Re: Bibtex question: van von de di della etc Name: HowTo?

[Jürgen Spitzmüller]

2014/1/13 Paul A. Rubin:

 Jürgen,

 By parse properly, do you mean that the use of braces may override the
 design of the .bst file, or is there more to it (such as creating problems
 with spacing)? My usage patterns in the past may have been somewhat
 atypical. I would write for journals that do not have a .bst file (and may
 not accept LaTeX submissions), so I would use a convenience .bst file
 (such as plainnat) and override the formatting of name prefixes using
 braces.


Well, you just fool bibtex. If properly used, BibTeX knows who a given name
is constructed. It knows whether a name has a von-part, junior-part, and
that a name might consist of several first names etc. If you write
{{Johann Wolfgang von}{Goethe}}
bibtex thinks the first name is Johann Wolfgang von, which is of course
wrong.
It might result in the output you want just now, but if you have to follow
different conventions, your database is not usable anymore.

If you write
{Johann Wolfgang von Goethe}
bibtex reads:
Surnames = Johann Wolfgang
von-part = von
Last name = Goethe

and you can instruct it to output the name the way you want (wrt order,
abbreviation of some parts etc.).


 I found a somewhat helpful PDF file at
 https://www.tug.org/TUGboat/tb27-2/tb87hufflen.pdf; at least it clarifies
 von v. Von.


I recommend
http://mirrors.ctan.org/info/bibtex/tamethebeast/ttb_en.pdf
http://mirrors.ctan.org/biblio/bibtex/base/btxdoc.pdf



 I'm not entirely sure if there is a definitive proper choice
 between von Kleist, Heinrich and Kleist, Heinrich von, although I
 personally prefer the former.


In the database, it clearly needs to be von Kleist, Heinrich or Heinrich
von Kleist. See Oren Patashnik's original bibtex manual.

In the output, it's a conventional thing. In German texts, both is common.
Personally, I also prefer von Kleist, Heinrich, but sorted under K, not
v. Note, though, that people often omit the von-part in the text, talking
of Kleist, Goethe etc. This can be controlled via BibTeX as well, if
you use the proper syntax in the database.

beamer Slides without counting pagenumbers in branches

[Uwe Ade]

Hello,

my presentation have several slides which are add-ons for me but not necessary 
for students . The add-on slides are put in branches. 
Is it possible to avoid that the pages in the branches are not counted for 
slide numbers?

for example

Slide 1 Pagenumber 1
Slide 2 Pagenumber 2
Slide 3 Pagenumber 3
Branche
Slide 4 No Pagenumber
Slide 5 No Pagenumber
Banche end
Slide 6 Pagenumber 4
Slide 7 Pagenumber 5

and so an ..

  Thanks for this. Is there a site which shows examples for various
  styles which give an output like
  
  Iglesia, de la
  
  in the references.
  
  I used Kluwer style and the output is
  
  de la Iglesia
 
 I am not aware of any. There are several bibtex style comparision sites
 online, but none uses a von-example.
 
 However, tweaking an existing style file should not be too hard. For
 instance, in Kluwer, you'll find:
 
 FUNCTION {format.authors}
 { author empty$
 {  }
 { {vv~}{ll}{, jj}{, f.} author format.names }
   if$
 }
 
 FUNCTION {format.editors}
 { editor empty$
 {  }
 { {vv~}{ll}{, jj}{, f.} editor format.names
   editor num.names$ #1 
 {  (eds) * }
 {  (ed.) * }
   if$
 }
   if$
 }
 
 Where you have:
 
 vv = von-part (spelled-out)
 ll = Last name (spelled-out)
 jj = junior-part (spelled-out)
 f. = first name (abbreviated).
 
