 For the time being, you can use the external elyxer (works even
 without a LyX installation):
 
 # elyxer --help
 
   * Usage: elyxer.py [options] [filein] [fileout]
   * Convert LyX input file filein to HTML file fileout.
   * If filein (or fileout) is not given use standard input (or output).

Aspell not found

[Julio Rojas]

Dear all. I have just compiled/installed Lyx 2.0 on Ubuntu 11.04. I have
also installed Aspell, but Lyx cannot find it, even after reconfiguration. I
install Enchant and Abiword, just in case, but nothing. Can somebody give me
a tip on the good direction?

Regards.

Re: Aspell not found

[Julio Rojas]

I've found this answer:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/63955

Shouldn't ./configure give you a very big warning on this issue?

Re: moderncv template error to compile

[Manolo Martínez]

Hello, Uwe

 
 Assure that you are using LyX 1.6.8 or newer. If the problem persists with 
 this LyX version, please 
 send me your file.

I'm using LyX 2.0.0. I have problems with the file Hélène sent and
similar ones, and I have been sidestepping them in the manner I describe
in my previous post.

In an earlier message --
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg86608.html -- I
posted a MWE and the error log.

I should point out that I'm only having these problems with moderncv
since I moved from Ubuntu to Fedora 15, so I'm guessing it's got
something to do with the LaTeX distribution (I'm using TL 2010 now)

Cheers,
Manolo

Re: Aspell not found

[Julio Rojas]

Thanks Stephan. I have installed them and recompiled. Everything is working
perfectly now. I was just wondering if a warning should be included at the
end of the ./configure step, just to remind you to include the spell
checker.

BTW, I'm now working on Ubuntu and the jumping spell checker problem hasn't
appeared yet.

  Sorry, don't know the answer to that one. You could try something like:
 \setlength{\skip\footins}{2cm plus \textheight}
  which allows LaTeX to stretch that length. But I don't know if it would

Re: plotting over graph in Lyx / beamer presentation

Hi Phil and Liviu,

thanks for your ideas - interesting reading.

I found a solution using tikz:

Based on 
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/15990/draw-red-x-over-an-external-image-using-pgf-tikz
, I developed the solution attached - as described in the link, the
image is placed in a node, and one can draw.

The nice thing: the inserting of the picture can be done in LyX!

I will look into the pstricks solution, as it sounds also quite easy -
could you post a small example?

Thanks,

When the document was first written, a long time ago, images with wrap-around

Some classes aren't descended in this way, and one has to try to
figure out which class they might otherwise be like. In this case, I'd
say article, since the class does not give you chapters. (This is
slightly odd, because it does define a chapter counter and do various
things with it, but it never gets used, in fact.)

The biggest question, in a way, is: What sectioning commands does the
class define? If you search for \section, you will find them, all
grouped together.

LyX cache

[Påvel Nicklasson]

I use LyX 2.0 on Ubuntu 11.04. When I did some work in my /home folder I  
realised that my .lyx folder is very big. Most of the space is taken by  
the subfolder cache which is over 5GB big. It mostly contains images  
from my projects in .eps and .png formats. Is it safe to empty the cache  
subfolder? Is there a way to flush it from within LyX? Such a big cache  
building up can be an issue on small systems.

Theorem 1. Then when I want to add a Lemma is writes Lemma 2 instead of
Lemma 1. It is increasing the numbers for all of these formats such as
definition, remark ,.. .

I just installed Lyx 2 and facing this problem.

PDF will not reload

[Hafney]

Hi,

I'm at the end of my rope with adobe acrobat. I'm using adobe acrobat reader 
10. I can successfully generate a pdf but I cannot update the pdf after I 
make changes to my .lyx document.  How do I fix this? (I'm using windows). 
I read some speculation that this could be a bug in adobe but that 
Lyx 2.0 solved the problem.  But I just installed Lyx 2.0 and the 
problem persists.  I read http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/PDF (near bottom) but 
still cannot solve my problem. I've now abandoned adobe all together and 
am using Sumatra (as advised in the wiki entry.)  

