My suggestion is rather brutal.  That is to create a separate document 
for the own-publications list, process it with command-line 
applications (latex and biblatex) to get a final .tex file, and then 
drop its essential content into the dissertation file.


I'm sorry that I don't have a happier solution.

Biblatex does not allow to mix different styles in a document.

I would suggest that you compile the publication list on your own and
adapt the pagination via \setcounter{page}{}

Polina,

  I doubt there is a 'proper' way, only one acceeptable to your committee.

  Have you considered putting your publication list as a separate,
un-numbered chapter, or an appendix? Those would be what I would try, but
I've not had an need to use the master-child document format (my publishedf
book was one document with a single reference appendix).

  Others likely have other solutions which better fit your needs and your
committee's preference.

Good luck defending,

Rich

 That's also part of the directory path…

Ok, that's probably not possible. I just tried to create such an account -
spaces are not accepted here - fortunately.

Now I've had a look into the source. If this error is shown depends on the
LyX preference variable named tex_allows_spaces and the correct value for
it is determined when LyX's configure.py script checks the latex compiler.
With MacTeX this shouldn't happen.

Please try to Reconfigure LyX and try again.

Are you able to run LyX from the terminal? This sounds like the same
problem we were all having before but running from the terminal worked. It
should have been resolved with the latest version though.

 Possibly not - see ticket 9317: http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9317

Hmm.. this is a pity. Two things you may try:
1. Enable the message pane below the View menu.
Activate the debug messages for LaTeX production.
Then press the pdf creation button and copy the 
contents of the message pane to your next mail.
2. Try to do what Wolfgang proposed.
Rename the folder(s) with space(s) in the name
and eliminate the spaces.

Ok, no problem. There are different things the guys are talking about. 
I'll try to explain it.
1. The terminal thing is a possibility to start the broken program in a 
different way.
There is the possibility it works then - then it would be clear you 
have a known problem.
2. You cannot incorporate the patch yourself. A patch is useful for a 
developer to fix a 
problem and build a new version of a program. This step I did already 
for you.
3. You may open the downloaded .dmg file on your system and use the 
included LyX program.
This program version includes the mentioned patch already.
4. The checksum file is useful to verify the correctness of the 
downloaded file.
If you don't know how to do this it's not necessary to do this step.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you are able to start the 
LyX 2.1.2.2 included in the .dmg file.

I'm late coming into this but I wonder if you think you have deleted
the spaces or have in actual fact. If you copy and past your document
into a text editor it might show up the space if you move your cursor
through it.

Otherwise just check that you're not using some forbidden character in
your document that might show up as a space.

Probably not much help. But if I have ever had such an error [not for a
long time] I have changed the document name to one word, just to see if
it loads then. If it does, the rename it as desired typing it carefully
and try again.

Be well,

See all the errors in the above, instead of document, it should be
document name and instead of the in some instances it should be
then.

I find it easy to make mistakes, typos. [sigh]

copy/paste it somewhere in the terminal? I have downloaded v 2.1.2.2 on 
yosemite. Also how do I use the checksum signature? 
Again, forgive me, I was taught how to use this GUI but not the latex 
behind it. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Hope to hear 
from you soon. 
   
   Ok, no problem. There are different things the guys are talking about. 
   I'll try to explain it.
   1. The terminal thing is a possibility to start the broken program in a 
   different way.
   There is the possibility it works then - then it would be clear you have 
   a known problem.
   2. You cannot incorporate the patch yourself. A patch is useful for a 
   developer to fix a 
   problem and build a new version of a program. This step I did already for 
   you.
   3. You may open the downloaded .dmg file on your system and use the 
   included LyX program.
   This program version includes the mentioned patch already.
   4. The checksum file is useful to verify the correctness of the 
   downloaded file.
   If you don't know how to do this it's not necessary to do this step.
   
   I hope this helps. Please let me know if you are able to start the 
   LyX 2.1.2.2 included in the .dmg file.

Hmm.. this is a pity. Two things you may try:
1. Enable the message pane below the View menu.
Activate the debug messages for LaTeX production.
Then press the pdf creation button and copy the 
contents of the message pane to your next mail.
2. Try to do what Wolfgang proposed.
Rename the folder(s) with space(s) in the name
and eliminate the spaces.