 So, without testing, I suppose the following change will do the trick:
 
 FUNCTION {format.authors}
 { author empty$
 {  }
 { {ll}{, jj}{, f.}{~vv} author format.names }
   if$
 }
 
 FUNCTION {format.editors}
 { editor empty$
 {  }
 { {ll}{, jj}{, f.}{~vv} editor format.names
   editor num.names$ #1 
 {  (eds) * }
 {  (ed.) * }
   if$

   if$

Figure float in multipage box

[Frank Leone]

Dear all,

I am writing down my PhD dissertation and would like:

- A box
- Multipage
- With a figure float in there

I almost succeeded, using a frameless multipage box, but when I insert a
figure float inside the box I get:

! LaTeX Error: Not in outer par mode.

This is true both in 2.0 and 2.1. When I use a figure wrap float
environment, it however does work! But then it wraps, which I don't want it
to do.

Does anyone have an idea:
- Whether this is intended behavior?
- And how I can fix it/work around it?

Thanks a lot in advance, I appreciate it,

best,

Frank

Re: beamer Slides without counting pagenumbers in branches

[Paul A . Rubin]

If you add \addtocounter{framenumber}{-1} in a TeX inset (formerly known as
ERT) in the body of each instructor-only slide, the student slides will be
numbered as you wish. This will not prevent the instructor slides from
displaying slide numbers; it will just prevent those numbers for advancing.
So, for instance, if you use a theme that displays current slide number and
total number of slides in the footer, you will obtain something like the
following:

Student slide (1 of 4)
Student slide (2 of 4)
Instructor slide (2 of 4)
Student slide (3 of 4)
Instructor slide (3 of 4)
Instructor slide (3 of 4)
Student slide (4 of 4)

To suppress the footer (and hence the page numbering) in the instructor
slides, make them PlainFrame rather than Frame AND put in the LaTeX command
to tweak the frame number.

Quick question regarding copy/paste and cut/paste

[A Choi]

To whom it may concern,

If I have e^{\delta T}F_{0,T} together, and want to change the order of
them, I can no longer select F_{0,T} inside the math environment and do
ctrl+x then move my cursor to the beginning of e^{\delta T} and then press
ctrl+v. What happens is when I press ctrl+v, the F_{0,T} gets pasted
outsidethe math environment.

Changing the shortcut of selection-paste to ctrl+v mentioned
herehttp://www.latex-community.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=19t=19635
does
not fix this problem.
Changing the shortcut of clipboard-paste to ctrl+v does not fix this
problem either.

(C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX2.9\tex\latex\biblatex\blx-dm.def)

Package biblatex Info: Trying to load biblatex style data model...

Package biblatex Info: ... file 'authoryear.dbx' not found.

Package biblatex Info: Trying to load biblatex custom data model...

Package biblatex Info: ... file 'biblatex-dm.cfg' not found.


and also


Package biblatex Warning: Please (re)run Biber on the file:

(biblatex) testing-natbib

(biblatex) and rerun LaTeX afterwards.


I wonder if MikTex is the culprit?


Thanks


Kamarul

 Did take care of that, Stefano,



 Your example is working.



 However, if I try my document, I get on the terminal output under the
 biber part this:

 That does not look like the output from biber. Are you sure you are
 looking at the latex log in lyx, and selected the bibtex option from the
 drop down menu?




 I wonder what

 Running: xdg-open PB-Biber.pdf

 means.


 xdg-open is just the program that will try to find a suitable program to
 open the pdf file, in your case that will most likely be okular (or
 acroread, depending on your setup).

Well, you just fool bibtex. If properly used, BibTeX knows who a given name
is constructed. It knows whether a name has a von-part, junior-part, and
that a name might consist of several first names etc. If you write
{{Johann Wolfgang von}{Goethe}}
bibtex thinks the first name is "Johann Wolfgang von", which is of course
wrong.
It might result in the output you want just now, but if you have to follow
different conventions, your database is not usable anymore.

If you write
{Johann Wolfgang von Goethe}
bibtex reads:
Surnames = Johann Wolfgang
von-part = von
Last name = Goethe

and you can instruct it to output the name the way you want (wrt order,
abbreviation of some parts etc.).

