This indicates it's not a LyX problem but something wrong with your
LaTeX setup. I'm not sure what the couldn't open style file aip.bst
is indicating. You said you installed it; are you sure? Try opening
the Terminal and typing:
kpsewhich aip.bst
That should return a path to the file if LaTeX can find the file and
nothing otherwise. If you do get a bath to that file, check to make
sure you have read permissions on it. The other possibility I can
think of is that the file is somehow corrupted.
When installing extra files for LaTeX, the standard place to put them
on Mac is ~/Library/texmf/. So .bst files would generally be put in ~/
Library/texmf/bibtex/bst. Having done that, run sudo
texhash (giving your password), and it *should* work.
Bennett
This is the path that I found the aip.bst file in
/usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.texlive/bibtex/bst/base/aip.bst
I looked and I dont have a ~/Library/texmf/bibtex/bst folder
Could there be somewhere else that I can put the file so LaTeX can see it?

TOC font changes, adding dots between heading and page
Hi all, Im trying to tweak a few things in my Table of contents. 1) I need to change how Lyx makes all new sections(ie chapter, list of tables, list of figures, etc) in bold font and the corresponding listed page number is in bold as well. I need to make the whole thing in normal font. 2) I need to have the dots that go from section to page number ie: 1.1Background... 1 Apply to all items in the table of contents. Right now, the main chapter titles do not have these dots, nor do items such as list of tables, list of figures etc. Only subsections within each chapter have them, and I need to include them for all entries. 3) Finally, I need to change the title to Table of Contents, not contents I am using Lyx 1.44 on a mac with the report class. Thanks, Charles

I don't know the reason, but you can add the Table of Contents, List
of Figures, List of Figures, and BibTeX bibliography to the Table of
contents using
\usepackage{tocbibind}
in the preamble. Or if you just want to add one or the other then you can
add
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{List of Figures}
next to the List of Figures callout in ERT.
Bob
So I did that, and it worked. But now my page numbers are off... For the
first sections(acknowlegments, list of tables, list of figures,
abbreviations, etc) I have roman numerals counting. Then the counter starts
at 1 once the text of Chapter one starts. Well now my roman numerals are
off by one page. It says the LOT starts at vi, but it really starts at vii
and so all the other ones are off by one... Is this due to the tocloft

I'm not following. Have you separated your addcontentsline commands?
Here's an example as you've described number acknowledgments, lof, and

issue.

Yes, your sample is correct in how I would like it. But, my TOC is two
pages long, so the counter skips the second page of the TOC and labels it
as the first page of the LOT(the next section) So my TOC is on page v and
vi, and the LOT starts at vii, but is being listed as starting at vi. I
hope I explained it better..
Editing spacing in List of Tables/Figures
Hi all, I have a thesis with lots of figures and tables. Im using report
class and the default method in the List of Figures/Tables is to group
figures/tables together by chapter, double space, and then group the
figures/tables for the next chapter. ie
Fig 1.2 blah blah
Fig 1.3 Blha ldskjf
Fig 2.1 ... Blahsdh
Fig 2.2 ldsajfkls
I need to remove that space and have single spacing consistently throughout
the LOT and LOF. I tried to edit this using the Layouts package in my
preamble, but Im doing something wrong with the syntax and getting errors:
\usepackage{layouts}
\makeatletter

Can someone tell me what Im doing wrong or suggest an alternative method?

is indicating. You said you installed it; are you sure? Try opening
the Terminal and typing:
kpsewhich aip.bst
That should return a path to the file if LaTeX can find the file and
nothing otherwise. If you do get a bath to that file, check to make
sure you have read permissions on it. The other possibility I can
think of is that the file is somehow corrupted.
When installing extra files for LaTeX, the standard place to put them
on Mac is ~/Library/texmf/. So .bst files would generally be put in ~/
Library/texmf/bibtex/bst. Having done that, run "sudo
texhash" (giving your password), and it *should* work.
Bennett
This is the path that I found the aip.bst file in
/usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.texlive/bibtex/bst/base/aip.bst
I looked and I dont have a ~/Library/texmf/bibtex/bst folder
Could there be somewhere else that I can put the file so LaTeX can see it?

