RevTex errors out of the box
Greetings,
I'm at a dead point using LyX with the RevTex template.
(just installed last fix release)-
Starting out with New-from template-RevTex4, I get an almost empty doc.
Fine, I try to compile it already, and get 4 merror messages, on the line:
... you can cite references with the LyX [Error]Error]Error]Error]citation
commands...
Error1: TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [input stack size=300] citation commands
\cite{mycitation}. If you really absolutely need more capacity you can ask a
wizard to enlarge me.
Error2: Undefined control sequence \cite{mycitation}.
and so on, all presumably triggered by 1st error.
Deleting the citation solves the problem, but I'm not supposed to write a
scientific article without citations (bad move ;-)
RevTeX template performs even worse, with 22 (!) errors on 1st line, the
first being Undef. control sequence
\bbl@redefine\LaTeX{\textlatin{\org@LaTeX }}, and I spare the other errors
for a rainy day.
Some idea/advice?
Thanks

make your own titlepage with different character-sizes
Did this, it's fine now.
The problem was that the Title was so long that it spanned two lines and
when I used Large style without \maketitle, the line spacing was far too
small (which it wasn't with the \maketitle). However, I read about
setspace package and \doublespace and with it it's perfect.

long table footnotes problem (1.1.6fix3)
Hi, I have a file written with 1.1.5fix2 which contains some long-tables. Many of rows contain footnotes. I used ctrl-enter to place linebreaks, so that the table fits to the screen (in lyx window), but new lyx (1.1.6fix3) ignores them. All cells are made one-row. Then the table does not fit to the screen when in lyx window (the .dvi and .ps output is fine, of course) so I have a lot of troubles trying to edit these tables. Any hints ? Thanks in advance, Jacek.

\sectionfont{\centering\large\bfseries\uppercase}
Don't put \pagebreak in there. Either modify the layout file, or just insert
it after the section command in your document.
Ok, it was \pagebreak which made \uppercase not to work in this case. So
it seems I have two possibilities:
- Write it in uppercase manually, and let \pagebreak happen
automatically before the highest-level section headers, or vice versa,
- Let \uppercase happen automatically and insert manually pagebreaks.
Or I could just modify Layout file... possible, but I'd rather avoid this.
Also, in your example, I think you want \bfseries rather than simply \bf.
Probably. I don't know.
http://www.maths.bris.ac.uk/dept/Texhtml/ltx-2.html
doesn't have \bfseries in the list and I don't know what's the difference.
In the preview I don't see any difference.

I know, but it's better to write it in more than one line,

latex sometimes don't allow a linebreak in the commands
and the % ignores following chars and the linebreak

files not updating
Hi lyx-gurus, I am using lyx-1.1.6-3mdk.rpm on MD8.0 and having trouble with viewing dvi or ps. If I am editing a file called gradint.lyx, when I first run view-postscript or view-dvi all is well. When I edit and run again nothing has changed, even though the buffer shows the change the viewers seem to pick up on a multitude of files which are generated instead. Here is a list of the files: gradint.aux gradint.dvi gradint.log gradint.ps gradint.tex gradint.tex.dep If I delete these then the update or view is OK. I cannot find how to stop these backups or mid-conversion files from being produced (if I save the file and then select file-revert to saved then it updates, though this seems a bit extreme!). I hope someone is able to help, Cheers - AP

Re: formatting my thesis
% makes a comment.
Diff between \bf and \bfseries:
\bf 'toggles' bold, until such time as you issue, say, \rm.
\bfseries scopes over bracketed text only.

Don't put \pagebreak in there. Either modify the layout file, or just insert

Ok, it was \pagebreak which made \uppercase not to work in this case. So
it seems I have two possibilities:
- Write it in uppercase manually, and let \pagebreak happen
automatically before the highest-level section headers, or vice versa,
- Let \uppercase happen automatically and insert manually pagebreaks.
Or I could just modify Layout file... possible, but I'd rather avoid this.

files not updating
Hi lyx-gurus, I am using lyx-1.1.6-3mdk.rpm on MD8.0 and having trouble with viewing dvi or ps. If I am editing a file called gradint.lyx, when I first run view-postscript or view-dvi all is well. When I edit and run again nothing has changed, even though the buffer shows the change the viewers seem to pick up on a multitude of files which are generated instead. Here is a list of the files: gradint.aux gradint.dvi gradint.log gradint.ps gradint.tex gradint.tex.dep If I delete these then the update or view is OK. I cannot find how to stop these backups or mid-conversion files from being produced (if I save the file and then select file-revert to saved then it updates, though this seems a bit extreme!).

A better solution if you use NSDAP several times in your document, is to put
\hyphenation{NSDAP} in the preamble (and you don't need to put \mbox).
lyx1.1.6fix3 and conversion to dvi

RevTex errors out of the box
Greetings,
I'm at a dead point using LyX with the RevTex template.
(just installed last fix release)-
Starting out with New->from template->RevTex4, I get an almost empty doc.
Fine, I try to compile it already, and get 4 merror messages, on the line:
"... you can cite references with the LyX [Error]Error]Error]Error]citation
commands..."
Error1: TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [input stack size=300] citation commands
\cite{mycitation}. If you really absolutely need more capacity you can ask a
wizard to enlarge me.
Error2: Undefined control sequence \cite{mycitation}.
and so on, all presumably triggered by 1st error.
Deleting the citation solves the problem, but I'm not supposed to write a
scientific article without citations (bad move ;-)
RevTeX template performs even worse, with 22 (!) errors on 1st line, the
first being "Undef. control sequence
\bbl@redefine\LaTeX{\textlatin{\org@LaTeX }}", and I spare the other errors
for a rainy day.
Some idea/advice?
Thanks
Alessandro

Thanks. Works, but not for a style such as sections, where I try to do
\sectionfont{ \centering \large \bf \pagebreak \uppercase }
Anything possible like this (or I can just manually set some text
uppercase, but if I then change some section into subsection or vice
versa, I'd need to rewrite the labels by hand: subsection headers don't
contain capitalized text, just section headers).

Didn't quite work, however, it works if I put just
\renewcommand\contentsname{CONTENTS}
right before the TOC. So, thanks.

Did this, it's fine now.
The problem was that the Title was so long that it spanned two lines and
when I used "Large" style without \maketitle, the line spacing was far too
small (which it wasn't with the \maketitle). However, I read about
"setspace" package and \doublespace and with it it's perfect.

long table footnotes problem (1.1.6fix3)
Hi, I have a file written with 1.1.5fix2 which contains some long-tables. Many of rows contain "footnotes". I used ctrl-enter to place "linebreaks", so that the table fits to the screen (in lyx window), but new lyx (1.1.6fix3) ignores them. All cells are made "one-row". Then the table does not fit to the screen when in lyx window (the .dvi and .ps output is fine, of course) so I have a lot of troubles trying to edit these tables. Any hints ? Thanks in advance, Jacek.

Oh yeah, I've just remembered another alternative. Open your text document in an editor like Gedit or KWrite. Copy everything to the clipboard. Open KLyX and choose (assuming it's the same as LyX) Edit -> Paste primary selection -> as paragraphs Robin
