Komascript: changing parameters in stdlayouts.inc to vary parskip

[Richard Brown]

I'm using komascript book, which if I understand aright calls stdlayouts.inc
to get its basic parameters.

In one of the environments, (verse) i want a different vertical space
between every line of the poems. I think each poem line is defined as a
separate paragraph. So I decided to change parskip in stdlayouts.inc for the
verse environmment. I put

Style Verse
# LaTeX type is first dynamic because of LaTeX implementation.
# In LyX this does not make sense.
Category  MainText
LatexType Environment
LatexName verse
MarginFirst_Dynamic
NextNoIndent  1
LeftMargin
LabelIndent   
ParSkip   0.05
TopSep0.7
BottomSep 0.7
ParSep0.3
Align Block
AlignPossible Block, Left
LabelType No_Label
End

But nothing happens, nothing at all. The original values I changed from were

ParSkip 0.4
ParSep 0.5

Where is my logic wrong?

Re: announce: template to write Ph.D. theses with LyX

Dear Alex. That might be a good idea, but I think elyxer needs to
mature a little bit more before turning it into the default converter
for  MS Word. For example, it doesn't handle math macros at all, which
I use constantly. For more simpler documents it's fine, I think.

Best regards.

Re: Spell checker

[Julio Rojas]

Dear Marshall, I tried every possible trick with Aspell and
CocoAspell, to no avail. The work, but it's like the dictionary is
empty. A very bad experience.

There are not enough testers and developers using MacOS X and I think
we lag behind in usability. Right now I don't have enough time, But I
hope this changes my mid year.

Until then, I hope someone gets to the solution. Best regards.

Re: Spell checker

[Micha Feigin]

I initially had the same problem on linux. If I recall correctly, when I
compiled lyx 2 for the first time I didn't have the aspell development files
installed (libaspell-dev package under debian) so the configuration run didn't
find it and compiled lyx without aspell support.

I later installed it and recompiled but I also had to delete the .lyx-2.0 user
directory and let lyx reconfigure for it to enable spell support. A simple
reconfigure wasn't enough.

I am seeing two small problems with the inline spell checker though
1. It's leaving around some of the red wigly lines, they are not fully cleaned
up properly when not needed any more
2. It won't work inside some of the inset (lyx note comes to mind, don't recall
about others) as it's popping up the inset menu instead of the spell menu. The
two menus should be combined

Re: Typesetting poetry

[Richard Brown]

Thanks for that Steve. I followed your tutorials, and learned a fair
amount: but in the end I found that the new environment I had made had
knock-on effects on the paragraphs surrounding those where I applied it-
effects I couldn't explain or remove. I hope there's a simpler way.

Re: Koma-script question

[stefano franchi]

For future reference (and thanks to Peter Flynn of the Latex user group),
using absolute instead of relative font sizes plus the selectfont command
solves the problem:

\addtokomafont{caption}{fontsize{8}{10}\selectfont}

It smacks a bit of finger painting, but works well.

 I know I can change the font size with

 Does anyone know how to solve the problem? I could not find the answer in

Spellcheck: alternative language

[Peter]

Hi, 

I tried to install the spellcheck function in lyx on my Windows VISTA and got 
it working for the English language. But it just won't work for other languages 
although the dictionaries are installed. 
I went to Tools - Preferences - Spellchecker and I typed in the Alternative 
language field: de (for german)
Lyx found my de-common.multi file - that is for sure, since I once changed it 
to de-comm.multi and Lyx gave me an error message (as expected). 
So, typing de in the alternative language DOES have the effect that Lyx needs 
my German dictionary, but it DOES NOT have the effect that it also uses it. 
That is the problem. Lyx always uses the English dictionary no matter what I 
type in as a alternative language (I also tried it out with French and 
Spanish). 
After hours of uninstalling, installing and googling I am really frustrated. 
Could you please help me? 

