Maybe you need to use natbib to have \citet?

 Hi everyone,

 I've been trying to use biblatex-chicago with Lyx 2.0 and biblatex-biber

 still no success. I want to use the footnotes style citations. Lyx finds
 the .bib database and I can enter a citation, but in author-date style,
 not in the notes style I need.

 I get this error message when I try to compile:

 The control sequence at the end of the top line

 misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct

 This is what I have in the preamble:

 \bibliography{/home/lat/notes-test}

 \usepackage[notes]{biblatex-chicago}


 In settings/modules I have biblatex-citation-styles selected.

 In settings/Bibliography/citation style I have natbib author-date selected.

 In settings/Bibliography/Bibliography Generation/processor I have biber
 selected.

 In tools/preferences/output/latex/processor I have biber selected.

 I'm beginning to think I have something installed wrong. Is there a
 step-by-step how-to doc on installing biblatex, biblatex-biber and
 biblatex-chicago to get it to work properly with Lyx?

 I've reinstall biblatex, biblatex-biber, and biblatex-chicago with the
 latest versions. On a bare bones file I now get:

 Undefined control sequence.

I have never played with multiple column documents, but you have at
least Document  Settings  Page layout  Two sided document and
Orientation  Landscape. Look in the modules and on the wiki on how
LaTeX allows several columns on one page.
Two-sided will not give you multiple columns.  It changes the default 
margins and placement of page numbers so the document can be printed up 
double-sided, bound on the left, and have the page numbers and margins 
appropriately arranged.


What you want is the multicolumn package.  I do this with ERT, but 
perhaps it could be added to LyX -- although I don't think you would 
want to display it that way within LyX; it'd be a mess with the margins.


There is a setting within LyX to set the entire document as a two 
column document, in Document  Settings  Text Layout, but I use the 
ERT to set parts of the document as multi-column, and this way you can 
set up as many columns as you want.


Add \usepackage{multicol} to your preamble.  Then, when you want to turn 
on multi-column (3 column in this case) text, enter  
\begin{multicols}{3}  in ERT, and then \end{multicols} to return to 
single-column layout.

Re: biblatex-chicago

[Julio Rojas]

Louis, you also need to state the natbib option while loading
biblatex-chicago (page 3 of the manual, citep and citet are commands
implemented in natbib):

\usepackage[notes,autocite=footnote,natbib]{biblatex-chicago}

I don't have biber, but I believe that would be more than enough to
make it work. Regards.

 Yes.

 The .lyx and .bib files are attached.

 The record I tried to cite is:

 @Book{adorno:benj,
   title =      {The Complete Correspondence, 1928--1940},
   publisher =      hup,
   year =      1999,
   author =      {Adorno, Theodor W. and Benjamin, Walter},

   shorttitle = {Complete Correspondence},
   annote =      {A published collection of letters, in a Book entry
   rather than Letter. References to it would be by
   page rather than by individual letter.}
 }

 I've also attached the lyx log file, just is case you need it. I notice that
 there is no test-biblatex.bbl file. Does that make any difference?

 Many thanks for your help!

 Louis

I have never played with multiple column documents, but you have at
least Document  Settings  Page layout  Two sided document and
Orientation  Landscape. Look in the modules and on the wiki on how
LaTeX allows several columns on one page.
Two-sided will not give you multiple columns.  It changes the default 
margins and placement of page numbers so the document can be printed up 
double-sided, bound on the left, and have the page numbers and margins 
appropriately arranged.


What you want is the multicolumn package.  I do this with ERT, but 
perhaps it could be added to LyX -- although I don't think you would 
want to display it that way within LyX; it'd be a mess with the margins.


There is a setting within LyX to set the entire document as a two 
column document, in Document  Settings  Text Layout, but I use the 
ERT to set parts of the document as multi-column, and this way you can 
set up as many columns as you want.


Add \usepackage{multicol} to your preamble.  Then, when you want to turn 
on multi-column (3 column in this case) text, enter  
\begin{multicols}{3}  in ERT, and then \end{multicols} to return to 
single-column layout.

Re: biblatex-chicago

[Julio Rojas]

Louis, you also need to state the natbib option while loading
biblatex-chicago (page 3 of the manual, citep and citet are commands
implemented in natbib):

\usepackage[notes,autocite=footnote,natbib]{biblatex-chicago}

I don't have biber, but I believe that would be more than enough to
make it work. Regards.

 Yes.

 The .lyx and .bib files are attached.

 The record I tried to cite is:

 @Book{adorno:benj,
   title =      {The Complete Correspondence, 1928--1940},
   publisher =      hup,
   year =      1999,
   author =      {Adorno, Theodor W. and Benjamin, Walter},
   editor =      {Lonitz, Henri},
   translator =      {Nicholas Walker},
   location =  {Cambridge, MA},
   shorttitle = {Complete Correspondence},
   annote =      {A published collection of letters, in a Book entry
   rather than Letter. References to it would be by
   page rather than by individual letter.}
 }

 I've also attached the lyx log file, just is case you need it. I notice that
 there is no test-biblatex.bbl file. Does that make any difference?

 Many thanks for your help!

 Louis

Second-hand reference

[Julio Rojas]

Dear all, is there a way to automatically make second-hand references
using biblatex? I mean, should I create a biblatex entry for the
second hand reference and make something like
\cite{Smith1985}{\cite{Watson1932}, cited by}?

Regards.

I have never played with multiple column documents, but you have at
least Document>  Settings>  Page layout>  Two sided document and

"Two-sided" will not give you multiple columns.  It changes the default 
margins and placement of page numbers so the document can be printed up 
double-sided, bound on the left, and have the page numbers and margins 
appropriately arranged.


What you want is the multicolumn package.  I do this with ERT, but 
perhaps it could be added to LyX -- although I don't think you would 
want to display it that way within LyX; it'd be a mess with the margins.


There is a setting within LyX to set the entire document as a "two 
column document", in Document > Settings > Text Layout, but I use the 
ERT to set parts of the document as multi-column, and this way you can 
set up as many columns as you want.


Add \usepackage{multicol} to your preamble.  Then, when you want to turn 
on multi-column (3 column in this case) text, enter  
\begin{multicols}{3}  in ERT, and then \end{multicols} to return to 
single-column layout.

Re: biblatex-chicago

[Julio Rojas]

Dear Louis, I would like to help you, but today I'm kind of busy. Can
you send an small example file (full preamble, bib file with one
reference, text with the reference) so I can take a look at it?

Regards.

PS: I suppose that you are using Lyx 2.0, aren't you?

Re: biblatex-chicago

[Julio Rojas]

Louis, you also need to state the natbib option while loading
biblatex-chicago (page 3 of the manual, citep and citet are commands
implemented in natbib):

\usepackage[notes,autocite=footnote,natbib]{biblatex-chicago}

I don't have biber, but I believe that would be more than enough to
make it work. Regards.
