Richard, please don't overreact. Requesting a feature from developers

when LyX is not supporting a certain feature.


Had he simply made that suggestion, I wouldn't have reacted at all. As I 
said, I made the same suggestion and conceded that, at present, LyX's 
output is no better off. So please explain why it was necessary for 
Guenter to preface the remark with "WRONG" in capital letters and how 
that was supposed to be taken?

WRONG: you can ask the elyxer developer whether support for these
constructs, providing sample input (and preferabely expected output).

elyxer's math support is pretty basic;
 

but steadily improving (and for this depends on user feedback).

   

Which is irrelevant to the user's question.


Or instead of uninstalling elyxer, define htlatex as an alternative HMTL converter 
in Tools>Settings.

   
Perhaps you should try this yourself before giving such advice. (Perhaps 
you do not understand how the converter chain works.)

You might want to try whether htlatex supports the polynom package
with a "manual" conversion (export to LaTeX and call htlatex from the
command line) first. Or instead of uninstalling elyxer, define htlatex
as an alternative HMTL converter in Tools>Settings.

you will have the choice between all instlled HTML exporters by default
(without the need of manually defining them in Tools>Settings).

Is this LyX 1.6.x or the alpha release of 2.0? Either way, what HTML 
converter are you using? It sounds as if it is either elyxer or, if 
you're in 2.0, then LyX's native XHTML output.


If you're using elyxer, then there is not really anything you can do. 
elyxer's math support is pretty basic; it doesn't even support all of 
the constructs that are available in LyX. It certainly does not support 
arbitrary packages, such as polynom. You might therefore want to 
uninstall elyxer (I'm sorry, but that is what you would have to do), 
reconfigure LyX, and try using htlatex, which has its own issues but 
handles math better, since it does it all via images. (Of course, that 
can lead to scaling problems, etc, but at least you get decent output.)


If you are using 2.0, then you will run into the same problem right now, 
since XHTML support is not yet complete. Eventually, however, LyX will 
do precisely what you suggest: If it encounters something that it 
doesn't understand, then it will output an image. There's nothing 
stopping elyxer from doing the same, of course, so it that is what you 
are using then you might want to report the issue to the elyxer developer.

Which LyX -> HTML converter are you using?
Which version of LyX?

Lyx HTML conversion problem - while using polynom package

2010-04-05 Thread baqijan1


When I use polynom package in lyx. The html output does not show that parts
where
macros from polynom package is used.
For example, if I have something lik

\polylongdiv{x^2-2x+1}{x-1}

When I convert lyxt to pdf, there is no problem. Only html does not work. I
assume, 
it should convert these instances to images, which it does not.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Since, I am stuck at this and can't
move on.