Best regards

Peter

LyX 1.6.5 claims Bera fonts not installed

[Richard Talley]

I had been running LyX 1.6.3 with MacTeX 2008 under OS X 10.5.x and created
a number of documents using the three Bera fonts.

Recently, I downloaded, installed and updated MacTeX 2009. I also grabbed
the MacTeXtras; it came with LyX 1.6.5 so I installed that also.

Now LyX doesn't see that the Bera fonts are available (they show as 'not
installed' in Documents - Settings - Fonts). If I switch back to MacTeX
2008 (which I have not uninstalled but would like too) and reconfigure LyX,
these fonts still show as not installed.

MacTeX 2008 and 2009 most definitely do come with the Bera fonts installed;
all the correct files appear to be there.

I really need to convince LyX 1.6.5 that these fonts are indeed installed
and available, as I need to re-edit some documents and have them print using
the same standards that I was already using for this series of documents.
(And yes, I did re-run 'sudo texhash', just in case, and ran the
LyX-installer that comes on the LyX-1.6.5-Mac-Universal.dmg.)

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I haven't yet downgraded to LyX 1.6.3;
I guess that might be my next step in troubleshooting.

Thanks,

 1. What is your PATH Prefix? (LyX  Preferences  Paths  PATH Prefix)

That's as it should be.

 2. From within Terminal.app, try:

 kpsewhich bera.sty

 Does it return the path to your installation of bera? (If not, then
 it's a MacTeX issue.)

 Yes, it returns this:
 /usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/tex/latex/bera/bera.sty

That's good.

 3. Again in Terminal.app, try:

 /path/to/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/configure.py

 (substituting the appropriate thing for /path/to -- the default
 would be /Applications). Paste the output into an e-mail to the
 list.

 Here's the output (same thing as appears in ~/Library/Application
 Support/LyX-1.6/configure.log when I run LyX - Reconfigure).

 +checking for package bera [bera]... yes

This says it has found the bera fonts. So you should have access to
them in Document  Settings  Fonts. (Are you sure you don't?)

At this point, I'm baffled.

Suppressing page numbers in lyx 1.6.5

[Jim Rockford]

I'm running Lyx on Windoze 7 (64bit).  I was under the impression that the
following document style setting will suppress page numbers:

Document -- Settings -- Page Layout -- Headings Style -- empty

However, in the single-page document (article style) that I'm currently
working on, I still get the page number 1 at the bottom of the page when I
generate the PDF.  Am I doing something wrong?  Are there alternative
methods for suppressing page numbers?

Thanks,
Jim

I can compile branch with Qt 4.6.2, so it isn't 4.6.2. What's the gcc

Thanks for your help.

I think that the indication that the Bera fonts are not installed is just a
symptom of a deeper problem; I appear to have lost all font control. No
matter what fonts I choose, I get a pdf that has the default LaTeX fonts.
Something is badly screwed up in my TeX installation; I'm going to get rid
of it and start over.

Your comments were still useful; I learned several things about trouble
shooting my installation.

You're doing it correctly, and it should work (works fine for me here).  You
might try View  View Source, click the option for complete source, and verify
that \pagestyle{empty} shows up early in the LaTeX code. Other than that, is
there anything funky in your preamble that might be overriding the page style
command?

 Then, there are still moc_*.cpp files left that were

I used to think that macros were impossible to handle, but now I think
they can be done without excessive trouble. I am planning to support

Re: BibLaTeX style: quot;{cite.0:[biblabel]} has been referenced but does not existquot; warning

[Piero]

 When the biblatex styles creates some op. cit, ibid., etc. it needs a new 
 latex run ro get the cross-references right. LyX does not understand that. 
 Maybe in the 2.0 version it is fixed, but I don't know. 

Ouch...

me any problem, till now?

Re: Blogging with LyX

[Jack Desert]

More progress has been made in Blogging with LyX. 

