 I have looked in several places on how to do this...I hope that I can explain

 I am using Lyx to make slides (for the first time...now that I have my first
 successful paper completed with it!) for a talk, and I would like to put a
 couple of logos in the upper right and left hand corners of each of the
 pages.  These images are about 1.5x1.5 inches in size.  The problem that I
 have is that I don't know how to PLACE the images into those areas.  Do I
 need to do this in a separate program (ie. make a header) and then bring it
 into Lyx?  It seems that Lyx should be capable of doing this with just the
 separate images.

have a look at

for different possibilities.

semi-automatic generated MP3 playlist using LyX

[T.Hartkens]

Hi LyX enthusiasts!

The program
 
  mp3tolatex
 
scans a CD for MP3 files and generates a playlist which fits
in a CD case. The ouput file is written in the LyX file format.
 
download  info:
http://www.hartkens.de/thomas/ftp/mp3tolatex/index.html
 
 
The program mp3tolatex  generates automatically a draft proposal
of a play list on the basis of the mp3 tags. The output file can
be manually edited to complete or correct the song informations. Two
file formats are supported: the output file is either a LaTeX file or
a proper LyX file which can be loaded into the LaTeX front-end LyX
Because LyX offers a user-friendly interface for the semi-automatic
approach of mp3tolatex, the second file format is recommended.
 
Best wishes,
 
Thomas

Re: Quality problems with PDF windows

Maybe an obvious suggestion, but have you made sure you have antialiasing 
turned on?

PDF documents tend to look a bit yucky whatever viewer you're using (although 
the printout quality is only marginally below that of PostScript).  Given 
that you have Ghostscript in Windows, why not export as PostScript rather 
than PDF?

How to handle multiple page algorithms?

[Steffen Seufert]

Hi,

I'm trying to layout algorithms with a length of multiple pages.

I used algorithmic-floats for short algorithms,
so I want to continue the same style for the long ones.

Here's the problem:

If I use a long algorithm in an algorithmic-float it will
be layouted on one page cutting of the other pages.

If I use the algorithmic-environment without putting it
into a float there's no headline and these nice 
surrunding lines anymore.

So how can I produce the float-style for an algorithm
even when not defining itself as a float?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Ciao,
Steffen

P.S. I'm using the style "algo-0.3" for typsetting algorithms
in lyx.

use package nonfloat or write your own algorithm-environment.

\flushleft AND hyphenation possible together?

[Kaspar Pflugshaupt]

Hello,

I've tried a few things, but didn't get this to work: 

Can I have left-justified text _with_ hyphenation in Lyx? It would be cool 
e.g. for narrow table cells, where I'd like long words to be hyphenated, but 
margins not justified (due to "holes"). At the moment, I'm putting the 
hyphens in manually.

Does anybody have an idea?

Tried it. It works, too. Thanks a lot! It works on any text, though. Ideally, 
I'd like to have something that I can turn on and off within my document.

I've done some searching, meanwhile, and have come across a LaTeX package 
called "raggedright" that claims to offer this. It defines a new environment 
called FlushLeft that has hyphenation, and the "roughness" of the border can 
be adjusted via variables.
 
It was written for LaTeX 2.09, though. I'll see if I can make it work.

Labels and short captions

[Martin Adorni]

Hi LyXers,

I have a table with a long caption. Because I wanted a shorter caption
in the List of Tables I decided replace the caption style by:

\caption[shortcaption]{longcaption} In ERT using the LyX-Code layout.

Thereafter I added a label. But when I try to reference to the label I
get the section number (i.e. 3.4.1). I tried to put the label at
different places within the caption to get the right numbering but I
failed. I can't use the caption environment because then Table appears
twice.

Any suggestions (with preferably simple solutions)?

Thanks
Martin

Problem: displaystyle into a math mode

[Juan Ramon Rico]

Hi evarybody:


If I use a TeX mode into a equation (math-mode) in lyx1.1.6fix1
I write displaystyle into an equation and DVI show formula ok
but if you save the kk.lyx file and close lyx.

Next time you load equation (kk.lyx) the
command displaystyle is desappeared but
if you read kk.lyx with a text editor \displaystyle is there.

If you want to print the documente syou should rewrite all
equations again.

Is It possible to save the lyx file and the displaystyle command
appear when you load the same file?.

There is a little sample as attachment, called kk.lyx

Thanks.

