samar,

  Now, that's a thought.

  I've no objection to writing LaTeX within a LyX document; that's how I'm
producing my PSTricks figures and plots.

Thanks,

Re: Overview of the NatBib styles - which is the right one for me?

[Rob S]

But as far as I understand the apalike.bst was not written with NatBiB in 
mind, and using it with NatBib could cause problems. This is why I started 
looking into abbrvnat.bst, plainnat.bst and unsrtnat.bst. But maybe I am 
wrong here.




I've just written my entire thesis using apalike + natbib without a problem

As I mentioned some time back though I have had to add:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]([EMAIL PROTECTED] , #2\fi)}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

 to the preamble but thats all.

I use multicol quite a lot. Its very good at balancing columns but never
needed to use it inside beamer. Let me know how it goes.

Paul,

  Ta-da! Experimentation to the rescue. I took off the keepaspectratio and
changed the dimension from height to width. _Now_ they're readable. Whew!

  Learning the idiocyncracities of beamer and pstricks simultaneously, and
the intersect of the two, became rather mind boggling. But, now I think 
that

I have a handle on both of those.

Thanks for all the help,

I've had similar adventures.  As you foretold earlier, all this stuff 
becomes reasonably logical after the fact.  Beamer produces great 
output, and the manual is great, but somehow I'm always twisting my 
ankle in a 'chuck hole along the way.  Just remember, repetition is the 
sincerest form of efficiency, or something like that.

By the way.   I looked in tips and tricks but seems
the link is broken there for pdf tips.

Re: How to get bookmarks in the pdf output

[Robert Orr]

I found the answer at Wiki page
http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/PDF

It turned out that my problem was in the preamble,  I
had 'ps2pdf' in my preamble, which after I removed it,
the bookmarks appeared in the output.

\usepackage[bookmarks,pdftitle={myTitle},urlcolor=blue,linktocpage,a4paper,colorlinks=true]{hyperref}

I believe that this version is "the most canonical" one. When googling for
"TZ rcs Windows" the second link leads to
,
which shows this version.

Bibtex bibliography formatting

[Bradley Ford]

Hi,

I need a specific type of formatting for my
bibliography (non-negotiable, required for my
dissertation, which is due --right now--).  Between
each entry in the bibliography, which is single
spaced, I need a single blank space.

The bibliography uses Bibtex (at the end, there is a
gray box labeled "BibTeX Generated References"), the
authordate2 style, and Natbib.  The bibliography comes
out fine; I can make it single-spaced, double-spaced,
etc. by highlighting the gray box and selecting layout
> paragraph > (spacing).  However, I haven't been able
to get spaces between the single-spaced entries.

Layout > Document > Layout > (single spacing, "skip"
button checked) gets me the right look in the
document, but the bibliography remains untouched.

Any advice?  Ugly hacks welcome.

Thanks,
Brad