Thanks Alex for helping me discover that I had a really outdated
version of eLyXer in my original tests. The latest version of eLyXer
does an elegant job of formatting my code, so I have switched to it as
my LyX to HTML converter. You can read about my experience and
download my latest source code for LyxBlogger at 
http://letseatalready.com/2010/03/17/lyxblogger/


Short Description: 
Lyxblogger makes it very easy to publish your LyX-formatted document in
a WordPress blog or other Internet posting. It uses eLyXer to convert
your document to html, then uses Xclip to copy that html to your
clipboard for easy pasting into a new blog entry.

Komascript: changing parameters in stdlayouts.inc to vary parskip

[Richard Brown]

I'm using komascript book, which if I understand aright calls stdlayouts.inc
to get its basic parameters.

In one of the environments, (verse) i want a different vertical space
between every line of the poems. I think each poem line is defined as a
separate paragraph. So I decided to change parskip in stdlayouts.inc for the
verse environmment. I put

Style Verse
# LaTeX type is first dynamic because of LaTeX implementation.
# In LyX this does not make sense.
Category  MainText
LatexType Environment
LatexName verse
MarginFirst_Dynamic
NextNoIndent  1
LeftMargin
LabelIndent   
ParSkip   0.05
TopSep0.7
BottomSep 0.7
ParSep0.3
Align Block
AlignPossible Block, Left
LabelType No_Label
End

But nothing happens, nothing at all. The original values I changed from were

ParSkip 0.4
ParSep 0.5

Where is my logic wrong?

Re: Spell checker

[Micha Feigin]

I initially had the same problem on linux. If I recall correctly, when I
compiled lyx 2 for the first time I didn't have the aspell development files
installed (libaspell-dev package under debian) so the configuration run didn't
find it and compiled lyx without aspell support.

I later installed it and recompiled but I also had to delete the .lyx-2.0 user
directory and let lyx reconfigure for it to enable spell support. A simple
reconfigure wasn't enough.

I am seeing two small problems with the inline spell checker though
1. It's leaving around some of the red wigly lines, they are not fully cleaned
up properly when not needed any more
2. It won't work inside some of the inset (lyx note comes to mind, don't recall
about others) as it's popping up the inset menu instead of the spell menu. The
two menus should be combined

 Hi all



 I have downloaded the latest version of Lyx for windows and having
 troubles
 installing the spell checker function on my windows 7 machine. I
 installed Aspell on to my computer and found that the spell checker
 still fails to work. I also have obtained the latest English
 dictionaries and placed them under Aspell program data under folders
 data and dictionary and still obtain
 errors while using lyx.



 The current error that I obtain when trying to use the spell checker
 is  Spellchecker cannot be loaded,
 C:\programdata\aspell\Dictionaries/en-common.rws cannot be opened for
 reading

 I have searched on google, Lyx, Aspell, wiki documents  and found
 nothing. During this time of trying to actually solve this problem,
 there is a clear
 lack of documentation for installing Aspell and installing the
 dictionary files for windows as the program is more Linux orientated.



 As other guides state you should copy the dictionaries into the Aspell
 directory, is this correct? Other guides in linux state you should
 compile these dictionaries. So I am currently confused on what i am
 suppose to do.



 Is there any chance of someone providing a  step by step
 instructions for installing Aspell and dictionaries on to lyx for
 windows? Or providing information in correcting my problem.





 Thanks



 Daniel

Re: Typesetting poetry

[Richard Brown]

Thanks for that Steve. I followed your tutorials, and learned a fair
amount: but in the end I found that the new environment I had made had
knock-on effects on the paragraphs surrounding those where I applied it-
effects I couldn't explain or remove. I hope there's a simpler way.

Re: Koma-script question

[stefano franchi]

For future reference (and thanks to Peter Flynn of the Latex user group),
using absolute instead of relative font sizes plus the selectfont command
solves the problem:

\addtokomafont{caption}{fontsize{8}{10}\selectfont}

It smacks a bit of finger painting, but works well.