Could I fix this problem with acrobat?

Or did I make the right choice by dumping it? 

If that was the right choice, what is the best pdf viewer to use with Lyx? 
Any guidance will be much appreciated. Thanks.

Hafney

You need to remove the Theorems (AMS) (or Theorems) module before you can 
add the Theorems (AMS, Numbered by Type) one.

Note that numbering all theorems/lemmas/etc together is not a problem, just a 
matter of taste. (I certainly prefer it... it's annoying hunting for Lemma 15, 
when all you know is that this page has Theorem 12 and Definition 18. Which way 
do I look?)

It's safe to remove. I don't think there's any way to do it from within

lyx 2.0 thesis template generate too much vertical space before and after the equation

[Ruida Yun]

Hi all,

I'm writing my dissertation using the thesis template offered  by the
new Lyx2.0.  The Latex preamble shipped with the thesis template
somehow messed up the fleqn option when the line space is set to
double. There is way too much vertical space before and after the
equation.

If I delete the preamble or remove the fleqn option, the vertical
space looks normal. I'm not sure what causes the problem and hope
someone could help me out here.

The latex preamble looks like this:

% increase link area for cross-references and autoname them
\AtBeginDocument{\renewcommand{\ref}[1]{\mbox{\autoref{#1
\newlength{\abc}
\settowidth{\abc}{\space}
\AtBeginDocument{%
\addto\extrasenglish{
 \renewcommand{\equationautorefname}{\hspace{-\abc}}
 \renewcommand{\sectionautorefname}{sec.\negthinspace}
 \renewcommand{\subsectionautorefname}{sec.\negthinspace}
 \renewcommand{\subsubsectionautorefname}{sec.\negthinspace}
 \renewcommand{\figureautorefname}{Fig.\negthinspace}
 \renewcommand{\tableautorefname}{Tab.\negthinspace}
}
}

% in case somebody want to have the label equation
%\renewcommand{\eqref}[1]{equation~(\negthinspace\autoref{#1})}

% that links to image floats jumps to the beginning
% of the float and not to its caption
\usepackage[figure]{hypcap}

% the pages of the TOC is numbered roman
% and a pdf-bookmark for the TOC is added
\let\myTOC\tableofcontents
\renewcommand\tableofcontents{%
  \frontmatter
  \pdfbookmark[1]{\contentsname}{}
  \myTOC
  \mainmatter }

% make caption labels bold
\setkomafont{captionlabel}{\bfseries}
\setcapindent{1em}

% enable calculations
\usepackage{calc}

% fancy page header/footer settings
\renewcommand{\chaptermark}[1]{\markboth{#1}{#1}}
\renewcommand{\sectionmark}[1]{\markright{\thesection\ #1}}

% increase the bottom float placement fraction
\renewcommand{\bottomfraction}{0.5}

% avoid that floats are placed above its sections
\let\mySection\section\renewcommand{\section}{\suppressfloats[t]\mySection}

It's safe to remove. I don't think there's any way to do it from within  
LyX. Probably there should be, and a limit cache to N MB choice, too.

 Hi,

 make changes to my .lyx document.  How do I fix this? (I'm using windows).
 I read some speculation that this could be a bug in adobe but that
 Lyx 2.0 solved the problem.  But I just installed Lyx 2.0 and the
 problem persists.  I read http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/PDF (near bottom) but
 still cannot solve my problem. I've now abandoned adobe all together and
 am using Sumatra (as advised in the wiki entry.)

 Could I fix this problem with acrobat?

 Or did I make the right choice by dumping it?

 If that was the right choice, what is the best pdf viewer to use with Lyx?
 Any guidance will be much appreciated. Thanks.

Set up a cron job. Have it check the size of the cache and remove as 
much as it needs to remove (starting with the older files) to get it 
down to some level you specify. Shouldn't be too hard.

LyX for Mac OSX 10.6.7?

