How to disable popping math bar?
Hi all, I have been an addicted LyX user in the past and enjoyed it very much. However, there is a feature in recent releases of LyX that keeps annoying me. Namely, any time I enter math mode with ctrl-m, a math bar is popping in the lower area of the screen, and it disappears as soon as I leave the math mode. I understand that this feature is very useful for beginners or people who like to select stuff from menus, but I am an old LaTeX-user and I know all my LaTeX keywords by heart, so I do not really need this kind of help. On the othyer hand, constant popping and unpopping is visually very distracting. I was looking for a box to untick in LyX preferences, but did not find anything reasonable that would disable this feature. Am I overlooking something trivial? My LyX version is 1.6.4.1 and I am using the Linux version on Arch Linux. Thanx in advance for any help! Jan

Need help redefining Latex definitions
Hello, for my field of studies, a greater sectioning depth than lyx normally offers is needed. For my purpose, I need at least 7 levels. I need to use all levels from part to subparagraph. I formated all headings with the titlesec package. Now I need to stop the page breaks before and after \chapter and \part. As far as I learned, the only proper way to do this is to redefine Latex definitions. I'm relatively new to lyx and latex, and don't know how to do this. Could someone help me?

LyX Issue with Beamer Package
Dear all,
writing some slides in LyX 1.6.3 with the Beamer package and running into a
nasty problem and I need some help.
Researching gmane I found
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/22673 and I believe the then
mentioned issue still is a bug and I assume the bug is in an internal LyX data
structure, as suggested by the original poster.
It looks like the poster of that thread found a different workaround which,
unfortunately, is not working in my case. Moreover the then discovered bug still
exists and is reproducible.
I attach a minimal LyX example below (File 1). If this file is exported as plain
LaTeX we get (File 2). Moreover I attach the beginning of the plain LaTeX export
of another LyX document produced with beamer and not showing the mentioned
problem (File 3).
The reason for the error is quite clear: The export in File 3 contains a line
\newenvironment{topcolumns}{\begin{columns}[t]}{\end{columns}}
whereas the export of the faulty file, File 2, does NOT contain this line and
consequently leads to an error.
This phenomenon shows up although the beginning of a working LyX file (File 4)
is completely identical to the beginning of the not working lyx file. To me it
looks like an internal glitch is responsible that the first 5 lines of the lyx
file in one case import the correct Latex header whereas in the other they
unexpectedly drop one line.
Thanx for your help.
PS: I do observe the suggestion of the above mentioned post and have an
end_frame in the non-working lyx file. So the suggestion of the old thread is
not the correct hint.

Problem with latex conversion
Hello.
I'm having a problem with previewing the postscript or exporting to latex and
running latex on the file.
The problem is that in the latex code I get: \end{sol}\end{ug} at the end of
the line and it seems to ignore the \end{ug} part and thus fail.
I'm only getting the \end{sol}\end{ug} stuff at some of the places and not
all, elsewhere I get
\end{sol}
\end{ug}
I attach an example lyx file.
The problem occurs with the environment called GGGUG and seems to vanish if I
change the part of the environment GGGSats to something else.
I've attached the nessecery module.
Have I gotten some of my environments wrong or is LyX doing something wrong?
Any help on this matter is very much appreciated.

Re: Urgent: Latex error with version 1.6.4.1
Guys, I've found a solution for this shittiest error finally. There were nothing wrong with the software, just a little thing that often you don't think. The fact is that to write my thesis a friend of mine passed me a folder with a thesis already done. In this folder there were files model with the right graphic settings. So, I just overwrite my stuff with them. But, I didnt' eliminate the backup/temporary files (whatever you call them) and once I tried to compile them, the error showed up. So, I just eliminated them and all work perfectly. I really didn't think of this...so, I'm apologize for your time spent! Bye Nicola

Have I gotten some of my environments wrong or is LyX doing something wrong?
When the next layout is an environment, LyX does not write the newline
before writing the closing tag. There's a reason it's done that way,
mostly to avoid excessive space between successive environments and it
seems to work with all of LyX's own environments. When you use ERT,
though, that can cause problems and you may need to add your own
newlines where necessary.

