text wrap figure misbehaving
I have a text wrap figure that is inserted at the beginning of a paragraph. After the paragraph, I have an enum environment with three items. These span a page break. The second item correctly wraps around the figure, but the third item is confused. An example output that illustrates the problem, with some comments in the output, is available at http://drop.io/zkjqlmd I couldn't attach it because the LyX mail server rejected the attachment... Any suggestions to fix this problem? Space is at a premium here, so I would prefer not to have the figure as a regular float. James

For images, I prefer to use a pgfpicture environment, load the image and then use TikZ/PGF commands to annotate. Here's a sample: \begin{center} \begin{pgfpicture}{0mm}{0mm}{50mm}{50mm} \pgfdeclareimage[height=30mm,width=40mm]{myImage}{path_to_image} \pgfputat{\pgfpoint{25mm}{25mm}}{\pgfbox[center,center]{\pgfuseimage{myImage}}} \color{red}\pgfsetlinewidth{5pt} \pgfcircle[stroke]{\pgfpoint{25mm}{25mm}}{15mm} \pgfline{\pgfpoint{14.4mm}{14.4mm}}{\pgfpoint{35.6mm}{35.6mm}} \end{pgfpicture} \end{center} This loaded a JPEG or PNG file and drew a red circle around it with a diagonal slash through it (the international symbol for stop). I imagine something similar would work with text -- perhaps putting the text in TikZ nodes (with or without visible borders). The tricky thing about annotating text is that the annotations tend to be static, so you can't afford to have the text shift around. I tend to think that means write the text in as some sort of image, not just ordinary LaTeX text. But I'm no expert on things LaTeX. /Paul
\renewcommand conflicts with ams?
I am trying to alter the format of section headings. I have something like \renewcommand{\subsection}{ % \...@startsection{subsection}{2}{0pt} % {1.1ex plus 2.0ex minus 1ex}% {1.2ex plus 2.0ex minus 1ex} % {\bfseries} % } However, if I the AMS math package gets included by LyX, then any subsection* constructs break. Is this a known conflict with AMS? A simple recipe to reproduce: 1. add the above renewcommand to the document LaTeX preamble. 2. create a subsection and subsection* environment 3. In document settings - math options, disable AMS. This compiles fine. Now replace step 3 above by enabling AMS. Now the subsection* environments are broken. I have attached a simple LyX file that can serve as a basis for testing. It is currently configured to break. newfile2.lyx Description: Binary data
