Beamer

[Jure acimovic]

Hi

I have a question regarding beamer. I have installed Lyx 2.0 and 
everything is working great. The only problem is beamer class. It does 
not want to compile it.


I have tried it on different computers and also with Lyx 1.6.9. The same 
problem. I checked MixTex and all necessary packages are installed. pgf, 
xcolor


Does anyone have any idea what to do?

about the ESC key

[Wei-Dong Lian]

Hello everyone,

I have a small question. The short-key I defined in the
Tools/Preference/Editing/Shortcus does not work in Dialog (e.g. Toc Dialog,
Citation Dialog or other dialogs). Is it possible to leave the self-defined
shortcuts still work in dialogs. Maybe it is a bit tricky, maybe adding a
new key mapping in the base dialog class of all dialogs.
Actually, I just want to use Ctrl+g as Esc to cancel the pop dialog, but
always I need to hit the Esc (very far from the keyboard center).

Any suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

WD

deb for ubuntu lucid?

[Daniel CLEMENT]

Hello,

[sorry if double post--looks like the previous one did not reach the list]

Is there any chance of seeing a .deb file appear for Ubuntu Lucid? So
far I relied on getdeb to get lyx updated, but it looks like getdeb has
somewhat dropped supporting lyx on lucid.

Of course Ubuntu has recent lyx packages but lucid doesn't meet their
dependencies.

OTTH, I'm not so fond at compiling myself, and I see that even on the
lucid-bleed ppa, lyx 2.0.0 failed to build... not very encouraging.

I'm in no hurry to upgrade my Ubuntu. Has anyone successfully compiled
lyx 2 under lucid 64?

TIA for any advice or experience report.

  I've no idea. I use emacs, joe, and lyx for 99.44% of my writing, and
LibreOffice (shudder!) when I need to send a Word-formatted document to a
client or agency.

  I can tell you that both emacs and alpine have a large block cursor, but
the pointer cursor is still the thin I-beam. On a black background it tends
to be more visible. And, working in a virtual console, the trackball is of
limited value.

Hi,
In general there are two places to determine citation engine and styles. 
They are:


1. Document  Settings  Bibliography
and
2. Insert  List / TOC  BibTeX Bibliography

In 1. you can select natbib engine with author/year. In 2. you can 
select a style---but here it gets tricky, since all styles are listed 
but not all of them are natbib-compatible and author/year-compatible. 
Best is to experiment or google for a style which you like.

Re: citation styles

[e-letter]

Does this mean that it is not possible to use a style that is not
compatible with default, natbib or jurabib engines?

Neither of these engines are compatible with author-date style
(http://www.ctan.org/pkg/authordate), causing error message (undefined
controlled sequence).

Ah, thanks for the link. That makes it clear what you want to use. This 
package uses the standard latex command \cite. So, once you have 
installed this package in your latex distribution, you could use it in 
LyX by this procedure:


1. Select the default engine in Document  Settings  Bibliography,
2. put the line
\usepackage{authordate1-4}
in Document  Settings  Preamble,
3. select one of the style (authordate1, authordate2, authordate3, or 
authordate4) in the BibTeX Bibliography settings.

It is sufficient to add an INSET to the name of the chapter, containing 
the following command


\markboth{header}{header}

where, instead of header, you must put the header you want.
Furthermore, if you also want the chapter to appear in the TOC, you 
should add, in the same INSET, the command


\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{title}

where instead of title you must put the title of the chapter.

Re: Sweave Snow Leopard and lyx 2.0

[Yihui Xie]

As far as I know, there is no such a package named literate, and the
Sweave module does not rely on noweb.sty (this seems to be a common
misunderstanding about Sweave in LyX).

I'm sort of lost in the discussion and do not know what is the problem
right now. The Sweave module mainly depends on Rscript, which is part
of R; it has to be in your PATH variable. Sweave.sty may or may not be
required, since the Sweave() function in R will automatically add
something like \usepackage{Sweave} in your LaTeX output. In LyX 2.0.1,
users will not need to worry about Sweave.sty anymore -- it will be
copied from R if LyX cannot see it.

