How to insert footnote in bibliography
This is an obvious question but I can't seem to find the answer. I am using bibtex to organize my references. For one entry in the list of references I want to add a footnote (which should appear at bottom of page where the reference appears). I mean, the reference should look something like this: Author (1999). blah, blah [footnote number here] Is this possible? -- William Seager University of Toronto Scarborough http://www.utsc.utoronto.ca/~seager

Name of table of contents in headers
Hi all. This is more a latex problem than a lyx problem, but since
I'm using lyx I thought I'd ask here.
I have a complex document in which the table of contents
spans several pages.
My problem is that in the header the name of the table of contents,
(which is Contents) appears capitalized and emphasized (italics).
I found a bizarre way to turn off the capitalization in the header by
adding:
\let\stdtoc\tableofcontents
\renewcommand*\tableofcontents{{%
\renewcommand*\MakeUppercase[1]{##1}\stdtoc}}
to the preamble.
But the header remains emphasized.
I *can* turn off the emphasis by using this command:
\renewcommand{\contentsname}{\em Contents}
but then, of course, Contents appears emphasized
in the main body of the text.
Or, if I add the table of contents with this:
\renewcommand{\contentsname}{\textnormal {Contents}}\tableofcontents{}
then the header is perfect, but I lose the bold face I want
Contents to be in in the body of the text.
The headers throughout the rest of the document are
perfect and I don't want to mess with them.
It's a minor problem but it is bothering me.
TIA,

looking in the new shortcuts menu in the prefrences window but I didn't

C-Enter is working as usual for me (LyX 1.6.0-1, Win XP).
In the shortcuts menu, try searching on Ctrl+Return. In the CUA
binding, at least, it's bound to newline-insert newline. Are you maybe
using a customized binding file? You might also try opening the
minibuffer (Alt-x) and, with the cursor in a math inset, type
newline-insert newline in the minibuffer and hit return. It should add
a new line to the math formula.
/Paul
C-Enter works in ordinary text for me, but in a math formula it shifts the
whole formula down one line rather than breaking the line (I am using
1.6 on linux by the way). (As a workaround that might be of use, add
this to your document preamble: \newcommand{\bb}{\\} and then
use \bb to break your math formulas - this does seem to have some
weird formatting side effects under some conditions however.)

lyx 1.6rc4 ultra slow to load document
Hi all. I'm not sure this is a problem or just reflects the unfinished state of lyx 1.6. But I have a large-ish document (about 140 pages when output to pdf). On my old slow laptop running lyx 1.5.6 (under gentoo linux btw) this loads in 2 seconds. On my fast, dual core amd64 architecture (also gentoo) the same document takes 37 seconds to load.

Bill.
sorry - I should have looked harder. The answer is
in a very old post here. In the preamble, add
\newcommand{bb}{\\}
then you can just type \bbspace in the formula
and the line breaks.
Lyx doesn't justify the formula before the break however,
which would be ideal
