Herbert,

There it is! But I cannot see the 'twocolumn' in the LyX settings.
I gues the kludge stays there because unless I modify the .tex (or .lyx)
file the unwanted 'twocolumn' option will remain.

Sporadically incorrect figure layout in two-column Article

2019-09-18 Thread list_email
I frequently experience what appears to be a problem with the Article class. I 
am using two-column format with some floats for figures. The figures take about 
1/4 to 1/3 of the height of a column. Sometimes, two figures get pushed to one 
column, most of the time with no problems, leaving room for some text in the 
same column. Other times, the two figures occupy the entire column and leave 
lots of empty white space above and below each figure but no text there. I 
can’t figure out what causes it to happen except that it can happen after 
adding or deleting some text before the first of the figures; likewise, it can 
revert to correct layout after adding or deleting some text before the first 
figure.

I use some defaults and some non-defaults in the Document -> Settings dialog 
box. There are numerous equations.

LyX 2.3.2, macOS 10.11.6.

Here is my preamble:



% Customize character size in captions.
\usepackage{caption}
\captionsetup[figure]{font=small}

% Drop cap
\usepackage{lettrine}

%\usepackage{multicol}

% Currently using "abstract" only for \saythanks.
\usepackage{abstract}

% Try to change section, subsection... font sizes.
\usepackage{titlesec}
\titleformat{\section}
  {\normalfont\fontsize{12}{15}\bfseries}{\thesection}{1em}{}
\titleformat{\subsection}
  {\normalfont\fontsize{10}{12}\bfseries}{\thesubsection}{1em}{}

% Allow amsmath to make IEEE-style equation line breaks across pages and 
columns.
\interdisplaylinepenalty=2500



Here is a screen shot of thumbnails of three pages. The first and last are 
correctly formatted but the right column of the middle page shows the problem.

You could try using the multicol package. Turn off the two column format 
(I presume you set this in the document text settings in LyX), and 
instead add the Multiple Columns module. (This requires that you have 
the multicol package installed.)  See section 8.1 of the Additional 
Features manual.

\usepackage{flushend} on two-column documents causes misplaced footnotes

2014-08-28 Thread Jerry
When I insert 

\usepackage{flushend}

into the preamble and make the setting for two-column output, so that the 
columns on the last page have the same length (flush end), _some_ footnotes 
appear in embarrassingly inappropriate places, meaning, in the middle of a 
column, surrounded above and below by normal text.

Is this a TeX problem? Is there a known cure? Should I go to a LaTeX group and

I don't seem to see a problem with Lyx 2.0.4 and the article class with setting 
Document Settings  Text Layout  two column document selected. 

How are you defining the two column format?

Subject: Two Column Article - Text rows vertically misaligned
 


Hey everyone,

just tried to typeset an article with two-column layout and am now faced with 
the problem that the text rows on the right hand are not vertically aligned to 
the one on the left hand (probably because of section titles?).

Is there any option to force Lyx / Latex to ensure that the text rows are 
correctly aligned on both sides with respect to each other? This would look a 
lot more professional. Would be really thankful for your support

With plain text I don't see any  problem and it seems okay if I insert a

Full-length footnote in two-column document

2010-04-19 Thread Morten Juhl-Johansen Zölde-Fejér
The subject pretty much says it. I have been importing my BA thesis
into LyX in preparation for submitting it to the Internet Archive.
There is one thing I want to look into, though. I rather like the
two-column layout, but I find it problematic that the footnotes are
narrowed as part of the column, because a few footnotes can end up
taking up a lot of space. Is it possible to have the footnotes at the
bottom below the columns to span the full width of the page?
The document is exported to
http://writtenandread.net/files/lyx/roa-projekt_to-kolonner.pdf

One other thing, a minor detail: I recently wrote a small feature on
LyX - http://writtenandread.net/lyx/ - and all I could say on the
mathematics section is that I don't know anything about it. Do you have
a good link covering the mathematical features of LyX?

two-column in Hebrew is reversed

2009-11-14 Thread Peleg Sapir
Hello,

I'm using lyx 1.6.4, with culmus-latex package.
The document type is article (hebrew).
system: ubuntu 9.10.

When I choose the Two-column document option in
Document--Settings...--Text Layout, when I render the document to pdf or
dvi, the two columns are divided as in LTR - the text is written first in
the left column, then in the right column. As this is good for English
and/or any other LRT langugae, it's awfully wrong in Hebrew, which is
written RTL.

further more, I can't seem to make the title, author and abstract layouts to
come before the two-columns splitting.

Here's a link to a tar.gz containing pdf and lyx file examples of the issue:
http://uploading.com/files/2d865245/two-column_example.tar.gz/

If anyone can help with these two issues, I'll be very thankful.

All the best,

Equation array and two column layout

2008-11-25 Thread Julio Rojas
Dear all, I'm finishing a paper with the two columned article class. I
have a problem with some equation arrays that are two big for this
format. They span over the other column or over the margins, even with
an smaller font (\scriptstyle). What can I do to solve this problem?
Should I use an even smaller font (\scriptscriptstyle)? How can I
break the line in an equation array and put the right hand of the
array under the first part, but slightly to the right?

