Re: Problem with full-screen mode: can you reproduce?
Yes! You are right Vincent. I can get the menu bar pressing Alt-F and then all other shortcuts work again. This is definitely a windows related bug (present with both installers). I had already reported it, but Jürgen Spitzmüller could not reproduce it, therefore I asked here. Thanks for your help. Cheers, Nicolás Vincent van Ravesteijn - TNW wrote: Nicolás wrote: Hi!

Mactex 2008 seems to have broken Beamer
Maybe I have just forgotten how to do this, but I have an existing file
that I used the article (koma+ beamer) class with OR article (beamer)
class .
However, switching classes just compiles as an article and not a
presentation.
Switching to the Beamer class gives me a presentation but with slides
that are two to three times the depth they should be. But otherwise OK.
Just in case it was a Lyx 1.5.6/Mactex 2008 thing. I updated to lyx 1.6
and its exactly the same.
However, the sample Beamer file works fine .
The preamble in the file that isn't behaving is:
\usetheme{Warsaw}
\setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{}
\setbeamertemplate{footline}[page number]
%next four lines needed to print 4 to a page handout comment out for

Re: Specific converter and child documents
2008/11/14 Tomasz Kołodziejski [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi, I wanted to create quite a big document. I use a lot inserting child documents. I've created a script called latex_pl which inserts ~ between every letter a, e, i, o and so on. It's required by polish typography. (for example - you shouldn't leave letter a alone on the end of a line; nevermind) So I've added that script into converters section somewhere in lyx options. It works with no problem when I click pdflatex preview with a single document. But when I click same button on a document with inserts of child documents - it looks like they're compiling using normal pdflatex not my modified one. Why? And how can I fix it? Such feature is very interesting for Polish language. Maybe we may assume this as a new feature for LyX, when Polish is enabled? What language did you use to write this script?

Searching
Hi,
Is there a way to search for text content, irrespective of markup? e.g.
if I have H\textsubscript{2}O or H$_{\text{2}}$O in the text, searching
for 'H2O' results in 'not found'. This is a bit difficult when writing
docs with parameters like scond (S\textsubscript{cond}) and sacin

Many thanks

Re: avoiding indentation within footnotes and adding vertical space under headings
Dear All,
I am currently finalising my PhD dissertation in Law.
I'm using Lyx 1.6 on
windows xp (no package yet for lyx 1.6 on my mandriva :-))
and would need
some help.
The class document I use is book (koma-script). The first
think I would like
to do is to to avoid indentation within the footnotes. I
guess this is
possible to do it with footmisc but I didn't manage to
put the right
commands into my preamble until now.
try with:
\usepackage[para]{footmisc}
in preamble
Plus, with koma-scritp specific command you can formated your footnotes. See
user guide of this style.
The second thing I
would need to do is
to add extra vertical space under the subparagraph and
paragraph headings to
make the space between these headings and the begining of
the text of the
next paragraph more or less the same than between the
section heading and
the begining of the next paragraph. I'm sure this is
not complicated to do
but I am a bit running out of time and I must print the
final document in a
few days so I would appreciate if someone could help me to
sort this out.
Nicolas
titlesec pacakge have all this options but is not easy to customize. See doc.

Searching
Hi,
Is there a way to search for text content, irrespective of markup? e.g.
if I have H\textsubscript{2}O or H$_{\text{2}}$O in the text, searching
for 'H2O' results in 'not found'. This is a bit difficult when writing
docs with parameters like scond (S\textsubscript{cond}) and sacin
(S\textsubscript{acin}).
Many thanks
Nick Bell

Re: Mactex 2008 seems to have broken Beamer - solved
To reply to myself Maybe I have just forgotten how to do this, but I have an existing file that I used the article (koma+ beamer) class with OR article (beamer) class . However, switching classes just compiles as an article and not a presentation. Switching to the Beamer class gives me a presentation but with slides that are two to three times the depth they should be. But otherwise OK. Just in case it was a Lyx 1.5.6/Mactex 2008 thing. I updated to lyx 1.6 and its exactly the same. However, the sample Beamer file works fine . It was of course me getting confused, The slides were the wrong size because I had custom page margins, which I assume were needed before, but not needed now. Also I am amobviously confused about the differeces between article(koma+beamer) and just article (beamer)

Not yet, but we are currently implementing this feature.
So currently you have to open the LyX-fikle with a ext editor and then
search.

Lyx 1.6.0-1 Install on XP?

Re: avoiding indentation within footnotes and adding vertical space under headings
Dear All,
I am currently finalising my PhD dissertation in Law.
I'm using Lyx 1.6 on
windows xp (no package yet for lyx 1.6 on my mandriva :-))
and would need
some help.
The class document I use is book (koma-script). The first
think I would like
to do is to to avoid indentation within the footnotes. I
guess this is
possible to do it with footmisc but I didn't manage to
put the right
commands into my preamble until now.
try with:
\usepackage[para]{footmisc}
in preamble
Plus, with koma-scritp specific command you can formated your footnotes. See
user guide of this style.
The second thing I
would need to do is
to add extra vertical space under the subparagraph and
paragraph headings to
make the space between these headings and the begining of
the text of the
next paragraph more or less the same than between the
section heading and
the begining of the next paragraph. I'm sure this is
not complicated to do
but I am a bit running out of time and I must print the
final document in a
few days so I would appreciate if someone could help me to
sort this out.
Nicolas
titlesec pacakge have all this options but is not easy to customize. See doc.

Re: Problem with full-screen mode: can you reproduce?
Yes! You are right Vincent. I can get the menu bar pressing Alt-F and then all other shortcuts work again. This is definitely a windows related bug (present with both installers).

bibdesk reference exportation
Hello again, I know that there is the possibility tho export one's bibliographic references and I already did this several times. However, by exporting the whole library into let's say a html-file, all the references are shown with the latest-inserted on top and the rest descending according to the date I typed them in. Does anybody knows a way to export the references in alphabetical order? A close look at the preferences of the program yielded no answer for me. :/ I use Bibdesk (Bibtex for mac) 1.3.18. thanks a lot! Ben

Mactex 2008 seems to have broken Beamer
Maybe I have just forgotten how to do this, but I have an existing file

However, switching classes just compiles as an article and not a

Switching to the Beamer class gives me a presentation but with slides

Just in case it was a Lyx 1.5.6/Mactex 2008 thing. I updated to lyx 1.6
and its exactly the same.
However, the sample Beamer file works fine .
The preamble in the file that isn't behaving is:
\usetheme{Warsaw}
\setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{}
\setbeamertemplate{footline}[page number]
%next four lines needed to print 4 to a page handout comment out for

I am sure I am doing something stupid, but at the moment its escaping
me, so I would appreiate any help.

I installed here also Python 2.5.1 and then LyX using my installer. LyX correctly recognized Python 2.5.1 and therefore not installed Python 2.6.
