line breaking
hi, i'm having problems with line breaking (hope that's the correct english phrase ;) within text. the first one is Fünf-Mächte-Abkommen which is not being broken. the second one is a bigger text in s using typewriter as font. with default font settings everything is ok. if you want to see what i mean, i can send screenshots (have no webspace currently). both things appear in lyx 1.3.0 and previous versions. so do you have any hints for me? please cc me. bye, daniel

Re: how to activate math preview? (on windows-lyx)
In article [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] says... I've got Ruurd's port of Qt-Lyx too, and previews are working here. Wow! Qt is a big improvement over XForms. Ruurd made a big achievement. If the little problems can be fixed and a Installshield installer applied, it will become a Windows application suitable for giving to the technically- challenged. The previews themselves are pretty wow too, of course! :-) We could use different delimiters for the sed command. Eg: BAIL_OUT () { # Remove everything except the original .tex file. FILES=`ls ${BASE}* | sed -e ,${BASE}.tex,d` rm -f ${FILES} texput.log echo Leaving ${BASE}.tex in ${DIR} exit 1 } My sed doesn't seem to understand ,,d? I changed it to the following, which seems to work: FILES=`ls ${BASE}* | sed -e s,${BASE}.metrics,,g -e s,${BASE}[0-9]*. ${GSSUFFIX},,g` Finally, type is not working for some reason so I commented out the line type pnmcrop. But it works in the FIND_IT function? I've taken another look at it. The trouble seems to be that the type in sh.exe which is used when lyx calls an external script doesn't understand symbolic links (which are a kind of weird hack under Cygwin). Strangely enough, it does understand them when executing commands. The executables of latex etc were in my path, whereas of pnmcrop only a symbolic link is in my path. The fix is simply to use the bash.exe provided with cygwin instead of sh.exe . Ruurd should be able to straighten this out. Regarding my problem with blocky characters: I have to use a \preview_scale_factor of 1.8 to make the math exactly as large as the surrounding text. Do you have any idea why this could be? My zoom is 100 and my dpi is 86 (I verified with a ruler it is correct). Is it normal that math bitmaps are one pixel lower than surrounding text? -- Bye, Steven

Re: Lost Menu: Lyx 1.3.0: Windows 98
In article [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] says... but all I had on the top of the screen were the icons for printing, opening files, and so on. I *could* open a file in one of my directories, but then *all* the information about what kind of LyX file it was, what kind of layout it had, etc was missing. I only had three options on the edit drop down list. Meaning the edit menu, or the list of environments? I took what you said above to mean that you weren't getting any of the menus, so I'm guessing this refers to the environment list. Couldn't it be localization problems?

I have one problem however: DIR=`dirname $1` BASE=`basename $1 .tex` Given $1 == 'c:/yourfile.tex' I would expect $DIR == 'c:/' and $BASE == 'yourfile.tex' If that were the case, then we wouldn't need to change BAIL_OUT at all. So I think that the real solution is to fill $DIR and $BASE 'correctly'. Did I read that 'basename' isn't working as you'd expect but, by implication, 'dirname' is fine? Try: # 'basename' apears to be broken on Cygwin BASE=`echo $1 | sed s,^${DIR},,; s,\.tex$,,` Finally, type is not working for some reason so I commented out the line type pnmcrop.

We could use 'which' instead, which is not part of the shell but should be part of cygwin. The problem is parsing the returned string in a portable manner.

Hmmm... we could test for the presence of ' ' in the returned string. Could you try this little script: #! /bin/sh # A replacement for 'type' that works on Cygwin also TYPE () { test $# -eq 1 || return 1 which $1 21 | grep ' ' /dev/null { return 1 } return 0 } FIND_IT () { test $# -eq 1 || exit 1 # 'type' appears to be broken on Cygwin TYPE $1 /dev/null || { echo Unable to find \$1\.

Do you have any idea why this could be? My zoom is 100 and my dpi is 86 (I verified with a ruler it is correct). No idea at all. But that's why we provided you with a parameter. Note that this is exactly double the 'normal' value, so it looks a little suspicious. Is it normal that math bitmaps are one pixel lower than surrounding text? Perhaps not unexpected. The metrics info used to place the bitmap is generated by latex. Is it guaranteed to be the same as that used internally by LyX to place real fonts? probably not. -- Angus

The '~S' modifier seems to be an exception to overriding previous key bindings. Having only this binding: \bind C-~S-a self-insert a means that both C-a and C-S-a will insert a 'a'. However, in this case: \bind C-a self-insert a \bind C-S-A self-insert A \bind C-~S-a self-insert b pressing C-a - 'a' so C-S-A - A. The binding C-~S-a is never activated. If one of the previous bindings are removed, i.e. \bind C-S-A self-insert A \bind C-~S-a self-insert b then C-a - 'A' and C-S-a - b.

lyx file permission problem under cygwin
Hello, It seems that if the citation reference dialog opens a bibtex file to get the list of the keys, it keeps the bibtex file open. If I try to edit the bibtex file at the same time using another program, I am not able to save it. The error message is like error 13, permission denied. I do not have this problem under linux, only under cygwin. Should the way lyx handles the bibtex file be changed? Read and close it immediately, and re-read only after a change is detected?

