I posted already a similar question; however, is there an easy way to collect ALL footnotes throughout the book at the END of the book without doing anything tho the footnotes themselves (i.e. something in the preamble)? Wolfgang

keyboard customization
Is there an easy description of keyboard customization for lyx around (customization 4.4 ff is beyond me)? I tried to use my € sign, which is on the keyboard and works with a normal editor, but not in lyx (nothing is printed if the key is pressed). I tried to set it somehow via preferences-view-keyboard-enter keyboard table first-check- choose keyboard table where I can choose between european.kmap, german.kmap, german-2.kmap... but after having tried this I messed up the keystrokes so that e.g. I had to press twice the dot in order to get it on the screen. It is too confusing for me and I would appreciate a hint Thanks Wolfgang

is it correct to have here the extracted package xkeyval

did you run texhash?
yes
I also did reconfigure and since this did´nt help used the Windows-way of

But all in vain so far.
by the way, do I run texhash under root or my account or does this not matter?

The output of the article style in the References section

German references this is not tolerable. I am sure there is a way round in
jabref, but I dont know how to do that. Of course I could use {B} etc in the

The control sequence at the end of the top line

misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.
I guess its now not liking the bib entrances which contain {X} (remember I

Some .bst styles require additional packages in the document preamble. In
this case, add

how to get rid of empty page

What do you want to achieve? If you only want to switch between
twocolumn and onecolumn mode insert \twocolumn or \onecolumn as ERT
where you want to switch. This will start a new page. Also have a look
at the multicol documentation (texdoc multicol on unix).
the question is, whether I have to disable in the documentpages the twocolumn
selection
or whether the multicols overrides it, if I use
\begin{multicols}{1}
somewhere in the text
and close it with
\end{multicols}
and am I than back again in twocolums?
Should perhaps add, that all my text is in twocolumn, just on two occassions I
want onecolumn for just a few pages.
I could try out all this, but my experience is that I muddle everything up and
its takes ages until I am through. So if you could just give me a hint for
the placement

Rich,
as I said: I have twocolumn throughout, except for a few pages.
The reason, I can´t do it with the normal twosided selection in the

is that if I enter \onecolumn here text \twocolumn
is that it puts an empty page inbetween which I can´t use.
That is the reason that I use \multicols, as suggested by Karsten and Herbert.

citations and references

There were, however, some mistakes I made and I tried to correct them by changing the we.dbj file (which should later be converted to we.bst by running lated we.dbj). MY QUESTION: In the dbj file the different decisions are given as e.g.: %STYLE OF CITATIONS: % %: (def) Numerical as in standard LaTeX ,ay%: Author-year with some non-standard interface % ,alph%: Alpha style, Jon90 or JWB90 for single or multiple authors % ,alph,alf-1%: Alpha style, Jon90 even for multiple authors % ,alph,alf-f%: Alpha style, Jones90 (full name of first author) % ,cite%: Cite key (special for listing contents of bib file) %--\ans=a(==ay)--- I guess, I have to add % in % ,ay%: Author-year with some non-standard interface and remove the first % in the line above if I want the (def) version %: (def) Numerical as in standard LaTeX is this correct and does the second % in this line stay? Where do I have to make a change in order to get (Miller 2001) As I have it now it is (Miller (2001)) whereas cited by Miller (2001) is correct. Can I do this from outside the bst file and if not, where in the dbj would be the place for the change? makebst is a nive tool, but for the unexperienced partly not easy to understand.

\bibpunct does not differentiate between the brackets around the year and
those around the whole citation. So you have to use two different cite
styles, or add the brackets manually.
so far I have imported the bib file via jabref. But if I click on the
particular citation box which should give

in the text is e.g.:
and daylength\index{daylength} correlate
at the end of the file is:
\printindex{}
\end{document}
Lyx produced in the tmp-directory a .ind file with
\begin{theindex}
\item annual clock, 2
\item apex, 6
\item autonomous pathway, 6, 9
.
.
.
\item vernalization pathway, 9
\end{theindex}
If I run the tex file under latex,
the index is not shown.
So I guess I have to do it in a somewhat similar way as with the bibliography
entrance. But I am not sure were to place the content of the .ind in the .tex
file.
does it go in the {} of
\printindex{}
?
Help in this matter would be very much appreciated

