Re: LyX 2.0.3 Released

Grateful for all the work on improving LyX, not to speak of creating it in the 
first place and keeping it going over the years.

That said, the View other formats button still greys out and becomes unusable 
after the first use. Was hoping that would be corrected in this update. Maybe 
next.

 What's new in LyX 2.0.3
 ===
 
 There have been several more updates to LyX's Sweave support. Work on this
 is expected to continue through the 2.0.x series.
 
 LyX 2.0.3 still requires a python 2 interpreter, but steps have been taken
 to avoid problems on systems where python 3 is the default python interpreter.
 A python 2 interpreter is now automatically detected and used. Additionally,
 byte-compiled python files changed their installation target. Distribution
 maintainers are encouraged to verify their patch sets.
 
 There have again been several updates to the tex2lyx conversion script. Not
 as many as with 2.0.2, but quite a few.
 
 
 What's new
 ==
 
 ** Updates:
 ***
 
 * DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
 
 - Add support for `knitr', an alternative for Sweave on R = 2.14.1
  (bug 7887).
 
 - Improved output of Comment notes for XHTML. These are now div's that are
  hidden by the default CSS.
 
 - New layout and template file for articles in the Journal of the Acoustical
  Society of America (JASA).
 
 - Speed up autosave a bit by not cloning child documents (bug 7923).
 
 - Don't use the first python binary in the PATH environment variable if
  this is not a version 2.x binary, but try to find a suitable one.
  Note that this mechanism triggers only if the binary is invoked exactly
  as python -tt, which is the way it is done internally.
 
 - Allow redirecting stderr in converters (other than stdout).
 
 - Add LaTeX commands for unicode symbols U+200c, U+2011, U+2017, U+2027 and
  U+202f to be used with non-unicode LaTeX backends (bug 7998).
 
 
 * TEX2LYX IMPROVEMENTS
 
 - Support for included external files via the templates
  - PDF pages
  - Chess diagram
  - Spreadsheet
 
 - tabular* environments are imported
 
 - Formal tables are now supported (bug 4553).
 
 - Support for change tracking commands (bug 4213).
 
 
 * USER INTERFACE
 
 - Added scalable LyX icon in svg format (bug 7919).
 
 - Clarify what the user can do when hyperref is provided by the document
  class (bug 6293).
 
 - Slightly reduced space around inset buttons, to make it clearer when
  there is a real space there (bug 7256).
 
 - Let inset-toggle work for very large documents (bug 7945).
 
 - Disable spell checker dialog for empty documents (bug 5585).
 
 - Display some commands from mathtools.sty natively (bug 7949).
 
 - Add the directory /usr/share/myspell as default location for dictionary
  lookup of hunspell spell checker backend (a common location on linux).
  Detect value change of preferences path to hunspell dictionaries
  to avoid the need for a restart.  This is related to bug 7884.
 
 - We now use the display string as a tooltip in the Outliner, if no
  other tooltip is given.
 
 - Show check mark on current math limit type in EditMath submenu.
 
 
 * DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION
 
 - Customization manual updated to reflect the features of LyX 2.0.x.
 
 - New Dutch user interface localization.
 
 - Updated Czech, French, German, Indonesian, Interlingua, Italian,
  Japanese, Nynorsk, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish and Ukrainian user
  interface localizations.
 
 - The Sweave manual was completely revised and is now also available in
  the menu Help-Specific Manuals (bug 7891).

Inhaltsverzeichnis-Problem

[Klaus Birnstiel]

Guten Tag,
liebe Lyx-Gemeinde,

ich bin ein ziemlicher Lyx-Anfänger (ich benutze Lyx 2.x auf Windows 7, 
64-bit) und versuche schon seit Tagen verzweifelt, eine 
Bibtex-Literaturdatenbank in mein Dokument einzubinden. Meine 
Literaturverwaltung (Citavi) exportiert eine für mich normal 
aussehende Bibtex-Datei, doch wenn ich diese über den entsprechenden 
Befehl in Lyx einbinde, erscheint zwar im Text ein entsprechendes Feld 
Bibtex-Literaturverzeichnis, dieses bleibt aber vollständig leer.


Ich habe sämtliche Software (auch MikTex) deinstalliert und 
neuinstalliert, doch es tut sich nichts. Fehlt vielleicht irgendwo ein 
entsprechendes Paket? -Ich bin für jeden Rat dankbar, denn das Problem 
ist relativ dringend...