[Samuel Turk]

To whom it may concern:


I have never used LyX before but I've been told it is a very good program. I 
would like to install it on my Mac OSX 10.6.7

I found LyX available on Apple's web site here: 
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/unix_open_source/lyx.html

However, the download failed. Would you direct me to where I can find step by 
step instructions to get LyX properly downloaded and running on my Mac?

Thanks in advance,

Re: LyX for Mac OSX 10.6.7?

[Sandro Portmann]

That's no problem, if you never used LyX. Just go to the LyX homepage 
(www.lyx.org), where you can download the program. You're also finding a 
manual, how to install it, because you need a TeX distribution to running LyX

Re: Lyx 2 problem

[Jim Oldfield]

Hi Reza,

Please reply to the list in future (use reply to all in your email client), 
so 
that all users can help with your problem, and see any suggested solutions.

 Unfortunately IEEE Tran journals do not accept the way you explained. 

Ah ha, I hadn't thought of that. This turns out to be the key point. It seems 
that in LyX, if you select an IEEEtran document class, then the theorem layout 
as chosen *as if* you had selected the theorems module yourself, so there's no 
way to unselect it.

It could be that this is because this is what the IEEEtran latex class does and 
LyX is just showing it through. Or, it could be a quirk of LyX. I don't know 
because I've never used this document class.

Re: Lyx 2 problem

[Reza Azarderakhsh]

Hi, sure.

But this problem exists only in Lyx 2. and in Lyx 1.6 it is OK for numbering
and working well. Then it seems that the problem is from Lyx side.

The nice thing: the inserting of the picture can be done in LyX!

Some classes aren't descended in this way, and one has to try to
figure out which class they might otherwise be like. In this case, I'd
say article, since the class does not give you chapters. (This is
slightly odd, because it does define a chapter counter and do various
things with it, but it never gets used, in fact.)

The biggest question, in a way, is: What sectioning commands does the
class define? If you search for \section, you will find them, all
grouped together.

LyX cache

[Påvel Nicklasson]

I use LyX 2.0 on Ubuntu 11.04. When I did some work in my /home folder I  
realised that my .lyx folder is very big. Most of the space is taken by  
the subfolder cache which is over 5GB big. It mostly contains images  
from my projects in .eps and .png formats. Is it safe to empty the cache  
subfolder? Is there a way to flush it from within LyX? Such a big cache  
building up can be an issue on small systems.

Fwd: Lyx 2 problem

[Reza Azarderakhsh]

Hi I am using IEEEtran template. When I want to write a Theorem, it inserts
Theorem 1. Then when I want to add a Lemma is writes Lemma 2 instead of
Lemma 1. It is increasing the numbers for all of these formats such as
definition, remark ,.. .

I just installed Lyx 2 and facing this problem.

Would you please help with that.

Thanks

Dear Reza, you should use a module specially for that. Go to Document -

I hope this works.

PDF will not reload

[Hafney]

Hi,

I'm at the end of my rope with adobe acrobat. I'm using adobe acrobat reader 
10. I can successfully generate a pdf but I cannot update the pdf after I 
make changes to my .lyx document.  How do I fix this? (I'm using windows). 
I read some speculation that this could be a bug in adobe but that 
Lyx 2.0 solved the problem.  But I just installed Lyx 2.0 and the 
problem persists.  I read http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/PDF (near bottom) but 
still cannot solve my problem. I've now abandoned adobe all together and 
am using Sumatra (as advised in the wiki entry.)  

Could I fix this problem with acrobat?

Or did I make the right choice by dumping it? 

If that was the right choice, what is the best pdf viewer to use with Lyx? 
Any guidance will be much appreciated. Thanks.

You need to remove the Theorems (AMS) (or Theorems) module before you can 
add the Theorems (AMS, Numbered by Type) one.

