Wide tables

2004-09-23 Thread Lars Olesen

Hi,

Now I have made a wide table with 4 columns, but it is to wide to bee
on the page. I tried to use CTRL+ENTER to make a forced linebreak in a
heading, but it won't work in a table.

How can I for instance change the font-size in the table, or make
headings break on two lines?

Hey Mario,

configure complains that it can't find forms.h, which is the header file
of the xforms libarary, the default gui for lyx. So you either have to
install the xform-library and probably its developer-package or you can
compile xforms from source. xforms-1.0 should be available from the
lyx-site.

Another possibility is compiling the qt-frontend. Just and

--with-frontend=qt

to ./configure. If it complains (i.e. about missing moc) you should
install the qt-devel package.

Questions?

Because LyX loads babel automatically with the default language.

By loading babel manually in the preamble with another language option

First assure that you use the font ae for you document.
Assuming that this is the case, try to load aeguill with a font option 
(The font from where the guillemets (french quotation marks) should be 
stolen.) Under

http://wiki.lyx.org/pmwiki.php/FAQ/PDF#badFonts
I proposed to use the option [ec], but you can also try other options, 
described in the documentation of aeguill.

But the best solution is, to abandon aeguill and ae and use the latin 
modern fonts (lm). Your LaTeX distribution should offer you the 
installation of the lm fonts.
To use them in LyX, add to the preamble the line

\usepackage{lmodern}
and choose as document font standard.

Use the LaTeX-package caption.
After installing the package by your LaTeX distribution, add the line
\usepackage[options]{caption}
to the preamble. The options define the layout of the captions. Look at 
the documentation of caption for a description.

Another option is to use the koma classes which provide a wide range of

First assure that you use the font ae for you document.
Assuming that this is the case, try to load aeguill with a font option 
(The font from where the guillemets (french quotation marks) should be 
stolen.) Under

http://wiki.lyx.org/pmwiki.php/FAQ/PDF#badFonts
I proposed to use the option [ec], but you can also try other options, 
described in the documentation of aeguill.

But the best solution is, to abandon aeguill and ae and use the latin 
modern fonts (lm). Your LaTeX distribution should offer you the 
installation of the lm fonts.
To use them in LyX, add to the preamble the line

\usepackage{lmodern}
and choose as document font standard.

Use the LaTeX-package caption.
After installing the package by your LaTeX distribution, add the line
\usepackage[options]{caption}
to the preamble. The options define the layout of the captions. Look at 
the documentation of caption for a description.

Wide tables

Hi,

Now I have made a wide table with 4 columns, but it is to wide to bee
on the page. I tried to use CTRL+ENTER to make a forced linebreak in a
heading, but it won't work in a table.

How can I for instance change the font-size in the table, or make
headings break on two lines?

Hey Mario,

configure complains that it can't find forms.h, which is the header file
of the xforms libarary, the default gui for lyx. So you either have to
install the xform-library and probably its developer-package or you can
compile xforms from source. xforms-1.0 should be available from the
lyx-site.

Another possibility is compiling the qt-frontend. Just and

--with-frontend=qt

to ./configure. If it complains (i.e. about missing moc) you should
install the qt-devel package.

Questions?

Michael

  Notice that there are rpm's compiled for fedora core 2. I think that we
have one on our ftp site.

  If you still want to compile from source that is ok. Well I do both so...

Not in general.  I think (not positive) that if you declare a column to 
have a fixed width, you can then break lines.
How can I for instance change the font-size in the table, or make
headings break on two lines?
To change the font, highlight the entire table, click Layout->Character, 
change the font size (upper right drop-down in the dialog window), and 
click OK.

French quotation marks

I've been trying to use french quotation marks in my document, but when 
I generate the pdf file they were replaced with black little boxes. I

Add the following line to the preamble:

Better adjust the default language in the LyX menu Edit -> Settings ->

Because LyX loads babel automatically with the default language.
(You can see that, if you export yout document as LaTeX file.)
By loading babel manually in the preamble with another language option 
than the default one, you will often get problems.
