Re: Aspell broken
I got this message once. My problem was that, despite I had a running installation of Aspell on my computer, when I installed LyX 1.5.2 Aspell was installed again, but without the dictionaries (I think I cancelled their installation, since I already had them). You will probably have an Aspell directory under C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\ or C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Aspell. That directory should have a Dictionaries sub.directory that will probably be empty. If this is the case, download and install the dictionaries you need from: http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/Aspell6 Good luck! Nicolás M.

FW: lyx 1.5.2, mytabular using tabular-features of lyx
Hello everybody,
I'd like to use old-style-figures in my text and the usual arabic numerales
(majuscules? For anybody reading German: Versalziffern) in tabulars. For
different reasons it is not advisable to change the whole tabular-environment.
I'm using the linux-libertine-fonts. Markus Kohm on komascript.de suggested to
build an extra-environment mytabular around the tabular-environment:
-
\usepackage{libertine}
\renewcommand{\rmdefault}{fxlj}% switch to old-style-figures
\newenvironment{mytabular}{%
\fontfamily{fxl}\selectfont% fxl is the font with Versalziffern
\tabular
}{%
\endtabular
}
---
To make it easier to try, I've written this small example:
__
\documentclass[ngerman]{scrartcl}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{libertine}
\renewcommand{\rmdefault}{fxlj}
\newenvironment{mytabular}{%
\fontfamily{fxl}\selectfont
\tabular
}{%
\endtabular
}
\begin{document}
Hier kommt Text vom 19.3.2045, mit allen Zahlen 1234567890.
Und dann eine Tabelle:\\
\begin{mytabular}{|ccc|}\hline
123,34 678,7 Text\\\hline
\end{mytabular}
\end{document}
___
You will notice, that the digits inside and outside the tabular look
differently.
QUESTION:
I'd like to use this mytable-environment with Lyx, but not as an ERT; I'd
prefer to use the usual tabular-layouts and all the help lyx offers for making
tabulars. How can I do this?
Thanks for help,
Regards,
Alexander

When you use LyX, all works happens in a temp directory. LyX copies the LyX file there, _and all files referenced from it_. This works for graphichs and subdocuments, anything that LyX supports natively. It does not work for latex code you write yourself, as LyX makes no attempt at understanding your ERT or your preamble. So, do you reference other files from ERT? Or from the preamble? That could be the reason. Helge Hafting

Hello
I 've written
Conversely, sh -c latex file.tex runs, as the command is search inside

Although this is true, it is not the reason why lyx didn't compile my

out what was happening. But ps does not show the double quotes (if any)
when displaying processes, I see. So I said but didn't know.
I could at last compile some imported LaTeX, when commenting out

I suppose that pagestyle makes no sense in lyx ?

Cross-referencing a table inserted into ERT.
Hi, I am inserting a few tables I created using the ctable package. These tables are inserted into my lyx document directly as Tex (ERT). I include label=tab:Table X in the ctable options, but when I attempt to insert a cross-reference the labels I created in ctable do not appear in the cross-reference list. Is there a work around for this? I could also just manually include the cross reference but I prefer that it be automated. thank you for any input. Michael

\fontfamily{fxl}\selectfont% fxl is the font with "Versalziffern"
\tabular
}{%
\endtabular
}
---
To make it easier to try, I've written this small example:
__
\documentclass[ngerman]{scrartcl}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{libertine}
\renewcommand{\rmdefault}{fxlj}
\newenvironment{mytabular}{%
\fontfamily{fxl}\selectfont
\tabular
}{%
\endtabular
}
\begin{document}
Hier kommt Text vom 19.3.2045, mit allen Zahlen 1234567890.
Und dann eine Tabelle:\\
\begin{mytabular}{|ccc|}\hline
123,34 & 678,7 & Text\\\hline
\end{mytabular}
\end{document}
___
You will notice, that the digits inside and outside the tabular look
differently.
QUESTION:
I'd like to use this mytable-environment with Lyx, but not as an "ERT"; I'd
prefer to use the usual tabular-layouts and all the help lyx offers for making
tabulars. How can I do this?
Thanks for help,
Regards,
Alexander

