how to make empheq work?
Hi,
I'm a newbie with Lyx. I've been trying to get the empheq package to work but
can't.
I put \usepackage{empheq} in the preamble, and created an ERT box containing
this test code..
\begin{empheq}
\begin{align}
E=mc^2 \\
Y= \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^2}
\end{align}
\end{empheq}
It generated a host of errors starting with this:
LaTeX Error: \begin{empheq} on input line 25 ended by \end{align}.
\end{align}
Your command was ignored.
Type I command return to replace it with another command,
or return to continue without it.
Any ideas?
Many thanks
Brian Williams

This is wrong.

works. Read the empheq documentation if you want to know the details.

Re: lyx bugfix releases (was: Re: bibtex / Bugzilla)
Helge Hafting has made it over from the user-side and is busy supplying us with bug reports of things that go wrong with LyX 1.4.x. That's a great way for you or anybody else to help too. Of course, this is not bug-free code, so please back up your files first. It does seem to be pretty stable however. I am also ready to do this. What to I have to do for that? get a CVS copy? Or do you have *.debs? Thanks of course for all the effort that is being put into lyx, it's just that regular updates would somehow make me feel more ... thinks about how to put it ... convinced that choosing lyx was the right decision. I hope this info doesn't dissuade you. The whole thing is great. I think I collegue of mine will soon move over. He works on TeXniccenter. :-( But a major drawback - as stated in my initial post - he needs a citation method for humanities (economies) including citation inside footnotes and outside. All citations should be able to have a see-option like in jurabib and appear as footnotes. Well if there'll be input before citations I will be satisfied for most of my natbib-based work. Go on! Tim

Installing new packages
Dear List, Can anyone explain to me how to install new packages for use with LyX? Where do I put them (I think I know what to do with them, as I found a LaTeX description - do you have to do anything different for LyX?) Once installed, do you have to 'register' them with LyX? Thanks, Matt (Lyx 1.3.5 on Linux FC3)

RE: how to make empheq work (with LyX)? - still struggling
Thanks Georg, but still no luck.
I've renamed the subject, because it may just be a problem with LyX.
I went the document The empheq package* by Morten Høgholm 2004/10/10
and cut and paste this sample into an ERT box
\begin{empheq}{align*}
a=b \tag{*}\\
E=mc^2 + \int_a^a x\, dx
\end{empheq}
and Lyx gives me this error:
Undefined control sequence.
\end{empheq}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.
I don't get it! Any further help gratefully received
Thanks,
Brian Williams

Of course, the only reason why I need this is because I don't know how to make
lyx align a system of equations (4 cols) with the operators and equals signs
lined up and a big brace to the left. All the align environments that I've
found in Lyx are limited to 2 or 3. Am I missing something?

Installing new packages
Dear List, Can anyone explain to me how to install new packages for use with LyX? Where do I put them (I think I know what to do with them, as I found a LaTeX description - do you have to do anything different for LyX?) Once installed, do you have to 'register' them with LyX? Thanks, Matt (Lyx 1.3.5 on Linux FC3)

RE: how to make empheq work (with LyX)? - still struggling
Thanks Georg, but still no luck.
I've renamed the subject, because it may just be a problem with LyX.
I went the document "The empheq package*" by Morten Høgholm 2004/10/10
and cut and paste this sample into an ERT box
\begin{empheq}{align*}
a&=b \tag{*}\\
E&=mc^2 + \int_a^a x\, dx
\end{empheq}
and Lyx gives me this error:
"Undefined control sequence.
\end{empheq}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined."
I don't get it! Any further help gratefully received
Thanks,
Brian Williams

This is wrong.
\begin{empheq}{align}
works. Read the empheq documentation if you want to know the details.

Subject: how to make empheq work?
Hi,
I'm a newbie with Lyx. I've been trying to get the empheq package to work
but can't.
I put \usepackage{empheq} in the preamble, and created an ERT box
containing this test code..
\begin{empheq}
\begin{align}
E&=mc^2 \\
Y&= \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^2}
\end{align}
\end{empheq}
It generated a host of errors starting with this:
LaTeX Error: \begin{empheq} on input line 25 ended by \end{align}.
\end{align}
Your command was ignored.
Type I to replace it with another command,
or to continue without it.
Any ideas?
Many thanks
Brian Williams

"Installed" means that the binary can be found in the PATH environment variable. Ie, typing "foo" at the command line will launch foo. "Registering" them requires you to run Edit->Reconfigure. LyX looks for a bunch of executables as default converters from format A to format B. If your recently installed program is one of these searched-for programs, then LyX will find and "register" it. Sounds horribly windows-ish to me :) -- Angus

As a LyX/Win user? Testing LyX 1.3.6-to be. I have a few more things to commit before LyX will compile out of the box on Windows (mingw compiler only for LyX 1.3.6). Thereafter, I'll post an announcement here looking for testers and I'll put the binary somewhere accessible. Give me a week or so. -- Angus

This is a limitation of the ERT box in LyX 1.3.x. Don't use normal newlines
in ERT, but Ctrl-Enter. The latter will produce one newline in the .tex
output, normal newlines will produce a paragraph break (= 2 newlines).
The attached file works for me.

empheq-221.lyx
Description: application/lyx
RE: how to make empheq work (with LyX)? - still struggling
Many thanks Georg!
I didn't know about that limitation with the ERT box (I'm too new). I couldn't
find it in the user documentation... curious! Can you recommend anything more
complete?
Thanks again,
Brian

RE: how to make empheq work (with LyX)? - still struggling
Of course, the only reason why I need this is because I don't know how to make
lyx align a system of equations (4 cols) with the operators and equals signs
lined up and a big brace to the left. All the align environments that I've
found in Lyx are limited to 2 or 3. Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Brian

Sounds horribly windows-ish to me :) From what I remember, you need to put the new .layout or .class or whatever in a directory tree containing all the others, and then run texhash, and then do the Edit->reconfigure.