Besten Dank und Grüsse

bibliography problem

[Klaus Birnstiel]

Hi there,

please excuse my earlier post in German - now in English: I have a 
terrible problem with Lyx at the moment: I a m trying to integrate a 
BibTex file as bibliography; however, Lyx doesn't seem to start Bibtex 
properly: there is no error code, but also, nothing happens: no 
bibliography shows up (although the source file seems to be ok), only 
some empty box.


I am running Windows 7 on two different computers. It seems that Lyx is 
not compiling properly, and not communicating with the bibtex thing 
properly; however, running the file on a friend's Linux system does show 
the biography properly.


Is there any idea what I can do about this? -It is, I have to say, 
really urgent...


Any help much appreciated!

Klaus

How did you install LyX on your system?
I don't know for sure if aspell support is available for LyX on Windows.
You can verify that in the preferences pane Language - spellchecking.
At least hunspell should be available and work out of the box.

bibliography problem

[Klaus Birnstiel]

Hi there,

please excuse my earlier post in German - now in English: I have a 
terrible problem with Lyx at the moment: I a m trying to integrate a 
BibTex file as bibliography; however, Lyx doesn't seem to start Bibtex 
properly: there is no error code, but also, nothing happens: no 
bibliography shows up (although the source file seems to be ok), only 
some empty box.


I am running Windows 7 on two different computers. It seems that Lyx is 
not compiling properly, and not communicating with the bibtex thing 
properly; however, running the file on a friend's Linux system does show 
the biography properly.


Is there any idea what I can do about this? -It is, I have to say, 
really urgent...


Any help much appreciated!

Klaus

How did you install LyX on your system?
I don't know for sure if aspell support is available for LyX on Windows.
You can verify that in the preferences pane Language - spellchecking.
At least hunspell should be available and work out of the box.

Grateful for all the work on improving LyX, not to speak of creating it in the

That said, the "View other formats" button still greys out and becomes unusable

next.

Re: making a Box: using floatrow package in place of default float

Jürgen helped me figure out what I was doing wrong: needed to also specify
IsPredefined = true (I had false). I also finally realised I was making the
rookie mistake of trying to specify my preamble inside of the Float
definition itself.

I offer up my chimera for anyone who might be interested. It does work
quite well, BUT! be warned that as best I can tell this is effectively
overriding float with floatrow in all instances, so some behaviour is going
to be modified.

* It took me a while to find that I needed to specify the \floatsetup
command (in floatrow form) to get table float captions back on top where
they belong.
(I've gone with \floatsetup[table]{style=plain,capposition=TOP})

* Use of [H] for floats (place here definitely) appears to trigger a
package clash with float/floatrow because, at a guess, [H] expects float to
be loaded. There is discussion of [H] in the floatrow manual but it's a
little beyond me so I've ignored that for now.

Please be gentle... :)

bibliography problem

[Klaus Birnstiel]

Hi there,

please excuse my earlier post in German - now in English: I have a 
terrible problem with Lyx at the moment: I a m trying to integrate a 
BibTex file as bibliography; however, Lyx doesn't seem to start Bibtex 
properly: there is no error code, but also, nothing happens: no 
bibliography shows up (although the source file seems to be ok), only 
some empty box.


I am running Windows 7 on two different computers. It seems that Lyx is 
not compiling properly, and not communicating with the bibtex thing 
properly; however, running the file on a friend's Linux system does show 
the biography properly.


Is there any idea what I can do about this? -It is, I have to say, 
really urgent...


Any help much appreciated!

Klaus

I think LyX 2.0.3 looks good now. The Sweave manual is accessible via
Help=>Specific Manuals. The LyX wiki has been updated as well.

I have only briefly looked at this, but I also see that Kintr is now a
module.

Did you actually try to "cite" anything (Einfügen > Literaturverweis)? If so, 
look in Dokument > LaTeX-Protokoll for suspicious warnings (and post them 
here, if you can't make sense of it).

Open View > Messages (Ansehen > Meldungen ansehen) and see if there are any 
reports about bibtex problems when compiling the file.

[Yihui Xie]

That is right. It is one thing in LyX that I most wanted to do, and I
was quite happy that it was accepted. I no longer have to tell other
users to use dark voodoos.

How did you install LyX on your system?
I don't know for sure if aspell support is available for LyX on Windows.
You can verify that in the preferences pane "Language" -> spellchecking.
At least hunspell should be available and work out of the box.
