Many thanks!
You are defining `defbibheading` in a way that updates the running
header with *Further Reading* via `markboth`. Deleting this line should
fix your problem.
If you really want to have the chapter titles on the starting pages of
chapters, you can use `\renewcommand*{\chapterpagestyle}{scrheadings}`
or use the starred variant of the commands - `\ihead*{Chapter
\headmark}`. An up to date version of KOMA-script is needed for that.
Once you start the appendix, you have some trouble, as you are
hard-coding the word *chapter*. You can use `\chapapp` instead.

LaTeX Question
Dear Group, This is more of a LaTeX question rather than a LyX question, but I know there are many LaTeX experts here, too, so here goes. I'm currently working with a set of fluids equations which have both velocity and volume terms. Given how frequently the variable v appears in both (by convention), I would like to somehow distinguish them in my notes. (Right now, I've been using an uppercase V for volume and lowercase v for velocity.) I've seen several texts use a variant of the V character, however, to make the distinction more clear. Any idea how this might be done? What is the best way to use a variant character in a math expression, or is there a standard LaTeX symbol for volume? (Regular V appears to be used for velocity, variant V for volume.) I've already looked through the general LaTeX symbols list and the LyX menus, but wasn't able to find the symbols used in the text. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Cheers, Rob

$V$ and $v = ds/dt$ or $u = ds/dt$ are the symbols recommended by the

Some mathematical fonts have $v$ differ from \itshape{v} in order to

That is because figures are floats: LaTeX puts them where it wants, with

or something similar.
If you want the graphic exactly where it is in the text, then you need
to load the float package:
\usepackage{float}
and use the here definitely option:

That tells LaTeX: Put it where it is.

That is because figures are floats: LaTeX puts them where it wants, with
hints from you. Read this:

If you want the graphic exactly where it is in the text, then you need
to load the float package:
\usepackage{float}
and use the here definitely option:

Simple Geany How to:

1.If Geany is not already installed you need to go to the Ubuntu

2.Once installed you can start the application from either the side

S many thanks to the poster of that other message (soem days

Here is now my question to the LaTeX gurus:
How can I define a LaTeX macro which gives me the END of the string
delivered by \input@path?
To give a concrete example: When I open document test-01.lyx with LyX in
the directory
/home/leo/leo/Tests/Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam
and compile my document it shows the correct path
/home/leo/leo/Tests/Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam/
Fine.
What I would like to derive from this string is
/.../Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam/ ;-)
See what I mean?
My LaTeX experience told me the need for \makeat...,
but this transformation I'm not able to do in LaTeX.
Any help appreciated

kludge solution, if you know how deep your paths are:
\def\removeprefixx/#1/#2/#3/#4/#5{Your path is /.../#5}
\def\removeprefix#1{\expandafter\removeprefixx#1}
\removeprefix{\input@path}
Hi Julien,
thanks for your answer ;-)
I think I got the basic idea
BUT i Do NOT know the length the path delivered by \input@path.
To make clear what I'm looking for I put it in python code:
leo@sylhepta ~ $ python
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 15 2010, 15:52:39)
[GCC 4.4.5] on linux2
Type help, copyright, credits or license for more information.
def shorten_path(path, len):
... return '/.../' + '/'.join(path.split('/')[-len:])
...
shorten_path('/home/leo/leo/Test/abc',2)
'/.../Test/abc'
Can this be done in (La)TeX?
Thanks again and thanks to all others who contributed

Hellmut,
You might consider taking your question to a dedicated TeX channel.
Splitting on / is doable, escaping _ too, but the real hard part about
your request is this:
[-len:]
In tEx I do not know how to access the last N elements of a list when he
list length is unknown, although accessing the first N is easy. If you
know the list length then it's easy as well, but it looks not right for
your case because the path could be any depth.
Cheers,
Julien

OK, so this is getting a little off-topic, but the attached kind of
works, as you can see if you compile it. Unfortunately, it does not work
with macros, but only with a literal. I.e., this:
\split{hi/there/bob}
works but
\def\tempa{hi/there/bob}
\split{\tempa}
does not work. I do not see why, but perhaps someone else will know.

in an ERT eventually gives me the correct path to my LyX document as
string in the document.
S many thanks to the poster of that other message (soem days
ago) !
Here is now my question to the LaTeX gurus:
How can I define a LaTeX macro which gives me the END of the string
delivered by \input@path?
To give a concrete example: When I open document test-01.lyx with
LyX in
the directory
/home/leo/leo/Tests/Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam
and compile my document it shows the correct path
/home/leo/leo/Tests/Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam/
Fine.
What I would like to derive from this string is
/.../Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam/ ;-)
See what I mean?
My LaTeX experience told me the need for \makeat...,
but this transformation I'm not able to do in LaTeX.
Any help appreciated
Cheers

kludge solution, if you know how deep your paths are:
\def\removeprefixx/#1/#2/#3/#4/#5{Your path is /.../#5}
\def\removeprefix#1{\expandafter\removeprefixx#1}
\removeprefix{\input@path}
Hi list,
I have to add one aspect to the functionality I'm looking for:
Since I'm used to use directory names which contain underscores ('_') my
python code should read:
leo@sylhepta ~ $ python
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 15 2010, 15:52:39)
[GCC 4.4.5] on linux2
Type help, copyright, credits or license for more information.
def shorten_path(path, len):
... return '/.../' + '/'.join(path.split(
'/')[-len:]).replace('_','\_')
...
shorten_path('/home/leo/leo/Test_01/abc',2)
'/.../Test\_01/abc'
TIA and Best regards

Hellmut,
You might consider taking your question to a dedicated TeX channel.
Splitting on / is doable, escaping _ too, but the real hard part about
your request is this:
[-len:]
In tEx I do not know how to access the last N elements of a list when
he list length is unknown, although accessing the first N is easy. If
you know the list length then it's easy as well, but it looks not
right for your case because the path could be any depth.
OK, so this is getting a little off-topic, but the attached kind of
works, as you can see if you compile it. Unfortunately, it does not work
with macros, but only with a literal. I.e., this:
\split{hi/there/bob}
works but
\def\tempa{hi/there/bob}
\split{\tempa}
does not work. I do not see why, but perhaps someone else will know.

