Re: Math mode with Lyx Aqua

[Nirmal Govind]

2- Also, letters in math mode are shown in italics. How does one avoid 
this? For example, I want to type g m-2 d-1, with "g", "m" and "d" as 
normal text not in italics (and, of course, "-2" and "-1" are 
superscripts).
Don't know the answer to 1. since I'm on Linux.. but for 2., you 
need to either hit Ctrl-M while in math mode, or type \textrm 
(again, in math mode), and you'll see a small blue box appear into

Math mode with Lyx Aqua

[Gattuso, Jean-Pierre]

I run Lyx 1.3.4 Aqua on Mac OSX (panther) using a French keyboard. I 
have two questions, one about superscripts and the other about the 
math mode.

1- I click on the formula toolbar button and type E=mc^2. The display 
is:  E=mc22 (the caret does not seem to be recognized).

2- Also, letters in math mode are shown in italics. How does one 
avoid this? For example, I want to type g m-2 d-1, with "g", "m" and 
"d" as normal text not in italics (and, of course, "-2" and "-1" are 
superscripts).

Thanks in advance for any help.

with the patched version you can simply run latex2html texfile,

Herbert,

I had seen the patch when I was surfing around for info, but I wasn't

On a windows system, what is the easiest way apply a patch? On 
unix/linux there is a program "patch" but I have never used it.

Maria,

  I don't know, but I can try. The only time I used a Mac (in 1989) I locked
it up in less than 2 minutes because all I saw were pictures and I had no
idea what they represented.

  Are you using OS X? If so that's sufficiently linux that commands I know
should work.

  First thing is to find out if ispell is installed on your system. Try
'locate ispell', or 'whereis ispell', or even 'which ispell'. On this
system, the latter command returns '/usr/bin/ispell' so I know the
executable is present and where it's located.

  Second thing is to tell LyX what spell checker to use. Start with the Edit
menu and take that to the second entry from the bottom (Preferences). The
second heading in the list widget on the left is "Language Settings". Click
on the small, square box to the left and it will open a sub-menu with two
entries: Language and Spellchecker. Click on the latter and see if 'ispell'
is in the top data entry widget. If not, enter it and click on "OK". If it
is, I'll pass to someone who knows LyX more intimately than do I.

HTH,

Rich

As it has turned out meanwhile, the problem (in my case) does not appear
if I run everything on an up-to-date Debian Sarge machine ... initially,
I used tex2pdf on a somewhat outdated Sarge-based machine. (E.g. tetex
1.0.2 vs 2.0.2, etc.).

Again, thanks for pointing me to tex2pdf :).

 If you place the cursor immediately to the left of the figure box you

Hi Herbert

Since you keep having to say the above, I wrote it down for you here:

http://wiki.lyx.org/beta/pmwiki.php?pagename=LyX.Fonts

so in the future you may just give that link if that's more convenient for 
you. Since I'm sure you have further information about this on your site, 
maybe you could link to that information from the wiki page above?

/Christian

PS. There's "shortcut" to your site in the sense that if you write e.g.

LatexTips:index.html

this will actually result in this URI

http://latex.s-v-p.de/index.html

which is of course useful since if you ever change your host, only the
shortcut has to be redefine.

CJK-LyX-1.3.4

[cghan]

Hello,


I have uploaded CJK-LyX-(xforms,qt)-1.3.4 at the new ftp site,

ftp://cellular.phys.pusan.ac.kr/CJK-LyX

CJK-LyX-(xforms,qt)-1.3.4 is a patched version of (xforms,qt) port of 
lyx-1.3.4 for multibyte language users such as Chinese, Japanese and 
Korean users.

Thanks to Mr. Satoru Goto([EMAIL PROTECTED]), this version contains an 
important fix of the bug in exporting lyx files to ascii or latex files. I 
also found with the help from Mr. Atsushi Shimmra([EMAIL PROTECTED]), a 
workaround of the problem displaying symbols in CJK-LyX-qt.  So, I 
strongly urge every users of CJK-LyX to this version.

CJK-LyX-xforms users should also notice that a new i18ned xforms lib., 
xforms-1.0-i18n_7 has been uploaded at the above ftp site.


Regards,



cghan

Of course, but at the cost of "wasting" time of different people answering
the same on different places because they are unable to see that their
answer has already been given. The correct "procedure" is to ask on one

I can see that. In any case (on a practical side), it is convenient to
follow these rules even if you don't agree with them, as many people will
simply ignore you if you don't.

xdvi answer: try writing a number followed by 's'. It is explained in the

\papersize Custom
why custom and not a4paper? Layout->Document->Paper
Because it is going to be printed on paper having the custom size.
ok, understood. But in this case you should use the
PostScript view instead of the dvi one, because xdvi
doesn't realize the different pagesetting.
it is impossible to place a pagenumber in a 5mm footer!
ok, sounds reasonable, the strange thing is: it worked with lyx 120, so I 
didn't pay attention.
I suppose that this depends to the package geometry, which
has in the latest version other defaults. And at 1.2 time
there exists another version of geometry.
by the way: do not use the font setting from inside LyX,
it is deprecated. Write instead in the preamble:
\usepackage[scaled=0.92]{helvet}
\usepackage{mathptmx}
\usepackage{courier}% luximono looks nicer here
I'm not sure what you mean...
do not use layout->Document-Font. Nearly all selections
are deprecated. Write the above into the preamble.

I attached the files, created120 means created with Lyx 120, created 132 means 
the file was created with lyx 132. It was exactly the lyx file I sent 
already. Using lyx 132 I created two files: One using the "pdf" export

ok, I will check out, wether this works with the dtp-Programm on which the 
file is processed afterwards whether this works
