Hi,

Excellent suggestion. However, it still has the disadvantage that no bib 
references appear if one prints out a single chapter.


I am looking for some way to conditionally embed the bibliography into the 
child documents. If used (printed) stand alone, a child should have a 
complete bibliography section. If embedded into the master, the 
bibliographies of the children should be ignored.


I have been trying to achieve something like that for a couple of hours, 
but failed - probably because of my lacking knowledge of fundamental LaTex 
concepts. Here is the idea:


1) Define a variable \master in the preamble of the master document before 
including the common preamble:


\def\master
\input{preamble.tex}

2) Define a new \ifnomaster in the common preamble that tests for \master

3) Use ERT boxes to conditionally include the bibliography at the end of

This fails so far, probably because my \newif and \def are erroneous.

Hi.

When I wrote my thesis I used child documents and included the different 
articles I had written as children. To get the bibliography at the end of each 
article I think you needed to use the chapterbib. Add
\usepackage{chapterbib}
in the preamble.

BibTeX and master documents

2007-01-30 Thread John Hughes
I have just discovered the Insert-File-Child Document option in LyX, which 
is useful for inserting several chapter documents into one master document. 
However, if I use BibTeX references in my chapter documents, they don't 
appear correctly in the master output. The best output I have managed so far 
inserts a bibliography at the end of each chapter but the individual 
bibliographies include all the references from the entire document (i.e. 
from all of the chapters). Is there a way of achieving either individual 
bibliographies that only include the references cited in their own chapters 
or a single bibliography at the end of the master document?


Thanks

John

Hi.

When I wrote my thesis I used child documents and included the different 
articles I had written as children. To get the bibliography at the end of each 
article I think you needed to use the chapterbib. Add
\usepackage{chapterbib}
in the preamble.

AFAIK you need some extra packages for the first option, but the second one 
is easy. Don't include any bibliography in child documents, only include 
one in the master.

If you want to enter a new citation in a child you need to open the child 
from the master doc, otherwise LyX will not know which .bib file is used.

To make it easier to insert citatiosn (if you still need to), you can 
insert a bibliography within each child document, but place it inside a

It happens since your first (and perhaps second) included files are short

This didn't fix the problem.

I'm now up to 9 include files.  So, I added the \wlog{} before and after each 
of the includes.  The first time I did a View-PDF, it worked.  However, then 
editing the last file and Viewing again, didn't work.

So, I tried just changing the last file to an input, and it worked.  Then 
changed it back to an include, changed the last file, did a View-PDF and it 
worked.  (Note the main point is that I only had to change the one file to an 
input, whereas before I thought I had to change them all.)

I then repeated this process, making changes to just the 2nd include file, 
and toggling the last include in the master to an input.  Same result: as 
long as I switched between input and include, the changes would appear.  But 
if I didn't change between input and include, the changes wouldn't appear.

Hmmm.  I would be almost willing to speculate that it has something to do 
with the master document.  But what, exactly, I don't have a clue.

I can add the following: I haven't made any modifications to the preamble (in 
any of the documents).  All documents are article class.  I have made a few 
changes to page geometry (ie, mainly the setting the margins to 1 inch), 
double spaced, fonts set to pslatex, double sided pages, fancy headers turned 
on.  These are global settings in my document template.

Quick description of the files:

Master document is short: Title, Author, Table of Contents and include files.
The 1st-3rd include files are longer: 6pgs, 3pgs, 2pgs.  Start with section 
header.
The 4th-9th include files are short 1 page, start with section header.

If you'd like, I can tar up the files and send them to you.  Shouldn't be all 
that large. (The whole contents of the directory is about 76K right now - but 
it will get a bit larger as I add to it...:), and that includes backup 
files...)

I should also note here, that all of the files are in the same directory.

Master Documents?

2001-05-02 Thread George De Bruin

I'm using LyX version 1.1.6Fix1.

I have a master document that includes three files (I've tried both Article 
and Book class to see if it made a difference: it didn't).  The includes are 
preceeded by a title, author and TOC.  All of the include files are Article 
class LyX files.

In the master document, I execute View->PDF.  The PDF file is compiled and 
displayed.  Everything is fine, the table of contents is generated, etc.

Then I go ahead and load the 2nd include file, edit it, and save the file.  
Do the same with the 3rd include file.

Go back to the master and execute View->PDF again.  The resulting PDF file is 
not updated.  The changes made to the 2nd and 3rd documents aren't included.

This was where I experimented with changing between article and book class on 
the master document to see if it made a difference: it didn't.  The updated 
files weren't compiled into the PDF file.

I should also note here, that all of the files are in the same directory.  
And the directory doesn't have an spaces in the path: ~/gdb/LinuxDesktop

At this point I decided that may I needed to force an update to the PDF file. 
 So, I went ahead and executed View->Update->PDF, then tried View->PDF.  Same 
result, the PDF file wasn't updated with the include file.

Now, on a whim, I switched the includes to inputs, then saved the master and 
did a View->PDF again.  This time the output PDF file *was* updated.  So, I 
switched the inputs back to includes and again executed View->PDF, and again 
the output PDF file was actually updated (and is different from the input 
version because of the page breaks...).

What is going on here?

(I have to mention an irony here...  The third document in this set is an 
article about LyX!)

also 1.1.6fix1 with 8 include-files, editing the second, saving,
switching to master and ctrl-shift-D gives correct dvi.