I'm late coming into this but I wonder if you think you have deleted
the spaces or have in actual fact. If you copy and past your document
into a text editor it might show up the space if you move your cursor
through it.

Otherwise just check that you're not using some forbidden character in
your document that might show up as a space.

Probably not much help. But if I have ever had such an error [not for a
long time] I have changed the document name to one word, just to see if
it loads then. If it does, the rename it as desired typing it carefully
and try again.

Be well,

See all the errors in the above, instead of document, it should be
document name and instead of the in some instances it should be
then.

I find it easy to make mistakes, typos. [sigh]

RE: Issue with lyx PLEASE HELP

[V N]

I have version: 

LyX Version 2.1.2.2

(November 1, 2014)

Library directory: /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/

User directory: ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-2.1/


When I open my file and then press the button to make a pdf it gives me the 
error message and I press ok to go back to my file. Then I go to documents and 
the "latex log" is grey. I'm not able to choose it. Is there another way I can 
send you it  to you? Again, thank you for your patience.

Hmm.. this is a pity. Two things you may try:
1. Enable the message pane below the View menu.
Activate the debug messages for LaTeX production.
Then press the pdf creation button and copy the 
contents of the message pane to your next mail.
2. Try to do what Wolfgang proposed.
Rename the folder(s) with space(s) in the name
and eliminate the spaces.

Stephan

RE: Issue with lyx PLEASE HELP

[V N]

I'm not sure how to activate debug messages for Latex production. But I have 
deleted all of the spaces in the folder names of the location of my file and 
reopened and still have the following message in the message pane: 

14:24:46.900: Previewing ...

14:24:46.907: (buffer-view: ⌘R)Error: File name error



The directory path to the document cannot contain spaces.

I'm late coming into this but I wonder if you think you have deleted
the spaces or have in actual fact. If you copy and past your document
into a text editor it might show up the space if you move your cursor
through it.

Otherwise just check that you're not using some forbidden character in
your document that might show up as a space.

Probably not much help. But if I have ever had such an error [not for a
long time] I have changed the document name to one word, just to see if
it loads then. If it does, the rename it as desired typing it carefully
and try again.

Be well,
Charlie

See all the errors in the above, instead of document, it should be
"document name" and instead of the in some instances it should be
"then".

I find it easy to make mistakes, typos. [sigh]

Do you have given your account a name with a space?
Perhaps you are using "V N" for your account?
That's also part of the directory path…

Issue with lyx PLEASE HELP

[V N]

Hello,   I am running Yosemite and installed the latest lyx dmg file. When 
I open up lyx I am given the following prompt:
The selected document class article(AMS) requires external files that are not 
available. The document class can still be used, but the document cannot be 
compiled until the following prerequisites are installed:
amsart.cls
See section 2.1.2.2 (Class Availability) of the User's Guid for more 
information. 

After the file opens and I press the eyes to make a pdf, I get the message: The 
directory path to the document cannot contain spaces. 


I am not a tech guy so although I have read some forums where people had the 
issue I still need some step by step advice. 
Can you please HELP?! I need to make pdf's ASAP. 
Thank you for your time.

Does the name of your directory path contain a space? e.g. my directory? Try 
myDirectory.

Hello,   I am running Yosemite and installed the latest lyx dmg file. When 
I open up lyx I am given the following prompt:
The selected document class article(AMS) requires external files that are not 
available. The document class can still be used, but the document cannot be 
compiled until the following prerequisites are installed:
amsart.cls
See section 2.1.2.2 (Class Availability) of the User's Guid for more 
information. 

After the file opens and I press the eyes to make a pdf, I get the message: The 
directory path to the document cannot contain spaces. 


I am not a tech guy so although I have read some forums where people had the 
issue I still need some step by step advice. 
Can you please HELP?! I need to make pdf's ASAP. 
Thank you for your time.

Does the name of your directory path contain a space? e.g. my directory? Try 
myDirectory.

Hi jezzifer,

A couple of ideas:

1. did you subscribe with another email address that is being
forwarded to your gmail address?