I recommend

http://mirrors.ctan.org/biblio/bibtex/base/btxdoc.pdf

In the database, it clearly needs to be "von Kleist, Heinrich" or "Heinrich
von Kleist". See Oren Patashnik's original bibtex manual.

In the output, it's a conventional thing. In German texts, both is common.
Personally, I also prefer "von Kleist, Heinrich", but sorted under "K", not
"v". Note, though, that people often omit the von-part in the text, talking
of "Kleist", "Goethe" etc. This can be controlled via BibTeX as well, if
you use the proper syntax in the database.

beamer Slides without counting pagenumbers in branches

[Uwe Ade]

Hello,

my presentation have several slides which are add-ons for me but not necessary 
for students . The add-on slides are put in branches. 
Is it possible to avoid that the pages in the branches are not counted for 
slide numbers?

for example

Slide 1 Pagenumber 1
Slide 2 Pagenumber 2
Slide 3 Pagenumber 3
Branche
Slide 4 No Pagenumber
Slide 5 No Pagenumber
Banche end
Slide 6 Pagenumber 4
Slide 7 Pagenumber 5

and so an ..

However, the citing style has'nt changed (see de Paula), which actually 
does'nt matter
e.g.
FRQ was proposed by de Paula et al. 2006; Correa and Bell-Pedersen 2002. 

but all the references in the Bibliography show no author,
 but only:
: 1964, Circadian rhythms during and after three months in solitude 
underground, J Physiol 174, 217–231.

I tried to find other places in the bst file which could be responsible, but 
did not find any so far.

This is handled in another function (format.lab.names.full). Just change
the occurrence of {vv~} there, if you need.

Thanks a lot, Jürgen, 
it works just as it should. It is not as difficult, but one has to know where 
the changes have to be made.

These are your changes.

Figure float in multipage box

[Frank Leone]

Dear all,

I am writing down my PhD dissertation and would like:

- A box
- Multipage
- With a figure float in there

I almost succeeded, using a frameless multipage box, but when I insert a
figure float inside the box I get:

! LaTeX Error: Not in outer par mode.

This is true both in 2.0 and 2.1. When I use a figure wrap float
environment, it however does work! But then it wraps, which I don't want it
to do.

Does anyone have an idea:
- Whether this is intended behavior?
- And how I can fix it/work around it?

Thanks a lot in advance, I appreciate it,

best,

Frank

Re: beamer Slides without counting pagenumbers in branches

[Paul A . Rubin]

If you add \addtocounter{framenumber}{-1} in a TeX inset (formerly known as
ERT) in the body of each instructor-only slide, the student slides will be
numbered as you wish. This will not prevent the instructor slides from
displaying slide numbers; it will just prevent those numbers for advancing.
So, for instance, if you use a theme that displays current slide number and
total number of slides in the footer, you will obtain something like the
following:

Student slide (1 of 4)
Student slide (2 of 4)
Instructor slide (2 of 4)
Student slide (3 of 4)
Instructor slide (3 of 4)
Instructor slide (3 of 4)
Student slide (4 of 4)

To suppress the footer (and hence the page numbering) in the instructor
slides, make them PlainFrame rather than Frame AND put in the LaTeX command
to tweak the frame number.

Quick question regarding copy/paste and cut/paste

[A Choi]

To whom it may concern,

If I have e^{\delta T}F_{0,T} together, and want to change the order of
them, I can no longer select F_{0,T} inside the math environment and do
ctrl+x then move my cursor to the beginning of e^{\delta T} and then press
ctrl+v. What happens is when I press ctrl+v, the F_{0,T} gets pasted
outsidethe math environment.

Changing the shortcut of selection-paste to ctrl+v mentioned
here
does
not fix this problem.
Changing the shortcut of clipboard-paste to ctrl+v does not fix this
problem either.

best,

Choi
