preamble stuffs and macros
Dear List,
I tried doing this...
I went to document in Layout menu, then I went to
preamble and put this
\newcommand\Z{\mathbb{Z}}
And went to my document and changed to mathmode and
typed \Z in it.. in LaTeX this would be understood as
\mathbb{Z} and everything would go fine.. but in LyX,
apparently the preamble was disregarded .. an error
occured when I tried to view this in dvi saying that
\Z is an undefined control sequence (which would have
happened in LaTeX had I not but \newcommand in the
preamble) ..
So later I learned by reading the userguide that I
have to use math-macro .. the documentation is however
a bit confusing, should I type the following in the
minibuffer
math-macro Z \mathbb{Z}
or what?
I don't quite get this part of the documentation. And
the definition box that appears after I define a
macro.. it looks wierd in the document, I do hope it
doesnt appear on the pdf/dvi/etc. output...
I would suggest that the devoloper allow the
\newcommand in the preamble to work rather than having
a math-macro. Because that way it looks cleaner.
Sincerely,
Jose Capco

Good point about the bitmap thing, I'm definitely a vector fan. After looking a little at the devel mailing archives to get an idea of the discussion: I may be wrong, but could it be that people wrongly equate pdf=vector? AFAIK, pdf can hold both types of graphics, and e.g. imagemagick can produce pdfs, but *only* with bitmaps (last time I checked, or am I wrong here?). To my knowledge the only vector ways to go eps-pdf is ghostscript or acrobat. Again, please correct me if I'm wrong. But maybe for output the bitmaps are not so bad as they seem at first. Most scholarly writing (the target group of lyx) is meant for something like 600dpi laser printer resolution, even if you never really print it out. You can convert your pngs in a way that looks good there. I mean for the same reason pngs mostly work well on the web, and many lyx users probably never noticed that it was being converted (?). See also my user option suggestion below. I guess the best solution would be to associate a cost to each converter that tells how lossy conversion is. Without any offense: As a user I would like to have control and not rely on some hidden fuzzy-logic algorithm. Why not an option in preferences-lookfeel-graphics? This preference pane is almost empty now. What about something like a tick box Warn when converting vector graphics to bitmap, and secondly an editable field approx. target resolution for bitmapped images if necessary. A completely different path of course would be to count on ghostscript, but maybe lyx shouldn't depend on that. Anyway, just my suggestions, no urgent need on my side (remember I just found out about the auto-conversion for pdflatex yesterday!) -sven

Re: Getting LyX to replace custom-defined symbols as if they were standard LaTeX symbols
Hello,
Thanks for your reply and your example with \nicefraction. I did as you

Thank you very much!

Hello,
I am writing a draft for an article and I am still unsure about the
names of some variables I am going to use in my final version. In order
to handle this situation, in LaTeX I would define
\newcommand{\ntx}{N_T}
\newcommand{\nrx}{N_R}
and then use \ntx and \nrx in my formulas whenever needed. If I later
decide to use M_T instead of N_T, I can just redefine \ntx
correspondingly without replacing all occurrencies in the document.
I can do the same in LyX, by adding the commands above to the document
header or as LaTeX code within the document body.
The point is that if I enter math mode and type \ntx\sigma\nrx , LyX
will replace the LaTeX standard \sigma command with the Greek character,
but not my custom-defined symbols, which will only appear with their
command names in red. This makes my formulas almost as unreadable as if
they were written in plain LaTeX!
Is there a way to make LyX replace my commands as well, as it does with
the standard LaTeX ones?
I think that math-macro is what you really need.
Math macro is like \newcommand and some more ...
In the beginning of the document type:
M-x math-macro ntx 0
Then you get a box at the cursor consisting of Macro: ntx and two boxes
In the first box you fill in what shuld be displayed when processed by
latex. The second box is what is shown in the lyx editor when you type \ntx.
You can also add arguments to the math-macro by replacing the 0 to the
number of arguments you want. The arguments are called by #no
I sometimes defines a nicefraction by M-x math-macro nf 2
\nicefrac{#1}{#2} % first box
#1/#2 % second box
(with \usepackage{nicefrac} in preamble)
Then i get nice looking fractions in the output when calling \nf
Another maybe simpler solution is to turn on the instant-preview
(in Preferences/Look and freel/graphics (qt-version))
and have your \newcommand's in the preamble. Then you will see the result
in the lyx windown when you leave the equation.

Re: beamer, pgf and anti-aliasing
Dear all,
I am a happy user of LyX and latex-beamer. I would like to ask you all
if someone has experienced my problem:
the last week I've tried to insert a graphic logo of my university
into a presentation. The only way in which \logo works is with the
\pgfuseimage command. I work with lyx for windows and miktex.
The problem is that everytime you use a \pgfuseimage command, you lost
antialiasing. Fonts look not exactly pixelized and hard, but...
primitive, maybe, with minor but annoying deformations.
I am going to include to files, the .tex one and a zipped pdf output
for illustrating my point.
Any hint or advice?
It is really sad, because PGF is GREAT with transparencies and other
effects. On the other hand, a presentation is LIMITED in scope if you
cannot include a corporative logo in every slide. If there is a
(surely arcane) way to overrun this XOR dilemma, I would be happier
than before.
Thank you all in advance

Simply install it (as root, of course), using apt-get update ; apt-get install latex2html or through the use of aptitude, etc. Kenward ps. I think you may believe that its non-free status on debian means it is not available, or that it may not be obtained without payment. This is not true, if so. It pertains to the nature of the license that latex2html has, which does not fit the requirements for belonging to the core of debian.