The kind of equation array I'm using is conditional:

d= a+b, if a1
 a-b, if a1
 0,if a=1

Hope you can help me.

Re: Equation array and two column layout

2008-11-25 Thread Vittorio Zuccala'
Hello Julio,
i do not know if i've understood your question.
Anyway, probably you can be interested one of this...

First solution:
press CTRL+L entering in ERT mode and then:
\begin{eqnarray}
d = a + b, if a1 \nonumber \\
= a-b, if a1 \nonumber \\
=0, if a=1 \nonumber
\end{eqnarray}

Second solution (i think better for you):
press CTRL+L entering in ERT mode and then:
$$ d = \left\{
\begin{array}{rl}  a+b \mbox{ if a1} \\
a-b \mbox{ if a1} \\
0 \mbox{ if a=1} \\
\end{array}
\right. $$


I hope it'll be usefull for you.
Bye,
   Vittorio

Re: Equation array and two column layout

2008-11-25 Thread Julio Rojas
Thank you Vittorio. What I would like with this matrix is that the
right column can overfill the left one and viceversa. That way I can
have the long equations and the cases in two lines (eq. on the left
column, cases on the right column) every other line.

d= a+b+c+d+e+f+g
if a,b,c,d,e,f,g 1
 a-b-c-d-e-f-g
if a,b,c,d,e,f,g1

With this arrangement I can include the equations in just one column

Re: Equation array and two column layout

Thanks Vittorio, but this solution is not the one I'm looking for. I
would like the right column to be right aligned and the left column to
be left aligned. When I do that with your solution (changing the rl
to lr) this turns our to be the original matrix I started with. As I
said, I need the right column to overfill the left one in order to
make the equation fit inside one column of the document.

Anyways, thank you very much.

Two Column Question

2007-09-13 Thread Bruce Pourciau
A colleague of mine has a LaTeX question. In the past (about five  
years ago), he would use \twocolumn[header text], with the title,  
author, and abstract substituted in as the header text, to get the  
title, author, and abstract at the top of the page and written across  
the width of the page before the two columns begin. Now he's been  
trying to do the same thing and it's producing error messages about  
missing braces.


Anyone know what the problem might be? Has there been a change in the  
syntax requirement for \twocolumn?


Thanks for any suggestions,

Bruce

Works fine for me.  Sample doc attached.  Maybe he's using a package 
that redefines the twocolumn command?

Two Column Question

2007-09-13 Thread Bruce Pourciau
A colleague of mine has a LaTeX question. In the past (about five  
years ago), he would use \twocolumn[header text], with the title,  
author, and abstract substituted in as the header text, to get the  
title, author, and abstract at the top of the page and written across  
the width of the page before the two columns begin. Now he's been  
trying to do the same thing and it's producing error messages about  
missing braces.


Anyone know what the problem might be? Has there been a change in the  
syntax requirement for \twocolumn?


Thanks for any suggestions,

Bruce

One-column page in two-column book?

2004-07-09 Thread George Ellenburg
Hello,
I have a book that I'm writing using the standard Book document layout, 
with each chapter as separate include files.

In the defaults for the layout, the book is set for two columns.  
However, there is one chapter at the very beginning (a prologue) that 
I'd prefer to be typeset as one column.

Is there any way to override the default layout for a single file/ 
chapter only?

Try the easy method first. Just put  \onecolumn in ERT before the prologue and 
\twocolumn in ERT after the prologue. However this method might misbehave and 
give unexpected results

The more capable method  is the multicol environment. You need to insert in 
the  latex pretext  \usepackage{multicol}. This environment do not play well 
with floats that do not span the whole page (the wide floats).

How do I chage from one-column to two column and vice versa?

2004-06-17 Thread Sung Nae Cho
Hello,

I am writing a paper in REVTeX4 using two column mode.  Some of my equations 
are too big and I need to switch to one-column mode, then return to double 
column mode.  How do I do this?  I have played with ERT inset, but I do not 
think I am doing this correctly.  For example, to switch to single-column 
mode, I have put ERT inset right before the long equation in LyX,

\begin{onecolumn}   ERT
my long equation in LyX
\end{onecolumn}  ERT

I am not even sure if the commands in ERT are written correctly for I have no 
access to latex guide at the moment.  I have been spoiled by user 
friendliness of LyX!  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

Yours sincerely,
Sung Nae Cho,

two-column mode

2002-12-15 Thread Francesco Menoncin
Hi

I am writing a book with LATEX. The index is properly made in a two-column mode.
Nevertheless my editor wants the two last columns of the index to end at the same lane 
of the page.

My latex creates the last page like:

A   W
...  
B   Z
...  
C
...

While my editor wants:

A   V
...  
B   W
...  
C   Z
...  

How can I solve this problem.

Thank you!
