Dear LyXers, after using LyX now for over a decade (thanks to the developers, great job!), I recently ran into a slight problem where I haven't been able yet to figure out what the cause could be. I'm currently writing an assignment and need to cite literature. For doing so I use biblatex and biber as backend - works fine. However when I want to adjust the form of the citation (as it can be achieved when selecting the style pre-defined in the bib entry mask), the form I need is not available. In general this is no problem, since once can adjust this with either of the following commands:
\bibpunct{(}{)}{,}{a}{ }{,}
\setcitestyle{aysep={ }}
The style I need is without a comma after the author and the year in
brackets, e.g. Miller (2013), S. 145
In the PDF with the selected style from the bib entry menu (which I
think should use this style), it is displayed as Miller, (2013, S. 145)
After looking through the web, the solutions I found suggest, that you
just put one of the two mentioned commands in your preamble. However by
doing so, I get an error when I try to compile the doc. It says: " \bibpunct
{(}{)}{a}{,}{,}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined."
So, what could this be? When I try to use the \usepackage{natbib} in the
preamble, I get also an error, that natbib is already in use - which is
logical, since it is activated in the settings.
I'm using XeTeX for compiling, LyX 2.1.4 and TeXlive 2015 - running on
Linux Mint
Attached is a small example with my current settings.
Would be great if someone could point me on something I'm missing.
