Error with floating graphics
Hi, since converting to LyX 1.5 and OS X 10.5, I have trouble with floating objects. When I remove them all, even large texts ( 250 pages with all fancy formatting) are nicely converted into PDFs, but as soon as I add one embedded graphic, I get this sequence of error messages (one per picture) when I try to produce a PDF from within LyX: Undefined control sequence Missing $ inserted Extra }, or forgotten $ Extra }, or forgotten $ Undefined control sequence I am used to tweaking the LyX file in a text editor, but this is beyond me as I am totally ignorant of LaTeX.

Jurabib - changind fiels order
Hi! I'm writing a thesis in medieval history. I've been using jurabib and Lyx for several years, and the memories of the last days when I had to print my Master memoir are still painful, so this time I'm trying to find a solution for every problem I have in advance! So I think I'll post several messages in the next weeks... Right nom I'm dealing with the appearance of my bibliography. One thing I can't figure out: is it possible to change the order of the fields in the citations and bibliography? For example, for the articles, I have: AUTHOR, Article title, Journal Name, volume, year, number, pages and I would like: AUTHOR, Article title, Journal Name, volume, number, year, pages and I might want to change the order of other things... Is this something easy to do? Here is my setup: \jurabibsetup{ titleformat=italic, titleformat=all, titleformat=commasep, commabeforerest=true, pages=test, ibidem=strict, authorformat=smallcaps, citefull=first, bibformat=ibidem, bibformat=compress, } \renewcommand{\numberandseries}[2]{\space (coll. #2)} \renewcommand{\artnumberformat}[1]{, \no~#1} \renewcommand{\pernumberformat}[1]{, \no~#1} \renewcommand{\artvolumeformat}[1]{vol.~#1,} \renewcommand{\pervolumeformat}[1]{, vol.~#1} \renewcommand{\artyearformat}[1]{ #1} \renewcommand{\peryearformat}[1]{, #1} \renewcommand{\volumeformat}[1]{vol.~#1,} \renewcommand{\osep}{;\space} \renewcommand{\jbtitlefont}{\textit} \renewcommand{\jbapifont}[1]{\og#1\fg} \renewcommand{\bibJTsep}{} \renewcommand{\jbauthorfnfont}{\normalfont} \renewcommand{\bibfnfont}{} \renewcommand{\bibefnfont}{} \renewcommand{\biblnfont}{\textsc} \renewcommand{\bibelnfont}{\textsc} \renewcommand{\bibtfont}{\textit} \renewcommand{\bibbtfont}{\textit} \renewcommand{\bibjtfont}{\textit} \renewcommand{\bibapifont}[1]{\og#1\fg} \renewcommand{\bibauthormultiple}{---,\space} \renewcommand{\bibbtsep}{dans } \renewcommand{\bibansep}{, } \renewcommand{\bibatsep}{,} \renewcommand{\bibbtasep}{ et } \renewcommand{\jbbtasep}{ et } \renewcommand{\Bibbfsasep}{, } \renewcommand{\jbbfsasep}{, } \renewcommand{\bibbstasep}{, et } \renewcommand{\jbbstasep}{, et } _ Envoyez avec Yahoo!

Re: Error with floating graphics
Dear Paul, thanks for your reply, and for pointing me to this feature! Yes, it says the graphics package is installed. This I copied from the document: 5.4 graphicx MM Found: yes MM CTAN: macros/latex/required/graphics/ However, I could not use a Postscript version of my picture (I use a PNG instead). In the document window I get an error message that it can not be converted, and when I try to convert to a PDF, I get a notice that ghostscript crashed because a library could not be found (libXt.6.dylib). I'm writing this because in the text of section 5.4 it says that the graphics package is needed to display Postscript, so the installation looks incomplete. Now I just re-installed the whole teTeX package. The installer did not need additional space (indicating to me that all packages were already in place), but now at least gs finds its library. The picture still can't be displayed in LyX, though, and all error messages stay unchanged! What can I do now? Peter Am 06.04.2008 um 15:56 schrieb Paul A.

I do not think this is the source of the error messages, but it cannot hurt to check. Second, what happens if you insert a graphic directly into a document (without using a float)? You might try inserting one of your image files into a new document to test. Do you still get the error message? Third, when you get an error message, the LaTeX log file should indicate where the error occurred. Just above the first undefined control sequence line should be a portion of a source line, indicating what it was that LaTeX thought was an undefined control sequence. Please post that. /Paul

Anyway, as a humanities student I still find Jurabib a lot easier than Natbib in terms of configuring. And Biblatex will be even more configurable.

For example, for the articles, I have: AUTHOR, Article title, Journal Name, volume, year, number, pages and I would like: AUTHOR, Article title, Journal Name, volume, number, year, pages Easy solution, is to enter in your bib file in the volume field something like 54:2 or 54, 2 if you want a comma and I might want to change the order of other things... Is this something easy to do? Well you can hack the jurabib bst to change the order of fields. Hacking jurabib is not that easy because part of the formatting is done in the bst file and part in the jurabib latex macro. Another solution is to jump on the biblatex boat. Biblatex is much cleaner and easier to hack but : - there is no 'archive' type yet - export to MsWord through tex4ht does not work yet - the documentation is very 'German', comprehensive but not very practical For medievalists, it would also be nice to have a 'manuscript' type and a 'critical edition' type. If you are starting writing the thesis, I would go the biblatex way. Cheers, Charles

