You can add the following command in the preamble:

There will be no indentation (and no number). You can also use

This is already very much. The default I know is ca. 10 symbols.

For a complete book, you need to re-use the footnote symbols, per page

Preventing newline after a LatexType = Command line

[Sue Ann Koay]

Hello,

I'm trying to create a layout file with a paragraph style that outputs
something like:

   \mycommand{arg1}{arg2}
   \mycommand{arg3}{arg4}

Something like the following almost works:

  Style MyCommand
LatexType   Command
LatexName   mycommand
LabelString Test:
RequiredArgs2
  End

However it likes to separate the MyCommand lines by newlines in the
latex output, e.g.:

   \mycommand{arg1}{arg2}


   \mycommand{arg3}{arg4}

I'd like to be able to prevent the extra newlines in between the
output, because this causes undesirable separation between lines in
the final display. Might someone know how this can be achieved? The
only thing I've been able to do is to turn on the ParbreakIsNewline
and PassThru options, but this is a rather annoying hack because it
also turns off the ability to use any of the LyX formatting commands
when inside this style. :-(

Help would very much be appreciated,

LyX2 R sweave

Re: 关于首行标点的求助

[Yihui Xie]

Apparently you are looking at the Chinese translation of intro.lyx
under doc/zh_CN/. The situation you saw (punctuations in the very
beginning of lines) was not really a big deal, because LyX means to be
WYSIWYM instead of WYSIWYG. It's not likely to happen in your final
PDF output provided you use a decent LaTeX package to handle the
Chinese document, e.g. ctex. These packages can correctly put the
punctuations in the end of lines.

So, Julio, I guess this is not a bug of LyX (at least not serious),
and I have confirmed that there are no spaces before the punctuations
in the above document. However, I would certainly appreciate if LyX
can be enhanced somehow to treat CJK documents differently with other
languages, because in CJK languages, we do not use spaces to separate
words, which can make the LyX document look rather ugly if there is
one space in a whole paragraph of several lines -- LyX treats this
paragraph as if it had three words so the space will be extremely
wide. But again, this is no big deal, since we can use inter-word
spaces \  instead of ordinary spaces   to make the document look
better (inter-word spaces do not get stretched).

Yihui

 It seems that punctuation signs are being pushed to the beginning of the
 next line, instead of being joined to the last word in the previous line.



 Tianjiao, I can confirm that this is due to an space put between the word
 and the punctuation sign. You should remove this space and everything will
 be alright. By the way, is there a ticket for this bug?

Sweave package. See sweave.lyx in examples.
Package(s) required: sweave->latex.
Modules excluded: LilyPond Book.
WARNING: Some required packages are unavailable!

How do I find out which packages is missing? (I think "sweave->latex" is a
converter not a package)

Re: 关于首行标点的求助

[Yihui Xie]

Apparently you are looking at the Chinese translation of intro.lyx
under doc/zh_CN/. The situation you saw (punctuations in the very
beginning of lines) was not really a big deal, because LyX means to be
WYSIWYM instead of WYSIWYG. It's not likely to happen in your final
PDF output provided you use a decent LaTeX package to handle the
Chinese document, e.g. ctex. These packages can correctly put the
punctuations in the end of lines.

So, Julio, I guess this is not a bug of LyX (at least not serious),
and I have confirmed that there are no spaces before the punctuations
in the above document. However, I would certainly appreciate if LyX
can be enhanced somehow to treat CJK documents differently with other
languages, because in CJK languages, we do not use spaces to separate
words, which can make the LyX document look rather ugly if there is
one space in a whole paragraph of several lines -- LyX treats this
paragraph as if it had three words so the space will be extremely
wide. But again, this is no big deal, since we can use inter-word
spaces "\ " instead of ordinary spaces " " to make the document look
better (inter-word spaces do not get stretched).

Regards,
Yihui

The bug tracker is at http://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome.   
(As I type
this, lyx.org is unresponsive, but hopefully it will return from  
its coffee

break soon.)


Alternatively, lyx-devel is just fine to check what the devels think.
Please try to give some more info than just the screenshot: what OS,
what LyX and LaTeX version, what kind of document, what triggers the
crash, etc.

Re: LyX2 R sweave

[Yihui Xie]

I guess this converter needs Rscript to be in your PATH variable.
Furthermore, you'd better put Sweave.sty in your texmf tree.

Copying a table column crashes LyX

[Andrew Parsloe]

I created a table and made some settings then, in the right-click menu 
chose More... > Copy Column and Lyx crashed with the message


LyX has caught an exception ...
Exception: iconv problem in iconv_codecvt_facet initialization

To reproduce, just create a table and try to copy a column using the 
context menu (or Alt-M C C).
