 I run into this, too. Not sure how to solve it, and what it means
 exactly. As far as I understand, your document contains characters
 that are not present in the encoding of the chosen language (Document
  Settings  Language). You might try two things with these settings:
 change the language from English (assuming it's your default) to the
 specific language in which you're writing (1) and/or change the
 encoding to utf8.

 From my experience, you might get intro trouble with both workarounds.
 Then, more qualified help is needed.

Re: APA Style reference with url and lastchecked field does not show Retrieved ...

2007-11-11 Thread Roberto Gorjão

Olá, Mirko,

First of all, sorry about the long time without answering. I was working 
non stop to finish a job before the deadline.


I'm not sure if this may be the cause, but the Apacite package was 
updated by its author on the 10th of September, so, if you do not have 
this last version, what you're trying to do with the lastchecked field 
might not work. In fact, these new features did not appear in the 
previous version of Apacite's manual, so I'm pretty convinced that this 
new package is really required. Try do determine if your package is updated.


The apacite package, by the information given by the MikTeX packages 
browser, is constituted by the following files (you probably may confirm 
this in the Apacite manual; the files do not appear all in the same 
directory):


apa5ex.bib
apacite.bst
apacitex.bst
apacdoc.sty
apacite.sty
apacite.dvi
apacite-src.tar.bz2

In your previous message you asked for an example of one of my entries. 
Here is an on-line book entry:


@BOOK{Raymond_Cathedral_2000,
 title = {The Cathedral and the Bazaar},
 year = {2000},
 author = {Raymond, Eric},
 lastchecked = {September, 2007},
 owner = {Roberto Gorjão},
 timestamp = {2007.09.20},
 url = 
{http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/cathedral-bazaar/cathedral-bazaar/}

}

In the PDF it outputs like this:

Raymond, E. (2000). The cathedral and the bazaar. Retrieved August,
  2007, from http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/
  cathedral-bazaar/cathedral-bazaar/

So, as you see, it breaks as necessary (in the PDF, lines appear 
justified) and the expressions Retrieved and , from  are added 
automatically.


In another of your previous messages you've asked about my preamble 
configuration. Here it goes:


\usepackage{url}
\usepackage{alltt} % this last one has nothing to do with what you need.

I do not know if any of this helped. Let me know if you think that I can 
be of further assistance.


Cumprimentos,

Roberto

How to I add a bibtex bibliographic style to lyx

2007-11-11 Thread Graham Smith
I know this has to be explained in the help documentation, but I can't 
find it.


I have downloaded the apalike citation style, using the Miktex Package 
Manager. I have reconfigured and restarted Lyx and rather naively, it 
seems, expected apalike to appear in the list of Bibtex bibliography 
citation style options.


According to the Miktex package manager the apalike package has been 
downloaded in /uncategorized, but I cannot find this folder in the 
MikTex directory.


I would appreciate some help, but happy to be pointed to the appropriate 
help file.


Thanks,

2007-11-11 Thread Romuald POTEAU
Dear Lyx users,
I have updated my system to OpenSuse10.3 (previous version : 10.1) and I
obtain a latex error I did not encounter before, and which seems
specific of the compilation of prosper documents.
The message is tex capacity exceeded. Sorry [save_size = 5000].
It is obtained with my old 1.4.3 version of lyx, as well as with the new
version installed with opensuse (1.5.1).
I have tried to increase the save_size parameter in
/usr/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf, without success.
Is it necessary to say that this problem did not appear with the
previous version of suse ?

Is it necessary to update the prosper layout ?

Help would be greatly appreciate.

Many thanks,

Images - Multiple Image Scaling Changes and Screen/Print settings

2007-11-11 Thread greg kise

Hi All,

I have two questions relating to images/figures:

1. Is there a way to change the settings for multiple images  
contained in figure-floats? For instance if I place a number of  
figures on my page, each with an image, is there a way to select all  
the images to change their scaling at the same time? If the images  
are inside floats, it appears I can grab all the floats, but I can't  
grab/edit all the images.


BTW - I would do this if I was trying to get a certain number of  
images per page and I had to change the scaling to achieve that.



2. Is there any way to link the output scaling with the screen  
scaling? It would be nice if I set the output at say 25% to have the  
screen scaling automatically reflect that change, rather than having  
to change the scaling twice for each image. I couldn't find a  
preference, but thought maybe there was some deeper way of doing this.