Hyphenation problem with two languages
Hello I have a problem with hyphenation when I use two or more character sets in the same document. If i leave the English as the default document language the hyphenation does not work, when the text is in another language (i.e Greek). When I select Greek as the default language the hyphenation does work but then only Greek characters are displayed, and in order to display English I have to use tex commands or to use the text style button which is inconvenient. Can I do anything about it? Thank you in advance for you help sn
Chapter counter position in layout.
Hi, I'm trying to define a layout file for my dissertation. I haven't started adding anything and just copied the report layout as a starting point. While reading through all files included in this layout, I noticed something strange. The label for Chapter is displayed differently from those of Part, Section, Subsection, etc. The label (e.g., Chapter 1) appears above the text, but the label for everything else appears to the left. However, I couldn't find anything in the layout files that defines the chapter label position (above or in the same line) differently from the rest of the sections labels. Can someone tell me how to move the label for chapter to the left? (This does not affect the functionality or the compiled output in any way, but I'm just curious because the counter appears to the left of the chapter name in the dissertation style of our university.) Thanks, Jinghua Zhong

Re: Error with floating graphics
Dear Paul, thanks for your reply, and for pointing me to this feature! Yes, it says the graphics package is installed. This I copied from the document: 5.4 graphicx MM Found: yes MM CTAN: macros/latex/required/graphics/ However, I could not use a Postscript version of my picture (I use a PNG instead). In the document window I get an error message that it can not be converted, and when I try to convert to a PDF, I get a notice that ghostscript crashed because a library could not be found (libXt.6.dylib). I'm writing this because in the text of section 5.4 it says that the graphics package is needed to display Postscript, so the installation looks incomplete. Now I just re-installed the whole teTeX package. The installer did not need additional space (indicating to me that all packages were already in place), but now at least gs finds its library. The picture still can't be displayed in LyX, though, and all error messages stay unchanged! What can I do now? Peter Am 06.04.2008 um 15:56 schrieb Paul A.

You might try inserting one of your image files into a new document to test. Do you still get the error message? Third, when you get an error message, the LaTeX log file should indicate where the error occurred.

Hyphenation problem with two languages
Hello I have a problem with hyphenation when I use two or more character sets in the same document. If i leave the English as the default document language the hyphenation does not work, when the text is in another language (i.e Greek). When I select Greek as the default language the hyphenation does work but then only Greek characters are displayed, and in order to display English I have to use tex commands or to use the text style button which is inconvenient. Can I do anything about it? Thank you in advance for you help sn
Chapter counter position in layout.
Hi, I'm trying to define a layout file for my dissertation. I haven't started adding anything and just copied the report layout as a starting point. While reading through all files included in this layout, I noticed something strange. The label for Chapter is displayed differently from those of Part, Section, Subsection, etc. The label (e.g., Chapter 1) appears above the text, but the label for everything else appears to the left. However, I couldn't find anything in the layout files that defines the chapter label position (above or in the same line) differently from the rest of the sections labels. Can someone tell me how to move the label for chapter to the left? (This does not affect the functionality or the compiled output in any way, but I'm just curious because the counter appears to the left of the chapter name in the dissertation style of our university.) Thanks, Jinghua Zhong

converter to open office
Dear Lyx users, Trying to use the Lyx converter to Openoffice, no odt file is generated in my temp folder... The following thread seems to deal with this http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg58801.html Is there something new? Thanks for your help, S.

Hyphenation problem with two languages
Hello I have a problem with hyphenation when I use two or more character sets in the same document. If i leave the English as the default document language the hyphenation does not work, when the text is in another language (i.e Greek). When I select Greek as the default language the hyphenation does work but then only Greek characters are displayed, and in order to display English I have to use tex commands or to use the text style button which is inconvenient. Can I do anything about it? Thank you in advance for you help sn
Chapter counter position in layout.
Hi, I'm trying to define a layout file for my dissertation. I haven't started adding anything and just copied the report layout as a starting point. While reading through all files included in this layout, I noticed something strange. The label for Chapter is displayed differently from those of Part, Section, Subsection, etc. The label (e.g., "Chapter 1") appears above the text, but the label for everything else appears to the left. However, I couldn't find anything in the layout files that defines the chapter label position (above or in the same line) differently from the rest of the sections labels. Can someone tell me how to move the label for chapter to the left? (This does not affect the functionality or the compiled output in any way, but I'm just curious because the counter appears to the left of the chapter name in the dissertation style of our university.) Thanks, Jinghua Zhong

Hostility and cynicism. A very nice way of answering a totally naive question. Good for you Mr. Heck.

www.lyx.org/test temporarily down (renamed..)
Hi, I've renamed all wiki pages from e.g. Main.HomePage -> Web.HomePage this means that the URI http:/www.lyx.org/test/HomePage no longer works, as it is automatically mapped to http://www.lyx.org/test/index.php/Main/HomePage ^""^ You can however access the lyx web pages through http://www.lyx.org/test/wiki/index.php/Web/HomePage Jean-Marc, could you modify /etc/httpd/virtual.d/www.lyx.org.conf so that the line AliasMatch ^/test/([?A-Z].*) /home/lyx/www/www-user/test/index.php/Main/$1 instead reads AliasMatch ^/test/([?A-Z].*) /home/lyx/www/www-user/test/index.php/Web/$1 Regards, Christian -- Christian Ridderström, +46-8-768 39 44 http://www.md.kth.se/~chr
