line thickness of \hrule
Hi,
I want to adjust the thickness of the line when you use the \hrule in lyx
1.1.6 (under title for exemple):
layout-Paragraph-General-lines (below)
Is there a way to control the thickness of the line in lyx like
\setlength{\hrule ...}{3pt}
Thank's
Francois

You could put \hrule height=3pt width=\textwidth in ERT I believe.
If you need it several times, define a macro in the preamble.

solution, as it is easier to maintain in the long term. And the

to add support for styles in lyx.

too hard.

Now if you want to fake some styles we can use the colours, that
clearly
don't have any counterparts in docbook and use them for different
styles. But
this only shows how much we need real user defined styles in lyx.
I did try this (modified from the troubleshooters.com Linux Productivity
Magazine), but it did not work in 'DocBook article (SGML)':
Layout LaTex Preamble...
% %%% Pseudo character styles indexed by color %%%
\usepackage{ifthen}
\providecommand{\textcolor}[2]{#2}
\renewcommand{\textcolor}[2]{%
\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{blue}}{{filename{#2}/filename}}{}% SGML
filename tags
\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{magenta}}{{\large{\texttt{#2{}%Large text
\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{magenta}\or\equal{#1}{blue}}{}{#2}%fallthrough
}
Here is the text in Lyx ('myfile' is blue and 'Large' is magenta):
newbie test myfile
Large text
This produced unaltered text when viewed in DVI.
With Export DocBook, the SGML file contained no filename tags:
para
newbie test myfile
/para
para
Large text
/para
Also, the preamble was printed at the top of both the DVI and the SGML
documents.
If I change the document from 'DocBook article (SGML)' to 'article' and
view in DVI, the magenta text is in large type, and the preamble is not
printed at the top.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Chris.

I heard that lyx1.2 is not supposed to be able to read files from 1.3,
is that true? Last time, lyx1.3 messed up my 1.2 file and I had to enter

I am glad that I can not find any immediate problem and will continue to
test it. It is much better than what I saw last month.

Patch attached. It basically says don't change the colour just because it
is a symbol, take the colour of the surroundings instead. Which gives now
blue or black \alphas depending on whether it is ordinary math or math

We can not blame users' lack of knowledge of latex, this might exactly
be the reason why they use lyx instead of plain latex. I introduced lyx
to many of my friends and they all became happy lyx-ers. However, most
of them encountered this problem sooner or later and had to ask me for a
solution. It definitely needs a while for new users to know how (and
why) to add \usepackage{amsmath} to preamble.

A more natural way to produce this error is when a user want to input
things like $=1 \text{w.p. } \alpha$.
1) M-m m enter math mode
2) =1 math-mode
3) M-m m enter text mode
4) w.p. pure text
5) M-m g a\alpha in the wrong place.
I mean, no one would really select \alpha and try to convert it to text
mode. This error occurs most likely when user is in textmode and try to
enter some math symbol,

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi. Just curious. If you are already using fink, then why do you need to compile Lyx separately? If you are using 0.5.0 version of fink, then Lyx 1.2.1 is provided as a pre-complied binary that can be installed using dselect. If for some reason you want to compile from source, then you can do this via fink - - -- fink install lyx will compile version 1.2.1 from source. If you have a version of fink prior to 0.5.0 -- 0.4.1 for example -- then I can see why you might want to compile fink from scratch since the lyx that is offered as binaries in previous versions of fink is 1.1.6-fix3. But, the files necessary to compile 1.2.1 are available in the unstable directories. Simply edit your fink.conf file (the default location is /sw/etc/fink.conf) to include the unstable tree then do fink install lyx. This will compile 1.2.1. Since version 0.5.0 resolves the issues present in 0.4.1 with respect to 10.2.x compatibility, you may want to upgrade to 0.5.0 in any case. Hope this helps.

Thank you Andre'! This will definitely help.
I just commited the patch.
Anyway, what is the improvements of 1.3's math-mode than 1.2.1?
Improvements... the big one is probably the ability to handle \mbox, \fbox
and other mode switching commands more or less correctly. Handling of {}.
Apart from that it is mostly internal stuff. A couple of new symbols like
support for wasy etc. Somewhat better parser. Some bug fixes.
I understand that 1.3 change this behavior (from binary math/text to
nested) on purpose but as far as I concern, I am pretty satisfied with
what lyx1.2's math-mode does and see no need of change...
And some people are satisfied with 1.1.6. The problem is, the older
versions do some things conceptually wrong. Like nested math/text which was
impossible to support with 1.1/1.2 internal structures. (I do not mean
switching just once from math to text, but to embed new math in the text.
And, yes, this is done pretty often in plain LaTeX).
So we basically had a choice: Live with 1.1.6/1.2 and never be able to
implement e.g. \mbox, or try to get it right. I opted for the latter, but I
do not claim that it is right now already, but it is certainly better.

Should \alpha in text mode switch back to the enclosing level of math or create a new level of math? What if the enclosing level is another level of text? Like an \fbox in an \fbox? Should it break that, too? I still believe there is no obviously correct solution and unless we find one I'd rather stick to the you get what you order mantra.

Re: latex font question
Well its a bit hard to show you with just text but sometimes I use typed
notation which should be a lot more and it would take a long time to
type in with tex or the maths panel. It would be nice to be able to type
in (1,0) and have it magically end up as all the maths (spectroscopic)
stuff it should be. And to your question on lyxcode try puting
\renewenvironment{lyxcode} {\begin{list}{}{\huge\ttfamily}\item[]}
{\end{list}}
in your preamble. You shuld have just come down and I would have given
it to you.

