On the one hand there is the idea of the LyX-document bundle or package. On the other hand it would make sense to automate version control for master-child documents and included stuff independent of document bundling. Stephan

Fine.
This is very cool, but I think one should look at a Request for Feature,
because this situation is surely not unique :-)-O
You could consider writing a LyX module that provides an inset
(instead of the ERT) and puts the required code in the preamble if the
inset is used. (See HelpCustomization on hwo to do this.)

How do I avoid luatex defaults?
I haven't used LyX for some time and when I did so today I found that it was using luatex as the default for exporting pdf files. This produced errors. I evntually found how to return to the previous choice (pdflatex) but is there any way to configure LyX to use the previous representation of choices fir File - Export? I couldn't find anything in Preferences.

Using siunitx with LyX
I am trying to use the package siunitx for correct typesetting of SI
units with LyX. However, I run into a problem when attempting to enter
a number with units in math mode.
In LaTeX, one would enter
$a = \SI{50}{\metre\per\second\squared}$
However, in LyX, the second set of curly braces does not seem to be
associated with the initial command, which leads to them being escaped
with backslashes, thus:
$a = \SI{50} \{ \metre\per\second\squared \} $
This does not render correctly.
Is there any way around this?
I am using LyX 2.0.0RC1 on Windows XP, but please let me know if this
is possible in 1.6!
Thanks!

Article class: printed text is relatively small + Book class issues
Hello fellow Lyxers, I've been using the article (default) class to write my documents; am still learning LyX. Today was the first time i print out a LyX written document it looks great but for the text size. It is readable but would like it to be more like the text size of the user guide when printed. I just tried copying my document into a new LyX file choosing book from the Document settings; when I compared the dvi between the article class the book class, all the differed is the section subsection sizes but not the standard text. Is this how it should be ? Will it be similar to the user guide when printed ? Moreover, the numbering of the sections subsections reset started with 0 instead of 1. Why is that how can it be fixed ? One last thing I noticed in the book-based document is that the pages (after the contents page) all display a CONTENTS header. Again, why is how to fix that ? You help is appreciated P.S.: I tried subscribing to: lyx-users@lists.lyx.org but I received a failure reply. Might it be related to my subscription in the digest ? thanks -- Sincerely Yours, -Bob Merhebi Thunderbird Signature

I'm personally most comfortable with the old icons, but I can see arguments for both the other sets. The Libreoffice icons are surely destined to become very well known as Libreoffice replaces Openoffice as the most widely used replacement for MS Office, and this will make them familiar to most new users of LyX. Oxygen has the goal of “Make a break with the past and go in a new direction, leaving behind the cartoonish and childish look of previous graphics”, and certainly this is a worthy goal. On balance, as I don't have strong feelings as a user, I should vote for the one which will be of most use to LyX as a community for the longest time. That must surely be Oxygen.

LyX2.0RC2--Error when including same file twice
Hi LyXers, When I try to include the same file twice, LyX gives this error: Could not load included file '~/filename.lyx' Please, check whether it actually exists. (Note: This error seems to have been introduced between RC1 and RC2 (LyX 2.0). I did not have this error with any of the betas or RC1.) To reproduce: 1. Layout ANY (I reproduced with both Article and Report KOMA Script) 2. Make new file and test file to be included. 3. Insert File Child test_include.lyx 4. Repeat step 3. 5. Compile PDF; get error. 6. Note that this error does not seem to stop the compile. (Why would I want to include the same file twice? Because I had made a blank flyleaf for the front and back of the document---the blank page had a simple white graphic. However, I was able to reproduce the error using any file included twice.

You could consider writing a LyX module that provides an inset

Using siunitx with LyX
I am trying to use the package siunitx for correct typesetting of SI
units with LyX. However, I run into a problem when attempting to enter
a number with units in math mode.
In LaTeX, one would enter
$a = \SI{50}{\metre\per\second\squared}$
However, in LyX, the second set of curly braces does not seem to be
associated with the initial command, which leads to them being escaped
with backslashes, thus:
$a = \SI{50} \{ \metre\per\second\squared \} $
This does not render correctly.
Is there any way around this?
I am using LyX 2.0.0RC1 on Windows XP, but please let me know if this
is possible in 1.6!
Thanks!

Re: Poll for the default icon theme in LyX 2.0
Nice efforts! Thank you to the team. I like the new themes but I am not completely convinced by the informativeness of several icons in both of them. I have tried both in RC2 and I observe that I have voted even before you ask, by establishing the old theme :-) As a consequence, I vote for the old set. Murat 2011/3/30 Pavel Sanda sa...@lyx.org Dear LyX users and developers, after long struggle the new relase contains two new icon themes and and some people want to give to LyX 2.0 new and shiny face.

Article class: printed text is relatively small + Book class issues
Hello fellow Lyxers, I've been using the article (default) class to write my documents; am still learning LyX. Today was the first time i print out a LyX written document it looks great but for the text size. It is readable but would like it to be more like the text size of the user guide when printed. I just tried copying my document into a new LyX file choosing book from the Document settings; when I compared the dvi between the article class the book class, all the differed is the section subsection sizes but not the standard text. Is this how it should be ? Will it be similar to the user guide when printed ? Moreover, the numbering of the sections subsections reset started with 0 instead of 1. Why is that how can it be fixed ? One last thing I noticed in the book-based document is that the pages (after the contents page) all display a CONTENTS header. Again, why is how to fix that ? You help is appreciated P.S.: I tried subscribing to: lyx-users@lists.lyx.org but I received a failure reply. Might it be related to my subscription in the digest ? thanks -- Sincerely Yours, -Bob Merhebi Thunderbird Signature

So I'm opening the poll right now, anyone interested can reply to this thread with - old - libreoffice - oxygen I don't have strong feelings about this. I'm personally most comfortable with the old icons, but I can see arguments for both the other sets. The Libreoffice icons are surely destined to become very well known as Libreoffice replaces Openoffice as the most widely used replacement for MS Office, and this will make them familiar to most new users of LyX. Oxygen has the goal of “Make a break with the past and go in a new direction, leaving behind the cartoonish and childish look of previous graphics”, and certainly this is a worthy goal. On balance, as I don't have strong feelings as a user, I should vote for the one which will be of most use to LyX as a community for the longest time. That must surely be Oxygen.

Re: Poll for the default icon theme in LyX 2.0
I vote: Oxygen That said, I think the entire view/update toolbar could use some work, particularly with Oxygen icon set. I like the other icons on oxygen better, by enough I'll go with it. If I had my choice, I'd use oxygen for everything but that view/update toolbar. It's probably not that easy though. Jacob

On 2011-03-30, Andrew Steele wrote:
I am trying to use the package siunitx for correct typesetting of SI
units with LyX. However, I run into a problem when attempting to enter
a number with units in math mode.
In LaTeX, one would enter
$a = \SI{50}{\metre\per\second\squared}$
However, in LyX, the second set of curly braces does not seem to be
associated with the initial command, which leads to them being escaped
with backslashes
There are two ways around this problem:
a) Write a = \SI{50}{\metre\per\second\squared}, highlight and press
Ctrl-M.
b) Write \{ when you want a non-escaped {
(LyX switches the input convention of literal and grouping bracket).
