Re: PNG to EPS conversion creating huge temporary files

[gordon cooper]

 Adding to my previous comment. Deleted that html, made another and
Lyx created a new list of image files, this time in the html sub folder, in
addition to repeating the grafix subfolder with all the image files in it.
Will contact my co-editor on this, see if it's happening to him too.

Dear Lynx users,

Im currently having the problem where all the .png files in my

I read as much as I could find online. I have made my default output

I have not had this problem before today, but now I have. Working 
with a 100+
page technical manual, editing and replacing some hyperlinks. Went 
back to

my work folder to chose a file for comparison, only to find some 90 odd
.eps files, representing the images in the project, had appeared in 
the folder.

This appears to have happened when an export to html  was made.

Not completely certain, but believe this may be the first time I have 
made
an html copy with Lyx 2.2.2.Am certain that the generation of 
.eps never

happened with previous versions of Lyx.

Hi Taedeus,

It would be great if you could make a minimal example and send it to the
list. For more information, see:
https://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/MinimalExample

It'll probably take you more time to make a good minimal example than it
would for you to just keep doing a second compile, BUT it could help us
fix a bug somewhere in LyX.

fleqn in thesis template vs flalign

[Tadeus Ras]

Hello again!


Second of two questions tonight occupying me since a while:

I am trying to better understand the „thesis.lyx“ template (from „examples“ 
folder) and noticed the document option „fleqn“. As I have may lengthy formulas 
in my thesis, the enforced indentation often makes no sense. Am I right in 
assuming that I can achieve the same with the flalign environment using the 
„empty TeX backet“ trick from the LyX math documentation where appropriate?

If someone has some kind of documentation of that template file or advice on 
its usage I would also be very grateful for that!


Thanks very much!
Tadeus

"Random" error message

[Tadeus Ras]

Hello fellow LyXonauts!


First of two questions occupying me since a while:
In at least one of the files input into my thesis — with an input math macro 
file at the beginning — I incosistently get the following error message:

! Text line contains an invalid character.
l.19 ^^@^^@
^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^@^^...
A funny symbol that I can't read has just been input.
Continue, and I'll forget that it ever happened.

„inconsistently“ in the sense that a second compilation try often succeeds 
without any changes on the document. This document also takes much longer for 
its 20 pages to compile than others of the same size. Might this be related? 
And if not: Is there any way (besides „commenting out“) to figure out what 
takes up all the time in that compilation process?


Thanks…

Thanks. I am not sure why the fourier package has this effect. It is 
definitely not a problem with LyX itself.


There are actually two packages

1. fourier, which LyX uses when setting the font under Document > 
Settings > Fonts, and


2. utopia.

The fourier package has the effect that you see on your output. Maybe 
this is some (known?) problem with the package? You can also try to ask 
the question on http://tex.stackexchange.com


Maybe an alternative would is to use utopia instead? So rather than 
choosing the package via Document > Settings > Fonts you add


\usepackage{utopia}

to your Document > Settings > Preamble.

Dear Julio,

I think the result is as it should be. The page numbers never get turned 
with the content. This is because you normally don't want them turned 
since the landscape page is part of series of other pages in portrait. I 
have added some context so you see what I mean.


If for some reason you want the page numbers turned as well maybe this 
helps?

Hi Julio,

So you want to rotate the content only on one of your pages, right?
Otherwise you could just use Document->Settings->Page Layout->Landscape.

For only one page with a rotated table I had no problems with using

\usepackage{pdflscape}

in the Preamble and an ERT with

\begin{landscape}

before and

\end{landscape}

after the table. Notice that for it to work you have to disable
Landscape in the document Settings. (Otherwise you get a
double-rotation.)

If it does not work maybe you can send an example file.
