Re: paragraph indents -- document class book (Polish version by M. W.), MWBK
You do not reply to the list. I am not able to help you, but there is
much more people knowing koma-script and latex quite good.

I agree with you completely.
The Koma does paragraph indents the way I would want, but I can't figure out
how to make the other changes I want, in particular headers like the polish
book class (attached).
Here is what I'm would want to do with headers:
move the current lehead (left even header) that has chapter # and chapter
name to the rehead (right even) position and add the word Chapter
preceeding the chapter number. Keep the same italicised font.
move the current rohead (right odd) section name to the lohead (left odd).
Keep the same italicised font.
put page numbers in lehead and rohead , except for first page of chapter
eliminate page numbers from footers
After hours of going through the various manuals I think I need something
like this, but I still cant figure out how to implement it. The
documetation is beyond me.
\lehead{\pagemark}
\rehead{\ ??? } how to designate chapter and chapter #
and title?
\rohead{\pagemark}
\lohead{\ ??? } how to designate section name?

in real, output looks very similarly to that what I remember from old

Hi Manveru,
Thank you for getting back to me. I don't think I'll get very far in
Polish
but I still like that book class. It works great for me for a few
reasons:
it seems to be more laid out like a book than some of the more popular
classes. In particular I like that the cover page is not numbered, the
headers fit and it looks (to me) more professional.
I'm not doing a lot of tweaks, mostly because after way way too many
hours I
still can't figure out how to use most advanced LyX features.
regards,
Jonathan

re: paragraph indents -- document class book (Polish version by M.

1. Is there a way to remove the indent from the initial paragraph
under
chapter, section, subsection titles in the document class book
(Polish
version by M. W.)?
2. Is there a link to document class options for MWBK, Polish
version
by M. W. other than those listed in Extended LyX Features, section
4.19
about the MWBK class?
I don't remember all options for mwbk, but this is very specific for
classic Polish book standards (let's say very old standards). In these
standards all paragraphs has indentation. And I am not sure whether
this could be removed.
Additionally, LyX layout file was buggy for this style in 1.5.3 - it
does not contains some include, what causes outline function to not
work (I dont't remember whether it was corrected or not as I am using
my own layout file).
This style has more strange behaviours, so I suggest not using it,
if you really do not know what are you doing. It is good practice to
read the manual for this style, but it is in Polish only:

Re: Mac Cursor and Math Mode problem
Hi Antonio, Antonio Rieser wrote: Two problems. I'm using LyX on the Mac (OS X.3/4.?) Which Mac OS X and which LyX version? for the first time, and after I choose 'Section' and then type, the text on the line I'm typing jumps to the right, but the cursor stays where it is. It drives me a little nuts. This behavior continues if I choose another mode, like 'Standard' or 'Theorem', if I have a 'Section' somewhere above where I'm trying to type. If I only type above all of the 'Section' areas, then the cursor acts normally. Hmm... sounds like a bug. Do you have Right-to-left language support enabled in Preferences-Language ? Also, the program does not keep the areas typed in math mode in a different color. If I scroll to a new page, the formulas start out blue, but then switch to black after a second. What you get after a second is a preview of what the formula will look like in the final output. I would prefer that they stayed blue. How is it supposed to work? You can turn off instant preview in the Preferences. Or, you can change the colour of the previewed snippet, also in Preferences. HTH. Konrad

First thing first: this is the documentation development list. I put the correct list in copy. Second: which platform?

