Italics for titles in references
Hello, I use OSX 10.13.6, LyX 2.3.2 and KomaScript report and would like to use italics in the references (footnotes and bibliography). Could somebody please tell me a proper way how to achieve this? I need this for the format »chapter«, the title and book title in »incollection«, the title in »inbook« and citetitle. I hope it is clear, what I mean, otherwise I would try to describe otherwise. Thanks for your help Jess

Okay, let me just say that I'm a doctor and not a programmer (just an IT
enthusiast) so I may be off on some of my answers here... what I
noticed that the čć and similar are converted to gibberish in bib file
key and lyx could not read it... it may indeed be problem due to bib
encoding or jabref new version... don't think that lyx is really the
problem here.
Now that I've manually removed the croatian diacritics from the
Bibtexkey I get a load of new errors complaining of undefined fields
like so:
\newblock Available from: \url
{http://stacks.iop.org/0031-
9155/48/i=16/a=...
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.
This is due to DOI and URL fields in bib file, because if I erase them
no more errors. I can however ignore this error (warning?) and get a
perfect result.
So, apologies to LyX powers that be, I guess I was to blame here,
probably some encoding change in bib file after upgrading other software
that I didn't notice ... shouldn't use those characters in key fields
anyhow... :)

Hi Nikola, Can you send a minimal example that used to work for you in 2.1.x and no longer works for you in 2.2.0? That would really help when figuring this out. There might be a bug that we need to fix. Also, when you compiled with 2.2.0 did you happen to try clicking on the "Show Output Anyway" button?

Croatian diacritics not working in references after upgrading to 2.2
Hi, The subject pretty much sums it up. As suggested in previous thread I've upgraded to lyx 2.2. The new version would not produce a result when exporting to PDF because of unknown characters. I've tracked this to Croatian diacritics from the references bib file. I've manually replaced all surnames with diacritics I. E. Č to C or ž to z and than it worked fine. Although the names were no longer correct. Any idea what is happening here and what to do? Thanks

Re: Hacking bst files... [Was: Show entry type in References]
Ares skrev: As I wrote in a previous post, I would like the references of my PhD thesis to be arranged as follows: References Articles [Art1] article1 [Art2] article2 etc Books [Book1] book1 [Book2] book2 etc etc ... LyX 1.4.1 supports "sectioned bibliography", so it is possible to split the Bibliography chapter in sections. In order to have the citation as [Art1] and [Book1] etc, I need to hack a bst file, as suggested by Jürgen. I had a look to plain.bst and it doesn't sound so easy! In the end I would just like to add a prefix (Book, Art etc) to the reference numbering and to use a separate bst file for each entry (Books, Articles etc), so that the numbering starts with each "section". Is there a resource where I can find how bst files work? or is there someone who can help me? Thanks for support, Diego Hi! I think that a much easier way to get a bst file than to start hack it is to use the makebst utility. (run latex makebst) Then you get a series of multiple choice question on how you want to format oyur bibliographical entries. Then two files are created, a dbj file and a bst file. The bst file is the bibliography file created. The dbj file is a batch file that is run through latex to create the bst file. If you later want to tweak the style file, this can easily be done by changing the dbj file, which is quite easy. Just comment out the option you want to change using a "#", and uncomment the line with the option you prefer instead. The you just run the dbj file thorugh latex to update the bst file! You might not be able to do everything this way, but at least it is easy and it helped me a lot! /Sara
Re: Hacking bst files... [Was: Show entry type in References]
One of the things I personally find annoying about LaTeX is the syntax,
and BibTeX is even worse, frankly, but it's not that insanely
complicated once you adjust to the stack-oriented character of the
language. You may find it useful to keep pen and paper nearby so you can
keep track of what's on the stack as you trace the code.
If you haven't read it, obviously you should read btxhak.dvi, the guide
to hacking BibTeX style files. It takes a while---I know---to get a
sense for how the language works, and how these style files work, but it
will start to make sense after a while. You should also export to LaTeX,
compile the file manually, and look at what is being written to the .bbl
file, when various bibliography styles are used.
The labels used in the bibliography, and in the text, are set by the
\bibitem command that the style file writes to the .bbl file. In many
style files, this seems to be written by the output.bibitem function,
which is called at the beginning of each of the functions, article,
book, etc, that are called for the appropriate sorts of items. Here it
is from plain.bst:
FUNCTION {output.bibitem}
{ newline$
"\bibitem{" write$
cite$ write$
"}" write$
newline$
""
before.all 'output.state :=
}
This ends up writing something like:
\bibitem{Descartes:Rules}
to your .bbl file. Compare this function, from alpha.bst:
FUNCTION {output.bibitem}
{ newline$
"\bibitem[" write$
label write$
"]{" write$
cite$ write$
"}" write$
newline$
""
before.all 'output.state :=
}
This writes something like:
\bibitem[Des82]{Descartes:Rules}
to the .bbl file, with the result that the label "Des82" is used both in
the text and the bibliography. Since there is no such argument to
\bibitem in the previous case, the default is used: The cite key is
simply a number.
The variable "label" is what holds the value of the cite key in
alpha.bst. Where was it set? You will note that it is mentioned in the
ENTRY declaration, both in plain.bst and in alpha.bst, as a "string
variable" that is associated with each item in the bibliography. This is
NOT an item set in the .bib file itself---unlike author, title,
etc---but rather a new variable that has been declared to be associated
with each item and that can be manipulated in the .bst file. In
plain.bst, the label variable is set in the function longest.label.pass:
FUNCTION {longest.label.pass}
{ number.label int.to.str$ 'label := % number.label was initialized to 1 in
initialize.longest.label
% its string form is here being assigned
to label
number.label #1 + 'number.label := %this increments number.label
label width$ longest.label.width >
{ label 'longest.label :=
label width$ 'longest.label.width :=
}
'skip$
if$
}
(I've added comments.) This function is called for each item in the
bibliography with:
ITERATE(longest.label.pass)
which is itself called after the list has been sorted and such. If you
look at alpha.bst, you will see that label is set for each item in
calc.label, which is itself called in the function presort, called with
ITERATE(presort).
Hint: If you want to know where a variable named "var" is set, search
for: 'var, since an assignment to var will look like: 'var :=, the
assigned value being whatever is on the top of the stack. (If you see
whatever 'var ;=, then the occurrence of "whatever" is just pushing a
value onto the stack.)
So the label variable exists in plain.bst, but it is not used there. But
we can use it. For example, suppose we change the definition of
output.bibitem in plain.bst to the following:
FUNCTION {output.bibitem}
{ newline$
"\bibitem[FROG" write$
label write$
"]{" write$
cite$ write$
"}" write$
newline$
""
before.all 'output.state :=
}
Then we get cite keys like: FROG3, FROG25, etc.
Your request is more complicated, because we want something different
for different types of entries. But that's OK, because we have the entry
type in the type$ variable, and we can just check that. The easiest
thing to do would seem to be to define a new function that will print
the prefix we want depending upon the entry type. This function will
handle articles, incollections, and books:
FUNCTION {output.prefix}
{
type$ "incollection" =
type$ "article" =
+ %hack for "or"
{ "Art" }
{
type$ "book" =
{ "Book" }
{ "Other" }
if$
}
if$
}
If you need to add other types, that's obviously easy to do. (There's no
elsif here, so we have to use nested ifs. Exercise: Code up a switch or
case statement!) We then redefine output.bibitem as follows:
FUNCTION {output.bibitem}
{ newline$
"\bibitem[" write$
output.prefix write$
label write$
"]{" write$
cite$ write$
"}" write$
newline$
""
before.all 'output.state :=
}
That should do what you need, more or less.

