More Page Numbering Questions
Hi,
I'm having trouble getting page numbering to work correctly. I have a
document that consists of a master .lyx file which includes several
component .lyx files.
The preliminary material uses roman numerals for page numbers, while the
actual text of the document uses arabic numerals. I'm controlling this
using \pagenumbering{roman} and \pagenumbering{arabic} commands
which are located in the master file.
The problem I'm runing into is that the last file in the preliminary
section (in my case, this is the List of Tables) has arabic numbering,
even though the \pagenumbering{arabic} command is located after it in
the master file.
Why is this happeing?
Also, in general, if I'm creating a document that includes other files,
where should I control things like page numbering? Should this be done
in the component files, or should it be done in the master file?
Cheers,
Chris

Most of that should happen automatically, if you are generating the list
of tables and such automatically. LaTeX itself distinguishes front
matter from main matter. So there shouldn't be any need to have a
list of tables in a separate file. That ought simply to be generated for
you.
That said, you'll want to make sure there is nothing in the included
file itself that is resetting page numbering.
And, even more importantly: To debug this kind of problem, what you want
to do is export to LaTeX and then look at the result.

Maybe there's some secret formula for doing this, but I'm not sure it's
possible, at least not without a lot more customizing of .layout files
then you want to do.
Plain latex offers the \includeonly command to do this natively, that is
\includeonly{chap3}
...
\include{chap1}
...
\include{chap2}
...
\include{chap3}
...
\include{chap4}
...
Run once all needed passes with \includeonly commented out, then the next run
with \includeonly uncommented will output a correctly numbered chapter 3.
This seem quite difficult to port to LyX, and IMHO useless: multipart docs are
quite
nice in LyX as you can compile separately without editing (in plain latex, you
would have
to patch the preamble in each chapter file).
You just need to be confident in the fact that the numbers will be all right
when you will build the
main document, in the same line as you are confident in TeX to compute a
correct layout...

wish for reference interface
Hi guys, First of all thanks a lot for this great piece of software! I am not sure if this is the right place to make wish (maybe the developer's list would have been better), but anyway I think it would be a great improvement for the reference cross-reference interface if one could not only sort but could SEARCH for expressions (maybe an iterative search - with a list of all results so far). thanks a lot, - helmut ___ Telefonate ohne weitere Kosten vom PC zum PC: http://messenger.yahoo.de

HTML export
Hello, Is there some way to generate a better HTML file out of a LyX file. Currently the export generates very old HTML, I need XHTML. Furthermore I'd like LyX-code sections to be ptt/tt/p, not dldt, etc. Is that possible ? I did some searches and I couldn't find anything. I've check the options of latex2html and the best I did was break the capability to export HTML for a while.

user interface study of lyx
Hello; I am about to start teaching an undergraduate course in human computer interaction for the fall semester (about a week away now) and I will be asking my students to look at lyx. I have been using LaTeX for years and I've had a bit of experience with lyx. I'm interested in how well (new) users can work with lyx. I joined the e-mail lists last week and I am impressed by the amount of traffic on both the user and development lists. What do I hope to come up with at the end of the semester? I expect that students will come up with some design alternatives for various aspects of the lyx interface. I would like these to be contributions to the lyx project. We are very interested in open source software development here at my university and if all goes well, we might even have a class in winter 2007, that could work at implementing these alternatives -- again, as a contribution to the project. In preparation for the class, I plan to post a separate questionnaire to the lyx-users and lyx-devel lists. All responses will be carefully reviewed. For those who are interested, I will also post details of the study that the students will conduct here, using participants from the participant pool that we have here. Basically, we will be recruiting people who self-report proficiency in either LaTeX or MS Word and then ask them to format a sample document using their preferred of those 2 tools and lyx. I welcome any comments about this. Again, my intent is to have this be a contribution to the lyx project. Best regards, Daryl -- Daryl H.

want to prevent textheight from bottom justify
Hi, Is there a way to prevent the text in Book document class from bottom justifying the text height? What I'm seeing is, if there's a large block (e.g., figure) that needs to follow paragraphs or an enumerated list, and there's not enough space on the page, instead of leaving white space on the bottom of the page, it spaces out the enumerated list or paragraphs on that previous page, so that some text will show at the bottom of that page. Looks like it's bottom justifying the page text. Thanks for any help.