2. gmail allows you to receive email from jez.z.if...@gmail.com . Did
you enter your address in a different way like this when you
subscribed?

To find out, search your inbox for the welcome message, which says
Acknowledgment: I have added the address

Please save this message so that you know the address you are

I have found it impossible to unsubscribe one address from lyx-devel 
myself, though I have tried all of these options. I did manage to get 
that address off lyx-users.

Re: Please help!

Dear Scott,

Thank you for your ideas.

1.
I have thought of this, but there is just shown this address here in  
the complete header. There also is an e-mail-address, in which one  
could enter another address than the one you write from, to  
unsubscribe the entered address. It might really be, that another  
address is forwarded, but when I looked on the google-site, I idid not  
find it. And in the header I could find the following:

Delivered-To:   jezzi...@gmail.com


2.
Maybe I subsribed with one of the following:
jezzi...@gmail.com

Have you tried unsubscribing using these two addresses? I don't use
Gmail, so I  don't know whether this is feasible sending from Gmail,
but with SMTP it is certainly possible to set the From field as
something other than the actual sender.

Note that the mail server is almost certainly case-sensitive, so while
it may send an email addressed to jezzi...@gmail.com to the same place
as an email addressed to jezzi...@gmail.com, it might not regard them

Dear Scott,

Thank you for your ideas.

1.
I have thought of this, but there is just shown this address here in  
the complete header. There also is an e-mail-address, in which one  
could enter another address than the one you write from, to  
unsubscribe the entered address. It might really be, that another  
address is forwarded, but when I looked on the google-site, I idid not  
find it. And in the header I could find the following:

lyx-users-ow...@lists.lyx.org is the »human being« which is mentioned,  
if the automized version does not work, but nothing happend after the  
several times I have told my problems there.


Why is it so difficult to get out of this list? I have treid

I think even there it is not easy enough to find that information. But

Which is the normal way to get out? Do the mentioned ways work  
normally? I always got the answer, that my address would not be on the

Is there anybody in the list who could help?

APA style manuscript? Please help format!

[Aaron Hall]

I'm trying to format an article class document for submission as an assignment 
which requires a running header, 1 inch margins, double spaces, etc... under 
APA format. 

Headings style is set to default, should I change it? I'd like to have a short 
title at the top middle, and my name at one edge...

I'm using Lyz and Zotero to handle my bibliography (fyi, seems to work), and 
I'm using the natbib option in Document Settings, and the apalike2 style on 
the right click bibliography setting. Should I use apa style? It works too, 
and I'm not sure which one is best. Also, will I have problems using the natbib 
setting? According to 
http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/biblio/bibtex/contrib/apacite/apacite.pdf
apacite may be the best implementation to date, but it's incompatible with 
natbib, and I think part of my problem is that I have very long abstracts, 
which are basically my notes on the works, and include %'s 's /'s and ()'s.  I 
erased the %'s but it still didn't work, and my notes heavily rely on the other 
symbols for diagrams and formulas...

To get rid of the huge gutter I had to unclick default margins and give it 1 
inch margins. I'm not sure what the other defaults are, so I said 1mm for head 
sep, and 1cm for head hight and 1cm for foot skip (please correct these if 
wrong, I'm not sure what they do...)

My preamble in the document settings reads: 


p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; }

\usepackage{indentfirst}
%\rhead{\textsc{Financial Services Operations Management} ~ \thepage}
The first line indents the first paragraph in section (which is usually not 
indented)
The commented code was an non-working attempt to create a running header. I 
really need a running header.

How do I center the level 1 heading? (I might not need to, but knowing would be 
great)

How do I number and label tables I made in Lyx? (or figures)? Can I insert a 
reference in the label?

Also, I need to insert diagrams that look like 
this:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Porter_Value_Chain.png
My options: Latex 

I need to answer these questions pretty soon, so anyone's help, as 
comprehensive as possible, would be greatly appreciated, and note I don't know 
much about LaTeX, so I'd like to stay above the hood if possible, though adding 
verbatim lines to the preamble is certainly ok.

Thanks!!!