(You can always create that folder! -- Your LaTeX installation will recognize it once you do.) Did you check to see if you have read permissions to aip.bst? Are you sure your copy of that file is not corrupted? Bennett Ok, I created that directory and moved the file there. How do I check to see if I have permissions and/or if the file is corrupted? I was a little confused on how to download it from CTAN, so I just copied the text into a new tex file and saved it as aip.bst, is this ok or did I do it wrong?

Having done all this (and sudo texhash), does it work? If not, go to CTAN, find the aip.bst file, and download it directly to your hard drive. (To do this, -click the link, and select "Save link as ...", entering "aip.bst" as the file name.) Put that in ~/Library/texmf/bibtex/bst, run sudo texhash, and see if it works. Bennett I downloaded aip.bst again(twice actually) and saved it in my bibtex folder I created. ran sudo texhash, and still nothing... LaTeX gives me this error now when I run bibtex..

TOC font changes, adding dots between heading and page
Hi all, Im trying to tweak a few things in my Table of contents. 1) I need to change how Lyx makes all new sections(ie chapter, list of tables, list of figures, etc) in bold font and the corresponding listed page number is in bold as well. I need to make the whole thing in normal font. 2) I need to have the dots that go from section to page number ie: 1.1Background... 1 Apply to all items in the table of contents. Right now, the main chapter titles do not have these dots, nor do items such as list of tables, list of figures etc. Only subsections within each chapter have them, and I need to include them for all entries. 3) Finally, I need to change the title to Table of Contents, not contents I am using Lyx 1.44 on a mac with the report class. Thanks, Charles

I think it looks great as is... The tocloft package will do everything that you need. Grab the package documentation and read through it. It took me quite a while to figure out how to add dotted leaders to chapters or sections. This was a requirement for my thesis also. I've attached a simple example of how to add dotted leaders and change the name of the table of contents. Consult the tocloft documentation for the other requirements. Cheers, Bob Lounsbury Thanks bob, that got the name change and the dots correct, but for some reason my List of Tables and List of Figures got dropped from the Table of contents when I added your tex into my preamble... Is there any reason for this, or do I need to add something else? Charles

I don't know the reason, but you can add the Table of Contents, List
of Figures, List of Figures, and BibTeX bibliography to the Table of
contents using
\usepackage{tocbibind}
in the preamble. Or if you just want to add one or the other then you can
add
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{List of Figures}
next to the List of Figures callout in ERT.
Bob
So I did that, and it worked. But now my page numbers are off... For the
first sections(acknowlegments, list of tables, list of figures,
abbreviations, etc) I have roman numerals counting. Then the counter starts
at 1 once the text of Chapter one starts. Well now my roman numerals are
off by one page. It says the LOT starts at vi, but it really starts at vii
and so all the other ones are off by one... Is this due to the tocloft
package?

I'm not following. Have you separated your addcontentsline commands?
Here's an example as you've described number acknowledgments, lof, and
lot in roman and the chapter 1 in arabic. There is no page number
issue.
Bob
Yes, your sample is correct in how I would like it. But, my TOC is two
pages long, so the counter "skips" the second page of the TOC and labels it
as the first page of the LOT(the next section) So my TOC is on page v and
vi, and the LOT starts at vii, but is being listed as starting at vi. I
hope I explained it better..
Editing spacing in List of Tables/Figures
Hi all, I have a thesis with lots of figures and tables. Im using report
class and the default method in the List of Figures/Tables is to group
figures/tables together by chapter, double space, and then group the
figures/tables for the next chapter. ie
Fig 1.2 blah blah
Fig 1.3 Blha ldskjf
Fig 2.1 ... Blahsdh
Fig 2.2 ldsajfkls
I need to remove that space and have single spacing consistently throughout
the LOT and LOF. I tried to edit this using the Layouts package in my
preamble, but Im doing something wrong with the syntax and getting errors:
\usepackage{layouts}
\makeatletter
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
\makeatother
Can someone tell me what Im doing wrong or suggest an alternative method?