It says something about it being unable to run ispell. That's interesting since I've set my preferences to run something other than ispell. I can't export documents to latex, even though I'm told I just need to click on the relevant export button to latex (i've have the latex stuff and i've been telling it to export to latexplain (or something like that). I don't know what else I could export to. If you run one of the 1.6 release candidates on WinXP, that's a known bug. Please use stable 1.5.6 instead. And the bibliography has been a complete mess. I have Bibtex up and running. But LyX never recognizes any new entries. If you are on Windows, the Bibtex 'push' feature does not work. You have to save your bibtex file and reload it in LyX for the new entries to be recognized. I'm going to have to use Microsoft Word to do my bibliography. To be honest, I'm quite fed up with this Latex/Lyx thing. I've spend many more hours just trying to format/figure out what the formatting means than writing my papers. The fact that the finished product looks nice does not justify anything. Fourth: LyX is a free software developed by people on their spare time, the user list is very helpful and this is *gratis*, provided that you ask gently and that you give more information. Abdel. Furthermore, I find it incomprehensible that there isn't a much more user friendly decent word processer/typesetting program. Seriously, what is wrong with having a program that the hardest thing is pointing and clicking. Why do I keep running into computer codes!? I just want to download a package that is good for X, and perhaps one that is good for Y.

Re: How to change pdf viewer?
Hi, I must confess that even in my case (LyX 1.5.4 on Mac Os X 10.3.9), if I want to change the default PDF viewer I have to put the whole path to the executable. For example, for using the pdf viewer Adobe Reader 7.1.0 for Mac it works only if I use: /Applications/Adobe\ Reader\ 7.1.0/Adobe\ Reader\ 7.1.0.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ Reader instead if i follow the other suggestions and use: open -a Adobe Reader 7.1.0 it doesn't work.

But for someone else who also might want to change the pdf viewer I add: it it not sufficient to give in the path to the application package but to the application EXECutable itself, at least on Mac-OSX, in my case: /Applications/Skim.app/Contents/MacOS/Skim What should also do the trick is open -a Skim, that lets OS X do the work of finding the app. What I actually use is the attached script that explicitly tells Skim to reload. I've disabled auto-reload in Skim, since this sometimes does not work in combination with LyX's multiple compilation of the file. So I have the attached script in ~/bin, set the script as executable (chmod u+x ...), in LyX ~/bin/SkimReload.sh, and then always use View PDF (not: Update PDF) in LyX HTH, Konrad

It is okay to ask questions on the list! That is one of the lists
purposes. People making demands or complaining loudly sometimes makes
themselves unpopular, but how do I do that? is fine.
When you use \includegraphic, the bottom edge of the picture
aligns with the text baseline. (Most letters sits on top of the
baseline, a few, like j and g extends under it.)
There are quite a few ways to change that. A simple one is to
put the image inside a \raisebox command. Raise by a negative length
to get the image lower down. Some experimentation may be necessary to
get it just right.
In some cases, one wants to line the image up so it matches something
else. Such as another image or a table. In such cases, put the
image inside a box (\parbox or \minipage). Such boxes can be aligned
in various ways: top alignment, bottom alignment, middle alignment.
You can usually get what you want, but it is not always trivial.
LyX now comes with a file named EmbeddedObjects.lyx, which
you can find from the help menu. It demonstrates lots of box stuff,
as well as the \raisebox trick. You can also find examples on the net.

Automagically reduce the spacing between ++ in the word C++
Hi,
I am currently in the process of polishing the typesetting of my
thesis. One of the things I would like to achieve is to reduce the
spacing between ++ in the words C++ and AspectC++, as this looks
somewhat strange with the font I am using.
This question is somewhat related to the thread
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg66864.html
where the original poster asked for a way to reduce the space between
the two slashes in hyperlinks. However, the original solution does not
work in my case, as C++ and AspectC++ are not typeset by any kind of
(La)TeX command, but are just ordinary words. Replacing all
occurrences with some ERT box is not an option, as this would cause
too much hassle and would not work in external material, such as
bibliographic entries. I am looking for a more elegant solution.
I think that I remember to have read about so-called catcodes (or
whatever?) in TeX, which apparently make it possible to declare
certain characters as active so that further processing is possible
whenever the TeX scanner reads such character. I wonder if it is
possible this way to declare in the preamble that
C followed by +, followed by +
is active and should be inherently substituted with something like
\mbox{C+\hspace{-.5ex}+}}
Any TeX gurus on this list who might help me?
Thanks!