I have been testing several solutions but haven't find any yet. I keep testing... Kind regards, Kimmo
Hacking bst files... [Was: Show entry type in References]
As I wrote in a previous post, I would like the references of my PhD thesis to be arranged as follows: References Articles [Art1] article1 [Art2] article2 etc Books [Book1] book1 [Book2] book2 etc etc ... LyX 1.4.1 supports "sectioned bibliography", so it is possible to split the Bibliography chapter in sections. In order to have the citation as [Art1] and [Book1] etc, I need to hack a bst file, as suggested by Jürgen. I had a look to plain.bst and it doesn't sound so easy! In the end I would just like to add a prefix (Book, Art etc) to the reference numbering and to use a separate bst file for each entry (Books, Articles etc), so that the numbering starts with each "section". Is there a resource where I can find how bst files work? or is there someone who can help me? Thanks for support, Diego
Bibliography in TOC [Was: Show entry type in References]
I managed to get the Bibliography in TOC in the output file by using the TeX command \backmatter right before the Bibliography Chapter (not Chapter*) and preceded by a page break. See: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.text.tex/browse_thread/thread/ce999aa747cf4a3e/36b1505bedbf3288?q=starred+TOC&rnum=1#36b1505bedbf3288 In this way, inside LyX you get the Bibliography chapter numbered, and as an appendix (if you have, as in my case, appendixes), also appearing in LyX file TOC. When you view the pdf, for example, you get a nice Bibliography title (without number) in TOC of the compiled document. Perhaps it is a dirty trick, but it works... Anyway the Document settings --> Numbering and TOC pane does not work... is it a bug? how to report it?

The starred versions of the headings are _by definition_ excluded from the
toc. So either add
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Bibliography}
in ERT below the heading, or use the KOMA-script classes, which provide
\addchap (unnumbered headings that are included in the TOC).

Hi, lyx users I have a small problem with my references. I am using JabRef as the database and insert selected references via the lyx pipe into my document. Some of the references in the database are copied from an other database. If they are piped into the text, they are referenced as author1 und author2 instead of author1 and author2. I do not understand the cause of it. The bibtex text seems to be identical. Does this has to do with JabRef, some language setting, and how do I change it?

You don't need to copy the original definition. You can use something like
this (in the preamble):
\usepackage{setspace}
\let\oldbibliography\bibliography
\renewcommand{\bibliography}[1]{\setstretch{0.8}\oldbibliography{#1}}

I can't tell you the exact code, but here's the process by which I would find
out:
Start by grepping for the bibtex environment or command in /usr/share/texmf
tree. Find a \newenvironment, \newcommand, \renewenvironment, or
\renewcommand for that environment or command. Then paste that entire
definition into either your layout file or your document preamble, and add
code to change the line spacing. The code I would add is to put
\usepackage{setspace}
early in the preamble or layout, and then follow it any time later with the
above referenced code with something like
\setlength{\parsep}{-1pt}
\setlength{\parskip}{-1pt}
\setstretch{0.8}
or whatever makes the spacing right for you.
Hope this helps.
