This is a feature of tkbibtex. (and as tkbibtex is an interpreted program
written in tcl/Tk it should be not too hard to change this behaviour. I'll see
to it if time permits)

A quick workaround is to edit 
the citation box  manually after pushing from tkbibtex, i.e. click on
the first citebox, type in the second to last citation (separated
by comma) and delete the second to last citebox.

BTW: Also LyX 1.1.5fix's native citation selector (the pull down list in the
citebox-popup) allows only one citation per box to be choosen from the list 
-- the other ones one has to put in "per hand" - knowing the right key.

Re: Multiple documents and chapter bib

2001-03-29 Thread Robert Koehler

Well you include the bib at the end of each chapter! You comment it out when
you want to compile the whole shebang, but when you just want to compile a
single chapter you uncomment it.

That is what I do.

Multiple documents and chapter bib

2001-03-29 Thread Paul E Johnson

Can I ask the multiple documents question from the other direction? My
individual documents do not need Bibliographies, but I want to be able
to see the bib file when I work in the documents.

I have a main document that includes all the chapters, and it also
includes the Lyx insert bibliography thing at the end.   The document
works fine when I print the whole thing.  In the main document, I can do
the insert reference menu and it scans my bib file and shows a list of
possible citations. Great!

When I edit the individual chapters, (for which there are no separate
bibliographies), Lyx has not been told where the references are and so
when I do the insert references menu, it does not offer me any to pick
from. 

Is there a fix?

JMarc,

The version of xforms was the problem. Previously i'd been using version
0.88 of the xforms library compiled for a.out binaries (?). When I
removed this version and installed the version you suggested (elf
binary) the configure step for Lyx worked ! Compiling was no problem
(make followed by make install).

I found the elf binary of libforms 0.88 at

Make sure you include the files with \include and not with \input.
If this doesn't work, I suggest you use the bibunits package, which is

The problem is that lyx runs 'bibtex Thesis' while when using chapterbib
you need to run 'bibtex Test' and 'bibtex Test2'.
A solution is to use the following script:
---
#!/usr/bin/tcsh
foreach file (*.aux)
 /usr/bin/bibtex $file:r
end
---
Save the script into a file called bibtex, and put it somewhere in your
path
before /usr/bin (so the result of `which bibtex` is not give
/usr/bin/bibtex).
You should also remove the \usepackage{chapterbib} from the preamble of
Test.lyx and Test2.lyx

You need to nest the paragraph of the figure into the enumerate environment:
Move the cursor just before the figure and press the toolbar button to the

do you leave the textfield layout->document->float placement blank?
this is important, when you use the options in every float.
to prevent vertically centered floats write in latex preamble

\setlength\@fptop{0pt}

It is a well known problem, you should find the solution on
X11.aplications NG or on deja.com...

The problem comes from your upgrade of XFREE (i got the same problem at
home with my suse 6.3)
mais bon je te donne la soluce.

It comes from a bad link of the  xkb directory

The Xfree upgrade puts it in the directory /var/state. The pervious
version of XFREE search it in  /usr/X11R6/lib/X11. You must remove the
old link with a simple "rm" and create a new one  to the new good
directory with the line : ln -s /var/state/xkb /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb

The tips is also given in "guide de survie de G. Delafond"

http://www.medsyn.fr/perso/g.delafond/survie.htm

7.23  La touche AltGr ne fonctionne plus après avoir installé XFree86

Histoire vécue sur Mandrake 7.2, où setxkbmap refusait de fonctionner.
En fait, xkbcomp essayait d'écrire dans /usr/X1R6/lib/xkb/compiled , qui
est un lien
vers /var/state/xkb...qui n'existe pas. 

Solution : créer un répertoire /var/state/xkb. 

Si vous n'avez changé aucun réglage, vérifiez que setxkbmap se lance
bien. S'il refuse, il peut s'agir d'une partition /var (ou racine si
/var n'a pas sa propre
partition) pleine. Faites de la place. Dans ce cas, vous ne pouvez pas

Enumerated list + EPS figure import problem (bug?)

2001-03-29 Thread Michael S. Wellman

I'm usind Debian (unstable) Linux and LyX 1.1.5fix2

I'm making an enumerated list.

On the first item in the list I import an Encapsulated postscript 
figure.  If I import it as an inline EPS then move on to the next line 
to be enumerated there's no problem, the enumeration continues.

However, if I import the EPS in the regular way (non-inline), then 
enumaration of the next item begins again at 1. I assume this has to do 
with the ability for figures to float if neccessary.

My solution is to type [ctrl]-[Enter] and import the EPS as an inlined 
figure.  This works well but it's left justified, anyway to center it?