Hi Julien,
thanks for your answer ;-)
I think I got the basic idea
BUT i Do NOT know the length the path delivered by \input@path.
To make clear what I'm looking for I put it in python code:
leo@sylhepta ~ $ python
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 15 2010, 15:52:39)
[GCC 4.4.5] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> def shorten_path(path, len):
... return '/.../' + '/'.join(path.split('/')[-len:])
...
>>> shorten_path('/home/leo/leo/Test/abc',2)
'/.../Test/abc'
>>>
Can this be done in (La)TeX?
Thanks again and thanks to all others who contributed
Best regards
Hellmut

Yes, but it involves magic. This post
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2402354/split-comma-separated-parameters-in-latex
describes how to split on commas and this one on spaces
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/12810/how-do-i-split-a-string
They can both be adapted.

LaTeX question w.r.t \input@path
Hi list, recently in another post I found the internal LaTeX macro \input@path mentioned. Putting this (surrounded by \makeatletter and \makeatother) in an ERT eventually gives me the correct path to my LyX document as string in the document. S many thanks to the poster of that other message (soem days ago) ! Here is now my question to the LaTeX gurus: How can I define a LaTeX macro which gives me the END of the string delivered by \input@path? To give a concrete example: When I open document test-01.lyx with LyX in the directory /home/leo/leo/Tests/Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam and compile my document it shows the correct path /home/leo/leo/Tests/Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam/ Fine. What I would like to derive from this string is /.../Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam/ ;-) See what I mean? My LaTeX experience told me the need for \makeat..., but this transformation I'm not able to do in LaTeX. Any help appreciated Cheers Hellmut -- Dr. Hellmut Weber m...@hellmutweber.de Degenfeldstraße 2 tel +49-89-3081172 D-80803 München-Schwabing mobil +49-172-8450321 please: No DOCs, no PPTs. why: tinyurl.com/cbgq

kludge solution, if you know how deep your paths are:
\def\removeprefixx/#1/#2/#3/#4/#5{Your path is /.../#5}
\def\removeprefix#1{\expandafter\removeprefixx#1}
\removeprefix{\input@path}

\def\removeprefixx/#1/#2/#3/#4/#5{Your path is /.../#5}
\def\removeprefix#1{\expandafter\removeprefixx#1}
\removeprefix{\input@path}

\expandafter\foo\bar tells TeX to expand \bar before expanding \foo
in this case:
first,
expand \input@path to /home/leo/leo/Tests/Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam

(O/T) Latex Question
I realize this is not about lyx but I am using lyx first and then
exporting to latex.
My problem is that the journal I am submitting to (Philosophical
Transactions Royal Society A) doesn't provide a bst file and insists
that bibliography items be placed in the latex file in full.
This is a pain because I use bibtex usually and have all my citations
stored nicely in a bib file. Is there a macro or method for converting a
latex file using a callout to a bib file to one in which all citations
are listed at the end of the file after the command
\begin{thebibliography}{}???
I see that the bbl file lists the references but doesn't seem to be in
the correct format for inserting in the original latex file...

LaTeX question
Hi it has proven very helpful for me to have at the end of my documents the full path of the master file. Giving a look to the latex preview (many thanks for that feature !;-) I saw the definition of '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. Great, first part of the information needed, already available (to be included in a '\makeatletter / \makeatother' pair for latex's sake). For the second part, i.e. the actaual filename some time ago in this lsit the TeX command '\jobname' has been mentioned. Wunderful. AS LONG AS you don't have illegal cahrs in your path (Like '_' which I use quite a lot. Does anybody know how to modify TeX strings as 'Test_01' to 'Test\_01', i.e. escape the illegal chars with a backslash. I'm sure it is possible but my TeX knowledge is not sufficient.

Change the catcode so that underscore is treated as a letter instead: \catcode`\_=12\relax should do it. Since you're at the end of a document no need to restore it I think, but if you wish to, doing so is left as an exercise for the reader.

Re: LaTeX question
Hi William, this certainly will do it ;-) Change the catcode so that underscore is treated as a letter instead: \catcode`\_=12\relax should do it.

LaTeX question
Hi it has proven very helpful for me to have at the end of my documents the full path of the master file. Giving a look to the latex preview (many thanks for that feature !;-) I saw the definition of '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. Great, first part of the information needed, already available (to be included in a '\makeatletter / \makeatother' pair for latex's sake). For the second part, i.e. the actaual filename some time ago in this lsit the TeX command '\jobname' has been mentioned. Wunderful. AS LONG AS you don't have "illegal" cahrs in your path (Like '_' which I use quite a lot. Does anybody know how to modify TeX strings as 'Test_01' to 'Test\_01', i.e. escape the illegal chars with a backslash. I'm sure it is possible but my TeX knowledge is not sufficient. Any help appreciated.