How do you enter additional arguments?
Hi All.
I'm missing something obvious here. I'm using moderncv to construct my CV.
One of the paragraph environments is \cventry
I need to have a cventry look like the following:
\cventry{date} {major} {University}{School} {City} {title}
When I use the paragraph environment in Lyx for an Entry I get the
following code:
\cventry{}
Only one argument is listed but I need six. How do I get it
to enter the next argument? I've tried '\{' with no luck, it just
buries the bracket inside the existing bracket. How do I move out of
the first set of argument brackets and start the 2nd set of argument
brackets? To be concrete...
How do I move from
\cventry{}
To
\cventry{date}{}
Thanks in advance,
Rick

The problem mentioned in that thread was not a bug as I recall, it was
just user error. In any case, I do not think it pertains to your file.
Your file #1 contains a LaTeX command \begin{topcolumns}%{}. When I
try to compile your file, LaTeX complains that the topcolumns
environment is undefined -- which does not surprise me, since I've never
heard of it and you are not loading any packages in the preamble that
define it.
It looks as though you want to create two parallel columns (aligned at
the top?). Does the attached file do what you wish?

Tufte-book Layout File
I recently made a .layout file for the Tufte-book class.
http://code.google.com/p/tufte-latex/
I had good luck making it work with my materials, but I know nothing
about LyX .layout files. I simply took the existing tufte-handout.layout
file on the LyX.org website and modified it appropriately. I also added
the full-width figure class figure* which seemed to be missing.
Anyway, I'm hoping those with more skills can evaluate this .layout
file, improve it, and, possibly, find some use for it.

Not sure this is the right way to do it, but the following works.
After the Entry: prompt, type the date, insert an ERT widget (the TEX
button on the toolbar) and type a right brace, a left brace, whatever
makes you feel good, another right brace/left brace pair if you need
another argument, and so on ... everything but the final right brace.
It might help to have View-View Source on so that you can see this
unfold in real time.
BTW, you're not the Rick DeShon at MSU, are you?

Epsilon ran off ...
... and took varrho with it. This is some sort of screen font problem, but one I don't recall seeing reported before. I've got a copy of LyX 1.6.3 installed on Mint Gloria (a Linux distro built over Ubuntu -- Jaunty Jackalope, I think). Of the Greek letters in the math palette, all but two (\epsilon and \varrho) display correctly in formulas; those two show up as text in the GUI (display correctly in output). Usually missing math glyphs are the result of a missing screen font, but it seems unlikely to be the case here since only two glyphs are missing. I've also got LyX 1.6.3 installed on an Ubuntu (Jaunty) box, and the glyphs are present there. Any suggestions where I could look for the cause? Thanks, Paul

Problem with latex conversion
Hello.
I'm having a problem with previewing the postscript or exporting to latex and
running latex on the file.
The problem is that in the latex code I get: \end{sol}\end{ug} at the end of
the line and it seems to ignore the \end{ug} part and thus fail.
I'm only getting the \end{sol}\end{ug} stuff at some of the places and not
all, elsewhere I get
\end{sol}
\end{ug}
I attach an example lyx file.
The problem occurs with the environment called GGGUG and seems to vanish if I
change the part of the environment GGGSats to something else.
I've attached the nessecery module.
Have I gotten some of my environments wrong or is LyX doing something wrong?
Any help on this matter is very much appreciated.

Re: Urgent: Latex error with version 1.6.4.1
Guys, I've found a solution for this shittiest error finally. There were nothing wrong with the software, just a little thing that often you don't think. The fact is that to write my thesis a friend of mine passed me a folder with a thesis already done. In this folder there were files model with the right graphic settings. So, I just overwrite my stuff with them. But, I didnt' eliminate the backup/temporary files (whatever you call them) and once I tried to compile them, the error showed up. So, I just eliminated them and all work perfectly. I really didn't think of this...so, I'm apologize for your time spent! Bye Nicola

When the next layout is an environment, LyX does not write the newline
before writing the closing tag. There's a reason it's done that way,
mostly to avoid excessive space between successive environments and it
seems to work with all of LyX's own environments. When you use ERT,
though, that can cause problems and you may need to add your own
newlines where necessary.

