Re: French spell check problem...
Sounds like the french dictionary is not available. Do you use ispell or aspell (Bearbeiten - Einstellungen - Sprache - Rechtschreibung)? Install the french distionary for ispell/aspell from the SuSE CD, if you don't have already (check /usr/lib/ispell or /usr/lib/aspell). Starting LyX from the console might give you a spellchecker error which is more informative. Hi, yeah, thanks, starting LyX from the console did the trick... ;-) Apparently LyX was looking for a file named usr/lib/ispell/french.hash. Looked there, found francais.hash, and renamed that to french.hash. Renamed francais.aff to french.aff as well, but dunno if that was necessary (or sensible). It's seems to be part of the spellchecker, though, so I reckon if LyX is looking for french.hash, the .aff file should be called french as well... Seems as if everything's working all right now. :-) So, thanks a lot for the help, Malte

table caption
Hi !
I have a problem concerning to table captions in a table float:
In my document I have inserted several table floats with captions and
everything goes fine.
But the last float I've added cause following error message by compiling with
pdflatex:
pdfTeX warning (ext4): destination with the same identifier
(name{table.1}) h
\end(document)
] (.AgBi-temp.aux)
When I change the caption to standard format, it works.
I'm using Lyx 1.2.0.
Any ideas ??
Greetings
Werner

Right. This is really a different thing to character styles. It should
probable be supported as well though.
IMO, character styles are just a special case of macros. E.g. an note
style that writes its content in italics, could be handed over to latex as
\newcommand[1]{\note}{\textit{#1}}
(Of course it would not be created by typing this as ERT but with GUI.)
If you want to change the note style from italics to in-braces, say
the macro would be
\newcommand[1]{\note}{[#1]}
This would be possible with my generic macro support but _not_ with a pure
character-styles approach (at least if uses the existing layoutcharacter
menu for its choices).
How do I expect the GUI to work:
Definition:
EditCreate_Macro% or another nice place and name
popup: Name: note % give it a name and press OK
%a red box appears at the cursor position, the cursor is in it
type #1
mark and set to italics via LayoutCharacter
ESC % the box now shows the name (note)
Use:
a) without selection
EditMacronote % or a keybinding + note,
% latex freaks will like \ + note
% the red box appears with nothing in it
% type whatever you will -- it becomes italicised
ESC or M-c Space %leave the box
b) with selection
EditMacronote % or a keybinding + note
% the selection becomes italicised
Redefinition:
Click note-box % the italic #1 appears
Mark the #1

change to [#1]

No you didn't.
Just try writting $\mathcal{a}$ in TeX mode and see what happens.
Please refer to my another posting, where I have given two
different outputs, one with r and one with R. What I
have written is that, the lower one I could produce in
1.1.5/6 versions, but not now. Since I have recently
upgraded to 1.2.0, I can't reproduce that.

Hi all,

I already have a \linespread{1.5} in the preamble and have experimented with
\renewenvironment{quote} but had no success so far.
Is there an easy way to get this?
Set the spacing in the document dialog, and not by changing the preamble.
The spacing for the TOC or bibliography can be changed using the
paragraph dialog (in lyx 1.2.0), or by using
\begin{singlespace} .. \end{singlespace}
The spacing for quotes can be changed by putting the following code
in the preamble:
\let\oldquote=\quote
\let\oldendquote=\endquote
\renewenvironment{quote}
{\begin{singlespace}\oldquote}
{\oldendquote\end{singlespace}}

I am using koma-script book class. When I set the page margins, such as top and bottom 1 inch, I get margins longer than that. The page style is chosen as plain. How can I get that accomplished?

magic preambles documentation
having used lyx on and off over a period of years now, i found that i had to
issue preamble commands in order to do something cool.
and watching this list also shows that many solutions use non-obvious magic

Appendix not working correctly
Hi, The last part of my current Lyx document is an Appendix. For this I switched on the Appendix in the menu. The problem is that in the final output file (Postscript) Appendix A is shown correctly, but all the following ones are displayed as Chapter B, Chapter C etc. instead of Appendix B This is both in the table of contents as well as in the actual headlines. Does anybody know a solution? Thanks Max