 I'd like to have captions in table and figures in a smaller font size *and*

 I know I can change the font size with


 \addtokomafont{caption}{\smaller}


 in the preamble, but this command does not touch the leading space. If, for
 instance, the main document is 12pt one-half space, I end up with  ugly

 Does anyone know how to solve the problem? I could not find the answer in

Spellcheck: alternative language

[Peter]

Hi, 

I tried to install the spellcheck function in lyx on my Windows VISTA and got 
it working for the English language. But it just won't work for other languages 
although the dictionaries are installed. 
I went to Tools - Preferences - Spellchecker and I typed in the Alternative 
language field: de (for german)
Lyx found my de-common.multi file - that is for sure, since I once changed it 
to de-comm.multi and Lyx gave me an error message (as expected). 
So, typing de in the alternative language DOES have the effect that Lyx needs 
my German dictionary, but it DOES NOT have the effect that it also uses it. 
That is the problem. Lyx always uses the English dictionary no matter what I 
type in as a alternative language (I also tried it out with French and 
Spanish). 
After hours of uninstalling, installing and googling I am really frustrated. 
Could you please help me? 

Best regards

Peter

LyX 1.6.5 claims Bera fonts not installed

[Richard Talley]

I had been running LyX 1.6.3 with MacTeX 2008 under OS X 10.5.x and created
a number of documents using the three Bera fonts.

Recently, I downloaded, installed and updated MacTeX 2009. I also grabbed
the MacTeXtras; it came with LyX 1.6.5 so I installed that also.

Now LyX doesn't see that the Bera fonts are available (they show as 'not
installed' in Documents - Settings - Fonts). If I switch back to MacTeX
2008 (which I have not uninstalled but would like too) and reconfigure LyX,
these fonts still show as not installed.

MacTeX 2008 and 2009 most definitely do come with the Bera fonts installed;
all the correct files appear to be there.

I really need to convince LyX 1.6.5 that these fonts are indeed installed
and available, as I need to re-edit some documents and have them print using
the same standards that I was already using for this series of documents.
(And yes, I did re-run 'sudo texhash', just in case, and ran the
LyX-installer that comes on the LyX-1.6.5-Mac-Universal.dmg.)

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I haven't yet downgraded to LyX 1.6.3;
I guess that might be my next step in troubleshooting.

Thanks,

Suppressing page numbers in lyx 1.6.5

[Jim Rockford]

I'm running Lyx on Windoze 7 (64bit).  I was under the impression that the
following document style setting will suppress page numbers:

Document -- Settings -- Page Layout -- Headings Style -- empty

However, in the single-page document (article style) that I'm currently
working on, I still get the page number 1 at the bottom of the page when I
generate the PDF.  Am I doing something wrong?  Are there alternative
methods for suppressing page numbers?

Thanks,

Thanks for your help.

I think that the indication that the Bera fonts are not installed is just a
symptom of a deeper problem; I appear to have lost all font control. No
matter what fonts I choose, I get a pdf that has the default LaTeX fonts.
Something is badly screwed up in my TeX installation; I'm going to get rid
of it and start over.

Your comments were still useful; I learned several things about trouble
shooting my installation.

You're doing it correctly, and it should work (works fine for me here).  You
might try View  View Source, click the option for complete source, and verify
that \pagestyle{empty} shows up early in the LaTeX code. Other than that, is
there anything funky in your preamble that might be overriding the page style
command?

 And all other files ending with _moc.cpp in the

 If you open one of these files you'll see the following:
 
 #error This file was generated using the moc from 4.5.1.
 It
 #error cannot be used with the include files from this
 version of Qt.
 #error (The moc has changed too much.)
 
 Which is probably the error message you get.

 Dear Alex. That might be a good idea, but I think elyxer needs to
 mature a little bit more before turning it into the default converter

I used to think that macros were impossible to handle, but now I think
they can be done without excessive trouble. I am planning to support
them in the not-too-distant future. Also I have plans for creating one
page per section (with navigation links between them) and support for
MathML; both of these features are in varying stages of completion.

