Hi all,
Can someone show me how I can update text using Lyx or Tex code?
Basically, what I want is similar to the Bookmark + cross reference
features in MS Word. For example, I create a bookmark with text
"update me". Then I create a cross reference somewhere else in the
document. The cross reference also shows "update me". When I change
the bookmark text to "you are updated" and select to update the whole
document, the cross referenced text now shows "you are updated".
Just put a label: Insert>Label, with whatever text you want. Then put a
cross reference to the label where you want. Change the label and the
cross-ref will change, too, automatically, though of course all the
labels have to have different names.
If you don't want the label to show in output, just put it in a note
(Insert>Note>LyX Note). You can put the label in a note, too, if you
really don't want it to be output.