Re: exporting pdflatex vs. lyx->latex->pdflatex
Rudi Gaelzer wrote: Funny. My presentation, which I wrote using LyX, does not export to PDF running pdflatex from File -> Export -> pdflatex. The PDF it creates is tiny and obviously has errors. However, if I do File -> Export -> LaTeX (pdflatex) and run pdflatex from Kile (KDE app), the PDF gets created all right. I'm just curious: any reason for this behaviour? I can only think of one thing. When you use LyX, all works happens in a temp directory. LyX copies the LyX file there, _and all files referenced from it_. This works for graphichs and subdocuments, anything that LyX supports natively. It does not work for latex code you write yourself, as LyX makes no attempt at understanding your ERT or your preamble. So, do you reference other files from ERT? Or from the preamble? That could be the reason. Helge Hafting
description in curriculum vitae
Is there a way to add the description paragraph style to the curriculum vitae document class? Alternatively is there an alternative to this class that I can use that would contain the description paragraph style. I am using lyx 1.4.2 on a ubuntu system. Will upgrading my version of lyx help? Thanks Ralph Boland

Go here [1] and enter "cv" in the search box. You might find something of interest. Otherwise, this template [2] uses the article class and it's quite nice (at least I took this as a base for my CV).

Re: german thesis template
Hi Sven, thank you for your reply. The backup files were not intented to be there ;-) I would like to share your example too. If you want so, feel free to send me your files (as zip + preview of titlepage). If you are interested you can also write a short description about your features (html). If somebody else wants to share his/her LyX template for thesis work, you can send it to me too (all files as zip and with an image-preview of the titlepage) to share it at the website. Bye, Rob

Re: Is uninstalling required ?
Hello
I 've written
Conversely, sh -c "latex file.tex" runs, as the command is search inside
the string itself.
Although this is true, it is not the reason why lyx didn't compile my
imported LaTeX. First, I relied on the ps command in trying to figure
out what was happening. But ps does not show the double quotes (if any)
when displaying processes, I see. So I said but didn't know.
I could at last compile some imported LaTeX, when commenting out
\pagestyle{fancy} If uncommented, lyx freezes when making a dvi.
I suppose that pagestyle makes no sense in lyx ?

Re: DocBook Support?
I don't know much about linuxdoc - but I am pretty sure I am correctly referring to docbook. Its an xml format for generating multiple types of documentation, pdf/html/chm (windows help files)/etc You can see lyx linked directly from the docbook wiki http://wiki.docbook.org/topic/DocBookAuthoringTools Can you shed light on either docbook or linuxdoc? (I'm mostly interested in docbook though) -Ryan On Nov 23, 2007 8:56 AM, José Matos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Thursday 22 November 2007 10:40:03 Ryan Cross wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I have seen some pointers to using Lyx for creating/editing DocBook > > documents.

Getting errors with microtype
Dear All,
When I insert the line
\usepackage[expansion=false,spacing=true,kerning=true]{microtype}
in the preamble, pdflatex produces errors. However, if I remove the
above line, no error occurs. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Paul
Cross-referencing a table inserted into ERT.
Hi, I am inserting a few tables I created using the ctable package. These tables are inserted into my lyx document directly as Tex (ERT). I include label=tab:Table X in the ctable options, but when I attempt to insert a cross-reference the labels I created in ctable do not appear in the cross-reference list. Is there a work around for this? I could also just manually include the cross reference but I prefer that it be automated. thank you for any input. Michael
search and replace noun style
Hi all. Does anyone know if there is a way to search a document for a certain word and replace it with the same word but in noun style (small caps)? thanks -- William Seager University of Toronto Scarborough www.utsc.utoronto.ca/~seager