I will let the list know when they are ready. Today I am releasing

 seriously, when you dont report the exact error there is no
 way how to help.

Excuse me. When I responded to Vincent I believed to do it with copy to the 
list.
As Vincent says the error message is:
This file was generated using the moc from 4.5.1. It
cannot be used with the include files from this
version of Qt.
(The moc has changed too much.)

Before ./configure I put
make clean

my gcc is 4.3.x if my memory does not fail to me (I am not in front of my 
computer now).

Maybe not everything is cleaned.

Please manually remove the following *_moc.cpp files:
src/support/SignalSlotPrivate_moc.cpp
Src/frontends/qt4/Action_moc.cpp
Src/frontends/qt4/BulletsModule_moc.cpp
Src/frontends/qt4/CustomizedWidgets_moc.cpp
Src/frontends/qt4/EmptyTable_moc.cpp
.. Etc.

And all other files ending with _moc.cpp in the
src/frontends/qt4/ directory.

If you open one of these files you'll see the following:

#error This file was generated using the moc from 4.5.1.
It
#error cannot be used with the include files from this
version of Qt.
#error (The moc has changed too much.)

Which is probably the error message you get.

Vincent
 

Yes! This is the error message.

   

Try make clean  make distclean, or even try a fresh checkout.

Re: BibLaTeX style: quot;{cite.0:[biblabel]} has been referenced but does not existquot; warning

[Piero]

 When the biblatex styles creates some op. cit, ibid., etc. it needs a new 
 latex run ro get the cross-references right. LyX does not understand that. 
 Maybe in the 2.0 version it is fixed, but I don't know. 

Ouch...
but how could it be that I used a some biblatex ibid. styles and it never 
gave 
me any problem, till now?
Thanks for the info.

Re: Blogging with LyX

[Jack Desert]

More progress has been made in Blogging with LyX. 

Thanks Alex for helping me discover that I had a really outdated
version of eLyXer in my original tests. The latest version of eLyXer
does an elegant job of formatting my code, so I have switched to it as
my LyX to HTML converter. You can read about my experience and
download my latest source code for LyxBlogger at 
http://letseatalready.com/2010/03/17/lyxblogger/


Short Description: 
Lyxblogger makes it very easy to publish your LyX-formatted document in
a WordPress blog or other Internet posting. It uses eLyXer to convert
your document to html, then uses Xclip to copy that html to your
clipboard for easy pasting into a new blog entry.

Komascript: changing parameters in stdlayouts.inc to vary parskip

[Richard Brown]

I'm using komascript book, which if I understand aright calls stdlayouts.inc
to get its basic parameters.

In one of the environments, (verse) i want a different vertical space
between every line of the poems. I think each poem line is defined as a
separate paragraph. So I decided to change parskip in stdlayouts.inc for the
verse environmment. I put

Style Verse
# LaTeX type is first dynamic because of LaTeX implementation.
# In LyX this does not make sense.
Category  MainText
LatexType Environment
LatexName verse
MarginFirst_Dynamic
NextNoIndent  1
LeftMargin
LabelIndent   
ParSkip   0.05
TopSep0.7
BottomSep 0.7
ParSep0.3
Align Block
AlignPossible Block, Left
LabelType No_Label
End

But nothing happens, nothing at all. The original values I changed from were

ParSkip 0.4
ParSep 0.5

Where is my logic wrong?

Yes, just be sure to run eLyXer with the --html flag, either
standalone or changing the converter line from within LyX:
  Tools > Preferences > External formats > Converters > LyX to HTML > Converter:
just add the --html option as the first one:
  elyxer.py --html --directory $$r $$i $$o
or
  python -m elyxer.py --html --directory $$r $$i $$o

In fact, I don't see why eLyXer should not be the default Word
exporter. Uwe, do you think it would be worthwhile to send a patch to
that effect?

