lyx on Mac - blurred fonts

[Tino Langer]

Hi all,

I just installed lyx 2.1.2 on OSX 10.9.5, using MacTeX in background. 

I’m a little bit confused because the font in the editor area and also the 
icons at the toolbar are very blurred. Are there any options I have to change 
to get antialiased fonts and clear icons?

Thanks a lot! - Tino

Glossary in Lyx

[Tino Langer]

Hello,

for my thesis I want to generate two indexes - one for 'abbreviations' 
and one for 'formula symbols'. Currentlty I use the build-in solution 
for nomenclature - so both types of entries are mixed in one index, 
because there no solution exist to generate two different indexes with 
this package.http://www.dict.cc/englisch-deutsch/abbreviations.html


Is it possible to use the glossaries-package with lyx _without_ 
exporting the lyx-file to .tex and to do all the latex-runs manually? 
Each hint helps - many thanks! additionally - I use lyx 2.0.5.1 running 
at Windows 7


Best regards - all the best! - Tino

'extended' glossary in lyx

[Tino Langer]

Hello,

I'm looking for a possibility to create a glossary with 3 columns 
(formula, short description, description) using lyx . It it possible to 
do this with lyx natively?


Googeling around I found the package glossaries - but using it I don't 
get a glossary generated. It seems there are calls missing to generate 
.gls-files on the base of .glo-files using makeindex.


perhaps a small example can help?

Re: import tex-file to lyx with containing ERT-information

[Tino Langer]

Hello Uwe,

I tried it with the following snippet of tex-code
...
\multicolumn{6}{|l|}{\cellcolor[gray]{0.7}HIER EIN TEXT}\tabularnewline
...

Here, \cellcolor[gray]{0.7} should be surrounded by an ERT. But in LyX 
it isn't it. Have it to be marked as one command?

tex2lyx generates TeX-code for all things it don't understand. So the

bibliography with a multipart document

Hello lyxers,

I try to split my lyx-document to use a multipart document. When I combine all 
subdocuments into one main document using the command include all the cite 
references placed in the subdocument are [?]. I tried the solution found here, 
but I get the same results:

http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/Unsorted#toc31

When I add an subdocument in the maindocument using the command input 
everything works fine. Is this a bug? I read that using the two insertation 
commands include and input results in different outputs (on the same page, 
on a new page).

I have some problems using Lyx 1.5.0beta. I want to use bibtex, but noch 
 bibliography is to see. And than I use a special style-file for my 
index, but this file seems not to be used.


Are there known problems with bibtex and makeindex?

Using the same file with Lyx 1.4.4 - everything works fine to me.

thanks - Tino

compiling lyx-file

[Tino Langer]

Hello,

first - many thanks to make it possible to install lyx 1.4.4 on Windows 
Vista! But now I have a problem to create an ps-file out of lyx. When I 
export my lyx-file to plain tex, I get a line


\usepackage[.ou]{fontenc}

which results in an error. The .ou definition is not found. How can I 
prevent the behavior?


many thanks - Tino

Re: compiling lyx-file

[Tino Langer]

sorry, it was my mistake. I do not know how, but in my lyx configuration 
was set the value .ou for Tex-Encoding. Setting it to T1 solves the 
problem.


nice day - Tino

problems installing lyx on windows vista

[Tino Langer]

Hello,

I just tried to install lyx on my windows vista. The first problem was 
to install miketex out of the bundle-installer of lyx 1.4.3-5 
(lyx-143-5-bundle.exe ) - an Windows API error occurs. a workaround for 
this problem was to install miktex 2.5 stand alone and refer to the 
existing installation while installing lyx.


But the second problem ist, that I can not start lyx. It seems to be 
there is no python available. But I thought this application comes with lyx?


Are there any howtos out there how to install lyx on Windows Vista?

many thanks - Tino

RE: problems installing lyx on windows vista

The MiKTeX shipped with the last installer is not Vista-ready. The next LyX
version comes out next 
week with an updated MiKTeX version.
Note that there are stil some restrictions to use MiKTeX under Vista:

ok - so I will wait - this is no problem :-)

 But the second problem ist, that I can not start lyx. It seems to be 
 there is no python available. But I thought this application comes with 
 lyx?

Don't you have a python.exe in LyX's \bin directory or somewhere else on
your computer?

No - I looked into the bin directory an found no python.exe file and I was
wondering

lyx and beamer

[Tino Langer]

Hello,

I want to use lyx to write some slides with the beamer package. Is it 
possible to do this? I use miketex 2.5, installed the beamer package, 
did a reconfigure of lyx but can not find beamer as document type. How 
to do this?


thanx, nice day - Tino

LyX is a great way to write beamer slides.  Assuming that you are using 
LyX 1.4.x, do the following.  Locate miktex root 
directory\tex\latex\beamer\lyx\layouts\beamer.layout, copy it, and put 
the copy in C:\Documents and Settings\your login id\Application 
Data\LyX1.4.x\layouts\.  Then start LyX, run Tools-Reconfigure, exit 
and restart LyX.  Beamer should show up in the list of document types.