LyX 1.3.0-Qt no paragraph vertical spacing fill
I compiled and installed both Qt and XForm version of LyX 1.3.0 a few weeks ago. Qt version is really pleasing to use and the viisual comfort with aa fonts is great. I do have 2 small concerns. 1. There are some not translated options in the different combo boxes (I use it in french) -- if I note the different missing sentences, who must be advised? This problem occurs in both version (Qt and XForm). 2. Only in Qt version: you can't do a vertical space fill for a paragraph, it doesn't work. Selecting « ressort vertical » (vertical fill I guess in the english text) does nothing. The other options work. I had to use \vspace{\fill} in ERT to get my paragraph pushed at the bottom of the page. R. Ouellette

Re: how to activate math preview? (on windows-lyx)
In article [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] says... I've got Ruurd's port of Qt-Lyx too, and previews are working here. Wow! Qt is a big improvement over XForms. Ruurd made a big achievement. If the little problems can be fixed and a Installshield installer applied, it will become a Windows application suitable for giving to the technically- challenged. The previews themselves are pretty wow too, of course! :-) We could use different delimiters for the sed command. Eg: BAIL_OUT () { # Remove everything except the original .tex file. FILES=`ls ${BASE}* | sed -e ,${BASE}.tex,d` rm -f ${FILES} texput.log echo Leaving ${BASE}.tex in ${DIR} exit 1 } My sed doesn't seem to understand ,,d? I changed it to the following, which seems to work: FILES=`ls ${BASE}* | sed -e s,${BASE}.metrics,,g -e s,${BASE}[0-9]*. ${GSSUFFIX},,g` Finally, type is not working for some reason so I commented out the line type pnmcrop. But it works in the FIND_IT function? I've taken another look at it. The trouble seems to be that the type in sh.exe which is used when lyx calls an external script doesn't understand symbolic links (which are a kind of weird hack under Cygwin). Strangely enough, it does understand them when executing commands. The executables of latex etc were in my path, whereas of pnmcrop only a symbolic link is in my path. The fix is simply to use the bash.exe provided with cygwin instead of sh.exe . Ruurd should be able to straighten this out. Regarding my problem with blocky characters: I have to use a \preview_scale_factor of 1.8 to make the math exactly as large as the surrounding text. Do you have any idea why this could be?

So I think that the real solution is to fill $DIR and $BASE 'correctly'. Did I read that 'basename' isn't working as you'd expect but, by implication, 'dirname' is fine?

Hmmm... we could test for the presence of ' ' in the returned string. Could you try this little script: #! /bin/sh # A replacement for 'type' that works on Cygwin also TYPE () { test $# -eq 1 || return 1 which $1 21 | grep ' ' /dev/null { return 1 } return 0 } FIND_IT () { test $# -eq 1 || exit 1 # 'type' appears to be broken on Cygwin TYPE $1 /dev/null || { echo Unable to find \$1\.

Note that this is exactly double the 'normal' value, so it looks a little suspicious. Is it normal that math bitmaps are one pixel lower than surrounding text? Perhaps not unexpected. The metrics info used to place the bitmap is generated by latex. Is it guaranteed to be the same as that used internally by LyX to place real fonts? probably not. -- Angus

The '~S' modifier seems to be an exception to overriding previous key bindings. Having only this binding: \bind C-~S-a self-insert a means that both C-a and C-S-a will insert a 'a'. However, in this case: \bind C-a self-insert a \bind C-S-A self-insert A \bind C-~S-a self-insert b pressing C-a - 'a' so C-S-A - A. The binding C-~S-a is never activated.

Actually, the problem is that the window cannot be made smaller than its initial size (e.g. if you run lyx -geometry 800x600, you cannot make the window smaller than 800x600), at least on some window managers. This problem was not present in earlier version of LyX (I think it was introduced in LyX 1.2.0). Sure. I hard coded it: fl_set_form_minsize(form, form-w, form-h); The _reaon_ I did so was because of the possibilites of crashing LyX if the toolbars were longer than the size available to them. I _beieve_ that xforms 1.0 is more robust in this regard but I haven't tested. -- Angus

I searched the web and found out, that i have to use the hyperref package and make pdflatex as output. You don't need pdflatex for hyperlinks! You can just add \usepackage{hyperref} ( or perhaps \usepackage[ps2pdf]{hyperref} for an old system) and use View-PDF.

Some key bindings are unknown (I get an error if lyx is started) like insert-marginpar. 5. In math mode code like x \ne 0 is transformed to x\ne0 for LaTeX output which makes lyx basically unusable for me. 6. The new method to insert TeX code is rather annoying. I'd prefer the old behaviour where I edit the text directly without mouse clicking. 7. Same for user defined macro expansion. It's rather annoying when moving the cursor through a big equation.

lyx file permission problem under cygwin
Hello, It seems that if the citation reference dialog opens a bibtex file to get the list of the keys, it keeps the bibtex file open. If I try to edit the bibtex file at the same time using another program, I am not able to save it. The error message is like error 13, permission denied. I do not have this problem under linux, only under cygwin. Should the way lyx handles the bibtex file be changed? Read and close it immediately, and re-read only after a change is detected?

