 Well, as I mentioned before, what is there has worked for years, so
 something has changed in how that construct works in LyX.  The Insert 
 Box works fine as a replacement, though.

FYI I get the same problem with LyX 1.6, and googling comp.text.tex, I see 
many similar reports from plain LaTeX users. I cannot imagine LyX ever 
outputted different LaTeX with this very construct, so I have no idea what

For multiline formulae, you need to end it with \tag*{\qedhere}.  To enter 
this in LyX, you don't need to specify the braces, just enter \tag* and press 
space, then in the box that appears type \qedhere.


This also seems to work for single-line formulae, so what I do is use a math

the 
benefit that you can put something prettier in the LyX box for display while 
you're editing your document (e.g. try pasting in \text{ }\text{ }\text{ 
}\text{ }\square without the quotes).

By the way, this is a bug in AMS-LaTeX that they know about, but thought 
couldn't be fixed.  It can be fixed since the ntheorem package manages it (but 
has its own bugs, so isn't a good replacement sadly), which I've told the 
relevant person in AMS about.  She seemed interested, but I doubt they have the 
resources to fix it anytime soon.

In my tests (which I redid right now), a file .fig is converted by
default to a .png. You have to make sure that the ImageMagick package
is installed in your machine though, since it is used to convert the
images; otherwise eLyXer will output an error message which you may
not see if the conversion is done from within LyX.

If in doubt you can try to convert your file from the command line:

You have a space in the path to the file.  Does it work if you escape

 Or rename the file to eliminate it?  Linux sometimes doesn't play well

 Chris Menzel


 Unfortunately, it still does not work even when the path contains no
 spaces. Also, it does not work neither with relative or absolute paths. Most
 surpsisingly, it does not work even when I put the .sty file in the temp
 file used by Lyx...

 Do you have any idea how I can use a package that is not in the texmf tree?
 I just tried adding this package:

 http://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/share/texmf/tex/latex/Sweave.sty

 Do you have the same problem on your confugrations (mine is Lyx 1.5.6 on
 Ubuntu 10.4)?


Hi Mat,

I can offer no specific help, but I can confirm that loading packages
outside of the texmf tree works for me when you specify the absolute path. I
often use lines such as:
\usepackage{/home/stefano/Papers/The-paper-I-am-working-on/Package-file.sty}

I am on Ubuntu 10.10 with Texlive 2010 and Lyx 1.5.8.

Have you thought about putting your packages in the local branch of the
texmf tree, though? In my understanding,  ~/texmf is meant to be used for
personal packages, customized versions of standard packages, etc. I had the
habit of working with customized LaTeX code in the document´s directory, but
I then switched to the local branch of the texmf tree and I think it works
better. Less clutter, fewer possibilities of version conflicts, etcetera.

Cheer,

Stefano



 Thanks a lot

Subject: Proofs ending with mathematical formulas

Hello, 


I'm having a bit trouble to put the QED symbol in the right place when the 
proof 
ends with a multi-line mathematical formula.
When the proof ends with a single-line formula, I manually put a \qedhere at 
the 
end of the formula for the QED symbol to appear in the right place. If there 
is 
any better way to do this, let me know.

Re: export with elyxer and included xfig-images

In my tests (which I redid right now), a file .fig is converted by
default to a .png. You have to make sure that the ImageMagick package
is installed in your machine though, since it is used to convert the
images; otherwise eLyXer will output an error message which you may
not see if the conversion is done from within LyX.

If in doubt you can try to convert your file from the command line:

 For multiline formulae, you need to end it with \tag*{\qedhere}.  To
 enter this in LyX, you don't need to specify the braces, just enter \tag*
 and press space, then in the box that appears type \qedhere.

 This also seems to work for single-line formulae, so what I do is use a
 math macro for this and use that for all formulae at the end of proofs.
  This has the benefit that you can put something prettier in the LyX box for
 display while you're editing your document (e.g. try pasting in \text{
 }\text{ }\text{ }\text{ }\square without the quotes).

 By the way, this is a bug in AMS-LaTeX that they know about, but thought