Note that numbering all theorems/lemmas/etc together is not a problem, just a 
matter of taste. (I certainly prefer it... it's annoying hunting for Lemma 15, 
when all you know is that this page has Theorem 12 and Definition 18. Which way 
do I look?)

lyx 2.0 thesis template generate too much vertical space before and after the equation

[Ruida Yun]

Hi all,

I'm writing my dissertation using the thesis template offered  by the
new Lyx2.0.  The Latex preamble shipped with the thesis template
somehow messed up the fleqn option when the line space is set to
double. There is way too much vertical space before and after the
equation.

If I delete the preamble or remove the fleqn option, the vertical
space looks normal. I'm not sure what causes the problem and hope
someone could help me out here.

The latex preamble looks like this:

% increase link area for cross-references and autoname them
\AtBeginDocument{\renewcommand{\ref}[1]{\mbox{\autoref{#1
\newlength{\abc}
\settowidth{\abc}{\space}
\AtBeginDocument{%
\addto\extrasenglish{
 \renewcommand{\equationautorefname}{\hspace{-\abc}}
 \renewcommand{\sectionautorefname}{sec.\negthinspace}
 \renewcommand{\subsectionautorefname}{sec.\negthinspace}
 \renewcommand{\subsubsectionautorefname}{sec.\negthinspace}
 \renewcommand{\figureautorefname}{Fig.\negthinspace}
 \renewcommand{\tableautorefname}{Tab.\negthinspace}
}
}

% in case somebody want to have the label equation
%\renewcommand{\eqref}[1]{equation~(\negthinspace\autoref{#1})}

% that links to image floats jumps to the beginning
% of the float and not to its caption
\usepackage[figure]{hypcap}

% the pages of the TOC is numbered roman
% and a pdf-bookmark for the TOC is added
\let\myTOC\tableofcontents
\renewcommand\tableofcontents{%
  \frontmatter
  \pdfbookmark[1]{\contentsname}{}
  \myTOC
  \mainmatter }

% make caption labels bold
\setkomafont{captionlabel}{\bfseries}
\setcapindent{1em}

% enable calculations
\usepackage{calc}

% fancy page header/footer settings
\renewcommand{\chaptermark}[1]{\markboth{#1}{#1}}
\renewcommand{\sectionmark}[1]{\markright{\thesection\ #1}}

% increase the bottom float placement fraction
\renewcommand{\bottomfraction}{0.5}

% avoid that floats are placed above its sections
\let\mySection\section\renewcommand{\section}{\suppressfloats[t]\mySection}

Set up a cron job. Have it check the size of the cache and remove as

LyX for Mac OSX 10.6.7?

[Samuel Turk]

To whom it may concern:


I have never used LyX before but I've been told it is a very good program. I 
would like to install it on my Mac OSX 10.6.7

I found LyX available on Apple's web site here: 
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/unix_open_source/lyx.html

However, the download failed. Would you direct me to where I can find step by 
step instructions to get LyX properly downloaded and running on my Mac?

Re: LyX for Mac OSX 10.6.7?

[Sandro Portmann]

That's no problem, if you never used LyX. Just go to the LyX homepage 
(www.lyx.org), where you can download the program. You're also finding a 
manual, how to install it, because you need a TeX distribution to running LyX

Re: Lyx 2 problem

[Jim Oldfield]

Hi Reza,

Please reply to the list in future (use reply to all in your email client), 
so 
that all users can help with your problem, and see any suggested solutions.

 Unfortunately IEEE Tran journals do not accept the way you explained. 

Ah ha, I hadn't thought of that. This turns out to be the key point. It seems 
that in LyX, if you select an IEEEtran document class, then the theorem layout 
as chosen *as if* you had selected the theorems module yourself, so there's no 
way to unselect it.

It could be that this is because this is what the IEEEtran latex class does and 
LyX is just showing it through. Or, it could be a quirk of LyX. I don't know 
because I've never used this document class.

Re: Lyx 2 problem

[Reza Azarderakhsh]

Hi, sure.

But this problem exists only in Lyx 2. and in Lyx 1.6 it is OK for numbering
and working well. Then it seems that the problem is from Lyx side.

