That depends on what you need. It's quite easy to rotate table cell content
in an arbitrary angle: just go to the table properties. So, if you need to
rotate just short texts, use a table of one cell and no borders. If you
need something else, please describe what you need in more detail.

Regards,
Ricardo

Re: Rotate text

Hello Carlos.

To rotate a text in the middle of a paragraph go to
Document->Settings->Modules.
In there add a module called GraphicBoxes. Afterwards go to Insert->Custom
Insets and click on RotateBox.
Now there should be an inset layout with an argument titled "angle". In the
argument write the desired angle that you want the text to be rotated, and
inside the layout itself the text to be rotated. For more information and
examples you can read  section 5.8.1. of the Embedded Objects guide, which
you can find in Help-> Embedded Object.

Regards,
Udi

Templates storage

2022-06-27 Thread Rich Shepard

Here, the default LyX template directory is /usr/share/lyx/templates. I have
some templates in ~/.lyx/templates/. If I move the latter to the former will
I lose them in an upgrade?

TIA,

Rich

Question-answer font style module?

2022-06-27 Thread Rich Shepard

The 2nd edition of The LaTeX Companion is quite old, and the 3rd edition is
not expected until the end of the year. Is there a module with different
font style environments for questions (bold) and answers (default)?

Re: Tufte Handout class handling of citations broken by LyX v2.3.6.2

2022-06-27 Thread Trevor Jenkins
It appears (in that it works) that the solution to my issue back in April 2022 
is

Document > Settings > Local Layout 

Input ../citeengines/basic.citeengine

Validate

Hey presto. New LyX documents using class Tufte Handout that contain citations 
in them are again formatted as expected. 

Regards, Trevor.
