images appear bigger

2012-04-22 Thread Murpholino x
I am doing my thesis with LYX

After a few ctrl-shift-R... images appear bigger in the pdf
I say ok, no problem... I have my backup at another partition.

I changed to the other partition and opened my thesis (a few days older)
with LYX and everything was ok
but after a couple of minutes, and after a few ctrl-shift-R got the same
problem.

I export my thesis to eps, and images are the size they used to be. But it
takes longer.

The problem is evince?
How can I solve that?

I am using Lubuntu 11.10

Do you need something else? please let me know

RE: Polytonic Greek input?

2012-04-22 Thread René Grognard

A Lyx "newbee" myself I am a long way to have it replacing TeXworks but under 
the latter and pdfLaTeX I use the command 
\usepackage{psibycus} % to use scalable Type1 fonts
and with an ADSL connection to the web TeXworks, at least  in my configuration, 
would automatically download what is required from CTAN. See 
http://ctan.tche.br/fonts/greek/ibygrk/doc/generic/ibycus4/README
for info on Ibycus4, version 4.5 as of 2004-10-27 Then for instance:
 {\greek{})Apollw'nios Eu)dh'mw| xai'rein} 
 {\greek{}eu)tu'xei} 
would reproduce Apollonius' greetings and Vale to Eudemus: the oxytonic accent 
on the omega is given by w' ;  the soft (lenis) breathing on the upsilon by u); 
a subscripted iota on omega is w|; etc... as indicated in the README above. 
Ibycus gives alternative packages to write Ancient Greek poetry.
A Lyx expert might tell us how to include Ibycus in Lyx.> Date: Sun, 22 Apr

Polytonic Greek input?

2012-04-22 Thread stefano franchi
Can anyone remind me of how to input Greek (polytonic) accents?

I looked on the wiki, but I could not quite figure out how to enter
the breathing accents. Searching the list did not help either. I used
to know it, but I can't remember how I learned it...

Thanks,

Stefano

Hi,

In newer versions of LyX (I'm using 2.0.3 on windows) I have noticed
the following very annoying behaviour: If you undo it undoes not only
the latest key press but something like the last 20-30 key presses.
This means that if you make some changes, and then delete something
by mistake, undo doesn't just undo the mistake, but also the changes
before which you want to keep. Thus you must either choose not to
undo, and manually retype what you deleted by mistake, or undo and
retype the changes you made before the deletion.

Is it possible to disable this behaviour so that an undo undoes only a
single key press?

I'm still on 2.0.0 for Linux, but the behavior you describe sounds like
a showstopper. Uuch!
This is not quite the behavior I see.  I am using 2.0.3 on debian 
linux.  If you type a string without backspaces, or deletes, or other 
stoppages, undo will erase a string of some length.  For example, I just 
typed a string of c's, about 20 of them, and undo removed 14 of them.  
But, when I typed cc, undo just went back to the 
backspace, leaving one c.  I don't think this is new behavior for undo, 
and I don't think it's unreasonable.  If you want to delete just one 
character, you use , don't you?  Undo (or -z ) would be 
a bit more bother.

I do not remember how latex2rtf is called from LyX. 
latex2rtf requires that the LaTeX document to be converted was
completely and successfully compiled by LaTeX, that means that the .tex
file must be accompanied by up-to-date .aux and .bbl files.
So before running latex2rtf, the sequence
latex inputfile
bibtex inputfile
latex inputfile
latex inputfile
has to be executed to resolve all bibliographic references and cross
references.
Nevertheless, something like \s\do5(c)... should never be displayed in
Word. If it does, it means that a brace { or } or a backslash is missing
or misplaced in the rtf output.
For bugfixing it would be helpful if you send me a sample file which
shows the problem, by personal mail.

Undo undoes too much

2012-04-22 Thread David B
Hi,

In newer versions of LyX (I'm using 2.0.3 on windows) I have noticed the
following very annoying behaviour: If you undo it undoes not only the
latest key press but something like the last 20-30 key presses. This means
that if you make some changes, and then delete something by mistake, undo
doesn't just undo the mistake, but also the changes before which you want
to keep. Thus you must either choose not to undo, and manually retype what
you deleted by mistake, or undo and retype the changes you made before the
deletion.

Is it possible to disable this behaviour so that an undo undoes only a
single key press?