Yihui

 Thanks for the comment about noweb and sweave, I wasn't sure if I needed
 both. I knew I needed Sweave, just not sure about noweb.

 The errror message, as suggested by Julien, was indeed linked to trying to
 load the noweb module. Removing the noweb module fixed the error and fixing
 the path fixed the compile error.

  I don't get this error on Ubuntu so I assume I must have a more complete
 installation on Ubuntu.

 Thanks again Liviu and Julien, a great relief to get this sorted.

Re: Beamer

[Paul Rubin]

It looks as if you might have a problem with a hyperlink.  Have you added any
hyperlinks (beyond the navigational links that beamer provides automatically)? 
If so, you might try deleting them and see if that helps.  Do you have the
hyperref package installed (seems likely, but worth checking)?  Also, does the
problem persist if you select Document  Settings  PDF Properties and select
the Use hyperref support box?

Marcelo,

  I fixed the trackball cursor tracking issue by the simple expedient of
changing the application window's background color by making it much
lighter. The mid-yellow does not have sufficient contrast, changing it to
almost-white makes a huge difference.

submitting paper in latex (tex) format

[Waluyo Adi Siswanto]

Hi all,

I am writing a paper manuscript in lyx.
Unfortunately only latex (tex) format is accepted by the journal  publisher.

I have tried to export to latex(pdflatex), then successfully created paper.tex

I tested the created tex file and compile using this command: pdflatex paper.tex
It created paper.pdf. however, when I opened this generated pdf file
all links including citations were shown as [?].
Does it mean I cannot submit this paper.tex.

Anyone has experience to submit a tex format paper, prepared in LyX?
Any tips please?

Thanks in advance for any information.

When compiling a .tex file you typically have to run latex (or
pdflatex) a couple of times because these programs make only one pass
through the source .tex file. You also have to run bibtex to generate
the bibliography. Normally the following sequence of commands should
work (in this order, and assuming you have a proper .bib file
referenced in your .tex file):

pdflatex paper.tex
bibtex paper
pdflatex paper.tex
pdflatex paper.tex

(The last one may not be necessary, but it doesn't hurt).

After these, the citations should appear correctly.



 Thanks in advance for any information.

 waluyo

I experienced exactly the same with AAAI format.
see this http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg78730.html, 
it's about AAAI package.
here's what I did:
1.In Lyx, export to latex (plain)
2.pdflatex fileName
3.bibtex fileName
4.pdflatex fileName
5.pdflatex fileName

you need to compile the bibliography (bibtex fileName)
also run the command pdflatex twice.

[Lyx to Latex] XY-PIC figures and crossref tag

I exported my document to Latex.
1. when compiling my .bib file, it generates errors because of crossref tag in 
bibtex entries.
I removed crossref tag and it compiled fine. 

is this normal (i'm using Texworks as latex editor)? 

2.another issue is the using of built-in figures (xymatrix).
in my computer it generates exactly the same as in Lyx.
when I sent it to my friend some circle frames get corrupted (smaller than the 
text it contains) 
how can I solve this?

 Stephan,
 
  Yes, GUI apps tend to look alike, but there are differences between those

You mean, GTK editor apps - like gedit - have a more visible mouse pointer

 Perhaps you can configure your Qt-environment to display a more visible

Hi,
In general there are two places to determine citation engine and styles. 
They are:


1. Document  Settings  Bibliography
and
2. Insert  List / TOC  BibTeX Bibliography

In 1. you can select natbib engine with author/year. In 2. you can 
select a style---but here it gets tricky, since all styles are listed 
but not all of them are natbib-compatible and author/year-compatible. 
Best is to experiment or google for a style which you like.

