your .bib file is, or check the path in the file browser (might
only show when you press CTRL-L)
If your .lyx and .bib files are in the same directory, I'd suggest using
this code in your preamble (just replace name_of_your_bib_file.bib)
\newcommand\mybibfile{name_of_your_bib_file.bib}
\ifcsname input@path\endcsname\else\def\input@path{{./}}\fi
\def\@@setabsolutebibname#1#2{\edef\@@absolutebibname{#1#2}}
\expandafter\@@setabsolutebibname\input@path{\mybibfile}
\addbibresource{\@@absolutebibname}
instead of \addbibresource{/Home/Documents/Arbeiten
Mike/Hausarbeiten/MaHomex_Mike.bib}
This will make your project portable.
Good luck,
Pip

Re: Thesis formatting
Remember that the commands in LaTeX are just macros, they collect any
text and expand it where needed.
What you need is a command in the preamble of your LyX document of this
kind:
\degree{Master of Science\\ \vspace{\baselineskip} in\\
\vspace{\baselineskip} Nuclear Engineering}
As I said, commands containing a @ have only been made for internal
class use, they are not in user space.

Re: Thesis formatting
It's hard to guess what you're supposed to have without knowing anything about your latex class. What's obvious from the excerpt you've given is that \@degree is meant to be an internal command of the class (because of the @). There must be some part of the class file that fills the \@degree command with user's data. Where can we find the class file?