Thanks Charles!
However, I am editing and working in LyX, not LaTeX. Replacing C++ in
the lyx files by the correct ERT boxes is somewhat more complicated,
as it requires inserting some extra begin_inset and end_inset lines.
Moreover, this would not cover the occurrences of C++ in the

Bibtex: limit the number of authors for \cite to three

There are five authors for the cited entry (the first character of every surname is used, plus the year). I want to limit the characters used for a citation to three, so that it looks like that: some text [NCT07]. Hence only mention the first characters of the first three authors. Is that possible?

make lyx ignore left margin to center wide images
I have a figure placing problem which i cannot find a solution to. I need to include a figure in my text that is very detailed.Therefore I need the picture to be scaled wider then the text (via scaling 120% of textwidth or 95% of page width) This works,... but the image shifts to to RIGHT as soon as the left side of IMAGE hits the lext margin of the Text/page. In other words it no longer centers because it hit the left margin, it continues scaling to the right but not the left.HOWEVER I WANT IT TO GO FURTHER LEFT THEN THE TEXT MARGIN (see image) I realise this is estheticly not ideal but I need to do it anyway :-) If somebody knows what to do.. many thanks! http://n2.nabble.com/file/n1364346/Untitled.jpg -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/make-lyx-ignore-left-margin-to-center-wide-images-tp1364346p1364346.html Sent from the LyX - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: make lyx ignore left margin to center wide images
There are a few options to solve the issue. I personally prefer the most straight forward ones, which are: A) Rotate the Figure float: Right-click on the Float:Figure inset - Settings - check Rotate sideways Another option is to rotate the actual graphic inside the float: Right- click on the figure - Settings - Angle (degrees) = 90 B) If rotating is not an option, edit the figure so that text is readable in the scale you want (say 100% column width) and rearrange the graphic blocks to fit. You could change the margin settings for that particular page, but you don't want to go there.

Then type: python /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/configure.py to reconfigure. (Note that in this line there is no /ui before configure.) I still did not have luck. Is this perhaps because i have placed my files in the wrong spot? Should the authesis.layout file i made be with all the other layout files? in Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/layouts/ instead of in username/Library/Application Support/Lyx-1.5/layouts ? And perhaps, these files (authesis.cls, aucas.clo, aut10.clo, auecon.clo) should not be in this location: users/username/library/texmf/tex/latex/authesis/ Once again, thank you very much.

The layout files should be in ~/Library/Application\ Support/LyX-1.5/layouts/. The username bit is meant to indicate your main user directory, whatever that is. That's what ~ gets you, and also should be the content of the $HOME environment variable. So if you do: echo $HOME you'll get your home directory back.

Wrong input layout file with line '\\DeclareLaTeXClass[authesis]\{authesis\}\
Can you tell me what the error means?
I looked at my layout file and found this one online in the archive.
I made mine look just like this replacing ucthesis with authesis and
it still isn't working well. Do you know if this layout file looks
more correct?
(located at: http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg59944.html)
#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this #
\DeclareLaTeXClass[ucthesis]{UC Thesis}
# Read the definitions from report.layout
Input report.layout
You need a # before the \Declare So try this:
#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this #
#\DeclareLaTeXClass{AU Thesis}
# Read the definitions from report.layout
Input report.layout
Put that in authesis.layout, and it should work now. We can hope!!

Re: install thesis class, Mac
Thanks. I changed the layout file as you suggested:
#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this #
#\DeclareLaTeXClass{authesis}
# Read the definitions from report.layout
Input report.layout
and here is the output from terminal. It looks like it worked (?). I
open LyX and my class is not available, and if I configure I still get
the error. Can you help again?, thanks.