Here is the relevant snippet of code. We read the file with an ifstream which should close the stream automatically when it goes out of scope. You could try adding an explicit 'ifs.close()' command to the code (to be found in src/insets/insetbib.C). See below, but I'm not promising anything: void InsetBibtex::fillWithBibKeys (Buffer const * buffer, vectorpairstring, string keys) const { lyx::Assert(buffer); vectorstring const files = getFiles(*buffer); for (vectorstring::const_iterator it = files.begin(); it != files.end(); ++ it) { // This is a _very_ simple parser for Bibtex database // files. All it does is to look for lines starting // in @ and not being @preamble and @string entries. // It does NOT do any syntax checking! ifstream ifs(it-c_str()); string linebuf0; while (getline(ifs, linebuf0)) { ... } + ifs.close(); } } -- Angus

LyX 1.3.0-Qt no paragraph vertical spacing fill
I compiled and installed both Qt and XForm version of LyX 1.3.0 a few weeks ago. Qt version is really pleasing to use and the viisual comfort with aa fonts is great. I do have 2 small concerns. 1. There are some not translated options in the different combo boxes (I use it in french) -- if I note the different missing sentences, who must be advised? This problem occurs in both version (Qt and XForm). 2. Only in Qt version: you can't do a vertical space fill for a paragraph, it doesn't work. Selecting « ressort vertical » (vertical fill I guess in the english text) does nothing. The other options work. I had to use \vspace{\fill} in ERT to get my paragraph pushed at the bottom of the page. R. Ouellette

Hi all, I have to turn in a project this thursday and I was using lyx 1.2 with Miktek. It was working perfectly. I updated to 1.3 and changed my latex editor for fptex. I insert graphics in my document then try to display it using dvi, it generates the document, but when I try to look the included graphics it displays the following error and the it closes. Missing gsdll32.dll I have the ghostscrip applications installed. I don't know what is happening. Also when I generate the pdf file the graphics are not included. I hope someone could help me thanks Jose
line breaking
hi, i'm having problems with line breaking (hope that's the correct english phrase ;) within "text". the first one is "Fünf-Mächte-Abkommen" which is not being broken. the second one is a bigger text in ""s using typewriter as font. with default font settings everything is ok. if you want to see what i mean, i can send screenshots (have no webspace currently). both things appear in lyx 1.3.0 and previous versions. so do you have any hints for me? please cc me. bye, daniel

Indeed :) And concerning the ~S notation, it means "the state of the shift key is not relevant" (this is useful because "2", for example, will need shift on a french keyboard, but not on an US one).

Yes, S stands for shift, and ~S stands for "don't worry about shift". JMarc

Ruurd made a big achievement. If the little problems can be fixed and a Installshield installer applied, it will become a Windows application suitable for giving to the technically- challenged. The previews themselves are pretty "wow" too, of course! :-) > We could use different delimiters for the sed command.

I changed it to the following, which seems to work: FILES=`ls ${BASE}* | sed -e "s,${BASE}.metrics,,g" -e "s,${BASE}[0-9]*. ${GSSUFFIX},,g"` > > Finally, type is not working for some reason so > > I commented out the line "type pnmcrop". > But it works in the FIND_IT function? I've taken another look at it. The trouble seems to be that the type in sh.exe which is used when lyx calls an external script doesn't understand symbolic links (which are a kind of weird hack under Cygwin). Strangely enough, it does understand them when executing commands. The executables of latex etc were in my path, whereas of pnmcrop only a symbolic link is in my path. The fix is simply to use the bash.exe provided with cygwin instead of sh.exe . Ruurd should be able to straighten this out. Regarding my problem with blocky characters: I have to use a \preview_scale_factor of 1.8 to make the math exactly as large as the surrounding text. Do you have any idea why this could be? My zoom is 100 and my dpi is 86 (I verified with a ruler it is correct). Is it normal that math bitmaps are one pixel lower than surrounding text? -- Bye, Steven

Maybe I'm tired today... didn't see the '~' there. I've put some notes on this here: http://ev-en.org/wiki/moin.cgi/LyxKeyboardBindings A few questions though: Here are some keybindings: Bindning# Alt. \bind "C-a" "command1" # 1) \bind "C-A" "command2" # 2) \bind "C-S-a" "command3" # 3) \bind "C-S-A" "command4" # 4) \bind "C-~S-a" "command5" # 5) I'm guessing that: "C-a" is not the same as "C-A" "C-S-a" can't be typed on the keyboard? "C-~S-a" replaces "C-a" and "C-S-A" "C-A" is equivalent to "C-S-A" ? /Christian -- Christian Ridderström http://www.md.kth.se/~chr

What happens if LC_LANG is set to a non-existing language for example? It sounds like it tries to pull the words for the menus from a non-existent file. -- Bye, Steven
