Try to place the cursor immediately before the table, and press
Shift-CursorRight. This marks the whole table, at least in 1.1.6pre3.
Cut and paste as usual.

If this does not work, move the cursor to the first character after the
table while keeping Shift pressed.

Re: lyx slows down.

2001-01-08 Thread Rod Pinna



gs is ghostscript, the postscript processor. For some reason, it
occasionally keeps running, after it should be killed. When that happens,
the easiest way to deal with it is to simply kill it. Run top to get the
process id, and either kill it in top, or exit top and use

kill -9 pid

where pid is the process id number.

Put

\renewcommand{\@openbib@code}{\setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}}

in the preamble (this will work in the standard classes article/report/book).
You might need to put negative space instead of 0pt.

It is possible!
The following solution is based of the footnote.sty package, after changing
one line (so the footnotes will not appear as footnotes at the last page of
table).

To use it, put

\usepackage{myfootnote}
\makesavenoteenv{longtable}

in the preamble (and use \footnote in the longtable as usual).

Thanks for this tips, it works fine. I've another sort of contrariety
with tables : copy-paste an entire one ! If I select a table with the
mouse, then do a Ctr-c and Ctrl-v somewhere in the document, the
"frames" of the initial table aren't copied, I get only the inner text,
each "cell" separated by the little red arrow of new-line.

A solution seems to be inserting a new table with the same number of
cells/rows, and then past in it the copied text of the previous.

But is it a simplier way of dong it ?

I use LyX 1.1.4

A simple way is to put in "Latex preamble" this instruction :

\usepackage{zapfchan}

and you'll get the ZapfChancery of Adobe for the italic text. The
problem is that you must always use italic, and it doesn't works for the
titles of sections and so (that remains upshape, and ZapfChancery is
only itshape).

It's sufficient for simple things where you select yourself the
appareance of your characters in standard style, but no more...

If somebody could say how to force the default upshape to be replaced by
the itshape, I'd be interessed.

change the following lines in the lyx layout which are not quoted.
it's a solution without ntheorem.

i hope, i understand well: you can mark the paragraphs with the mouse,
than laxout->paragraph->indent paragraph
write in the textfield 0cm!! than latex choose the standard parindent
value for indentation.

lyx-1.1.6pre3, PDF output tip

2001-01-08 Thread Adrian Ball


I was having trouble converting EPS images into usable versions for PDF output
- images (which were originally bitmapped, then converted to EPS before
including in Lyx) would look very fuzzy when exported/viewed in PDF.

The solution (using Ghostscript 6.50) is to alter the PS->PDF convertor to use
-dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress.  IE in the new preferences dialogue go to the
convertors section and change the PS->PDF convertor from
ps2pdf $$i
to
ps2pdf -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress $$i

Hope this helps someone!

This is done by now and submitted for the upcoming 1.1.6.  If you want
to check it out immediately, get the locale file:
  ftp://hst33127.phys.uu.nl/pub/LyX/lyx.mo_1.1.6pre3.gz
gunzip it and copy it as lyx.mo to the propper location, e.g.
/usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/lyx.mo
(this is for SuSE, if you use another distribution, do a 
locate lyx.mo | grep de