Re: Automagically reduce the spacing between ++ in the word C++

Hi,
I am currently in the process of polishing the typesetting of my thesis.
One of the things I would like to achieve is to reduce the spacing
between ++ in the words C++ and AspectC++, as this looks somewhat
strange with the font I am using.
This question is somewhat related to the thread
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg66864.html
where the original poster asked for a way to reduce the space between
the two slashes in hyperlinks. However, the original solution does not
work in my case, as C++ and AspectC++ are not typeset by any kind of
(La)TeX command, but are just ordinary words. Replacing all occurrences
with some ERT box is not an option, as this would cause too much hassle
and would not work in external material, such as bibliographic entries. I
am looking for a more elegant solution.
I think that I remember to have read about so-called catcodes (or
whatever?) in TeX, which apparently make it possible to declare certain
characters as active so that further processing is possible whenever
the TeX scanner reads such character. I wonder if it is possible this way
to declare in the preamble that
C followed by +, followed by +
is active and should be inherently substituted with something like
\mbox{C+\hspace{-.5ex}+}}
Any TeX gurus on this list who might help me?
Quick shot:
\makeatletter
\def\plus{+}
\def\smallplusplus{\raisebox{0.6ex}{\tiny+\hspace{-0.3ex}+}}
\catcode`\+=13
\long\def+#1{\ifx#1+\smallplusplus\else\plus#1\fi}

Once forever on adding a document class in LyX
Dear all,
The addition of document classes in LyX is for sure one of the most
debated topic. I also have had the problem in the past, and with
evolving LyX (on OSX) the way to solve has become more and more easy.
Just as an example, I have installed svmono from springer in this easy
way (MAC OSX 10.5.5):
1)
download and unpack the svmono.zip from Springer
2)
Perform TeX implementation update:
a)
copy files svmono.cls, svmult.cls e svind.ist into
~/Library/texmf/tex /latex
(if a folder does not exist, then create it)
b)
copy file svind.ist into
~/Library/texmf/tex /makeindex
(if a folder does not exist, then create it)
3)
LyX implementation update: (here the problem comes)
a)
find a .layout file to modify:
- ctrl-click on the LyX package and select show content from the menu
- go inside the Resources folder and then into the layouts folder
- copy the book.layout file on the Desktop and rename it svmono.layout
- modify the second row from
# \DeclareLaTeXClass{book}
to
# \DeclareLaTeXClass{svmono}
b)
copy svmono.layout into
~/Library/Application Support/Lyx-1.5/layouts
c)
start LyX and from the LyX menu select Reconfigure
END of the story
___
Now, usually everybody has the .cls files, and nobody knows how to
create the .layout file
Here is my proposal:
Even if not tested, and then not included into the LyX distributions,
why don't we start to collect them and put somewhere on the web site,
may be with a WARNING-UNRELIABLE MATERIAL label?
I truly believe this would help a lot!
Just in case, here is my svmono.layout file:

Try deleting textclass.lst from your user directory, too. The previous

Yes, I'd considered that, too. It obviously has a decent TeX parser in
there. That said, have you look at plastex? It's python, but it also
seems to have a good parser, and it gives you a DOM-like structure that
can be manipulated all kinds of ways.

*That* is quite impressive -- and actually readable. I think I even
understand it!
I applied it immediately to my thesis document -- and had to learn
quickly that my clever-to-be idea wasn't actually that clever.
Apparently, I use C++ in quite some label texts. Well, that would be
easy to fix, wouldn't it? However, not so easy to fix would be the
listings package. You cannot imagine how many times the string C++
is used internally when you apply lstlisting to typeset C++ listings...
Turning characters into active characters is a really good way to shot
oneself into the knee :-)
I nevertheless kept this code as a comment in my preamble, just to
keep the reference. It really is the most readable application of
catcodes I have ever seen and I have learned a lot from it!