When I use the paragraph environment in Lyx for an Entry I get the
following code:

Only one argument is listed but I need six. How do I get it
to enter the next argument? I've tried '\{' with no luck, it just
buries the bracket inside the existing bracket. How do I move out of

Tufte-book Layout File
I recently made a .layout file for the Tufte-book class.
http://code.google.com/p/tufte-latex/
I had good luck making it work with my materials, but I know nothing
about LyX .layout files. I simply took the existing tufte-handout.layout
file on the LyX.org website and modified it appropriately. I also added
the full-width figure class figure* which seemed to be missing.
Anyway, I'm hoping those with more skills can evaluate this .layout
file, improve it, and, possibly, find some use for it.

Not sure this is the right way to do it, but the following works.
After the Entry: prompt, type the date, insert an ERT widget (the TEX
button on the toolbar) and type a right brace, a left brace, whatever
makes you feel good, another right brace/left brace pair if you need
another argument, and so on ... everything but the final right brace.
It might help to have View-View Source on so that you can see this
unfold in real time.
BTW, you're not the Rick DeShon at MSU, are you?

Epsilon ran off ...
... and took varrho with it. This is some sort of screen font problem, but one I don't recall seeing reported before. I've got a copy of LyX 1.6.3 installed on Mint Gloria (a Linux distro built over Ubuntu -- Jaunty Jackalope, I think). Of the Greek letters in the math palette, all but two (\epsilon and \varrho) display correctly in formulas; those two show up as text in the GUI (display correctly in output). Usually missing math glyphs are the result of a missing screen font, but it seems unlikely to be the case here since only two glyphs are missing. I've also got LyX 1.6.3 installed on an Ubuntu (Jaunty) box, and the glyphs are present there. Any suggestions where I could look for the cause? Thanks, Paul

How to disable popping math bar?
Hi all, I have been an addicted LyX user in the past and enjoyed it very much. However, there is a feature in recent releases of LyX that keeps annoying me. Namely, any time I enter math mode with ctrl-m, a math bar is popping in the lower area of the screen, and it disappears as soon as I leave the math mode. I understand that this feature is very useful for beginners or people who like to select stuff from menus, but I am an old LaTeX-user and I know all my LaTeX keywords by heart, so I do not really need this kind of help. On the othyer hand, constant popping and unpopping is visually very distracting. I was looking for a box to untick in LyX preferences, but did not find anything reasonable that would disable this feature. Am I overlooking something trivial? My LyX version is 1.6.4.1 and I am using the Linux version on Arch Linux. Thanx in advance for any help! Jan

Need help redefining Latex definitions
Hello, for my field of studies, a greater sectioning depth than lyx normally offers is needed. For my purpose, I need at least 7 levels. I need to use all levels from part to subparagraph. I formated all headings with the titlesec package. Now I need to stop the page breaks before and after \chapter and \part. As far as I learned, the only proper way to do this is to redefine Latex definitions. I'm relatively new to lyx and latex, and don't know how to do this. Could someone help me?

LyX Issue with Beamer Package
Dear all,
writing some slides in LyX 1.6.3 with the Beamer package and running into a
nasty problem and I need some help.
Researching gmane I found
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/22673 and I believe the then
mentioned issue still is a bug and I assume the bug is in an internal LyX data
structure, as suggested by the original poster.
It looks like the poster of that thread found a different workaround which,
unfortunately, is not working in my case. Moreover the then discovered bug still
exists and is reproducible.
I attach a minimal LyX example below (File 1). If this file is exported as plain
LaTeX we get (File 2). Moreover I attach the beginning of the plain LaTeX export
of another LyX document produced with beamer and not showing the mentioned
problem (File 3).
The reason for the error is quite clear: The export in File 3 contains a line
\newenvironment{topcolumns}{\begin{columns}[t]}{\end{columns}}
whereas the export of the faulty file, File 2, does NOT contain this line and
consequently leads to an error.
This phenomenon shows up although the beginning of a working LyX file (File 4)
is completely identical to the beginning of the not working lyx file. To me it
looks like an internal glitch is responsible that the first 5 lines of the lyx
file in one case import the correct Latex header whereas in the other they
unexpectedly drop one line.
Thanx for your help.
PS: I do observe the suggestion of the above mentioned post and have an
end_frame in the non-working lyx file. So the suggestion of the old thread is
not the correct hint.