Aaron

Oops, 

I trailed off on a question near the end, it was: Also, I need to insert 
diagrams that look like 
this:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Porter_Value_Chain.png
My options: Latex and I forgot to add the GiMP, MAYBE scribus, or just using a 
table in Lyx...

Anyways, the Latex for something as complex as my example appears to be REALLY 
complicated. I'm guessing the GiMP is probably what I'll have to use.

If it helps, here's my priorities, highest = 1, lowest = 5: 
1) ***running header***
2) **numbering and labeling tables and figures (numbered separately). 
3) *best bibliography recommendation
4) if I used a bad approach to workaround any of my other issues
5) if you can recommend an easy approach to getting a similar diagram (I'm 
actually using a table inside of Lyx at the moment, but a pgf/TikZ signal type 
graphic, perhaps overlaid? might be very helpful, and I might like to use 
several of them in a row with words inside, but again, this is a low 
priority...)

Again, thanks so much for your attention!  I'm going to stop researching Lyx 
and Latex for a bit and get back to writing.  Should I cross post this in the 
Latex Lyx forums?

  You might try inkscape (www.inkscape.org) for the value chain diagrams. I 
used to use XFig for that sort of thing, but I'm learning inkscape more. Of 
course, it won't automatically generate the diagrams, but it'll be a lot easier 
to use (in my opinion) than GiMP.

   1) Running headers is no problem. You may have to modify the document 
preamble to get things just as you want; it'll be something like

   \lhead{}
   \chead{Short title here}
   \rhead{name}

   2) Numbering and labeling of figures and tables should be automatic. Once 
you've chosen to (for example) insert a figure (say by Insert - Float - 
Figure), and typed in the figure caption, you can place the cursor at the 
beginning of the caption and choose Insert - Label, and give it a short label. 
Then the cross-referencing will be fine if you want to refer to that figure or 
table or whatever. (The same applies to placing labels almost anywhere, as for 
Section heads.)

3) I like using JabRef for bibliography management, though I've used 
Zotero, too, which is handy for pulling in papers and references 
semi-automatically from web-pages.

Re: APA style manuscript? Please help format! (follow up)

[Aaron Hall]

Putting that code in my preamble makes my document give compile errors. I need 
the running header to be in all caps on the title page for an APA manuscript, 
can someone help me do this?

Perhaps the issue is using the Journal class?  See my issue 4) below for what 
I'm considering to fix it.

For my issue 2) I found a potential solution to inserting figures and tables, 
though I haven't tried it:
http://www.lyx.org/Walkthrough3
Does Float seem rather non-descriptive to anyone else?  I say that as a new 
user.

Also, on my issue 3) the question isn't Zotero v. Jabref, it's apa vs 
apalike2 vs any other workable apa style (and perhaps the requisite or 
exclusive natbib)

For my issue 4) I guess I'll just use what works.  However, there is an apa 
option when selecting new document from template. When selecting this, I get 
this error: 

p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; }

The layout file requested by this document,
apa.layout,
is not usable. This is probably because a LaTeX
class or style file required by it is not
available. See the Customization documentation
for more information.
LyX will not be able to produce output. 
So I would like to be able to use this if possible, but I don't know how.

For my issue 5) I think I'm going to use OpenOffice Draw. Should I export to or 
save as JPG or PNG or something else?

I'm trying to format an article class document for submission as an assignment 
which requires a running header, 1 inch margins, double spaces, etc... under 
APA format. 

Headings style is set to default, should I change it? I'd like to have a short 
title at the top middle, and my name at one edge...

I'm using Lyz and Zotero to handle my bibliography (fyi, seems to work), and 
I'm using the natbib option in Document Settings, and the apalike2 style on 
the right click bibliography setting. Should I use apa style? It works too, 
and I'm not sure which one is best. Also, will I have problems using the natbib 
setting? According to 
http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/biblio/bibtex/contrib/apacite/apacite.pdf
apacite may be the best implementation to date, but it's incompatible with 
natbib, and I think part of my problem is that I have very long abstracts, 
which are basically my notes on the works, and include %'s 's /'s and ()'s.  I 
erased the %'s but it still didn't work, and my notes heavily rely on the other 
symbols for diagrams and formulas...

