How to make a clone of the Enumerate environment?
Hi all, I'm trying to make a simple clone of the Enumerate environment. Once I can do that, I'll make a few changes. But I've not been able to clone it. Here's my layout file: #% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this # \DeclareLaTeXClass[book]{quizbook} Input stdclass.inc Preamble \let\questions = \enumerate \let\oldquestions = \oldenumerate EndPreamble Style Questions MarginStatic LatexType Item_Environment LatexName questions NextNoIndent 1 LeftMarginMMN LabelSep xx ParSkip 0.0 ItemSep 0.2 TopSep0.7 BottomSep 0.7 ParSep0.3 Align Block AlignPossible Block, Left LabelType Enumerate End The preceding layout produces the output shown in the attached screenshot_questions.gif. However, if I change the LatexName in the LyX environment from "questions" to "enumerate", it outputs as shown in the attached screenshot_enumerate.gif. Can somebody explain to me why the two don't output the same? Can somebody explain how I can truly clone the Enumerate environment? NOTE: In order to toggle the output when switching between LatexType questions and LatexType enumerate, you must Tools->reconfigure and then terminate and restart LyX. Trust me on this -- I tried without reconfiguring and the output didn't toggle. Thanks SteveT Steve Litt Recession Relief Package http://www.recession-relief.US <><>

I don't have the achemso package, so I can't say for sure, but probably not. The \bibliographystyle command dictates what BibTeX style file (.bst) is used to format the references, not the in-text citations. If the achemso package includes a .bst file, you will want to select it (changning "plain" to whatever it's called, presumably "achemso"). The \usepackage{achemso} command is employed to load a style file (achemso.sty) that, I assume, helps format the in-text citations. Go to Document -> Settings... -> Bibliography and make sure that, in the Citation Style are, Default is selected. Other than that, I'm not sure what you can do to encourage LaTeX to see and use the achemso style file. /Paul

Lyx/MacTex Integration
Anybody working on that? Since Lyx requires some flavor of LaTex to work, and MacTex is the taste our host prefers, it makes sense to me to combine the two. And all the apps and utilities recommended for use with MacTex. Start by determining what isn't necessary in an integrated app, then work out how to put everything together in a package. All things considered I think you'll find such a Lyx Grand a smaller file than what you have to deal with now, and so easier to deal with. Just a thought, play with as you wish.
Fwd: Colombia Normas Icontec
Hi. I suscribed to the list because I need some help to work with Lyx and the Colombian norms for documents. First of all, I would like to know if any of you have worked with these norms (maybe a colombian user). I searched through the mail archive and found a thread regarding this topic. If someone has used Lyx for these norms, it would be of great help if he could guide me a little. Anyway, if it's necesary, I could start doing it myself and the thread I found showed some links to create a documentclass. I'm just trying not to re-invent the wheel. Ark

You can do this in presentation mode of Acrobat or another PDF viewer of your choice, or you can use a dedicated PDF presentation program such as keyJnote, which adds some nifty features useful especially for presentations (such as zooming in, spotlight, all-slides-preview, etc.).

Hello LyX testers, I uploaded an installer for the fourth beta release of the upcoming LyX version 1.6.0 for Windows. NOTE: LyX 1.6 is in beta state! That means it is stable enough for a beta test release, but expect inconsistencies and regressions. This preview release is build for interested LyX users who want to check out the new features of LyX. The new features of LyX are listed here: http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX16 ! THIS LYX VERSION SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR ANYTHING ELSE THAN TESTING ! - The installer for this version can be downloaded from: https://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=5117&release_id=14892 (General infos about the installer can be found here: http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinInstaller ) This LyX version can be installed side by side to an existing LyX 1.5 installation when you unchek the installer option update the ".lyx" file extension settings. It will be installed as "LyX 1.6.0beta4". Installer Changelog: - Version 4.06 - LyX 1.6beta4 (http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg141829.html) (list of current regressions: http://tinyurl.com/yu4the ) (list of current crashes and critical bugs: http://tinyurl.com/653prg) - Important note: Due to a bug in LyX you are first be able to export documents to e.g. PDF after opening the preferences dialog and clicking there on the save button. happy testing and best regards Uwe
LyX version 1.6.0 (beta 4) is released
Public release of LyX version 1.6.0 (beta 4) === We are glad to announce the release of LyX 1.6.0 (beta 4). Compared with the latest stable release, this is the culmination of one year of hard work, and we sincerely hope you will enjoy the results. This release is the last planned beta release in the path that leads to 1.6.0, the beta status is thus an indication of the development stage and so we advise care when using this release. Please back up your work before using this release as it should be generally done in a beta release. The next scheduled release is rc1 (the first release candidate). As usual with a major release, a lot of work that is not directly visible has taken place. The core of LyX has seen more cleanups and some of the new features are the direct results of this work. The new features in LyX 1.6 are detailed in http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX16 The file RELEASE-NOTES lists some known issues with this release compared to the latest stable release (LyX 1.5.5). An updated list of issues might later be found at http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/ReleaseNotes You can download LyX 1.6.0beta4 here (the .bz2 are compressed with bzip2, which yields smaller files): ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/lyx-1.6.0beta4.tar.gz ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/lyx-1.6.0beta4.tar.bz2 Note that due to the amount of changes no patch is provided to upgrade from version 1.5.5. Prebuilt binaries (rpms for linux distributions, Mac OS X and Windows installers) should soon be available at ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/ If you find what you think is a bug in LyX 1.6.0beta4, you may either e-mail the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel @ lists.lyx.org), or open a bug report at http://bugzilla.lyx.org If you're having trouble using the new version of LyX, or have a question, first check out http://www.lyx.org/help/. If you can't find the answer there, e-mail the LyX users' list (lyx-users @ lists.lyx.org). Enjoy! The LyX team.