Here is what I'm would want to do with headers:
move the current lehead (left even header) that has chapter # and chapter
name to the rehead (right even) position and add the word Chapter
preceeding the chapter number. Keep the same italicised font.
move the current rohead (right odd) section name to the lohead (left odd).
Keep the same italicised font.
put page numbers in lehead and rohead , except for first page of chapter
eliminate page numbers from footers
After hours of going through the various manuals I think I need something
like this, but I still cant figure out how to implement it. The

Hi Manveru,
Thank you for getting back to me. I don't think I'll get very far in
Polish
but I still like that book class. It works great for me for a few
reasons:
it seems to be more laid out like a book than some of the more popular
classes. In particular I like that the cover page is not numbered, the
headers fit and it looks (to me) more professional.
I'm not doing a lot of tweaks, mostly because after way way too many
hours I
still can't figure out how to use most advanced LyX features.

2. Is there a link to document class options for MWBK, Polish

I don't remember all options for mwbk, but this is very specific for
classic Polish book standards (let's say very old standards). In these
standards all paragraphs has indentation. And I am not sure whether
this could be removed.
Additionally, LyX layout file was buggy for this style in 1.5.3 - it
does not contains some include, what causes outline function to not
work (I dont't remember whether it was corrected or not as I am using
my own layout file).
This style has more strange behaviours, so I suggest not using it,
if you really do not know what are you doing. It is good practice to
read the manual for this style, but it is in Polish only:

Which Mac OS X and which LyX version? for the first time, and after I choose 'Section' and then type, the text on the line I'm typing jumps to the right, but the cursor stays where it is. It drives me a little nuts. This behavior continues if I choose another mode, like 'Standard' or 'Theorem', if I have a 'Section' somewhere above where I'm trying to type. If I only type above all of the 'Section' areas, then the cursor acts normally. Hmm... sounds like a bug. Do you have Right-to-left language support enabled in Preferences-Language ? Also, the program does not keep the areas typed in math mode in a different color. If I scroll to a new page, the formulas start out blue, but then switch to black after a second. What you get after a second is a preview of what the formula will look like in the final output. I would prefer that they stayed blue. How is it supposed to work? You can turn off instant preview in the Preferences. Or, you can change the colour of the previewed snippet, also in Preferences. HTH. Konrad

It says something about it being unable to run ispell. That's interesting since I've set my preferences to run something other than ispell. I can't export documents to latex, even though I'm told I just need to click on the relevant export button to latex (i've have the latex stuff and i've been telling it to export to latexplain (or something like that).

I have Bibtex up and running. But LyX never recognizes any new entries. If you are on Windows, the Bibtex 'push' feature does not work. You have to save your bibtex file and reload it in LyX for the new entries to be recognized. I'm going to have to use Microsoft Word to do my bibliography. To be honest, I'm quite fed up with this Latex/Lyx thing. I've spend many more hours just trying to format/figure out what the formatting means than writing my papers. The fact that the finished product looks nice does not justify anything. Fourth: LyX is a free software developed by people on their spare time, the user list is very helpful and this is *gratis*, provided that you ask gently and that you give more information. Abdel. Furthermore, I find it incomprehensible that there isn't a much more user friendly decent word processer/typesetting program.

Re: How to change pdf viewer?
Hi, I must confess that even in my case (LyX 1.5.4 on Mac Os X 10.3.9), if I want to change the default PDF viewer I have to put the whole path to the executable. For example, for using the pdf viewer Adobe Reader 7.1.0 for Mac it works only if I use: /Applications/Adobe\ Reader\ 7.1.0/Adobe\ Reader\ 7.1.0.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ Reader instead if i follow the other suggestions and use: open -a Adobe Reader 7.1.0 it doesn't work.