Ah, thanks for the link. That makes it clear what you want to use. This 
package uses the standard latex command \cite. So, once you have 
installed this package in your latex distribution, you could use it in 
LyX by this procedure:


1. Select the default engine in Document  Settings  Bibliography,
2. put the line
\usepackage{authordate1-4}
in Document  Settings  Preamble,
3. select one of the style (authordate1, authordate2, authordate3, or 
authordate4) in the BibTeX Bibliography settings.

It is sufficient to add an INSET to the name of the chapter, containing 
the following command


\markboth{header}{header}

where, instead of header, you must put the header you want.
Furthermore, if you also want the chapter to appear in the TOC, you

Re: Sweave Snow Leopard and lyx 2.0

[Yihui Xie]

As far as I know, there is no such a package named literate, and the
Sweave module does not rely on noweb.sty (this seems to be a common
misunderstanding about Sweave in LyX).

I'm sort of lost in the discussion and do not know what is the problem
right now. The Sweave module mainly depends on Rscript, which is part
of R; it has to be in your PATH variable. Sweave.sty may or may not be
required, since the Sweave() function in R will automatically add
something like \usepackage{Sweave} in your LaTeX output. In LyX 2.0.1,
users will not need to worry about Sweave.sty anymore -- it will be
copied from R if LyX cannot see it.

 The errror message, as suggested by Julien, was indeed linked to trying to
 load the noweb module. Removing the noweb module fixed the error and fixing
 the path fixed the compile error.

  I don't get this error on Ubuntu so I assume I must have a more complete

Re: Beamer

[Paul Rubin]

It looks as if you might have a problem with a hyperlink.  Have you added any
hyperlinks (beyond the navigational links that beamer provides automatically)? 
If so, you might try deleting them and see if that helps.  Do you have the
hyperref package installed (seems likely, but worth checking)?  Also, does the
problem persist if you select Document  Settings  PDF Properties and select
the Use hyperref support box?

submitting paper in latex (tex) format

[Waluyo Adi Siswanto]

Hi all,

I am writing a paper manuscript in lyx.
Unfortunately only latex (tex) format is accepted by the journal  publisher.

I have tried to export to latex(pdflatex), then successfully created paper.tex

I tested the created tex file and compile using this command: pdflatex paper.tex
It created paper.pdf. however, when I opened this generated pdf file
all links including citations were shown as [?].
Does it mean I cannot submit this paper.tex.

Anyone has experience to submit a tex format paper, prepared in LyX?
Any tips please?

Thanks in advance for any information.

When compiling a .tex file you typically have to run latex (or
pdflatex) a couple of times because these programs make only one pass
through the source .tex file. You also have to run bibtex to generate
the bibliography. Normally the following sequence of commands should
work (in this order, and assuming you have a proper .bib file
referenced in your .tex file):

pdflatex paper.tex
bibtex paper
pdflatex paper.tex
pdflatex paper.tex

(The last one may not be necessary, but it doesn't hurt).

After these, the citations should appear correctly.



 Thanks in advance for any information.

[Lyx to Latex] XY-PIC figures and crossref tag

I exported my document to Latex.
1. when compiling my .bib file, it generates errors because of crossref tag in 
bibtex entries.
I removed crossref tag and it compiled fine. 

is this normal (i'm using Texworks as latex editor)? 

2.another issue is the using of built-in figures (xymatrix).
in my computer it generates exactly the same as in Lyx.
when I sent it to my friend some circle frames get corrupted (smaller than the 
text it contains) 
how can I solve this?

Beamer

[Jure acimovic]

Hi

I have a question regarding beamer. I have installed Lyx 2.0 and 
everything is working great. The only problem is beamer class. It does 
not want to compile it.


I have tried it on different computers and also with Lyx 1.6.9. The same 
problem. I checked MixTex and all necessary packages are installed. pgf, 
xcolor


Does anyone have any idea what to do?

about the ESC key

[Wei-Dong Lian]

Hello everyone,

I have a small question. The short-key I defined in the
Tools/Preference/Editing/Shortcus does not work in Dialog (e.g. Toc Dialog,
Citation Dialog or other dialogs). Is it possible to leave the self-defined
shortcuts still work in dialogs. Maybe it is a bit tricky, maybe adding a
new key mapping in the base dialog class of all dialogs.
Actually, I just want to use Ctrl+g as Esc to cancel the pop dialog, but
always I need to hit the Esc (very far from the keyboard center).

