I don't know how you can influence the space after an itemize (without

Why not use vertical space with e.g. -1em instead?
(to omit ERT)

I am not sure. At least they seem to have a slightly different effect 
space-wise. I have seen the \\[-1em] elsewhere but actually I don't know 
whether it has any benefits over the other.

Hello Michael: Could you post a MWE so that we can check on other OS?

In the old days when I was preparing docs in LaTeX (dvi to ps to pdf,
without LyX), I remember having issues with the page size occasionaly,
but not similar to the problem you are experiencing. This still seems to
me a problem with the printer drivers-or PDF viewer, or I would say this

Are you sure you use the correct paper settings (A4 vs letter) as your printer?

Hello Kornel,

reading your message I shouted "Heureka, that's it!" But when I checked 
I found that the paper settings were set correctly to A4 in both, the 
printer and the document settings. So, the search must go on ;-) (if it

Thanks. I am not sure why the fourier package has this effect. It is 
definitely not a problem with LyX itself.


There are actually two packages

1. fourier, which LyX uses when setting the font under Document > 
Settings > Fonts, and


2. utopia.

The fourier package has the effect that you see on your output. Maybe 
this is some (known?) problem with the package? You can also try to ask 
the question on http://tex.stackexchange.com


Maybe an alternative would is to use utopia instead? So rather than 
choosing the package via Document > Settings > Fonts you add


\usepackage{utopia}

to your Document > Settings > Preamble.

Page margins

[Steve Hnizdur]

Hi

I've been noticed some odd behaviour when the page margins are changed 
from the class defaults. This has caused me some annoyance with marginal 
notes.


Attached is MWE1.lyx which is a simple document using the class default 
margins and with the showframe package and its output is MWE1.pdf.


MWE2.lyx is identical except that the top margin has been changed. Lyx 
has inserted


\usepackage[a4paper]{geometry}
\geometry{verbose,tmargin=5cm}

in the preamble.

The output MWE2,pdf is not what I had expected as the side margins have 
changed and the marginal note area is now much nearer the edge. Indeed 
if say the outer margin is changed in Document Settings then the 
marginal area can almost disappear altogether.


I solved this to some extent as in MWE3.lyx where I stopped Lyx 
inserting the geometry pack by setting local layout, and then put


\usepackage[a4paper,includemp]{geometry}
\geometry{verbose,tmargin=5cm}

in the preamble. I.e. the same as Lyx did but with an extra option.

The output MWE3.pdf is better but still not just a change to the header 
margin.


The includemp could have been includeall with a slight difference to the 
output.


So, should Lyx automatically include this option in the usepackage call 
or is there a much neater way to do what I want, i.e. change the header 
margin without changing anything else.


Sorry for the length. Couldn't think of a shorter way to describe this.

Cheers

page of floats margins

[Liviu Andronic]

Dear all,
I'm writing a document in which I'd like to keep default page margins
but for the page of floats. I have some floats with very wide tables
that do not get properly centered using default page margins. So is it
possible to set custom page margins for the page of floats? And can I
make certain page of floats use landscape mode?

Regards,
Liviu

Subject: removing the margins whe adding a graphic



Hello again,

I have also another problem.

I add a PDF file as graphic but due to the paragraph margins, it appears at
the right of the document. I used \noindent but did not work. Any
suggestions?

Re: Margins in the beginning of the chapter

[Marcelo Acuña]

 
I've written a documment, using the book Koma-Script class. I need to 
put some specific margins in my document, so I indicated the space in 
this option for that in my document. 

But my problem is that when each chapter begins (also in the index), lyx puts 
the name of this chapter with too muchtop margin, and not the same that I've 
put and that is in the page where no chapter begins.

I need to change this margin, in the index as well as in the beginning of the 
each chapter in my document.

If anyone can help me, I would really be grateful.

By the way, I'm from Spain, is there any mailinglist similar to this in 
Spanish?

Thank you.

 You'll have to dig this one by yourself, I can't see how anyone here could

 First, make a backup copy of all your files.

 Then, copy Chapter03.lyx to Chapter05.lyx.
 What's the output like now?

 What does your Chapter05.lyx look like when you compile it separately?

 Try playing a bit, shouldn't be hard to find out where the problem is.

 As a last resort, upload all of your .lyx files (even better, a minimal
 example) somewhere so that we can take a look at them.



The problem seems that disappeared. I only delete the Child documents in
the main lyx file and I included them again and now the margins are
justified.
I do not know how it solves, but seems it's ok now!

Thanks for helping,

section goes into the TOC. It may or may not be numbered.
No latex code needed for either approach.

Menu Document-Settings-Numbering  TOC is what you want.
Here you decide to what level among part,chapter,section,... 
there should be numbers, and to what level they should appear
in the TOC.

