How to write integrals with limits forced to be above and below?
Hi all, I would like to write integrals with limits forced to be above and below the integral sign, as in the first example of the attached figure. How do I do this using LyX? I can't find any button in the Math Panel the performs this task, is there any? I have only suceeded in writing an integral with the limits to the right of the integral sign, as in the second example of the attached figure. Thanks in advance, Andreas K. integrals.png Description: JPEG image

I updated Miktex, and tried reconfigeration of Lyx. Didn´t work. Do you have python installed, and is it on either your system command path or the LyX path prefix (Tools->Preferences->Paths->PATH Prefix)? You can test by typing python -V at a command prompt. (You'll have to cd to the Python directory, or use \python -V, if it's not already on the command path.) /Paul

Inserting a tab indented outline into a lyx document
Hi all, In several places in my latest book I need to insert tab indented outlines. Here's an example: Whole program Initialize Open input file for read Open output file for write Copy loop Read input record Copy to output buffer Translate characters Write output record Finalize Close input file Close output file Print ending message How do I do that in LyX in such a way that I don't get too much space between lines, and it's obvious that this outline is a think in itself and not just part of the flow of the document?

Re: Bibliography Style apalike
Richard, thank you. I really appreciate the help. Bruce On Jun 16, 2006, at 3:44 PM, Richard Heck wrote: That file should be on your TeX installation. Use whatever find-a-file stuff you have available to locate it. I tend to put translator info in the Note field. Whatever you put there will be set at the end of the entry, using apalike (and probably apalike2). It's not a great solution. I should modify apalike so that it does have a translator field that is put in a sensible place. I'd guess it's already been done, however. Richard Bruce Pourciau wrote: Thanks, Richard. That helps. When you say Just hit the "browse" button in the dialog where you choose a bibliography style, and then go find the file apalike2.bst. do you mean find it in my tex installation or find it on the web and donwnload it?

And you can use apalike2, if you wish. Just hit the "browse" button in the dialog where you choose a bibliography style, and then go find the file apalike2.bst. It is, by the way, not that terribly hard to modify these styles once you get the hang of it. Richard Bruce Pourciau wrote: The closest bib style to what a certain journal want seems to be apalike2, while apalike is not as close but OK. LyX supports apalike (Can it be made to support apalike2?) Suppose then I use apalike. Does anyone know how I can find out what fields are supported in apalike style? For example, does it have a field called Translator and if so, does that mean I should define a custom field in BibDesk called Translator? Thanks for any help the list can provide. Bruce

Re: lyx-users Digest 8 Jun 2006 00:42:35 -0000 Issue 1922
Hello everyone, I exported my PhD thesis LyX file to html by exporting from LyX to latex and then running htlatex, bibtex'ing each aux file corresponding to each bib file included (I have sectioned bibliography, i.e. I'm using bibtopic in LyX, I guess). I also found somewhere that the bug with exporting to html from LyX may be related to the use of bibtex itself. Now I have a new problem: equations in the object html document don't show as figures but rather as: ( )T G(x,y) = ∂I, ∂I∂x ∂y -- in Firefox (2.1) in MS internet explorer I think it is a mix of misinterpreted figure and text... I had a look on various discussion groups but couldn't find any problem report like this. Have any hint on this? What kind of information is needed to detect the problem source? Thanks for your support, Diego

Change tracking
Hello! Right now the change tracking feature does only allow to reject or accept all changes. This is a very restrictive behaviour. Normally one wants to accept some changes and reject others. Can anyone tell me if there are plans for a more flexible change tracking? And when? Thanks Nicolás