LyX under WIN98

[Robert Braun]

Hi,

i've a problem and can't solve it but hopefully you.

- i work with lyx 1.1.6win32 under Windows98.
- i have a bibliography-tool tkbibtex
- to use these tool in LyX i have to set in the lyxrc-file the line:

\serverpipe "c:/.lyxpipe"

but this doesn't work!!!

- the path in tkbibtex (that means in my tkbibtex.tcl) i've set:

set lyxpipe c:/.lyxpipe

this functioned well, because if i want to push a item from tkbibtex to LyX
it calls me, that it have not found  c:/.lyxpipe.*

LyX seems to ignore my entry in the lyxrc file. what should i do? i know
from an friend that he have the same problem.

much thanks for an answer in forward

 I have looked in several places on how to do this...I hope that I can explain

 I am using Lyx to make slides (for the first time...now that I have my first
 successful paper completed with it!) for a talk, and I would like to put a
 couple of logos in the upper right and left hand corners of each of the
 pages.  These images are about 1.5x1.5 inches in size.  The problem that I
 have is that I don't know how to PLACE the images into those areas.  Do I
 need to do this in a separate program (ie. make a header) and then bring it
 into Lyx?  It seems that Lyx should be capable of doing this with just the
 separate images.

have a look at

semi-automatic generated MP3 playlist using LyX

[T.Hartkens]

Hi LyX enthusiasts!

The program
 
  mp3tolatex
 
scans a CD for MP3 files and generates a playlist which fits
in a CD case. The ouput file is written in the LyX file format.
 
download  info:
http://www.hartkens.de/thomas/ftp/mp3tolatex/index.html
 
 
The program mp3tolatex  generates automatically a draft proposal
of a play list on the basis of the mp3 tags. The output file can
be manually edited to complete or correct the song informations. Two
file formats are supported: the output file is either a LaTeX file or
a proper LyX file which can be loaded into the LaTeX front-end LyX
Because LyX offers a user-friendly interface for the semi-automatic
approach of mp3tolatex, the second file format is recommended.
 
Best wishes,
 
Thomas

Maybe an obvious suggestion, but have you made sure you have antialiasing 
turned on?

PDF documents tend to look a bit yucky whatever viewer you're using (although 
the printout quality is only marginally below that of PostScript).  Given 
that you have Ghostscript in Windows, why not export as PostScript rather

How to handle multiple page algorithms?

[Steffen Seufert]

Hi,

I'm trying to layout algorithms with a length of multiple pages.

I used algorithmic-floats for short algorithms,
so I want to continue the same style for the long ones.

Here's the problem:

If I use a long algorithm in an algorithmic-float it will
be layouted on one page cutting of the other pages.

If I use the algorithmic-environment without putting it
into a float there's no headline and these nice 
surrunding lines anymore.

So how can I produce the float-style for an algorithm
even when not defining itself as a float?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Ciao,
Steffen

P.S. I'm using the style "algo-0.3" for typsetting algorithms
in lyx.

use package nonfloat or write your own algorithm-environment.

\flushleft AND hyphenation possible together?

[Kaspar Pflugshaupt]

Hello,

I've tried a few things, but didn't get this to work: 

Can I have left-justified text _with_ hyphenation in Lyx? It would be cool 
e.g. for narrow table cells, where I'd like long words to be hyphenated, but 
margins not justified (due to "holes"). At the moment, I'm putting the 
hyphens in manually.

Does anybody have an idea?

Tried it. It works, too. Thanks a lot! It works on any text, though. Ideally, 
I'd like to have something that I can turn on and off within my document.

I've done some searching, meanwhile, and have come across a LaTeX package 
called "raggedright" that claims to offer this. It defines a new environment 
called FlushLeft that has hyphenation, and the "roughness" of the border can 
be adjusted via variables.
 
It was written for LaTeX 2.09, though. I'll see if I can make it work.

Labels and short captions

[Martin Adorni]

Hi LyXers,

I have a table with a long caption. Because I wanted a shorter caption
in the List of Tables I decided replace the caption style by:

\caption[shortcaption]{longcaption} In ERT using the LyX-Code layout.

Thereafter I added a label. But when I try to reference to the label I
get the section number (i.e. 3.4.1). I tried to put the label at
different places within the caption to get the right numbering but I
failed. I can't use the caption environment because then Table appears
twice.

Any suggestions (with preferably simple solutions)?

