Re: Spanish accents and ispell

Here it is called espan_ol.hash, but I think the original name was espan~ol.hash, and there is a link from spanish.hash towards espan_ol.hash to get it with the spanish babel option and « use languuage of document » option of the spellchecker. Don't remember wher it came from, but I can check if you don't find it. -- Jean-Pierre

Till now I run into troubles that the text is format somewhat curiouly that means there are lots of unwanted spaces, as I've noticed before ! The adjustements in Lyx 1.1.4 were: documentclass: book coma script indent-format: left, no indents page-format: headings code: latin 1 indent-seperation: vertical distance There are 2 ways to have 1 paragraph for 1 cell (that's what you want to do so that the text breaks on cell boundaries automatically). 1. You let LaTeX do it as it wants and this is not left-aligned but it is "block" aligned, therefore the spaces you don't want! 2. You do it with the Linebreaks mechanism. This puts a \parbox in the cell and also puts \\ (linebreaks after each line) this gives you a left aligned paragraph wich breaks lines where you broke them in the cell (but attention it also breaks line if you have too long text in one row!) For 1. there is nothing to tell about it works as it is intended to work. For 2. you have to pay attention that in one tabular-row you have the same amount of virtual rows so you have to put at least a Ctrl-space as one char in EACH virtual row so that all has the same hight as otherwise the parbox centers vertically in the cell! Hope this helps you to understand better what's going on. But as we already told you it is VERY hard to help you concretely if we don't see what is bothering you, it's different to see a situation and to hear from one.

Slides
This is pretty a tex question, but maybe some of you know the answer. There's a problem when you print slides with very colourful images: when you see it on the machine (I don't know the name...) you see it very dark, I mean there's too much ink on it. There should be a way to print with maybe less quality, but with a thiner layer of colour ink and so a better result on the slide. It should exist on Windows. Anyone knows something? Thanks, Stefano

Re: control-x and control-v crash
No, this is a bug that has been fixed the day after 1.1.5pre1 has been released :( version 1.1.5pre2 should be out really soon now (should have been on friday). I just wondered whether it is really such a good idea to have all those pre and fix versions around. If we use the 'stable/development' distinction we'd could use the even/odd scheme as well, if we don't we could use consecutive numbers... I personally don't mind having a 1.1.65. At least I know that known problems from 1.1.47 might be fixed in there whereas the relation of 1.1.4fix7 and 1.1.5pre2 is not immediately clear.

If we use the Andre 'stable/development' distinction we'd could use the even/odd Andre scheme as well, if we don't we could use consecutive numbers... Andre I personally don't mind having a 1.1.65. The problem with 'stable/development' is that the two branches diverge too fast and, not being the linux-kernel, we do not have the manpower to keep them in sync. You know we just tried that for a year or so, and after that the development branch just had to be abandonned. Andre At least I know that Andre known problems from 1.1.47 might be fixed in there whereas the Andre relation of 1.1.4fix7 and 1.1.5pre2 is not immediately clear. I'd be interested to get feedback on whether the current versioning system is confusing. Currently the scheme is as follows: - 1.1.4 is a stable release. As soon as it is released, developpers go back at development work on cvs. - of course, during the development work, bug are found or reported by users. If their fix is simple enough (as often, since they are due to bad coding), it is accumulated in a patch by yours truly. When enough important fixes have accumulated, I released 1.1.4fix1, which is a patch against the plain 1.1.4. Other incremental patches have been released later. - when enough work has been done on on the development front, 1.1.5pre1 is released, in order to give a glimpse to what 1.1.5 will be. Normally, after one or two prereleases, the actual 1.1.5 release happens. Of course, this scheme means that no new feature is added to 1.1.4 in the "fix" series (that's what they are: just boring bug fixes). So, are there other people who think that this is confusing? JMarc PS: the next preversion of LyX 1.1.5, which should have appeared last friday, will have to wait a bit, since Lars is in vacation...

Only a paragraph following another paragraph gets indented. Take a close look at some books if you don't believe me.