To get rid of the huge gutter I had to unclick default margins and give it 1 
inch margins. I'm not sure what the other defaults are, so I said 1mm for head 
sep, and 1cm for head hight and 1cm for foot skip (please correct these if 
wrong, I'm not sure what they do...)

My preamble in the document settings reads: 


#yiv1358983027 p, #yiv1358983027 li {white-space:pre-wrap;}

\usepackage{indentfirst}
%\rhead{\textsc{Financial Services Operations Management} ~ \thepage}
The first line indents the first paragraph in section (which is usually not 
indented)
The commented code was an non-working attempt to create a running header. I 
really need a running header.

How do I center the level 1 heading? (I might not need to, but knowing would be 
great)

How do I number and label tables I made in Lyx? (or figures)? Can I insert a 
reference in the label?

Also, I need to insert diagrams that look like 
this:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Porter_Value_Chain.png
My options: Latex 

I need to answer these questions pretty soon, so anyone's help, as 
comprehensive as possible, would be greatly appreciated, and note I don't know 
much about LaTeX, so I'd like to stay above the hood if possible, though adding 
verbatim lines to the preamble is certainly
 ok.

Thanks!!!

  You might try inkscape (www.inkscape.org) for the value chain diagrams. I 
used to use XFig for that sort of thing, but I'm learning inkscape more. Of 
course, it won't automatically generate the diagrams, but it'll be a lot easier 
to use (in my opinion) than GiMP.

   1) Running headers is no problem. You may have to modify the document 
preamble to get things just as you want; it'll be something like

   \lhead{}
   \chead{Short title here}
   \rhead{name}

   2) Numbering and labeling of figures and tables should be automatic. Once 
you've chosen to (for example) insert a figure (say by Insert - Float - 
Figure), and typed in the figure caption, you can place the cursor at the 
beginning of the caption and choose Insert - Label, and give it a short label. 
Then the cross-referencing will be fine if you want to refer to that figure or 
table or whatever. (The same applies to placing labels almost anywhere, as for 
Section heads.)

3) I like using JabRef for bibliography management, though I've used 
Zotero, too, which is handy for pulling in papers and references 
semi-automatically from web-pages.

[Aaron Hall]

Putting that code in my preamble makes my document give compile errors. I need 
the running header to be in all caps on the title page for an APA manuscript, 
can someone help me do this?

Perhaps the issue is using the Journal class?  See my issue 4) below for what 
I'm considering to fix it.

For my issue 2) I found a potential solution to inserting figures and tables, 
though I haven't tried it:
http://www.lyx.org/Walkthrough3
Does Float seem rather non-descriptive to anyone else?  I say that as a new 
user.

Also, on my issue 3) the question isn't Zotero v. Jabref, it's apa vs 
apalike2 vs any other workable apa style (and perhaps the requisite or 
exclusive natbib)

For my issue 4) I guess I'll just use what works.  However, there is an apa 
option when selecting new document from template. When selecting this, I get 
this error: 

p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; }

The layout file requested by this document,
apa.layout,
is not usable. This is probably because a LaTeX
class or style file required by it is not
available. See the Customization documentation
for more information.
LyX will not be able to produce output. 
So I would like to be able to use this if possible, but I don't know how.

For my issue 5) I think I'm going to use OpenOffice Draw. Should I export to or 
save as JPG or PNG or something else?

Putting that code in my preamble makes my document give compile errors. I need 
the running header to be in all caps on the title page for an APA manuscript, 
can someone help me do this?

Perhaps the issue is using the Journal class?  See my issue 4) below for what

For my issue 2) I found a potential solution to inserting figures and tables, 
though I haven't tried it:

Does "Float" seem rather non-descriptive to anyone else?  I say that as a new 
user.

Also, on my issue 3) the question isn't Zotero v. Jabref, it's "apa" vs 
"apalike2" vs any other workable apa style (and perhaps the requisite or 
exclusive natbib)

For my issue 4) I guess I'll just use what works.  However, there is an apa

Oops, 

I trailed off on a question near the end, it was: "Also, I need to insert 
diagrams that look like 
this:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Porter_Value_Chain.png
My options: Latex" and I forgot to add the GiMP, MAYBE scribus, or just using a 
table in Lyx...

