Hi Jürgen,

  Sorry to re-open this thread, but it no longer works, or at least not on my
system. Does LyX now handle glossing differently? Or has the \leftmargini
command been subsumed by another command?

  I posted more details of my issue here:
http://www.latex-community.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=19p=75890

Any thoughts/recommendations you have would be greatly appreciated. Of course,
it may just be my system having this issue, which would also be worth knowing.

Best,
Hiram

The tip on the wiki only changes the example (singular) environment.
To achieve the same with examples (plural), add the following to the
preamble;

\let\oldexamples\examples
\let\endoldexamples\endexamples
\renewenvironment{examples}{%
\setlength\leftmargini{3.05em}
\begin{oldexamples}%
\settowidth{\labelwidth}{(0.00)}}

Thanks Jürgen! Yes, that works perfectly!

Amazing how simple the solution was - I was approaching the issue from so many
wrong directions.

Thanks again,

 It seems that \leftmargin is completely ignored:

There are two things to be considered here:

1. leftmargin is differentiated per indendation level (\leftmargini, 
\leftmarginii, etc.)

2. \leftmargin needs to be set before the list starts.

Try something like:

\renewenvironment{example}{%
\setlength\leftmargini{3.05em}

Hello again,

After some days of playing around I still haven't found a solution to  
the problem. Indeed it seems a very tricky business.


It seems that \leftmargin is completely ignored:

\setlength{\leftmargin}{2pt}
or
\setlength{\leftmargin}{92pt}

do not change anything in the pdf-output.

The labels are still standing out/are not aligned with the leftmargin  
of the main text.

Here's the whole relevant part of the preamble:

%correctly adjustment of covington examples
\renewenvironment{example}{%
\begin{examples}
\settowidth{\labelwidth}{(0.00)}
\setlength{\leftmargin}{92pt}
\item}
{\end{examples}}

Can you/someone help me?

Johannes

You need to play with other list values such as \leftmargin.

Problems with indentation and linguistics module (covington)

[Johannes Knaus]

Hello,

I've got a problem with the example-numbering in the linguistics  
module:


I use the example-style to refer to OT-constraint definition  
(linguists may know what I'm talking about).

Basically it always looks like this:

(3.1) Constraint Name linebreak
  Constraint Definition

This works fine and the two words Constraint are perfectly aligned  
under each other, i.e. have the same indentation (obviously better  
than in this email ;-).


The problem occurs in a chapter (maybe I should note that I use KOMA- 
script book) where the counter grows above 9.

This looks roughly like this:

(3.10) Constraint Name linebreak
   Constraint Definition

So the indentation of the second line is to small. It seems that it is  
aligned in the same depth as if the counter consisted of only one  
number.


Can I correct this? How?

Thanks for replying.

Johannes