A few [more] questions and a bug report
Hi all, First of all, thanks to everyone who replied to my prev mail; your help is much appreaciated :-) Some more questions: 1. Herbert Voss told me how to increase the space within footnotes, but how can I increase the space between the first footnote and the 'regular' text in the page? I'd like to have at least one blank line between the two. 2. More about images. I have three images which show the evolution of packets through a computer network in a given protocol, and I'd like the three images to be side-by-side, that is, in a row. I tried to use the 'subimage' option in the image dialog, but they images always appear one below the other (in a column). As I couldn't see how to change this, I did the following: inserted a (1x3) table in the float, removed the lines, then put an image in each cell of the table. This was fine, except for the fact that the three images have slightly different heights, so they are not well aligned (they always appear aligned to the bottom of the table). Any chance to: a) Use subimages but have them side-by-side, or b) Keep the images in the table but have each of them vertically centerd in its cell ? That's all, I guess. A small bug report (this is for lyx-1.1.4, so it might have been fixed since): if I select 'Insert label' and then hit ESC to cancel the dialog, LyX goes away (without saving the changes in the doc or anything). Thanks all, G. -- Guillermo Rodriguez Garcia [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Till now I run into troubles that the text is format somewhat curiouly that means there are lots of unwanted spaces, as I've noticed before ! The adjustements in Lyx 1.1.4 were: documentclass: book coma script indent-format: left, no indents page-format: headings code: latin 1 indent-seperation: vertical distance There are 2 ways to have 1 paragraph for 1 cell (that's what you want to do so that the text breaks on cell boundaries automatically). 1. You let LaTeX do it as it wants and this is not left-aligned but it is "block" aligned, therefore the spaces you don't want! 2. You do it with the Linebreaks mechanism. This puts a \parbox in the cell and also puts \\ (linebreaks after each line) this gives you a left aligned paragraph wich breaks lines where you broke them in the cell (but attention it also breaks line if you have too long text in one row!) For 1. there is nothing to tell about it works as it is intended to work. For 2. you have to pay attention that in one tabular-row you have the same amount of virtual rows so you have to put at least a Ctrl-space as one char in EACH virtual row so that all has the same hight as otherwise the parbox centers vertically in the cell! Hope this helps you to understand better what's going on. But as we already told you it is VERY hard to help you concretely if we don't see what is bothering you, it's different to see a situation and to hear from one.

Slides
This is pretty a tex question, but maybe some of you know the answer. There's a problem when you print slides with very colourful images: when you see it on the machine (I don't know the name...) you see it very dark, I mean there's too much ink on it. There should be a way to print with maybe less quality, but with a thiner layer of colour ink and so a better result on the slide. It should exist on Windows. Anyone knows something? Thanks, Stefano

No, this is a bug that has been fixed the day after 1.1.5pre1 has been released :( version 1.1.5pre2 should be out really soon now (should have been on friday). I just wondered whether it is really such a good idea to have all those pre and fix versions around. If we use the 'stable/development' distinction we'd could use the even/odd scheme as well, if we don't we could use consecutive numbers... I personally don't mind having a 1.1.65. At least I know that known problems from 1.1.47 might be fixed in there whereas the relation of 1.1.4fix7 and 1.1.5pre2 is not immediately clear.

The differences Ramon are: - fonts are "thicker"; - fonts are compressed vertically Did you try to choose a correct metafont mode for your printer?

Versioning (was: control-x and control-v crash)

If we use the Andre 'stable/development' distinction we'd could use the even/odd Andre scheme as well, if we don't we could use consecutive numbers... Andre I personally don't mind having a 1.1.65. The problem with 'stable/development' is that the two branches diverge too fast and, not being the linux-kernel, we do not have the manpower to keep them in sync. You know we just tried that for a year or so, and after that the development branch just had to be abandonned. Andre At least I know that Andre known problems from 1.1.47 might be fixed in there whereas the Andre relation of 1.1.4fix7 and 1.1.5pre2 is not immediately clear. I'd be interested to get feedback on whether the current versioning system is confusing. Currently the scheme is as follows: - 1.1.4 is a stable release. As soon as it is released, developpers go back at development work on cvs. - of course, during the development work, bug are found or reported by users. If their fix is simple enough (as often, since they are due to bad coding), it is accumulated in a patch by yours truly. When enough important fixes have accumulated, I released 1.1.4fix1, which is a patch against the plain 1.1.4. Other incremental patches have been released later. - when enough work has been done on on the development front, 1.1.5pre1 is released, in order to give a glimpse to what 1.1.5 will be. Normally, after one or two prereleases, the actual 1.1.5 release happens. Of course, this scheme means that no new feature is added to 1.1.4 in the "fix" series (that's what they are: just boring bug fixes). So, are there other people who think that this is confusing?