Alex.

Re: announce: template to write Ph.D. theses with LyX

[Julio Rojas]

Dear Alex. That might be a good idea, but I think elyxer needs to
mature a little bit more before turning it into the default converter
for  MS Word. For example, it doesn't handle math macros at all, which
I use constantly. For more simpler documents it's fine, I think.

Best regards.

Re: Spell checker

Dear Marshall, I tried every possible trick with Aspell and
CocoAspell, to no avail. The work, but it's like the dictionary is
empty. A very bad experience.

There are not enough testers and developers using MacOS X and I think
we lag behind in usability. Right now I don't have enough time, But I
hope this changes my mid year.

Until then, I hope someone gets to the solution. Best regards.

Re: Spell checker

[Micha Feigin]

I initially had the same problem on linux. If I recall correctly, when I
compiled lyx 2 for the first time I didn't have the aspell development files
installed (libaspell-dev package under debian) so the configuration run didn't
find it and compiled lyx without aspell support.

I later installed it and recompiled but I also had to delete the .lyx-2.0 user
directory and let lyx reconfigure for it to enable spell support. A simple
reconfigure wasn't enough.

I am seeing two small problems with the inline spell checker though
1. It's leaving around some of the red wigly lines, they are not fully cleaned
up properly when not needed any more
2. It won't work inside some of the inset (lyx note comes to mind, don't recall
about others) as it's popping up the inset menu instead of the spell menu. The
two menus should be combined

Dear All,
It might not sound professional, but try removing all the Lyx files and 
update Miktex, then install LyX again...

Hope it helps...

Re: Typesetting poetry

Thanks for that Steve. I followed your tutorials, and learned a fair
amount: but in the end I found that the new environment I had made had
knock-on effects on the paragraphs surrounding those where I applied it-
effects I couldn't explain or remove. I hope there's a simpler way.

Re: Koma-script question

[stefano franchi]

For future reference (and thanks to Peter Flynn of the Latex user group),
using absolute instead of relative font sizes plus the selectfont command
solves the problem:

\addtokomafont{caption}{fontsize{8}{10}\selectfont}

It smacks a bit of finger painting, but works well.

Spellcheck: alternative language

[Peter]

Hi, 

I tried to install the spellcheck function in lyx on my Windows VISTA and got 
it working for the English language. But it just won't work for other languages 
although the dictionaries are installed. 
I went to Tools - Preferences - Spellchecker and I typed in the Alternative 
language field: de (for german)
Lyx found my de-common.multi file - that is for sure, since I once changed it 
to de-comm.multi and Lyx gave me an error message (as expected). 
So, typing "de" in the alternative language DOES have the effect that Lyx needs 
my German dictionary, but it DOES NOT have the effect that it also uses it. 
That is the problem. Lyx always uses the English dictionary no matter what I 
type in as a alternative language (I also tried it out with French and 
Spanish). 
After hours of uninstalling, installing and googling I am really frustrated. 
Could you please help me? 

Best regards

Peter

LyX 1.6.5 claims Bera fonts not installed

[Richard Talley]

I had been running LyX 1.6.3 with MacTeX 2008 under OS X 10.5.x and created
a number of documents using the three Bera fonts.

Recently, I downloaded, installed and updated MacTeX 2009. I also grabbed
the MacTeXtras; it came with LyX 1.6.5 so I installed that also.

Now LyX doesn't see that the Bera fonts are available (they show as 'not
installed' in Documents -> Settings -> Fonts). If I switch back to MacTeX
2008 (which I have not uninstalled but would like too) and reconfigure LyX,
these fonts still show as not installed.

MacTeX 2008 and 2009 most definitely do come with the Bera fonts installed;
all the correct files appear to be there.