Anyways, the Latex for something as complex as my example appears to be REALLY 
complicated. I'm guessing the GiMP is probably what I'll have to use.

If it helps, here's my priorities, highest = 1, lowest = 5: 
1) ***running header***
2) **numbering and labeling tables and figures (numbered separately). 
3) *best bibliography recommendation
4) if I used a bad approach to workaround any of my other issues
5)
 if you can recommend an easy approach to getting a similar diagram (I'm 
actually using a table inside of Lyx at the moment, but a pgf/TikZ signal type 
graphic,
 perhaps overlaid? might be very helpful, and I might like to use several of 
them in a row with words inside, but again, this is a low priority...)

Again, thanks so much for your attention!  I'm going to stop researching Lyx 
and Latex for a bit and get back to writing.  Should I cross post this in the 
Latex Lyx forums?

LOF LOT Customization - Someone Please help

[Marcelo Boss]

Hi Guys, it makes a long time since I don't post any question bothering you 
guys.
The thing is, I need to delivery something to my college and as I have a short 
period of time to do this I was wondering if some one already faced this issue.
Actually is a simple question but I'm not sure how to accomplish.

What I wanna do is:
Under LIST OF FIGURES (LOF) and LIST OF TABLES (LOT) I want the following:

Instead of 
1 . Description of Figure
2. Description of Figure
3. Description of Figure

I WANT:
Figure 1. Description of Figure
Figure 2. Description of Figure
Figure 3. Description of Figure
And
Table 1. Description of Table 
Table 2. Description of Table 
Table 3. Description of Table 

I want it for tables and figures.
I believe just a simple \renewcommand would solve my problem. CAN please 
someone tell me how to do this?

As always, 
Thank you very much.

Marcelo

You have 3 possibilities:

In case you are not alreas a memoir or koma-script document class for your document, I recommend to 
use the tocloft package.

[Marcelo Boss]

Thank you Uwe, You are always helping me. :-)
I found something useful:
\renewcommand{\cftXpresnum}{SOMETHING }

When I use it the SOMETHING word is overwriting the figures numbering. (Words 
are put upon another).
I will do a little bit more of research and let you know if it worked. If you 
have any guess...

Thank you very much
Marcelo

Re: Bibliography please help

[Piero Faustini]

 Do you know another application that could help us to build the Styles?

I never tried, but I can guess building styles with BibLaTeX would be not so 
difficoult, and it can do almost everything you can ask to other BibTeX 
packages. In addition, you can try modify existing BibLateX styles, although - 
I repeat - I never tried to do it.
And once you are able to use it, it would be worth for future needs.

SV: Bibliography please help

[Ingar Pareliussen]

 Do you know another application that could help us to build 
 the Styles?

In ctan http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/custom-bib/ 
(and probably included in your latex distribution) there are several scripts 
for making bst. It should be able to produce about everything you would want.
But you need to have a clear understanding of what you want :). Read the 
documentation as a start or run latex makebst.tex and answer the questions.

Hi, sorry I wrote unclear. What i meant was that she want the author et. 
al.,journal(italic),year(bold),volume, pages. As already mentioned I use 
jabref as references management and unsrt as bibtex style.


You haven't understood me corectly. You are writing an article for a journal, so when you know the 
journal, then you have to use the BibTeX style file provided by the journal and not unsrt. When the 
journal doesn't provide a BibTeX style they at least provide a Word template so that you know how to 
format the bibliography. So it is not important what your supervisor says, but what the 
editors/publishers of the journal need, otherwise they will reject your article until its style 
follows the guidelines.
So when you could send a Word screenshot of the template provided by the journal publisher or tell 
us the name of the journal, we can help you.


 journal(italic),year(bold),volume, pages

This is not enough info, because how are the entries separated, what is the font style of the 
entries, has the volume entry the prefix vol. or volume or no prefix...?

Bibliography AND LABEL - please help

[Marcelo Reis]

Guys, What I want I think is quiet simple.
In bibliograpy (.bib) I don't want the label AND to separate author, I 
want the SYMBOL ; to separete one author from another.


Any Idea would be great.

Thanks

Marcelo