I've disabled auto-reload in Skim, since this sometimes does not work in combination with LyX's multiple compilation of the file. So I have the attached script in ~/bin, set the script as executable (chmod u+x ...), in LyX ~/bin/SkimReload.sh, and then always use View PDF (not: Update PDF) in LyX HTH, Konrad

It is okay to ask questions on the list! That is one of the lists
purposes. People making demands or complaining loudly sometimes makes
themselves unpopular, but how do I do that? is fine.
When you use \includegraphic, the bottom edge of the picture
aligns with the text baseline. (Most letters sits on top of the
baseline, a few, like j and g extends under it.)
There are quite a few ways to change that. A simple one is to
put the image inside a \raisebox command. Raise by a negative length
to get the image lower down. Some experimentation may be necessary to
get it just right.
In some cases, one wants to line the image up so it matches something
else. Such as another image or a table. In such cases, put the
image inside a box (\parbox or \minipage). Such boxes can be aligned
in various ways: top alignment, bottom alignment, middle alignment.
You can usually get what you want, but it is not always trivial.
LyX now comes with a file named EmbeddedObjects.lyx, which
you can find from the help menu. It demonstrates lots of box stuff,
as well as the \raisebox trick. You can also find examples on the net.

Automagically reduce the spacing between ++ in the word C++
Hi,
I am currently in the process of polishing the typesetting of my
thesis. One of the things I would like to achieve is to reduce the
spacing between ++ in the words C++ and AspectC++, as this looks
somewhat strange with the font I am using.
This question is somewhat related to the thread
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg66864.html
where the original poster asked for a way to reduce the space between
the two slashes in hyperlinks. However, the original solution does not
work in my case, as C++ and AspectC++ are not typeset by any kind of
(La)TeX command, but are just ordinary words. Replacing all
occurrences with some ERT box is not an option, as this would cause
too much hassle and would not work in external material, such as
bibliographic entries. I am looking for a more elegant solution.
I think that I remember to have read about so-called catcodes (or
whatever?) in TeX, which apparently make it possible to declare
certain characters as active so that further processing is possible
whenever the TeX scanner reads such character. I wonder if it is
possible this way to declare in the preamble that
C followed by +, followed by +
is active and should be inherently substituted with something like
\mbox{C+\hspace{-.5ex}+}}
Any TeX gurus on this list who might help me?

Thanks Charles!
However, I am editing and working in LyX, not LaTeX. Replacing C++ in

as it requires inserting some extra begin_inset and end_inset lines.

For example, for using the pdf viewer Adobe Reader 7.1.0 for Mac it works only if I use: /Applications/Adobe\ Reader\ 7.1.0/Adobe\ Reader\ 7.1.0.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ Reader instead if i follow the other suggestions and use: open -a Adobe Reader 7.1.0 it doesn't work. Nothing happens. My guess is that you need: open -a Adobe Reader 7.1.0 (with the quotation marks).

make lyx ignore left margin to center wide images
I have a figure placing problem which i cannot find a solution to. I need to include a figure in my text that is very detailed.Therefore I need the picture to be scaled wider then the text (via scaling 120% of textwidth or 95% of page width) This works,... but the image shifts to to RIGHT as soon as the left side of IMAGE hits the lext margin of the Text/page. In other words it no longer centers because it hit the left margin, it continues scaling to the right but not the left.HOWEVER I WANT IT TO GO FURTHER LEFT THEN THE TEXT MARGIN (see image) I realise this is estheticly not ideal but I need to do it anyway :-) If somebody knows what to do.. many thanks! http://n2.nabble.com/file/n1364346/Untitled.jpg -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/make-lyx-ignore-left-margin-to-center-wide-images-tp1364346p1364346.html Sent from the LyX - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: make lyx ignore left margin to center wide images
There are a few options to solve the issue. I personally prefer the most straight forward ones, which are: A) Rotate the Figure float: Right-click on the Float:Figure inset - Settings - check Rotate sideways Another option is to rotate the actual graphic inside the float: Right- click on the figure - Settings - Angle (degrees) = 90 B) If rotating is not an option, edit the figure so that text is readable in the scale you want (say 100% column width) and rearrange the graphic blocks to fit. You could change the margin settings for that particular page, but you don't want to go there.

The layout files should be in ~/Library/Application\ Support/LyX-1.5/layouts/. The username bit is meant to indicate your main user directory, whatever that is. That's what ~ gets you, and also should be the content of the $HOME environment variable. So if you do: echo $HOME you'll get your home directory back.