Rotating captions

2001-03-29 Thread Chris Schulbert

Hi!

I'm have some of my figures 90° rotated to fit the page. But the captions
dont't rotate.
how can i achive this? It looks so ugly, if your figure is rotated, but the
caption not.
I have searched the lyx-archive on Herbert's page, but found nothing :-(

Then I have some figures which include the [tb] in their floats, but if
there isn't enough text in your section, LyX places the figures centered on
a single page. I don't want the figures to be centered, but the [tb] command
is ignored. Strange.

Regards,
Chris

Doesn't help. It only helps if I remove \markboth command.

I can latex the IEEEsample.tex and in that \markboth seems to work. I
can't import that document into Lyx.

You have made the IEEEtran support for LyX? Well, here are some other
"complaints":

The "Section" style doesn't work in appendix (I tried to write many
appendices, how to do that correctly?). My workaround is to use
"Subsection", but then again I have many sections inside an appendix, and
"subsubsection" doesn't do a good output.

And a bug in LyX undo: if I edit the section where Appendix starts and
then undo my changes, all appendixes disappear and I have to select again
"Layout/Toggle appendix".

IEEE is a special class and it makes sense, that there is no

This is because IEEEtran is for a journal.  They don't want dates in the
output.  You might get dates if you use 'draft' in the extra options for
the document class but this also forces single column and a number of
other things you won't like.

It would seem that while IEEEtran looks pretty you are trying to use it
for a general article and it just isn't written with that in mind.  This
is one of the strictest classes around in the sense of the restrictions it
has on output variations compared to say article.cls.

> Any good ideas how to insert date in the document?

Don't.  Or modify the class and call it something else.

It was probably an oversite on my part to leave the Date paragraph style
in the layout file.

Keymap error with XFree86-4.0.2

2001-03-29 Thread Bronek Baraniecki

Hi,

I'm sorry, if this very simple or it is no problem at all, 
but I cannot find out a solution for my "RightAlt "key in 
akeybord after upgrading from XFre86-3.3.6 to -4.0.2

I go RH7.0
lyx-1.1.6fix1-1
gcc-2.96-54
glibc-2.1.94-14
xforms-0.88-3

Before upgrading there was no problem writing polish 
diacritics in Lyx with "RightAlt" plus a character (eg. ą), 
as well as in vim or emacs. 
But in other applications like kmail (KDE-2), netscape or 
balsa, the "RightAlt" was dead. 

So to make possible to write email in polish, I start 
experimentig and installed xfree-4.02.

And now, all other applications make it possible to use 
RightAlt for diacritics, excluding lyx. 

In lyx RightAlt is dead now. I was playing with some 
configurations in XF86Config without succes. I have very 
good xmodmap in ~/.Xmodmap, but I do not know how to force 
lyx to use it.

Locale is set OK.

Any help will be warmly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I want to insert date into my document. I was able to notice that \today
gives the current date, but anything written with "date" style
will not appear in typesetted document. It doesn't look good if I put it
under "Author" with ctrl+enter.

This happens no matter if I use \markboth in preamble or in text.

Any good ideas how to insert date in the document?

I do it in my way:

take the original document and do a "file->save", for example as chapter
1
than i delete all what's not chapter 1. than i reload the original
document and do the same as often I need it. all new include files
have now the same preamble.

at least insert in the main document the include-commands.

This formatting is controlled by the BibTeX style you are using.

Try a different bst file.  The LaTeX Companion provides a very
comprehensive summary of the various major styles available.  An
alternative to that is to roll your own.  There is a tool for this but I
can't remeber what it's called.  Sorry.

You can prevent LyX from using babel by opening the preferences dialog,
selecting the lang opts->languge tab, erasing the contents of the
Package text field, and pressing save.

This is a bug in lyx-1.1.6 which will be fixed in 1.1.6fix2.
The problem is that lyx inserts spaces between the keys in the \cite command.
You can edit the .lyx file with a text editor and remove these spaces 
(i.e. \cite{foo, bar} -> \cite{foo,bar}).

However, when using the IEEEtran style, multiple citations appear as
[4], [5], [6]. If you want the normal behavior, either edit the
IEEEtran.cls file or redefine the \cite command in the preamble.
You can do the latter by adding \usepackage{cite} in the preamble
(note that instead of [4,5,6] you will get [4-6]).
Also, if you redefine the \cite command you will not need to remove the
spaces in the .lyx file.

I do not know about the [?], but the fact that citations appear

Your vncserver probably runs in 8 bit *TrueColor* which causes many problems.
You should either run it in 8 bit PseudoColor by using the -cc 3 flag
