LyX 1.5.x erases the temp dvi file
One of my LyX file, I can't understand why, erases the temp dvi file when I want to preview the dvi, so I can't view the resulting dvi. I always get the error message there is no such xxxyyy.dvi file (or something similar -- sorry for the exactness, I'm at the office under WinXP). This behavior happens only when trying to preview dvi, I can preview postscript or pdf without any problem. My LyX problematic file produces a 14 pages long printout. Someone has a hint ? Raymond
Re: List of Figures - Shorter Text
\caption[Short Text for List]{Long Text for Figure}.
How can I model the first part [] in Lyx?
Go with your cursor in the caption then do:
Insert - Short Title (Kurztitel) - type the short one
Thant's it! Applies also for tables -- just any caption.
List of Figures - Shorter Text
Hi,
I would like to have a shorter text in the list of figures than the text
in the description of the figure. In Latex I can write it as
\caption[Short Text for List]{Long Text for Figure}.
How can I model the first part [] in Lyx?
Thanks for your help,

With

You can add the option german to the document class options (menu

Re: HTML and URLs in LYX
I just rewrote the review on my website about LyX to reflect LyX's much better behavior and to thank you for fixing the bug - http://www.goland.org/lyx. It's amazing how much better LyX has gotten in the year since I originally wrote that review. It all kind of sneaked up on me so it was great to re-write the review and delete a bunch of sections that weren't necessary anymore because LyX's default behavior is so much better. I also wanted to say THANK YOU for getting labels to work. When I first tried LyX labels I could only get them to output page numbers which produced garbage in HTML. Now that they can do section numbers they actually work in HTML. Is there any thought around getting references to be able to include both the section number and the text of the section's title instead of just the section number? The section number by itself tends to disappear in HTML. Also, any hope of getting a reference to jump to the exact location of the label ala the behavior you get with \hypertarget and \hyperlink instead of to the start of the section? Thanks, Yaron P.S.

Hello
I'm using Lyx 1.4.4 with Win XP and Document class: book
For my thesis I need to added dots between chapter names and their page
numbers in TOC.
I can do that with:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@dottedtocline{0}{1.5em}{2.3em}} %
However in TOC, this removes formatting of the chapter entries and removes
section indents.
From what I can tell, I should be able to use tocloft package but when I use
it I get error:

Can anybody suggest a solution for this?

You can add the option "german" to the document class options (menu
Document->Settings).
I'll add this hint to the docs.

Re: HTML and URLs in LYX
I just rewrote the review on my website about LyX to reflect LyX's much better behavior and to thank you for fixing the bug - http://www.goland.org/lyx. It's amazing how much better LyX has gotten in the year since I originally wrote that review. It all kind of sneaked up on me so it was great to re-write the review and delete a bunch of sections that weren't necessary anymore because LyX's default behavior is so much better. I also wanted to say THANK YOU for getting labels to work. When I first tried LyX labels I could only get them to output page numbers which produced garbage in HTML. Now that they can do section numbers they actually work in HTML. Is there any thought around getting references to be able to include both the section number and the text of the section's title instead of just the section number? The section number by itself tends to disappear in HTML. Also, any hope of getting a reference to jump to the exact location of the label ala the behavior you get with \hypertarget and \hyperlink instead of to the start of the section? Thanks, Yaron P.S. Does anyone know a decent margin setting for letter size paper so when I produce a PDF my article doesn't have insanely large margins? Richard Heck wrote: Yaron Y.

You have made using LyX much easier. You're welcome. So if I may push my luck, is there any hope of getting LyX to natively support the href macro? There's a bug report about this already. I'm hoping to get this sorted out. Richard
Re: apa styles and the dreaded (?.?)
Thanks Richard.
It looks like Mateo had the simple answer. I thought
I had used that option before. Come to think of it I
just did a complete registry clean etc. I may have
cured something while doing that. Love Windows. :)

tocloft
Hello
I'm using Lyx 1.4.4 with Win XP and Document class: book
For my thesis I need to added dots between chapter names and their page
numbers in TOC.
I can do that with:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@dottedtocline{0}{1.5em}{2.3em}} %
However in TOC, this removes formatting of the chapter entries and removes
section indents.
From what I can tell, I should be able to use tocloft package but when I use
it I get error:
LaTeX Error: Command [EMAIL PROTECTED] already defined.
Can anybody suggest a solution for this?
Thank you
Leo
Re: apa styles and the dreaded (?.?)
I have LyX working beautifully with apacite so far.
Next question, sorry.
Is there any way to get apacite or similar to work
with the article class. I seem to be able to use
apalike with report but not with article
Thanks

Re: Table paste bug?
I re-tested this on 1.5.1 (PPC 10.4.10, Universal binary)-- The first problem (formatting being removed) is indeed fixed. The second problem (inability to copy/paste multiple cells) is still there. Everything is pasted into one cell instead of preserving the original organization.

On the fly spellcheck?
Hi all, A member of my local LUG just did his first LyX document and liked it, but he wished he had on-the-fly spellchecking instead of having to spellcheck the whole document at the end. Is there any way to do on-the-fly spellchecking? Is there any plan to add on-the-fly spellchecking later? Thanks SteveT Steve Litt Author: Universal Troubleshooting Process books and courseware http://www.troubleshooters.com/