I really need to convince LyX 1.6.5 that these fonts are indeed installed
and available, as I need to re-edit some documents and have them print using
the same standards that I was already using for this series of documents.
(And yes, I did re-run 'sudo texhash', just in case, and ran the
LyX-installer that comes on the LyX-1.6.5-Mac-Universal.dmg.)

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I haven't yet downgraded to LyX 1.6.3;
I guess that might be my next step in troubleshooting.

Thanks,

-- Rich

Have you tried reconfiguring LyX? (LyX > Reconfigure) I have MacTeX
2009, and the Bera fonts are properly recognized by LyX.

even numbered title page getting numbered

[Sajjad]

Hello forum,

I am working with report class and managed to configured it so  that
Abstract, Acknowledgement and each chapter starts with odd numbering page.

I have inserted "clear doublepage " before each of them.


Now the even page of the Title page is also getting numbered and i do not
want that.


Any hint to remove that?

This says it has found the bera fonts. So you should have access to
them in Document > Settings > Fonts. (Are you sure you don't?)

At this point, I'm baffled.

Suppressing page numbers in lyx 1.6.5

[Jim Rockford]

I'm running Lyx on Windoze 7 (64bit).  I was under the impression that the
following document style setting will suppress page numbers:

Document --> Settings --> Page Layout --> Headings Style --> empty

However, in the single-page document (article style) that I'm currently
working on, I still get the page number 1 at the bottom of the page when I
generate the PDF.  Am I doing something wrong?  Are there alternative
methods for suppressing page numbers?

Thanks,
Jim

I can compile branch with Qt 4.6.2, so it isn't 4.6.2. What's the gcc 
version? And, as Pavel said, what's the error?

Thanks for your help.

I think that the indication that the Bera fonts are not installed is just a
symptom of a deeper problem; I appear to have lost all font control. No
matter what fonts I choose, I get a pdf that has the default LaTeX fonts.
Something is badly screwed up in my TeX installation; I'm going to get rid
of it and start over.

Your comments were still useful; I learned several things about trouble
shooting my installation.

You're doing it correctly, and it should work (works fine for me here).  You
might try View > View Source, click the option for complete source, and verify
that \pagestyle{empty} shows up early in the LaTeX code. Other than that, is
there anything funky in your preamble that might be overriding the page style
command?

 Ok. But, previous to ./configure I run make clean and get
 same error.

  This option supress the headers and footers.
  For page number supress you need to add on the preamble:
 \pagestyle{empty}

I used to think that macros were impossible to handle, but now I think
they can be done without excessive trouble. I am planning to support
them in the not-too-distant future. Also I have plans for creating one
page per section (with navigation links between them) and support for
MathML; both of these features are in varying stages of completion.

I will let the list know when they are ready. Today I am releasing
version 0.42, for those interested you can check out the changelog:

Excuse me. When I responded to Vincent I believed to do it with copy to the 
list.
As Vincent says the error message is:
This file was generated using the moc from 4.5.1. It
cannot be used with the include files from this
version of Qt.
(The moc has changed too much.)

Before ./configure I put
make clean

my gcc is 4.3.x if my memory does not fail to me (I am not in front of my 
computer now).

Maybe not everything is cleaned.

Please manually remove the following *_moc.cpp files:
src/support/SignalSlotPrivate_moc.cpp
Src/frontends/qt4/Action_moc.cpp
Src/frontends/qt4/BulletsModule_moc.cpp
Src/frontends/qt4/CustomizedWidgets_moc.cpp
Src/frontends/qt4/EmptyTable_moc.cpp
.. Etc.

And all other files ending with _moc.cpp in the
src/frontends/qt4/ directory.

If you open one of these files you'll see the following:

#error "This file was generated using the moc from 4.5.1.
It"
#error "cannot be used with the include files from this
version of Qt."
#error "(The moc has changed too much.)"

Which is probably the error message you get.

Vincent
 

Yes! This is the error message.

   

Try make clean && make distclean, or even try a fresh checkout.
