When I want to put a table in a landscape page, here is what I do:
a) right click the float table
b) select rotate sideways.

Making a Rotated Table Landscape

2011-12-29 Thread Jane Shevtsov
Hi all,

I have a rotated table and need to put it on a landscape page. How do I do
this? I tried the \begin{landscape} tag suggested at
http://www.latex-community.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1771 but LyX
complained that the file was corrupted.

Thanks,
Jane

Re: paragraph inside environments and other issues

2011-12-29 Thread Paul A . Rubin
First issue: insert a separator environment between the two problems.

Second issue: try nesting the subenvironment within the proof. I don't have LyX
handy, but there are menu and (I believe) tool bar entries for increasing the 
depth of an entry. I don't know if a paragraph can be nested, but enumerations
etc. can.

Conflict between hanging module and primed symbols

2011-12-29 Thread Andrew Parsloe

Hullo Richard,

I recently tried to use the hanging.module with a document and got a 
Latex error (input stack size capacity exceeded). Some experimenting 
showed there was a conflict between hanging.sty and the use in maths 
mode of a prime embellishment to a symbol (e.g. to indicate feet and 
inches, as in a person's height: 5'8'', five feet eight inches). The 
prime can occur anywhere in the document to trip the error, not 
necessarily in a hanging paragraph itself.


However I notice your module is in two parts, the if-part applying if 
hanging.sty is available and the else-part if it isn't. If I rename 
hanging.sty so that the else-part of the definition is used, the 
document compiles successfully.


Since the prime is a frequently used symbol in maths and as an 
abbreviation for feet and inches (and angular minutes and seconds), I 
suggest omitting the if-part from your module and retaining only the 
else-part. (I've edited my own copy to this effect.)


Incidentally, entering in maths mode 5^\prime 8^{\prime\prime} (rather 
than 5'8'') causes no problems -- hanging.sty copes with that.

paragraph inside environments and other issues

2011-12-29 Thread Bogdan

Hi all,

How do I insert consecutive "Problem" entries?

Also, is there a way to insert a (sub)paragraph inside an environment 
such as Proof? How about a custom defined section style?


Let me explain.

Let's say I'm using the IEEEtran class (although others exhibit the same 
issue). I click on the "Problem" to insert a problem and type in some 
text. I'd like to insert a new problem immediately below the previous 
one. I might be missing something very easy but I can't seem to manage 
... it keeps making the new paragraph part of the previous Problem. If I 
insert a different section/environment after the Problem, e.g. a Proof, 
then I can insert a new Problem, but I'd like consecutive Problems.


For the second issue: In Latex I can very well insert a (sub)paragraph, 
or some other user defined section, inside a Proof environment or the 
likes. However, if I try this in LyX then the entire Proof turns into a 
Paragraph. How can I easily do this without resorting to typing in Latex 
code (CTRL-L) while inside a Proof?


Would defining additional layout style in LyX allow this? I'd like to 
preserve the Proof's environment QED square symbol at the end. Any tips?


Cheers,
Bogdan.




LyX slow with remote filesystems

2011-12-29 Thread Adam Sacarny
Hi Everyone,

I am editing a document in LyX (Mac OS X Lion, LyX 2.0.2) that is stored 
locally but references several files -- included TeX snippets and some graphics 
stored as EPS -- that I keep on a remote server. The files are on a drive that 
I mounted through sshfs using the latest version of OSXFUSE and the program 
Macfusion.

The trouble is, whenever the drive is mounted, LyX slows down a ton. On slow 
connections it's completely unusable. LyX lags whenever I type, and I notice 
that at the same time, network traffic spikes. (Note that all of the included 
files have preview turned off.)

I'm not really a programmer, but it seems like every time I hit a key, LyX 
checks the included files to see if they've been updated. But I don't really 
know! 

Has anyone else experienced this behavior and is it possible to fix it? So far 
I've worked around it by keeping the remote filesystem unmounted but I need to 
access other files on the server now so that solution no longer works.

Thank you!
Adam Sacarny

Can you send a minimal example file? I tried to reproduce with your recipe, 
but LyX does not crash here.

Crash with language change in combination with utf8 & float tableau

2011-12-29 Thread Peter Baumgartner
Hello,

Using LyX 2.0.2 I experienced reproducible crashes with the following
combination:

-> encoding: utf8
-> module: linguistics with tableau environment
-> language change inside text (command: \foreignlanguage)

The system crashes during pdflatex compilation with a tableau environment in
*combination* with a \foreignlanguage command *and* utf8 encoding.

(I was using language ngerman and changed a word to
\foreignlanguage{english}.)
