references between child documents
Hi, I'm using Lyx for a few weeks and have a few child documents. I'd like to reference a Chapter of child document A in child document B. I've a label in the chapter of child document A the one I want to reference. I've tried to use latex package xr but without positive results (probably I did it wrong in document LaTeX preamble). Can you help in making this work? Thanks, Joao

I've a label in the chapter of child document A the one I want to reference. Just open both documents in the LyX editor. In the Insert reference window, you can then choose in a drop-down box the document that contains the label you want to refer to. LyX automatically merges the references from all child documents in this window if you also open the master document. Daniel

If you open the parent document first and from it the child documents (right-click on the Include button and click on open, or just compile the parent), the InsertReference dialog should sport a combo-box to choose between the child documents.

Hi, I'm using Lyx for a few weeks and have a few child documents. I'd like to reference a Chapter of "child document A" in "child document B". I've a label in the chapter "of child document A" the one I want to reference. I've tried to use latex package xr but without positive results (probably I did it wrong in document LaTeX preamble).