A few [more] questions and a bug report
Hi all, First of all, thanks to everyone who replied to my prev mail; your help is much appreaciated :-) Some more questions: 1. Herbert Voss told me how to increase the space within footnotes, but how can I increase the space between the first footnote and the 'regular' text in the page? I'd like to have at least one blank line between the two. 2. More about images. I have three images which show the evolution of packets through a computer network in a given protocol, and I'd like the three images to be side-by-side, that is, in a row. I tried to use the 'subimage' option in the image dialog, but they images always appear one below the other (in a column). As I couldn't see how to change this, I did the following: inserted a (1x3) table in the float, removed the lines, then put an image in each cell of the table. This was fine, except for the fact that the three images have slightly different heights, so they are not well aligned (they always appear aligned to the bottom of the table). Any chance to: a) Use subimages but have them side-by-side, or b) Keep the images in the table but have each of them vertically centerd in its cell ? That's all, I guess. A small bug report (this is for lyx-1.1.4, so it might have been fixed since): if I select 'Insert label' and then hit ESC to cancel the dialog, LyX goes away (without saving the changes in the doc or anything).

You let LaTeX do it as it wants and this is not left-aligned but it is "block" aligned, therefore the spaces you don't want! 2. You do it with the Linebreaks mechanism. This puts a \parbox in the cell and also puts \\ (linebreaks after each line) this gives you a left aligned paragraph wich breaks lines where you broke them in the cell (but attention it also breaks line if you have too long text in one row!) For 1. there is nothing to tell about it works as it is intended to work. For 2. you have to pay attention that in one tabular-row you have the same amount of virtual rows so you have to put at least a Ctrl-space as one char in EACH virtual row so that all has the same hight as otherwise the parbox centers vertically in the cell! Hope this helps you to understand better what's going on. But as we already told you it is VERY hard to help you concretely if we don't see what is bothering you, it's different to see a situation and to hear from one.

Slides
This is pretty a tex question, but maybe some of you know the answer. There's a problem when you print slides with very colourful images: when you see it on the machine (I don't know the name...) you see it very dark, I mean there's too much ink on it. There should be a way to print with maybe less quality, but with a thiner layer of colour ink and so a better result on the slide. It should exist on Windows. Anyone knows something? Thanks, Stefano

I just wondered whether it is really such a good idea to have all those pre and fix versions around. If we use the 'stable/development' distinction we'd could use the even/odd scheme as well, if we don't we could use consecutive numbers... I personally don't mind having a 1.1.65.

I'd be interested to get feedback on whether the current versioning system is confusing. Currently the scheme is as follows: - 1.1.4 is a stable release. As soon as it is released, developpers go back at development work on cvs. - of course, during the development work, bug are found or reported by users. If their fix is simple enough (as often, since they are due to bad coding), it is accumulated in a patch by yours truly. When enough important fixes have accumulated, I released 1.1.4fix1, which is a patch against the plain 1.1.4. Other incremental patches have been released later. - when enough work has been done on on the development front, 1.1.5pre1 is released, in order to give a glimpse to what 1.1.5 will be. Normally, after one or two prereleases, the actual 1.1.5 release happens. Of course, this scheme means that no new feature is added to 1.1.4 in the "fix" series (that's what they are: just boring bug fixes). So, are there other people who think that this is confusing?

Umm, Lyx is only following standard typographic convention -- The *first* paragraph of a section, or after a figure, an equation, a table, a list, etc., is *not* indented. Only a paragraph following another paragraph gets indented. Take a close look at some books if you don't believe me. As far as I can tell, only in the US do people indent the first paragraph in a section, and even here, only those with no typographic or publishing experience.

No PostScript-Output
Hi, my table is growing, but too also problems. If I'm starting "gv" it seems to everything allright. The message will be executed and dvips -o and so on apears, but nothing happens !

A few [more] questions and a bug report
Hi all, First of all, thanks to everyone who replied to my prev mail; your help is much appreaciated :-) Some more questions: 1. Herbert Voss told me how to increase the space within footnotes, but how can I increase the space between the first footnote and the 'regular' text in the page? I'd like to have at least one blank line between the two. 2. More about images. I have three images which show the evolution of packets through a computer network in a given protocol, and I'd like the three images to be side-by-side, that is, in a row. I tried to use the 'subimage' option in the image dialog, but they images always appear one below the other (in a column). As I couldn't see how to change this, I did the following: inserted a (1x3) table in the float, removed the lines, then put an image in each cell of the table. This was fine, except for the fact that the three images have slightly different heights, so they are not well aligned (they always appear aligned to the bottom of the table). Any chance to: a) Use subimages but have them side-by-side, or b) Keep the images in the table but have each of them vertically centerd in its cell ? That's all, I guess. A small bug report (this is for lyx-1.1.4, so it might have been fixed since): if I select 'Insert label' and then hit ESC to cancel the dialog, LyX goes away (without saving the changes in the doc or anything). Thanks all, G. -- Guillermo Rodriguez Garcia <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
