Bibliography headers and TOC
Hi all! I'm using Lyx 1.6.0 to write my master thesis. It's all fine, except two points for which I dont' find solutions neither in the archives nor other forums. 1- Bibliography header. I'm using document class BOOK and fancy headers. Bilbiografy appears capitalized and both in upper-left and upper-right corners, which is annoying for me. I would like to have it not capitalized and just in one corner. 2- Bibliography and TOC. Ok, just marking the option in the Bibtex Generated Bibliography, it does the correct TOC, but when using the generated PDF and clicking there in toc, the hyperlink brings me to the chapter before. Thanks in advance Pablo

While my original problem was LaTeX-related, this may be LyX-specific.
My solution was to put \addcontentsline...{} as TeX-Style just

Preface/Bibliography missing from TOC
Can someone suggest why an un-numbered Chapter called "Preface", and my Bibliography section do not appear in the table of contents(TOC)? They don't appear in the TOC popup box, nor do they appear in the printed TOC pages. There appear as pages in the printout, just not in the TOC. Any ideas? I am starting a book using LyX 1.04. The book is on PostgreSQL, www.postgresql.org. -- Bruce Momjian| http://www.op.net/~candle [EMAIL PROTECTED]| (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup.| Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026

Here is one way:
add
\newcommand{\tocchap}[1]{\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\protect\numberline{}#1}}
in the preamble, and mark
\tocchap{Whatever title}
after the starred chapter or biblio, lof or lot reference section
If you want the toc entry look like an entry section, define a similar \tocsect
command.

Tables of contents entries are generated only by the sectioning
commands. In
order to add a new entry you should type in Tex mode the following
command:
\addcontentsline{toc}{sec_unit}{entry}
where sec_unit is chapter, section... as you want the appearance in the
toc
and entry is Preface, Bibliography, Goofy or anything else!
Put the command just after the right heading in your document (but check
the
page number in the toc... in the past were reported some problems of a
wrong
page number... so you should adjust the position of the command}.
Hope this help.

I think I can help with the magic... but my server today doesn't working
properly... I hope this msg will go to his destination.

[Hope it OK I am Cc'ing to the LyX list.]
After looking at the latex output, I saw that this was a Latex problem,
and found the extact text you describe in the Usenet archives, added it
for Preface, and it works great. Nice trick. [I have Lamports book and
the LaTeX Companion on order, so I should be asking fewer questions in
the future. Also, I will be try to mention LyX/LaTeX in the Preface
somewhere.]
However, I couldn't figure out how to get put the Latex inline code in
the bibliography. I can put it before the bibliography starts, but that
doesn't help because it shows the wrong page number. I can put it at
the end of the bibliography, but that doesn't work if the bibliography
is more than one page in length.
While my original problem was LaTeX-related, this may be LyX-specific.
My solution was to put \addcontentsline...{} as TeX-Style just
before the first bibliographic entry, so it reads:
[1]\addcontentsline...{}Author, Title
^
TeX-style here
Seems like that is the solution.

one way of solving this page number problem is:
\addtocounter{page}{n} where n is the number of pages you wish to add
to the page counter.
This is useful when you have added the bibliography to the toc, but
have appendecies following the bibliography and want the page numbers
on them to be correct, as I found out recently.