Re: Getting LyX to replace custom-defined symbols as if they were standard LaTeX symbols
Hello,
Thanks for your reply and your example with \nicefraction. I did as you

Thank you very much!

Hello,
I am writing a draft for an article and I am still unsure about the
names of some variables I am going to use in my final version. In order
to handle this situation, in LaTeX I would define
\newcommand{\ntx}{N_T}
\newcommand{\nrx}{N_R}
and then use \ntx and \nrx in my formulas whenever needed. If I later
decide to use M_T instead of N_T, I can just redefine \ntx
correspondingly without replacing all occurrencies in the document.
I can do the same in LyX, by adding the commands above to the document
header or as LaTeX code within the document body.
The point is that if I enter math mode and type \ntx\sigma\nrx , LyX
will replace the LaTeX standard \sigma command with the Greek character,
but not my custom-defined symbols, which will only appear with their
command names in red. This makes my formulas almost as unreadable as if
they were written in plain LaTeX!
Is there a way to make LyX replace my commands as well, as it does with
the standard LaTeX ones?
I think that math-macro is what you really need.
Math macro is like \newcommand and some more ...
In the beginning of the document type:
M-x math-macro ntx 0
Then you get a box at the cursor consisting of Macro: ntx and two boxes
In the first box you fill in what shuld be displayed when processed by
latex. The second box is what is shown in the lyx editor when you type \ntx.
You can also add arguments to the math-macro by replacing the 0 to the
number of arguments you want. The arguments are called by #no
I sometimes defines a nicefraction by M-x math-macro nf 2
\nicefrac{#1}{#2} % first box
#1/#2 % second box
(with \usepackage{nicefrac} in preamble)
Then i get nice looking fractions in the output when calling \nf
Another maybe simpler solution is to turn on the instant-preview
(in Preferences/Look and freel/graphics (qt-version))
and have your \newcommand's in the preamble. Then you will see the result
in the lyx windown when you leave the equation.

Re: beamer, pgf and anti-aliasing
Dear all,
I am a happy user of LyX and latex-beamer. I would like to ask you all
if someone has experienced my problem:
the last week I've tried to insert a graphic logo of my university
into a presentation. The only way in which \logo works is with the
\pgfuseimage command. I work with lyx for windows and miktex.
The problem is that everytime you use a \pgfuseimage command, you lost
antialiasing. Fonts look not exactly pixelized and hard, but...
primitive, maybe, with minor but annoying deformations.
I am going to include to files, the .tex one and a zipped pdf output
for illustrating my point.
Any hint or advice?
It is really sad, because PGF is GREAT with transparencies and other
effects. On the other hand, a presentation is LIMITED in scope if you
cannot include a corporative logo in every slide. If there is a
(surely arcane) way to overrun this XOR dilemma, I would be happier
than before.
Thank you all in advance

I think you may believe that its non-free status on debian means it is not available, or that it may not be obtained without payment. This is not true, if so. It pertains to the nature of the license that latex2html has, which does not fit the requirements for belonging to the core of debian.

preamble stuffs and macros

typed \Z in it.. in LaTeX this would be understood as

minibuffer
math-macro Z \mathbb{Z}
or what?
I don't quite get this part of the documentation. And
the definition box that appears after I define a
macro.. it looks wierd in the document, I do hope it
doesnt appear on the pdf/dvi/etc. output...
I would suggest that the devoloper allow the
\newcommand in the preamble to work rather than having
a math-macro. Because that way it looks cleaner.

AFAIK, pdf can hold both types of graphics, and e.g. imagemagick can produce pdfs, but *only* with bitmaps (last time I checked, or am I wrong here?). To my knowledge the only vector ways to go eps->pdf is ghostscript or acrobat. Again, please correct me if I'm wrong. But maybe for output the bitmaps are not so bad as they seem at first. Most scholarly writing (the target group of lyx) is meant for something like 600dpi laser printer resolution, even if you never really print it out. You can convert your pngs in a way that looks good there. I mean for the same reason pngs mostly work well on the web, and many lyx users probably never noticed that it was being converted (?). See also my user option suggestion below. I guess the best solution would be to associate a cost to each converter that tells how lossy conversion is. Without any offense: As a user I would like to have control and not rely on some hidden fuzzy-logic algorithm. Why not an option in preferences-look? This preference pane is almost empty now. What about something like a tick box "Warn when converting vector graphics to bitmap", and secondly an editable field "approx. target resolution for bitmapped images if necessary". A completely different path of course would be to count on ghostscript, but maybe lyx shouldn't depend on that. Anyway, just my suggestions, no urgent need on my side (remember I just found out about the auto-conversion for pdflatex yesterday!) -sven

Why not an option in This is no fuzzy logic, and in order to be usable it would need to be documented. You have complete control over your converters, of course you would also be able to adjust the cost factor. I think it is indeed a useful approach. > preferences-look?