You could put \hrule height=3pt width=\textwidth in ERT I believe.
If you need it several times, define a macro in the preamble.

Here is the text in Lyx ('myfile' is blue and 'Large' is magenta):

Large text
This produced unaltered text when viewed in DVI.
With Export DocBook, the SGML file contained no filename tags:
para

/para
Also, the preamble was printed at the top of both the DVI and the SGML

If I change the document from 'DocBook article (SGML)' to 'article' and
view in DVI, the magenta text is in large type, and the preamble is not
printed at the top.
Any ideas?

I agree that it is next to impossible to guess what is wrong once the error has been made. At least color or minibuffer display should show what is going on. JMarc

Patch attached. It basically says don't change the colour just because it

blue or black \alphas depending on whether it is ordinary math or math

We can not blame users' lack of knowledge of latex, this might exactly
be the reason why they use lyx instead of plain latex. I introduced lyx
to many of my friends and they all became happy lyx-ers. However, most
of them encountered this problem sooner or later and had to ask me for a
solution. It definitely needs a while for new users to know how (and

A more natural way to produce this error is when a user want to input
things like $=1 \text{w.p. } \alpha$.
1) M-m m enter math mode
2) =1 math-mode
3) M-m m enter text mode
4) w.p. pure text
5) M-m g a\alpha in the wrong place.
I mean, no one would really select \alpha and try to convert it to text
mode. This error occurs most likely when user is in textmode and try to
enter some math symbol,

Re: building lyx1.2.1 on MacOSX
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi. Just curious. If you are already using fink, then why do you need to compile Lyx separately? If you are using 0.5.0 version of fink, then Lyx 1.2.1 is provided as a pre-complied binary that can be installed using dselect. If for some reason you want to compile from source, then you can do this via fink - - -- fink install lyx will compile version 1.2.1 from source. If you have a version of fink prior to 0.5.0 -- 0.4.1 for example -- then I can see why you might want to compile fink from scratch since the lyx that is offered as binaries in previous versions of fink is 1.1.6-fix3. But, the files necessary to compile 1.2.1 are available in the unstable directories. Simply edit your fink.conf file (the default location is /sw/etc/fink.conf) to include the unstable tree then do fink install lyx. This will compile 1.2.1. Since version 0.5.0 resolves the issues present in 0.4.1 with respect to 10.2.x compatibility, you may want to upgrade to 0.5.0 in any case. Hope this helps.

Anyway, what is the improvements of 1.3's math-mode than 1.2.1?
Improvements... the big one is probably the ability to handle \mbox, \fbox
and other mode switching commands more or less correctly. Handling of {}.
Apart from that it is mostly internal stuff. A couple of new symbols like
support for wasy etc. Somewhat better parser. Some bug fixes.
I understand that 1.3 change this behavior (from binary math/text to
nested) on purpose but as far as I concern, I am pretty satisfied with
what lyx1.2's math-mode does and see no need of change...
And some people are satisfied with 1.1.6. The problem is, the older
versions do some things conceptually wrong. Like nested math/text which was
impossible to support with 1.1/1.2 internal structures. (I do not mean
switching just once from math to text, but to embed new math in the text.
And, yes, this is done pretty often in plain LaTeX).
So we basically had a choice: Live with 1.1.6/1.2 and never be able to
implement e.g. \mbox, or try to get it right. I opted for the latter, but I
do not claim that it is right now already, but it is certainly better.

type in with tex or the maths panel. It would be nice to be able to type
in (1,0) and have it magically end up as all the maths (spectroscopic)
stuff it should be. And to your question on lyxcode try puting
\renewenvironment{lyxcode} {\begin{list}{}{\huge\ttfamily}\item[]}

You could put \hrule height=3pt width=\textwidth in ERT I believe.
If you need it several times, define a macro in the preamble.

However, if it was not set already, there may be a problem in your

you should use LaTeX, not TeX
\rule{\textwidth}{3pt}
or
\hrulefill

Add to the preamble:
\renewcommand{\lyxline}[1]{
{#1 \vspace{1ex} \hrule height 1pt width \columnwidth \vspace{1ex}}
}

If this means modifying text configuration files, yes please - I will
have a go. I am not proficient in C though.

I did try this (modified from the troubleshooters.com Linux Productivity
Magazine), but it did not work in 'DocBook article (SGML)':
Layout > LaTex Preamble...
% %%% Pseudo character styles indexed by color %%%
\usepackage{ifthen}
\providecommand{\textcolor}[2]{#2}
\renewcommand{\textcolor}[2]{%
\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{blue}}{{{#2}}}{}% SGML
filename tags
\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{magenta}}{{\large{\texttt{#2{}%Large text
\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{magenta}\or\equal{#1}{blue}}{}{#2}%fallthrough
}
Here is the text in Lyx ('myfile' is blue and 'Large' is magenta):
newbie test myfile
Large text
This produced unaltered text when viewed in DVI.
With Export > DocBook, the SGML file contained no tags:
newbie test myfile
Large text
Also, the preamble was printed at the top of both the DVI and the SGML
documents.
If I change the document from 'DocBook article (SGML)' to 'article' and
view in DVI, the magenta text is in large type, and the preamble is not
printed at the top.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Chris.
