Removing Biblatex?
I'm trying to find a citation style for my thesis that works for me. To do that, I've tried out various things, including Biblatex. The attempt showed me I would rather not use this. But now there seems no way back? I have included biblatex according to the guide here: http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Biblatex And now there seems no way of letting Lyx forget about biblatex. I've deleted the module-file, removed the module in Document settings and removed every latex header part involved, then reconfigured. I've even rebooted the computer. Still, when I now add a normal bibtex bibliography, I get a number of errors, including LaTeX Error: Can be used only in preamble. pointing to \bibliography. So I think Lyx still thinks that biblatex is active. Does that mean I cannot avoid using biblatex anymore except maybe by re-installing Lyx (which takes several hours, I'd really rather not do this!)? Can anybody please help me? Any advice at all?

Re: Removing Biblatex?
Huh. Ok, I just restarted it to check, and now it works. Weird.
Thanks for your suggestion, though. :)

Dear Lastalda, check at the end of the document, because you might
have a \printbibliography command that you haven't eliminated.
Obviously, I guess you have already remove the \usepackage{biblatex}
used to declare your intention on using biblatex.
Regards.

Footnotes in longtables
Hello! I'm trying to insert a footnote in a longtable. The embedded objects manual as well as several sources on the web tell me this should not be a problem, or that's how I read them. But when I do it, the little number shows up but the footnote text doesn't. (Footnotes outside the table work fine, though!) Can anyone help me, please? I can supply a minimal file with the problem, but as I've sent out this question a week ago with the minimal file attached and got no replies, I'm afraid that the list didn't like me attaching a file. But I'm happy to send it upon request. Thank you! Lastalda -- Zu sagen Hier herrscht Freiheit ist immer ein Irrtum oder eine Lüge. Freiheit herrscht nicht. - Ehrich Fried, Herrschaftsfreiheit -

Headlines starting new pages
I'm writing my diploma thesis in Lyx, using the class koma(book). Especially in the Materials Methods part, I often have sections ans subsections that go: *headline *shortish paragraph *table In this cases, Lyx often puts the headline and paragraph on one page and the table on the next (sometimes it even only puts the headline on the old page). (Screenshot: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8/lastalda/LyxProblems/pagebreak.png) I would much rather have the headline start a new page in such cases. Is there a way I can define this behaviour in the latex header, or do I have to use manual pagebreaks whenever this irks me? Thank you in advance for any help! Lastalda

Longtables
This is probably a stupid question, but I'm still fairly new to Lyx. I want to use a longtable in my thesis. From what I've read across various sources, I need to rightclick on the table, click through to the options = long tables setting and then tick off the little box saying use longtable. But for some reason I cannot tick it, it's greyed out so un-selectable. (Screenshot: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8/lastalda/longtable.png) Do I need to use some specific package to be able to access the longtable option? Or some special setting? (I'm using the koma(book) class, if that is relevant.) Thank you in advance for your help! Lastalda
Re: Longtables
The table is not within a float. (I already found the don't put longtables in floats advice before.) Anything else I might be doing wrong? Would making a short version of the file showing the problem help? 2011/10/5 Rainer M Krug r.m.k...@gmail.com: On Wed, Oct 5, 2011 at 2:51 PM, Lastalda Felina lasta...@googlemail.com wrote: This is probably a stupid question, but I'm still fairly new to Lyx.

Re: Headline spacing irregular?
Problem solved, thanks to the mailing list. :) Here's the answer that solved it: [quote]Most likely you changed the spacing in the paragraph settings. Make sure you select the offending text and click Edit Paragraph Settings and set the Line spacing back to default.[/quote] -- View this message in context: http://lyx.475766.n2.nabble.com/Headline-spacing-irregular-tp6840087p6858484.html Sent from the LyX - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Table width
I'm trying to write a thesis with Lyx and am using tables (some within floats, some without). 1. Is there a possibility to set the tablewidth to \textwidth for the whole document as default? Like adding something to the latex header? (And does this have to be done seperately for tables within and tables without floats?) 2. In some cases I would like to use one adjustment column to achieve this. (Meaning I have 4 columns and want columns 1,2 and 4 to be as wide as they need to be according to their content, and colum 3 to have the width that is needed to bring the whole table to \textwidth.) Is there a variable or something I can insert in ERT into the 3rd column so it would do that? Or do I really have to adjust the columnwidth manually in every table? Example picture below; I would like to know what to insert for the fill space http://lyx.475766.n2.nabble.com/file/n6835621/tablewidth.png Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!