Re: Flow Chart Drawing For LaTeX/LyX
http://www.maa.org/editorial/mathgames/mathgames_08_01_05.html in the list for vector drawing programs Pyx is missing, which one should also consider. http://pyx.sourceforge.net/ Wolfgang Lists a lot of drawing programs. The program I read most recommended is OmniGraffle (4 Pro) which comes with Macs. I'm also envious of BBedit. -- Stephen Thank you for that link, Stephen. It looks like I'll find a lot of useful stuff there. However, at least some of the information on it is incorrect. For example, Dia has been available on Linux for *at least* 6 years, though that webpage claims it's only available for Windows. People should probably look in to each of those programs if they look at all interesting, regardless of what OS they use. Curtis
Re: user interface study of lyx
In preparation for the class, I plan to post a separate questionnaire to the lyx-users and lyx-devel lists. I welcome any comments about this. Again, my intent is to have this be a contribution to the lyx project. I am currently working with a colleague on a book chapter using lyx, me on linux platform, he on microsoft. There are some problems on his side (e.g. exporting to pdf) with which I can´t help him. I think, it would be very helpful in such and similar cases to have a linux livesystem on CD which contains all the necessary programs needed for writing documents with lyx such as tex stuff, spellchecker, vector and pixel oriented graphics (xfig, PyX, PStricks..), chemical formulas, bibtex related things such as JabRef or Pybliographer, presentations (beamer..). There is a nice book by Rainer Hattenhauer (2005), Linux-Livesysteme (published by Galileo Computing) - alas in German (perhaps translated in the meantime?) which gives detailed instructions and could serve as a basis. One could just insert this CD in the computer, start the system, work with it, save the produced documents on the computer, and thats it. I think this would be a nice project also for your students ... Wolfgang

jabref and lyx
sorry for a slightly off-topic question:
I am using jabref for entering references in my lyx file.
Some of the author entrances in the bib-file are embraced by {author} and
listed separately from the non-embraced author entrances, which I do not
want. example:
author1
author3
author4
{author2}
{author5}
{author6}
what I want:
author1
{author2}
author3
author4
{author5}
{author6}
I would like to either have the embraced entrances treated equally to the
unembraced ones or to remove in an easy way all the {} -signes. Can this be
done in JabRef? I did not find an answer in the JabRef 1.8.1 Handbook of
Wassenhoven. I tried to register at
http://www.openusability.org/account/register.php
but my EMail address is refused there respectively my password entered is not
accepted. Has anyone an answer or was able to register successfully?

Re: jabref and lyx
Quoting Dominik Waßenhoven [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I just looked into it again. If you don't need the double braces, JabRef offers an option to automatically remove them when you load a file. In German it's Optionen - Einstellungen - Beim Laden doppelte geschweifte Klammern um BibTeX-Felder entfernen. If you activate this option, load your .bib file, and save it, the double brackets should have gone. HTH, Dominik.- Thanks, Dominik, Thats it. I should have checked the options more carefully.

Re: Historical question
Oh, no, I don't still use that version. But I got more involved after I found the program (who here remembers when Matthias called it LyriX?) I think he called it first Lynx - which was already used... Wolfgang The name was changed because someone contacted Matthias threatening to sue, that name having been taken for a word processor of some sort.

index issue
If I index two (or more) words following each other, I usually mark them and
select 'index entry' (german: Stichwort). To make the word(s) appear
emphasized in the index, I use @\emph{xx} as shown below in the example (as
Liviu told me, thanks again).
If this is done with word(s) which is (are) already emphasized I get a double
entry of the words in the index, e.g.
Oxalis, 62
Oxalis, 71
where both are correctly emphasized.
It should, however, show
Oxalis, 62,71
I traced the tex output and found this:
\section{Mouvement foliaire de \emph{Oxalis regnellii}}
[EMAIL PROTECTED] montrer les mouvements foliaires
So apparently the whole index-item-box was emphasized (first \emph) in
addition to the emphasized word. My solution was, to mark in Lyx my
'index entry' (Stichwort)-box and use ctr e (for the emphasis on/off
switch).
Since it took me some time to find out I thougth to report it here.
I wonder whether this is a bug in Lyx.

in my index the page numbers of some of the same entrances are not shown behind each other. They belong to cases where emphasis is desired, e.g. [EMAIL PROTECTED] on page 33 and [EMAIL PROTECTED] on page 42 leads to Lolium, 42 Lolium, 33 instead of Lolium, 33,42 I have also exported the tex file from the Lyx file and run latex several times with the hope, that the index file will be correct in this way, but in vain. Strangely, there are other plant names which occur twice on different pages and they are displayed correctly. In these cases the earlier pages are displayed first, as they should (and not Lolium, 42 Lolium, 33 as in the given example. Has somebody an idea whats going wrong? Wolfgang