Thanks!
greg

2007-11-11 Thread Romuald POTEAU
Dear Lyx users,
I have updated my system to OpenSuse10.3 (previous version : 10.1) and I
obtain a latex error I did not encounter before, and which seems
specific of the compilation of prosper documents.
The message is tex capacity exceeded. Sorry [save_size = 5000].
It is obtained with my old 1.4.3 version of lyx, as well as with the new
version installed with opensuse (1.5.1).
I have tried to increase the save_size parameter in
/usr/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf, without success.
Is it necessary to say that this problem did not appear with the
previous version of suse ?

Is it necessary to update the prosper layout ?

Help would be greatly appreciate.

Many thanks,
Romuald

Images - Multiple Image Scaling Changes and Screen/Print settings

2007-11-11 Thread greg kise

Hi All,

I have two questions relating to images/figures:

1. Is there a way to change the settings for multiple images  
contained in figure-floats? For instance if I place a number of  
figures on my page, each with an image, is there a way to select all  
the images to change their scaling at the same time? If the images  
are inside floats, it appears I can grab all the floats, but I can't  
grab/edit all the images.


BTW - I would do this if I was trying to get a certain number of  
images per page and I had to change the scaling to achieve that.



2. Is there any way to link the output scaling with the screen  
scaling? It would be nice if I set the output at say 25% to have the  
screen scaling automatically reflect that change, rather than having  
to change the scaling twice for each image. I couldn't find a  
preference, but thought maybe there was some deeper way of doing this.


Thanks!
greg

Re: APA Style reference with url and lastchecked field does not show "Retrieved ..."

2007-11-11 Thread Roberto Gorjão

Olá, Mirko,

First of all, sorry about the long time without answering. I was working 
non stop to finish a job before the deadline.


I'm not sure if this may be the cause, but the Apacite package was 
updated by its author on the 10th of September, so, if you do not have 
this last version, what you're trying to do with the lastchecked field 
might not work. In fact, these new features did not appear in the 
previous version of Apacite's manual, so I'm pretty convinced that this 
new package is really required. Try do determine if your package is updated.


The apacite package, by the information given by the MikTeX packages 
browser, is constituted by the following files (you probably may confirm 
this in the Apacite manual; the files do not appear all in the same 
directory):


apa5ex.bib
apacite.bst
apacitex.bst
apacdoc.sty
apacite.sty
apacite.dvi
apacite-src.tar.bz2

In your previous message you asked for an example of one of my entries. 
Here is an on-line book entry:


@BOOK{Raymond_Cathedral_2000,
 title = {The Cathedral and the Bazaar},
 year = {2000},
 author = {Raymond, Eric},
 lastchecked = {September, 2007},
 owner = {Roberto Gorjão},
 timestamp = {2007.09.20},
 url = 
{http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/cathedral-bazaar/cathedral-bazaar/}

}

In the PDF it outputs like this:

Raymond, E. (2000). The cathedral and the bazaar. Retrieved August,
  2007, from http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/
  cathedral-bazaar/cathedral-bazaar/

So, as you see, it breaks as necessary (in the PDF, lines appear 
justified) and the expressions "Retrieved" and ", from " are added 
automatically.


In another of your previous messages you've asked about my preamble 
configuration. Here it goes:


\usepackage{url}
\usepackage{alltt} % this last one has nothing to do with what you need.

I do not know if any of this helped. Let me know if you think that I can 
be of further assistance.


Cumprimentos,

Roberto

How to I add a bibtex bibliographic style to lyx

2007-11-11 Thread Graham Smith
I know this has to be explained in the help documentation, but I can't 
find it.


I have downloaded the apalike citation style, using the Miktex Package 
Manager. I have reconfigured and restarted Lyx and rather naively, it 
seems, expected apalike to appear in the list of Bibtex bibliography 
citation style options.


According to the Miktex package manager the apalike package has been 
downloaded in /uncategorized, but I cannot find this folder in the 
MikTex directory.


I would appreciate some help, but happy to be pointed to the appropriate 
help file.


Thanks,

Graham,

Then maybe you need to do the same at LyX's side. See point 2.2 of the
UserGuide, and choose Tolls->Reconfigure.

The actual directions about how to install new packages are in the
Help->Costumization document, at point 5.1.

If neither of these are of help, then you'll have to wait for one of LyX's
Gurus to answer.