Any suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

WD

deb for ubuntu lucid?

[Daniel CLEMENT]

Hello,

[sorry if double post--looks like the previous one did not reach the list]

Is there any chance of seeing a .deb file appear for Ubuntu Lucid? So
far I relied on getdeb to get lyx updated, but it looks like getdeb has
somewhat dropped supporting lyx on lucid.

Of course Ubuntu has recent lyx packages but lucid doesn't meet their
dependencies.

OTTH, I'm not so fond at compiling myself, and I see that even on the
lucid-bleed ppa, lyx 2.0.0 "failed to build"... not very encouraging.

I'm in no hurry to upgrade my Ubuntu. Has anyone successfully compiled
lyx 2 under lucid 64?

TIA for any advice or experience report.

Re: Beamer

[Paul Rubin]

It looks as if you might have a problem with a hyperlink.  Have you added any
hyperlinks (beyond the navigational links that beamer provides automatically)? 
If so, you might try deleting them and see if that helps.  Do you have the
hyperref package installed (seems likely, but worth checking)?  Also, does the
problem persist if you select Document > Settings > PDF Properties and select
the "Use hyperref support" box?

Marcelo,

  I fixed the trackball cursor tracking issue by the simple expedient of
changing the application window's background color by making it much
lighter. The mid-yellow does not have sufficient contrast, changing it to
almost-white makes a huge difference.

Thanks,

submitting paper in latex (tex) format

[Waluyo Adi Siswanto]

Hi all,

I am writing a paper manuscript in lyx.
Unfortunately only latex (tex) format is accepted by the journal  publisher.

I have tried to export to latex(pdflatex), then successfully created paper.tex

I tested the created tex file and compile using this command: pdflatex paper.tex
It created paper.pdf. however, when I opened this generated pdf file
all links including citations were shown as [?].
Does it mean I cannot submit this paper.tex.

Anyone has experience to submit a tex format paper, prepared in LyX?
Any tips please?

Thanks in advance for any information.

regards
waluyo

When compiling a .tex file you typically have to run latex (or
pdflatex) a couple of times because these programs make only one pass
through the source .tex file. You also have to run bibtex to generate
the bibliography. Normally the following sequence of commands should
work (in this order, and assuming you have a proper .bib file
referenced in your .tex file):

pdflatex paper.tex
bibtex paper
pdflatex paper.tex
pdflatex paper.tex

(The last one may not be necessary, but it doesn't hurt).

After these, the citations should appear correctly.

I experienced exactly the same with AAAI format.
see this http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg78730.html, 
it's about AAAI package.
here's what I did:
1.In Lyx, export to latex (plain)
2.pdflatex fileName
3.bibtex fileName
4.pdflatex fileName
5.pdflatex fileName

you need to compile the bibliography (bibtex fileName)
also run the command pdflatex twice.


hope this helps.

Re: submitting paper in latex (tex) format

[Waluyo Adi Siswanto]

Thanks Eisa , also Ernesto

Yes, all citation links are now shown with the correct list of references.
It means nothings wrong with the tex file generated by lyx.
I can submit it with other figures and bib file.

Best regards

[Lyx to Latex] XY-PIC figures and crossref tag

[Eisa Ayed]

I exported my document to Latex.
1. when compiling my .bib file, it generates errors because of crossref tag in 
bibtex entries.
I removed crossref tag and it compiled fine. 

is this normal (i'm using Texworks as latex editor)? 

2.another issue is the using of built-in figures (xymatrix).
in my computer it generates exactly the same as in Lyx.
when I sent it to my friend some circle frames get corrupted (smaller than the 
text it contains) 
how can I solve this?

Thank You,
~Eisa