Thanks
Martin

Problem: displaystyle into a math mode

[Juan Ramon Rico]

Hi evarybody:


If I use a TeX mode into a equation (math-mode) in lyx1.1.6fix1
I write displaystyle into an equation and DVI show formula ok
but if you save the kk.lyx file and close lyx.

Next time you load equation (kk.lyx) the
command displaystyle is desappeared but
if you read kk.lyx with a text editor \displaystyle is there.

If you want to print the documente syou should rewrite all
equations again.

Is It possible to save the lyx file and the displaystyle command
appear when you load the same file?.

There is a little sample as attachment, called kk.lyx

Thanks.

LyX under WIN98

[Robert Braun]

Hi,

i've a problem and can't solve it but hopefully you.

- i work with lyx 1.1.6win32 under Windows98.
- i have a bibliography-tool tkbibtex
- to use these tool in LyX i have to set in the lyxrc-file the line:

\serverpipe "c:/.lyxpipe"

but this doesn't work!!!

- the path in tkbibtex (that means in my tkbibtex.tcl) i've set:

set lyxpipe c:/.lyxpipe

this functioned well, because if i want to push a item from tkbibtex to LyX
it calls me, that it have not found  c:/.lyxpipe.*

LyX seems to ignore my entry in the lyxrc file. what should i do? i know
from an friend that he have the same problem.

much thanks for an answer in forward

have a look at

semi-automatic generated MP3 playlist using LyX

[T.Hartkens]

Hi LyX enthusiasts!

The program
 
  mp3tolatex
 
scans a CD for MP3 files and generates a playlist which fits
in a CD case. The ouput file is written in the LyX file format.
 
download & info:
http://www.hartkens.de/thomas/ftp/mp3tolatex/index.html
 
 
The program mp3tolatex  generates automatically a draft proposal
of a play list on the basis of the mp3 tags. The output file can
be manually edited to complete or correct the song informations. Two
file formats are supported: the output file is either a LaTeX file or
a proper LyX file which can be loaded into the LaTeX front-end LyX
Because LyX offers a user-friendly interface for the semi-automatic
approach of mp3tolatex, the second file format is recommended.
 
Best wishes,
 
Thomas

Maybe an obvious suggestion, but have you made sure you have antialiasing 
turned on?

PDF documents tend to look a bit yucky whatever viewer you're using (although 
the printout quality is only marginally below that of PostScript).  Given 
that you have Ghostscript in Windows, why not export as PostScript rather 
than PDF?

pretty-printing C/C++ code

[Emanuele Olivetti]

Hi,
is there an easy way to pretty-print source code (C/C++ or other) using lyx (or
latex) ? I mean different font for keywords, comments, preprocessor commands,
etc.


Thanks in advance,

Emanuele

Quick BibTeX question...

How can I print a ~ (tilde) in an article title? I don't want to put the

its own. Any ideas?

Thanks everyone!

Strange - mine surely has abstract available (but it is down on the list).
Maybe this is an installation problem? Somebody else may be able to help.
Mine is lyx on linux installed from debian/potato packages.

How to handle multiple page algorithms?

[Steffen Seufert]

Hi,

I'm trying to layout algorithms with a length of multiple pages.

I used algorithmic-floats for short algorithms,
so I want to continue the same style for the long ones.

Here's the problem:

If I use a long algorithm in an algorithmic-float it will
be layouted on one page cutting of the other pages.

If I use the algorithmic-environment without putting it
into a float there's no headline and these nice 
surrunding lines anymore.

So how can I produce the float-style for an algorithm
even when not defining itself as a float?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Ciao,
Steffen

P.S. I'm using the style "algo-0.3" for typsetting algorithms
in lyx.

Yes, you can download Aladdin Ghostscript and Ghostview for free.  Can't 
remember the site, but it should show up easily on any Internet search.

floats with more than one page are not possible.

use package nonfloat or write your own algorithm-environment.
i did this for long tables, have a look at

\flushleft AND hyphenation possible together?

[Kaspar Pflugshaupt]

Hello,

I've tried a few things, but didn't get this to work: 

Can I have left-justified text _with_ hyphenation in Lyx? It would be cool 
e.g. for narrow table cells, where I'd like long words to be hyphenated, but 
margins not justified (due to "holes"). At the moment, I'm putting the 
hyphens in manually.

Does anybody have an idea?