gettting lyx/mac to see .bst files
Hi all, I just downloaded an AIP(american inst. of physics) style .bst file to use for my thesis. I am trying to get lyx to see it for my bibliography. I installed it in my bibtex/bst/base folder (at least I think I did..) and ran texhash as sudo. I then did the tex reconfigure and lyx shows the aip.bst in the list of bibtex files. So I click on my bibtex insertion in the document and choose aip, run lyx to get a pdf and nothing.. The entire bibliography is just left out. Did I miss something, or is there a way to see if its the file that is messed up? Thanks Charles

The afterpage package works for me. See the attached example (created

Try comp.text.tex
There is an easy way to do this.
I vaguely remember that you need the pagestyle command to
come sufficiently late on the page, certainly *after*

\thispagestyle{empty} ?

Hi, Alan. Yes I tried that, and I also tried \usepackage{afterpage} in my
preamble and then \afterpage{\thispagestyleempty}} and neither work. They
still leave the first page of the bib with a page number... Is there any
way that I can create a sep file of my bib(with refs in order) and remove
the first page there?
Im out of ideas...

The afterpage package works for me. See the attached example (created
with 1.5rc2). Of course you'd have to insert your own references.

Try comp.text.tex
There is an easy way to do this.
I vaguely remember that you need the pagestyle command to
come sufficiently late on the page, certainly *after*
any \chapter like commands.

Alan, can you give a little more info on the comp.text.tex? I am new to
LaTex and Lyx so I am still learning and figuring things out..

Spoke too soon. This does indeed work with koma-book, but he's actually
using report, which also seems to clobber afterpage. I got this to work
with report: \renewcommand{\bibname}{\thispagestyle{empty}Bibliography}
in ERT before the page break leading to the bibliography.
That did it!! Thank you very very much for all the help, good learning
experience...
Thanks again,

I guess inserting in ERT \thispagestyle{empty} just after the bibliography
inset should work. A cleaner but more complex solution would be to
redefine
the bibliography environment.
Hi, I tried to do that originally, but it doesnt seem to work. That just
makes the last page of the bib. un-numbered, but not the first as I need..

Try the following. Put \usepackage{afterpage} in your preamble. (This
presumes you have the tools package, but I think that's a standard part
of all LaTeX distros.) At the end of the text on what will be page 85,
put \afterpage{\thispagestyle{empty}} in ERT just before the page break.
I think that will do it for you.

Hi paul, I tried that but it still isnt working... I didnt get any errors
so I assume I have the package. Is there anything else that I can try?
Another possibility that I wouldnt mind is to make a separate file somehow
that has my bib in it and removing the first page there. I am turning in a
hard copy, not a digital one, so any way to get that first page of my bib
un-numbered will work...
Thanks again for all the help

Removing first page number on bibtex generated bibliography
Hi all, I am writing my thesis in Lyx 1.44(OS X). I need to have all the page numbering for the first pages of a new section(ie Table of Figures, first page in chapter, etc) removed. I have managed to remove them all, except the first page of my bibliography. I am using a bibtex generated bibliography and I have no idea how to remove the page numbering. I am writing the paper in Report class. Is there anyway to remove the page numbering and have it start re-counting again on the 2nd page of the bib? Thanks, charles

bibtex page numbering
Hi all,
I am writing my thesis using a pretty basic set up in Lyx 1.4.4 for Mac.
I used Bibdesk for Mac to manage my bibl. entries and just entered a bibtex
bibliography that Bibdesk created at the end of my document. Everything is
fine except for two things: 1) All the first pages of a new section(ie
first page of TOC, first page of new chapter, etc) have no number and the
numbering starts on the next page. I used \thispagestyle{empty} to
accomplish this and it worked fine. After the last page of text in the
thesis, I did a page break and then put \thispagestyle{empty} before
inserting my bibtex bibliography, but the page number still appears on the
first page of the bib... How can I remove this?
Secondly, I had bibtex insert the bibliography in the TOC, but it writes
bibliography in lower case letters, and all my other chapters etc are
written in all caps. How can I change what bibtex calls the bibliography in
the TOC?
Thanks in adavance,
Charles