Plain latex offers the \includeonly command to do this natively, that is
\includeonly{chap3}
...
\include{chap1}
...
\include{chap2}
...
\include{chap3}
...
\include{chap4}
...
Run once all needed passes with \includeonly commented out, then the next run
with \includeonly uncommented will output a correctly numbered chapter 3.
This seem quite difficult to port to LyX, and IMHO useless: multipart docs are
quite
nice in LyX as you can compile separately without editing (in plain latex, you
would have
to patch the preamble in each chapter file).
You just need to be confident in the fact that the numbers will be all right
when you will build the
main document, in the same line as you are confident in TeX to compute a
correct layout...

wish for reference interface
Hi guys, First of all thanks a lot for this great piece of software! I am not sure if this is the right place to make wish (maybe the developer's list would have been better), but anyway I think it would be a great improvement for the reference cross-reference interface if one could not only sort but could SEARCH for expressions (maybe an iterative search - with a list of all results so far). thanks a lot, - helmut ___ Telefonate ohne weitere Kosten vom PC zum PC: http://messenger.yahoo.de
Wish, suggestion about templates
Lyx preferences allow to modify the default templates directory. Problem: I use 2 templates directories (zs I guess some people) 1 system wide (/usr/share/lyx/templates/) 1 personal (/home/alain/.lyx/templates) So I'd like to be able to fix it as default dir in preferences as well as the first one instead of being stuck to $HOME in the templates request box. Should be straight forward... Thanks, -- ~adj~
HTML export
Hello, Is there some way to generate a better HTML file out of a LyX file. Currently the export generates very old HTML, I need XHTML. Furthermore I'd like LyX-code sections to be , not , etc. Is that possible ? I did some searches and I couldn't find anything. I've check the options of latex2html and the best I did was break the capability to export HTML for a while. Thank you. -- Pupeno <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (http://pupeno.com) pgph99utexJJB.pgp Description: PGP signature

I've check the options of latex2html and the best I did was break the capability to export HTML for a while. Thank you. The tex4ht package uses htlatex or xhlatex to produce html output. A proper environment seems to produce good results, see attached. http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~gurari/TeX4ht/mn3.html XHTML and Unicode The xhlatex command is a variant of the htlatex command requesting XHTML output. It consists just of a call to htlatex with the entry xhtml in the first list of options and -cvalidate in the third list. For instance, xhlatex filename or htlatex filename "xhtml". To request a Unicode representation of symbols, the first list of options should include the uni-html4 entry, and the second list should include the -cunihtf entry preceded by space. For instance, xhlatex filename "xhtml,uni-html4" " -cunihtf". Unicode representations of symbols in UTF-8 encoding may be requested with the entry -utf8 added to the second list. For instance, xhlatex filename "xhtml,uni-html4" " -cunihtf -utf8". XHTML with MathML Regards, Stephen
toc-dotted leaders
Hello, Does anyone know how to get dotted leaders on chapter entries in the toc? I'm using the memoir class and have been through the documentation but it seems to me that the latex commands are not working in LyX. Thanks, Bob
user interface study of lyx
Hello; I am about to start teaching an undergraduate course in human computer interaction for the fall semester (about a week away now) and I will be asking my students to look at lyx. I have been using LaTeX for years and I've had a bit of experience with lyx. I'm interested in how well (new) users can work with lyx. I joined the e-mail lists last week and I am impressed by the amount of traffic on both the user and development lists. What do I hope to come up with at the end of the semester? I expect that students will come up with some design alternatives for various aspects of the lyx interface. I would like these to be contributions to the lyx project. We are very interested in open source software development here at my university and if all goes well, we might even have a class in winter 2007, that could work at implementing these alternatives -- again, as a contribution to the project. In preparation for the class, I plan to post a separate questionnaire to the lyx-users and lyx-devel lists. All responses will be carefully reviewed. For those who are interested, I will also post details of the study that the students will conduct here, using participants from the participant pool that we have here. Basically, we will be recruiting people who self-report proficiency in either LaTeX or MS Word and then ask them to format a sample document using their preferred of those 2 tools and lyx. I welcome any comments about this. Again, my intent is to have this be a contribution to the lyx project. Best regards, Daryl -- Daryl H.

The jurabib package is the closest you can get to this scheme. See
http://texcatalogue.sarovar.org/entries/jurabib.html

I don't know what LyX exactly does nowadays because I still run v1.3.7, but you can convert to XHTML by exporting to LaTeX and running tex4ht http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~gurari/TeX4ht/mn.html on the LaTeX like this (adapt as you like): htlatex myfile.tex "xhtml,0,fn-in,NoFonts,fonts" > Furthermore I'd like LyX-code sections to be , not > , etc. Is that possible ? ? Please check your markup in LyX/LaTeX before converting. Jürgen.

I think this is annoying, and *commands* in ERT should not be counted. For instance, write an equation and put an alpha in it, then write $\alpha$ in ERT. The ERT alpha will be counted, while the equation's will be ignored. However, this behaviour has already been reported, see bugs #2064 and #2566.

want to prevent textheight from bottom justify
Hi, Is there a way to prevent the text in Book document class from bottom justifying the text height? What I'm seeing is, if there's a large block (e.g., figure) that needs to follow paragraphs or an enumerated list, and there's not enough space on the page, instead of leaving white space on the bottom of the page, it spaces out the enumerated list or paragraphs on that previous page, so that some text will show at the bottom of that page. Looks like it's bottom justifying the page text. Thanks for any help.