Cygwin Lyx CPU usage
Hi, I'm using Lyx 1.2.0 on cygwin. The CPU usage by LyX is consistently above 30% even though I may not be working in LyX at all. The memory usage is also considerably high. Sometimes, LyX starts doing something and it freezes my computer for a minute or so while it's doing whatever it's doing... Has anybody else noticed this and can anyone explain this? Thanks, nirmal
Lyx Insists on Using EPS Rather than JPEG
I am writing a Lyx document (1.1.6fix3) which includes many jpeg images. To
conserve time and disk space, I do not want to go through the process of
converting the jpeg images to .eps files. Because pdflatex handles jpeg
files, I am assuming things should be straightforward.
However, I notice curious behaviour from Lyx whenever I go File - Export -
LaTeX. In the tex file that gets produced, all my references to jpeg files,
eg. figure.jpg, are now references to eps files, eg. figure.eps. I also
notice that when I go View - PDF(pdflatex), Lyx inserts errors wherever I
have a figure with a jpeg image. The error says something like Unknown
graphics extension: .eps. \includegraphics{figure.eps}.
I don't understand why Lyx is changing all my jpeg references to eps. I
realize that if I export a latex file, manually change .eps to .jpg, and run
pdflatex on the edited file from the command line, everything works fine.
It would just be much nicer if I could simply pull down the View menu and
generate the pdf document from within Lyx. Could anyone explain how to stop
Lyx from changing all the jpeg references?
Many thanks!
Martin
Re: Cygwin Lyx CPU usage
Most of the times that Lyx freezes the computer for a while is because of the autosave feature.

Re: French spell check problem...
Sounds like the french dictionary is not available. Do you use ispell or aspell (Bearbeiten - Einstellungen - Sprache - Rechtschreibung)? Install the french distionary for ispell/aspell from the SuSE CD, if you don't have already (check /usr/lib/ispell or /usr/lib/aspell). Starting LyX from the console might give you a spellchecker error which is more informative. Hi, yeah, thanks, starting LyX from the console did the trick... ;-) Apparently LyX was looking for a file named usr/lib/ispell/french.hash. Looked there, found francais.hash, and renamed that to french.hash. Renamed francais.aff to french.aff as well, but dunno if that was necessary (or sensible). It's seems to be part of the spellchecker, though, so I reckon if LyX is looking for french.hash, the .aff file should be called french as well... Seems as if everything's working all right now. :-) So, thanks a lot for the help, Malte

table caption
Hi !
I have a problem concerning to table captions in a table float:
In my document I have inserted several table floats with captions and
everything goes fine.
But the last float I've added cause following error message by compiling with
pdflatex:
pdfTeX warning (ext4): destination with the same identifier
(name{table.1}) h
\end(document)
] (.AgBi-temp.aux)
When I change the caption to standard format, it works.
I'm using Lyx 1.2.0.
Any ideas ??
Greetings

Right. This is really a different thing to character styles. It should
probable be supported as well though.
IMO, character styles are just a special case of macros. E.g. an note
style that writes its content in italics, could be handed over to latex as
\newcommand[1]{\note}{\textit{#1}}
(Of course it would not be created by typing this as ERT but with GUI.)
If you want to change the note style from italics to in-braces, say
the macro would be
\newcommand[1]{\note}{[#1]}
This would be possible with my generic macro support but _not_ with a pure
character-styles approach (at least if uses the existing layoutcharacter

No you didn't.
Just try writting $\mathcal{a}$ in TeX mode and see what happens.
Please refer to my another posting, where I have given two
different outputs, one with r and one with R. What I
have written is that, the lower one I could produce in
1.1.5/6 versions, but not now. Since I have recently
upgraded to 1.2.0, I can't reproduce that.

Guenter -- how do you envision such styled text being idenfied in the LyX

appearance on paper, just like Environments.

Hi all,
I'm looking for a way to get a document with line spacing of 1.5 - however,

I already have a \linespread{1.5} in the preamble and have experimented with
\renewenvironment{quote} but had no success so far.
Is there an easy way to get this?
Set the spacing in the document dialog, and not by changing the preamble.
The spacing for the TOC or bibliography can be changed using the
paragraph dialog (in lyx 1.2.0), or by using
\begin{singlespace} .. \end{singlespace}
The spacing for quotes can be changed by putting the following code
in the preamble:
\let\oldquote=\quote
\let\oldendquote=\endquote
\renewenvironment{quote}
{\begin{singlespace}\oldquote}
{\oldendquote\end{singlespace}}
page margins
I am using koma-script book class. When I set the page margins, such as top and bottom 1 inch, I get margins longer than that. The page style is chosen as plain. How can I get that accomplished? The margins I get from the side of the paper to the text is around 1.8 inches... Is there a way around this?
magic preambles documentation
having used lyx on and off over a period of years now, i found that i had to
issue preamble commands in order to do something cool.
and watching this list also shows that many solutions use non-obvious magic
preambles.
the example below is just another one i wonder if there is a central
document or website that summarises or describes the preambles... for
novices like me?

problem with pstricks and PDF
Hi, I have a figure that I created in dia and exported to Pstricks tex format. I then input the file in LyX. The postscript output is fine but when I export to PDF using any of the three methods, the figure is missing. How do I get the figure in the PDF file without using ps2pdf on the ps file directly?