Tufte-book Layout File
I recently made a .layout file for the Tufte-book class.
http://code.google.com/p/tufte-latex/
I had good luck making it work with my materials, but I know nothing
about LyX .layout files. I simply took the existing tufte-handout.layout
file on the LyX.org website and modified it appropriately. I also added
the full-width figure class figure* which seemed to be missing.
Anyway, I'm hoping those with more skills can evaluate this .layout
file, improve it, and, possibly, find some use for it.

Re: Lyx/BibLaTeX/Memoir problems
I have corrected the spaces in the path, and still receive the same problem. As an aside, I have encoded the bibliography in a range of different ways, not just UTF-8. =( Jasper
Re: How do you enter additional arguments?

Hi All.
I'm missing something obvious here. I'm using moderncv to construct my CV.
One of the paragraph environments is \cventry
I need to have a cventry look like the following:
\cventry{date} {major} {University}{School} {City} {title}
When I use the paragraph environment in Lyx for an "Entry" I get the
following code:
\cventry{}
Only one argument is listed but I need six. How do I get it
to enter the next argument? I've tried '\{' with no luck, it just
buries the bracket inside the existing bracket. How do I move out of
the first set of argument brackets and start the 2nd set of argument
brackets? To be concrete...
How do I move from
\cventry{}
To
\cventry{date}{}
Thanks in advance,
Rick
Not sure this is the "right" way to do it, but the following works.
After the "Entry: " prompt, type the date, insert an ERT widget (the TEX
button on the toolbar) and type a right brace, a left brace, whatever
makes you feel good, another right brace/left brace pair if you need
another argument, and so on ... everything but the final right brace.
It might help to have View->View Source on so that you can see this
unfold in real time.
BTW, you're not the Rick DeShon at MSU, are you?

Epsilon ran off ...
... and took varrho with it. This is some sort of screen font problem, but one I don't recall seeing reported before. I've got a copy of LyX 1.6.3 installed on Mint Gloria (a Linux distro built over Ubuntu -- Jaunty Jackalope, I think). Of the Greek letters in the math palette, all but two (\epsilon and \varrho) display correctly in formulas; those two show up as text in the GUI (display correctly in output). Usually missing math glyphs are the result of a missing screen font, but it seems unlikely to be the case here since only two glyphs are missing. I've also got LyX 1.6.3 installed on an Ubuntu (Jaunty) box, and the glyphs are present there. Any suggestions where I could look for the cause? Thanks, Paul
Re: Page numbers in abstract, section numbering, and TOC modification
I hate to bump this, but my thesis is close to its due date, and I'm hoping to have these issues sorted so I can print it! Would anyone be able to help me at all? Thank you! Pete.

I am using the report class. 1. How do I get the page numbers to continue in the abstract? The abstract is the third page in, and appears to reset the page count. 2. I have two major Parts in my document. The first Part consists of sections (no chapters), with the second Part including chapters. I don't want chapters in the first section, for both inline effect (e.g. don't want new pages), and Table of Contents listing (i.e. don't want bold and no dots. What I _would_ like, if possible, if for the sections to be numbered similarly to chapters. i.e. 1 instead of 0.1, with the rest of its formatting remaining as a section. Is it possible to change the numbering of the sections (in the first Part only) without changing anything else? 3. In the second Part, I'd like the chapters in the TOC to be listed as "Chapter 1. Foobar" rather than "1 Foobar". i.e. I'd like it to be consistent with the inline chapter headings. Thanks in advance! Pete.
