How to select multiple bib entries with same author (2nd delivery)
Dear LyX users, I have been trying LyX 1.5.0beta1 for some days now. I have one problem which did not exist in 1.4.x or before with literature citations, using external bibtex files. If one author (or any word) is listed in more than one entry of my literature file (a pretty normal situation), in 1.4.x or above I used to type the author name or key word in the Find: field and repeatedly click on next to search in the whole bibtex file until the document/citation containing that string/author/word until the desired one was selected; then I inserted the desired citation. With the new citation dialog, there is no Next button; in turn, the typed string is matched automatically in the bibliography record list. Unfortunately, however, only the key is searched for. This is rather inconvenient, as the key is often related to the first author name, while often one looks for one article by the name of another author, or maybe one word in the title, and would like to select which article he would like to cite among those satisfying the criterion of containing the typed string. Therefore, I would like LyX 1.5.0beta1 to search in the _whole_ bibtex database as LyX did before 1.5. Is there any way to customise it to change the default behaviour? Or is this a bug? (If it is, please consider this message as a bug notification!). Thanks a lot for all the nice work you have been doing! Regards from Marco Bravi

LyX 1.5.0beta1: How to select multiple bib entries with same author
Dear LyX users, I am a longtime (since 0.7 or so) user of LyX. In my Department, some colleagues and I are pushing for LyX adoption. I have been trying LyX 1.5.0beta1 for some days now. It's very nice and stable (I am using it for a complex document with about 250 pages--very satisfied so far). I have one problem which did not exist in 1.4.x or before with literature citations, using external bibtex files. If one author (or any word) is listed in more than one entry of my literature file (a pretty normal situation), in 1.4.x or above I used to type the author name or key word in the Find: field and repeatedly click on next to search in the whole bibtex file until the document/citation containing that string/author/word until the desired one was selected; then I inserted the desired citation.

Slightly OT: OVERLAYING PostScript pages
Dear LyXers, I have a problem. I frequently have to write letters on my company's letter paper. This paper is produced by MS Word. All of my colleagues who decide to write on it use a template and then print it. I use Lyx and, given that it is not easy to code its aspect in LyX I have a postscript file of it which I print, then feed back the paper in the printer and overlay the text of the letter on it. I would be interested in overlaying the content of a PostScript file onto another. This way I could easily accomplish my purpose. Do you know of any simple technique to accomplish this? All my searches, so far, have failed. Thanks a lot in advance! Marco Bravi -- Marco Bravi [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dip. Ing. Chimica tel. +39-06-44585587 / 612 v.

Flush left equations with NO left indent, et al.
Dear Lyx users, I have been using (and advocating) LyX for a number of years now (since version 0.7 actually). Lyx has grown up beatifully and, if sometimes I still miss some features, I am glad of what it already offers and of its ease of use. I am now facing the problem of writing a paper with flush-left equations. I am aware that both a fleqn option in the Layout-Document menu and a fleqn package exist, but both leave an unwanted left indent. Any means to get rid of it? Another question. The paper should end up as a camera-ready paper written in Times-new-roman (I am using Times--is it appropriate? I think nobody will ever notice...) and a number of text elements sizes (such as those of the title and of the section and subsection texts) are different from one another and specified in points. Is there any way to say to a paragraph: you end up written in 12pt and you, instead, end up in 10pt? Thanks a lot in advance for your help! Marco Bravi -- Marco Bravi [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dip. Ing.

Disabling printing bibliography note field
Dear LyXers, I know that this is a pretty plain LaTeX issue, but I could not find an answer to this question on all the 4 claqssical LaTeX manuals I own.. I use the "note" field in BibTeX files as a reminder of the main issue in the publication, so that when I browse the list (e.g., within LyX Insert-Citation) I can make the right citation choice. Unfortunately, however, the note gets printed at the end of the reference item, which is NOT wanted. I could strip the *bib files before sending the files to the editor, but this seems to me awkward and inconvenient. I imagine that there must be some switch, to be put in the LaTeX preamble to disable this, but could not find it by browsing the books or the *bst and *sty files themselves. Or, possibly, I am making the wrong use of this field, which should be printed, period (but this seems unlikely to me). Any hints from knowledgeable people???