Can you please send a screenshot where you have too much space. I cannot see a difference between

Note the space around equations depends if the equation is in an own paragraph or not. If it in an

I'm using LyX 2.0.0. I have problems with the file Hélène sent and
similar ones, and I have been sidestepping them in the manner I describe
in my previous post.

In an earlier message --

posted a MWE and the error log.

I should point out that I'm only having these problems with moderncv
since I moved from Ubuntu to Fedora 15, so I'm guessing it's got
something to do with the LaTeX distribution (I'm using TL 2010 now)

Cheers,
Manolo

Thanks Stephan. I have installed them and recompiled. Everything is working
perfectly now. I was just wondering if a warning should be included at the
end of the "./configure" step, just to remind you to include the spell
checker.

BTW, I'm now working on Ubuntu and the jumping spell checker problem hasn't

Re: plotting over graph in Lyx / beamer presentation

[Rainer M Krug]

Hi Phil and Liviu,

thanks for your ideas - interesting reading.

I found a solution using tikz:

Based on 
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/15990/draw-red-x-over-an-external-image-using-pgf-tikz
, I developed the solution attached - as described in the link, the
image is placed in a node, and one can draw.

The nice thing: the inserting of the picture can be done in LyX!

I will look into the pstricks solution, as it sounds also quite easy -
could you post a small example?

Thanks,

Rainer

When the document was first written, a long time ago, images with wrap-around 
text was giving awful results. I haven't tried without ERT and specific 
graphics placement commands for a long time, but things might have changed?

The big problem with pstricks is that it doesn't work with pdflatex.
Should work with xetex, though.

What document class is this? In any event, you can try:
\flushbottom
in your preamble.

to create a layout

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello,

I wished t create a layout from a cls file. Following the instructions,
I should find the class from which it is descendant but I cannot get it.
This is the begenning of the cls file:

\NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e}
\ProvidesClass{tMPH2e}[2009/09/07 v3.6 Molecular Physics LaTeX2e document 
class]

\newif\if@restonecol
\@twosidetrue\@mparswitchtrue
\@twocolumnfalse
%%
\def\jobtag{Molecular Physics}
\newdimen\draftrule
\draftrule=0pt
\newif\ifdraft
\draftfalse
\newif\ifprinter
\newif\ifappendix\appendixfalse
%
\newdimen\trimrule
\trimrule=.1pt
%
\newdimen\draftrule
\draftrule=0pt
%
\DeclareOption{draft}{\setlength\overfullrule{5pt}\draftrule0.1pt\global\drafttr
\DeclareOption{printer}{\setlength\overfullrule{0pt}\trimrule0pt\global\printert


Some ideas ?

Thanks

Some classes aren't "descended" in this way, and one has to try to
figure out which class they might otherwise be like. In this case, I'd
say "article", since the class does not give you chapters. (This is
slightly odd, because it does define a chapter counter and do various
things with it, but it never gets used, in fact.)

The biggest question, in a way, is: What sectioning commands does the
class define? If you search for \section, you will find them, all
grouped together.

Hello,

Is there an option to make a find inside a math formula ?

Thank.

LyX cache

[Påvel Nicklasson]

I use LyX 2.0 on Ubuntu 11.04. When I did some work in my /home folder I  
realised that my .lyx folder is very big. Most of the space is taken by  
the subfolder "cache" which is over 5GB big. It mostly contains images  
from my projects in .eps and .png formats. Is it safe to empty the cache  
subfolder? Is there a way to flush it from within LyX? Such a big cache  
building up can be an issue on small systems.


Best Regards
Påvel

It looks like you're using divvy or SizeUp or a similar tool.
http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/7365

Please, can you stop it and try again?

Re: Lyx 2.0.0 OSX crashes

[Murat Yildizoglu]

Thanks Stephan!
I have indeed totally forgotten this problem that we have discussed on the
users list.

Yes, I am using Divvy, but I am not trying to use it on the Lyx Window. Even
without this, can it crash Lyx?
The bug report does not show any potential solution. Am I stuck between
going back to 1.6 and dropping Divvy?
