RE: Conflict between hyperref and shortcaption trick!

2001-10-17 Thread Zailong Bian

Thanks.

What I tried to do is to export to latex and edit the stuff by hand.  I
change the order of the usepackages and the inserted code from that trick.
I discovered that I need to load the trick code last.  If I put it in
stdlayours.inc or scrreport.inc, that code will be loaded before hyperref,
which causes the problem.

So what I did:  split the trick mentioned, one part goes to scrreprt.inc:

Style ShortCaption
 CopyStyle Caption
 LatexName setshortcaption
 LabelString   SCaption:
 LabelType Static
End

And all the actual code goes to latex premeable (menu).  After that, the
problem is gone.

I will try to put hyperref at the end to see if that works too.

the hyperref package should always be load at the last package.

RE: Problem with the combined latex and eps figure when using tex2pdf.

Hi.

tex2pdf is really nice!  It has the hyperref stuff in there and
automatically inset the clickable links and TOC.  Actually, all the citation
references, cross references and pagenumbers  are clickable in Acrobat
Reader. 

Viewpdf will generate a plain pdf, which is boring and has no advantage over
plain postscript.

Character wildness, help!

2001-05-25 Thread Zailong Bian

Hi.

I am using komascript report class to write a thesis.  I have all the
chapters included in a master documents.  I setup all the packages, page
margins, and all other pains...But I got a weird problem:

All the character combination fi becomes the english curency pound sign.
All the two characters fl becomes a circle over a cross when I view PS!
What's happening!!??  Is that an Easter Egg thing that one of the
programmer actually put in lyx? :-)  While if I copy and paste that
paragraph into a new lyx document, all becomes normal!

Anyone has a clue on how to fix this?

Thanks a lot!!

Updata PS C-S-T w/ cua.bind never worked?

2001-04-07 Thread Zailong Bian

I am running latest version of lyx on Mandrake 7.2 Linux. The key binding
file is cua.bind.

But the bind "C-S-T", which is supposed to update postscript never worked. I
am wondering why.  I changed it to "M-T", which works fine.

Could it be my "weird" keyboard?  I use a Dell Inspiron 3500 Laptop. Is
there anyway to figure out why "S-C-T" is not working?

Thanks.

TOC without page numbers?

2001-04-07 Thread Zailong Bian

Hi.

I need to have a TOC-like list but without the page numbers and the dotted
lines, how is that possible?

One a seperate issue: If I have a multipart document, the TOC is always
empty when I don't have any section in the root file.  Is it possible to add
someone kind of "Smart TOC" function in lyx, so it will go through all the
files included and generate a TOC in lyx?

And something appears to be a BUG:  if I open a multipart doc w/ empty TOC,
then I open another doc with non-emepty TOC without closing the first
multipart doc, the TOC of second doc will remain after I close the second
doc.  Oh...I hope I describe this right!

Put Draft on every graph?

Hi.

How do you put a word "Draft" in size of 36 points on every graph in a
document?  These graphes are in figure floats. It is not really practical to
add that to the graph individually because there are so many pictures.  It
is possible to add that to every page, but it would be nice to just add to
each graph/float.

Thanks.

Hi.

I have found the answer to my question about how to make bibliography part
after each chapter in a multipart document appear as a section* but not
chapter*.  I have to remove the extra options I used in document popup.
"bibtotoc" is the one. Then add latex lines
"\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{numberline{}WhatEverNameYouWant}".

The part "...numberline{}" helps to put an indent otherwise the toc looks
ugly.

Hope this is helpful.

Mutiple Documents and chapterbib.

Hi.

I am using Koma-script/report to write a thesis. I tried to create a master
file then include several other files as each chapter.  I also wanted to
have references in each chapter. As I understand, I cannot use latex
preamble in the included lyx files since they will be ignored.  And from the
chapterbib document, I need to include the bibtex file in each included
file.  That's want  I did, but it didn't work.  The citation in the text
shows only "[?]" and the references are not listed at the back either. If I
insert the bibtex list at the end of root file, the references will be
listed correctly, but I still see only "[?]" in the text. I didn't see any
error messages either.

I don't know what I did wrong, anyone can help with this?

It's actually not unreasonable.  You can `input' a tex file, which is
often useful for specialized formatting that cannot be done in LyX,
and `include' a lyx file.

I have all the key field in my *.bib files entered with my
special/strange format.  But now I cannot force lyx to display the key I
entered as label in the generated phostscript file.  I tried alpha,
apalike, etc and none  of them works.  Anyone knows a style that
produces this format?

In short, I need to use my specified key as label, not other field, or
combination of fields in bibtex entries.

Thanks.

Footnote doesn't end in the same page.

2000-10-16 Thread Zailong Bian

Hi, 

I noticed that some footnotes will continue in other pages in footnote area.
If there is no footnote in next page, then the footnote will continue from
the next page that has footnote.  This is not a good thing...

Anyone knows how to fix it?  I mean force footnote finish in one page no
matter how long it is?

Thanks.

Overcite in footnote?

2000-09-14 Thread Zailong Bian


Hi. I tried to use the overcite style.  It looks good in text, but not
in footnote.  Sometimes I need to say things like, "Please see [1] for
blah..and see [3] for blah" in footnote.  But they appear like
superscript in footnote.

So is there a way to make it look like superscript in text but normal in
footnote or margin note?

I have to admit I am really uncomfortable to edit the style files.  But
if you are kind enough to give me some hints I will try to do it.

Thanks and have a nice day!

How to use gziped ps file?

2000-09-05 Thread Zailong Bian

Hello.

The size of ps file can be really huge.  I read long time ago, an external
program can be hooked up to latex so it will do gzip -dc when a *.gz file is
called.

Thanks.

RE: Followup: Bibliography problems.

2000-08-31 Thread Zailong Bian


Hi...

I actually FIXed it!  I specifyed the key value in each of the bib item.  I
used author's lastname+year as the key and ignore the label(so the
citation appears as number in print).  It is easier when I want to cite it
since the key is more meaningful than number only. 

I just had to go throw my report and change all the citations. But I am
happy with lyx now!

I think there is still a problem: if I change the key value in Bibliography
item, the key value cited in text will not get updated then it appears as
error (?).  Also, it does not detect duplicate key value...

 The bibliography sesms having some problems.

 For example:

 The 7th bib item has key value 8.  And where I refer to it in text, it

paper.
 So, it seems that I can get around the problem by always refering to
the key
 value, not the number showing in the grey box at beginning of each bib
item.
 At least it is correct on printed copy. But the problem is:  one
single key
 valye can show up twice in different bib items!  That happened so it
is
 really a problem!

 Anyone has a fix?  Thanks!!

Hallo,
I had the same problem, I didn't get a fix, and finally decided to
use
Bibtex instead of the way of citing implemented in Lyx. With Bibtex all
works
fine.

I am using the latest lyx to write a report.  I am using Koma-script
report.  Everything seems great from beginning and now I am getting
close to finish the report...But I found there is big problem with
bibliography!

The number showing in the grey box at beginning of each bib item is NOT
the same as the one in the key field when I click on it.  This happened
after I inserted some bib items and moved some others around!  The
numbers in grey box are ordered from 1 to ..., but the key fields of
them are not!  And the citation in the text doesn't change with the grey
box but stay with the old key numbers.  Now they seem totally messed up.

I tried to change the key field to make it the same as showing in grey
box, but after inserting some bib items, it got screwed again!  And
almost the all the references in the text are wrong.  What can I do to
fix it?

I have left all the label field blank.  I didn't think it is any
useful...

Thanks!