No latex, just a user-friendly dialog box.

The default is to use numbering. After you change it, you may
save the new setting as default - very useful if you plan on writing 
most of your future documents without numbering. 

The same goes for all the other document settings - you
can change the default so you won't have to do it again for
the next documents you write.

You can also make empty template documents and save them
to the template folder.

TOC trouble and margins are not followed

[bart deruyter]

Hi all,

I'm trying to typeset my novel, that I want to publish soon. I have started
using lyx because it hides most of the technical stuff, so I can concentrate
on the writing.

But I'm having quite some trouble to get things looking right, things I
thought were handled automatically.

First of all, my TOC remains empty. As I understood, I just had to do
'Insert - list/TOC - Table of contents. I do use the correct paragraph
types, Part, Chapter, section, subsection etc...  so I thought the TOC would
be generated automatically when viewing the pdf, but it does not.

Secondly, a novel is rarely printed on A4, and the company I'd like to ask
to print my book gives a discount on printing on A5 (printing on demand
service) so I thought changing the document setting page size from A4 to A5.
This obviously has a big influence on the flow of the text. My language is
Dutch, and hyphenation is horrible. I do have texlive-lang-dutch installed.
Also, words that can be split sometimes are not, which results in many, many
overfull \hbox (from LaTeX Log). The margins are not followed.

What can I do about these problems? I'm using Linux Mint11, if that extra
information can help.

Do these show up properly under the navigation menu? How about in the

You might also want to check under DocumentSettingsNumbering  TOC.

I'd check the margins, for one thing; the default ones may be too wide
for A5 paper. Also, you may want to reduce the font size. 10 point
should be right.

Hyphenation is entirely a LaTeX issue. Perhaps the hyphenation files for
Dutch just aren't very good. I do not know.

Re: Re: TOC trouble and margins are not followed

[bart . deruyter]

Thanks for the answer,

I fixed the TOC trouble with latex command \addcontentsline, that seems to  
work. I thought that was not necessary in lyx, perhaps I'm wrong.
Setting the font at 10 makes a difference indeed, but it still is not good  
at all.


Can I easily edit the dutch hyphenation file? Perhaps my edits could be  
used as 'update' for others to use too.

I am not sure about this, but you can add you own hyphenation rules via 
commands like:

\hyphenation{for-mat-ting}
These go into the preamble, or into a little package you can import.

Re: TOC trouble and margins are not followed

[bart deruyter]

Writing a book, I decided to use the book class. There are several book
classes, but when adding a table of contents, suddenly all pages had 'Table
of contents' in their header (I still don't understand why). The book class
was the only one working properly, I thought at least.

Why is it so hard to get good typesetting, automatic table of contents
rendering, and plenty of other stuff? I yet have to find one tool that does
the job properly without hassle, adding things, modifying things, looking
for workarounds. There is always something going wrong. I don't want to code
my book, I want to write it.

Don't get me wrong, latex and lyx do a terrific job, but as with many open
source tools there is always something extra that has to be done to get the
job done right. I am actually getting tired of it.

Aparently the latex log file shows this :
Package babel Warning: No hyphenation patterns were loaded for
(babel) the language `Dutch'
(babel) I will use the patterns loaded for \language=0 instead.

I've searched with google, and I've found out some had to un-comment a line  
saying 'dutch nehyph.tex' .
I even did not find those words, but I did find 'dutch loadhyph-nl.tex and  
it already is un-commented.


When changed to hehyph.tex latex still throws the warning as shown above.

Weird, something I'm missing? Did the naming of hyphenation files change?

Re: TOC trouble and margins are not followed

[bart deruyter]

Richard, thanks for your offer to send you the lyx file, but at the moment
it's not necessary.

I think I got the hyphenation working, even though I don't know what I did.
Yesterday evening, last pdf preview it showed the error in the log, now my
pc is rebooted this morning, I take a look again, and hyphenation works as
expected. Perhaps I did something right, but it needed to be reconfigured on
a reboot. No idea why though.

and about the Section* yes, I use these.
Ahh, I get it, I should not have used the unnumbered sections!! What the
hell?

Now that is what I call thinking the wrong way about usability. It's like
with that date thing. Adding the authors name to the title automatically
adds todays date to it. You have to find a menu, somewhere and check
'suppress default date on front page', instead of just inserting 'date' to
your page if you'd want it.

So for an automatic TOC, numbered sections are a requirement. That's quite a
useless restriction. If I didn't wan't a TOC I wouldn't insert one. And I
guess I'll have to add latex code to get rid of the numbering now, right?

Bart

Hyphenation is entirely a LaTeX issue. Perhaps the hyphenation files for