Appendix not working correctly
Hi, The last part of my current Lyx document is an Appendix. For this I switched on the Appendix in the menu. The problem is that in the final output file (Postscript) Appendix A is shown correctly, but all the following ones are displayed as Chapter B, Chapter C etc. instead of Appendix B This is both in the table of contents as well as in the actual headlines. Does anybody know a solution? Thanks Max

Cygwin Lyx CPU usage
Hi, I'm using Lyx 1.2.0 on cygwin. The CPU usage by LyX is consistently above 30% even though I may not be working in LyX at all. The memory usage is also considerably high. Sometimes, LyX starts doing something and it freezes my computer for a minute or so while it's doing whatever it's doing... Has anybody else noticed this and can anyone explain this? Thanks, nirmal
Lyx Insists on Using EPS Rather than JPEG
I am writing a Lyx document (1.1.6fix3) which includes many jpeg images. To
conserve time and disk space, I do not want to go through the process of
converting the jpeg images to .eps files. Because pdflatex handles jpeg
files, I am assuming things should be straightforward.
However, I notice curious behaviour from Lyx whenever I go File - Export -
LaTeX. In the tex file that gets produced, all my references to jpeg files,
eg. figure.jpg, are now references to eps files, eg. figure.eps. I also
notice that when I go View - PDF(pdflatex), Lyx inserts errors wherever I
have a figure with a jpeg image. The error says something like Unknown
graphics extension: .eps. \includegraphics{figure.eps}.
I don't understand why Lyx is changing all my jpeg references to eps. I
realize that if I export a latex file, manually change .eps to .jpg, and run
pdflatex on the edited file from the command line, everything works fine.
It would just be much nicer if I could simply pull down the View menu and
generate the pdf document from within Lyx. Could anyone explain how to stop
Lyx from changing all the jpeg references?
Many thanks!
Martin

table caption
Hi !
I have a problem concerning to table captions in a table float:
In my document I have inserted several table floats with captions and
everything goes fine.
But the last float I've added cause following error message by compiling with
pdflatex:
pdfTeX warning (ext4): destination with the same identifier
(name{table.1}) h
\end(document)
] (.AgBi-temp.aux)
When I change the caption to standard format, it works.
I'm using Lyx 1.2.0.
Any ideas ??

IMO, character styles are just a special case of macros. E.g. an "note"
style that writes its content in italics, could be handed over to latex as
\newcommand[1]{\note}{\textit{#1}}
(Of course it would not be created by typing this as ERT but with GUI.)
If you want to change the "note" style from italics to "in-braces", say
the macro would be
\newcommand[1]{\note}{[#1]}
This would be possible with my "generic macro support" but _not_ with a pure
character-styles approach (at least if uses the existing layout>character
menu for its choices).
How do I expect the GUI to work:
Definition:
>Edit>Create_Macro% or another nice place and name
popup: Name: note % give it a name and press OK
%a red box appears at the cursor position, the cursor is in it
type #1
mark and set to italics via >Layout>Character
ESC % the box now shows the name (note)
Use:
a) without selection
>Edit>Macro>note % or a keybinding + note,
% latex freaks will like "\" + "note"
% the red box appears with nothing in it
% type whatever you will -- it becomes italicised

Just now I did the following: Open the .ps file in xv, selected the portion and saved in .gif format. "r" is with superscript "N" and "R" is alone. The lower one I took from my thesis and the upper one I took from my present work. For my thesis I have taken upper ones as A,B,C,D,E,F,P,Q,V,W but the lower one was only r. Please find attached both the .gif files, which you can view in LyX also. Thanks S K Tomar

Please refer to my another posting, where I have given two
different outputs, one with "r" and one with "R". What I
have written is that, the lower one I could produce in
1.1.5/6 versions, but not now. Since I have recently
upgraded to 1.2.0, I can't reproduce that.

Another (probably better) solution would have been: in the spellchecker
options "Use alternative language" -> francais
It's the same than with "old" german ("deutsch").
BTW: Is it LyX looking for the wrong names or do the names differ in different
aspell/ispell installations?

minibuffer
Hi, Surprisingly, I am not able to use minibuffer at all in 1.2.0. What can be the possibility and remedy??? Further, can anyone help me on how to define (1) a math macro, and (2) keybindings possibly in my personal directory. Thanks in advance S K Tomar

No you didn't.
Just try writting $\mathcal{a}$ in TeX mode and see what happens.

Guenter -- how do you envision such styled text being idenfied in the LyX
environment? It would be wonderful if the appearance in the LyX resembled the
appearance on paper, just like Environments.

I can't see anything in this screenshot (the text is too small). Anyway, \mathcal only works with uppercase letter!

Set the spacing in the document dialog, and not by changing the preamble.
The spacing for the TOC or bibliography can be changed using the
paragraph dialog (in lyx 1.2.0), or by using
\begin{singlespace} .. \end{singlespace}
The spacing for quotes can be changed by putting the following code
in the preamble:
\let\oldquote=\quote
\let\oldendquote=\endquote
\renewenvironment{quote}
{\begin{singlespace}\oldquote}
{\oldendquote\end{singlespace}}