LyX depends heavily on ghostscript (at least in the default configuration). But again, this is configurable. Georg

Re: Viewing eps/pdf within LyXWin on Windows 2000
Thanks for your response Uwe,
I was originally using Image Magick 6.0.2 (I think). I upgraded it to
6.1.9 but I am still having the same problem!
I am using AFPL Ghostscript 8.50 and LyXWin 1.3.5 win32 nc.
- I can view .jpg and .ppm images inside LyX
- I can not view .eps or .pdf images inside LyX
- I can view the DVI, PDF(pdflatex)and Postscript outputs fine (but not
the PDF (dvipdfm) output)
I can run convert from the command line ("convert eps:c:\aulogo.eps
ppm:c:\test.ppm"), and was able to convert the .eps image that LyX was
having trouble with to a .ppm
Any more ideas on what might be wrong??
I ran LyX in graphics debug mode and I have included the output at the end
of this email.
Thanks in advance

True, but the optimal solution that should be implemented some day would be to retain vector data. But this seems to clash with user-definable converters, doesn't it? It almost seems like incompatible design choices: user-choices vs. automatic-good-choices-by-prgoram. No single one is superior per se, but should be followed consistently.

Maybe a little simpler would be to have priority rankings for each source format in a couple of drop-down lists.

Re: Getting LyX to replace custom-defined symbols as if they were standard LaTeX symbols
Hello,
Thanks for your reply and your example with \nicefraction. I did as you
wrote but not get the instant preview to work, but the solution with
math-macro works as wished and rocks!
Thank you very much!

Hello,
I am writing a draft for an article and I am still unsure about the
names of some variables I am going to use in my final version. In order
to handle this situation, in LaTeX I would define
\newcommand{\ntx}{N_T}
\newcommand{\nrx}{N_R}
and then use \ntx and \nrx in my formulas whenever needed. If I later
decide to use M_T instead of N_T, I can just redefine \ntx
correspondingly without replacing all occurrencies in the document.
I can do the same in LyX, by adding the commands above to the document
header or as LaTeX code within the document body.
The point is that if I enter math mode and type \ntx\sigma\nrx , LyX
will replace the LaTeX standard \sigma command with the Greek character,
but not my custom-defined symbols, which will only appear with their
command names in red. This makes my formulas almost as unreadable as if
they were written in plain LaTeX!
Is there a way to make LyX replace my commands as well, as it does with
the standard LaTeX ones?
I think that math-macro is what you really need.
Math macro is like \newcommand and some more ...
In the beginning of the document type:
M-x math-macro ntx 0
Then you get a box at the cursor consisting of "Macro: ntx" and two boxes
In the first box you fill in what shuld be displayed when processed by
latex. The second box is what is shown in the lyx editor when you type \ntx.
You can also add arguments to the math-macro by replacing the 0 to the
number of arguments you want. The arguments are called by #no
I sometimes defines a nicefraction by M-x math-macro nf 2
\nicefrac{#1}{#2} % first box
#1/#2 % second box
(with \usepackage{nicefrac} in preamble)
Then i get nice looking fractions in the output when calling \nf
Another maybe simpler solution is to turn on the instant-preview
(in Preferences/Look and freel/graphics (qt-version))
and have your \newcommand's in the preamble. Then you will see the result
in the lyx windown when you leave the equation.

Re: beamer, pgf and anti-aliasing
Dear all,
I am a happy user of LyX and latex-beamer. I would like to ask you all
if someone has experienced my problem:
the last week I've tried to insert a graphic logo of my university
into a presentation. The only way in which \logo works is with the
\pgfuseimage command. I work with lyx for windows and miktex.
The problem is that everytime you use a \pgfuseimage command, you lost
antialiasing. Fonts look not exactly pixelized and hard, but...
"primitive", maybe, with minor but annoying deformations.
I am going to include to files, the .tex one and a zipped pdf output
for illustrating my point.
Any hint or advice?
It is really sad, because PGF is GREAT with transparencies and other
effects. On the other hand, a presentation is LIMITED in scope if you
cannot include a corporative logo in every slide. If there is a
(surely arcane) way to overrun this XOR dilemma, I would be happier
than before.
Thank you all in advance

Simply install it (as root, of course), using apt-get update ; apt-get install latex2html or through the use of aptitude, etc. Kenward ps. I think you may believe that its non-free status on debian means it is not available, or that it may not be obtained without payment. This is not true, if so. It pertains to the nature of the license that latex2html has, which does not fit the requirements for belonging to the core of debian.