L. 1.1.6fix1: No figures on file-close and then file-open???
Dear LyXers, I am using LyX 1.1.6fix1. I am rather satisfied with it--also thanks to this deeply collaborative mailing list. I have two misbehaviours to point out, though: 1. When LyX is first started, a document is correctly opened and all figures are regularly shown. If I close it (file-close) and then re-open it, they won't appear anymore (only its placeholder and name will be shown, as it occurs when gs work is underway but... there is NO gs working!) 2. In some cases, after a copy 'n' paste the selection color appears somewhere else in the document window. Scrolling is all what's required to make it go away--no other misbehaviour occurs.

Avoid hyphenation in table cells
Dear LyXers, I am trying to work out a medium complicacy table. In order to have a decent layout, I would like to turn hyphenation off *inside* the table (and only _inside it_).

Dear LyXers, I seem not to be able to constrain the width of a column to an assigned value in a long table (i.e., one that exceeds the length of one page) using LyX 1.1.6fix1. The table editor correctly shows that this special column is 5 cm wide an left aligned but nothing saying this is saved in the LaTeX file and the column dows not come out width-constrained as desired.

Multiple citation problem with LyX 1.1.6fix1

Is there any fix for this, other than typing LaTeX by hand the right way? Tnx in advance by Marco Bravi -- Marco Bravi [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dip. Ing. Chimica tel. +39-06-44585587 / 612 v.

Locale problems with XForms 0.89 ???
Dear LyXers, I have been using LyX, as well as writing programs using the XForms myself, for quite a while under the LC_ALL=it_IT locale specifier. Until XForms version 0.88, all was OK. Since XForms 0.89, I started to observe that all programs using them would be writing floats using the COMMA as the decimal separator, yielding a number of problems (in LyX, big problems with the preferences, as the font sizes are written as x,00 instead as x.00 and this is misinterpreted when reading--many font sizes being reset to zero...). I solved the relevant problems like this: In my programs: by calling setenv("LC_ALL", "POSIX", 1); In lyx: by aliasing LyX as lyx="export LC_ALL=POSIX;lyx" which, unfortunately, also changes the language used in the menus, as well as a number of bindings I was used to. Is there a "specialized" locale only for numerals? limiting the locale change to LC_NUMERIC=POSIX does NOT work! Thanks al lot in advance! Marco Bravi -- Marco Bravi [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dip. Ing.

Problems with Right address and My letter layouts
Dear LyXers, I am using LyX 1.1.6 and I am having problems with the "Right address" and "My address" layouts, language "italian" (the application to a competition whose deadline is in one week.). I would like to put the destination address of my letter on the top-right corner of the page. I used to use "Right address" for this. Unfortunately, this yields a number of errors with the new version of LyX (actually NOT using the "letter" document type). I tried to use the letter document type--now "right address" is not anymore in the list, so I choose "My address" that ends up where I want but: 1. If I choose language "italian", it complains that I have not switched to "english"; NO PAIN: I select english before entering in "My address" and re-select italian upon exiting from it, but... ops!

Link failed for LyX on SPARC

How to put floats at the end of an article, max 1 per page...
Dear LyX users, I am trying to have all the (figure and table) floats of an article at the end of the text, max one per page, in the final revision of the manuscript (as required by the editor). I have inserted the floats in the text, since it is convenient to have them appear in the text during the writing and first corrections of the article on paper. I am trying to put all of them at the end of the paper by use of switches/simple commands (that can be commented out when unneeded), in order to speed up the change from the editing layout to the final editor-format layout. Unfortunately: - the "p" float placement control switch simply causes floats to be put on the earliest separate page (and thus being numbered inside the text) - the \setcounter{totalnumber}{1} which should set the maximum number of floats appearing on one page, irrespective of their placement inside the page, seems totally inneffective; I have tried putting this latter directive both in the preamble and in one of the first document lines, marking it as a LaTeX paragraph. Do you have any suggestion? Thanks a lot in advance, Marco Bravi I am using tetex-latex 0.9 on a Red Hat linux 5.2 box, kernel 2.0.36. -- Marco Bravi [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dip. Ing.
