Enumerate
How can I do something like this?: .1 Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Ut purus elit, vestibulum ut, placerat ac, adipiscing vitae, felis. Curabitur dictum gravida mauris. Nam arcu libero, nonummy eget, consectetuer id, vulputate a, magna. Donec vehicula augue eu neque. Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas. Mauris ut leo. Cras viverra metus rhoncus sem. Nulla et lectus vestibulum urna fringilla ultrices. Phasellus eu tellus sit amet tortor gravida placerat. Integer sapien est, iaculis in, pretium quis, viverra ac, nunc. Praesent eget sem vel leo ultrices bibendum. Aenean faucibus. Morbi dolor nulla, malesuada eu, pulvinar at, mollis ac, nulla. Curabitur auctor semper nulla. Donec varius orci eget risus. Duis nibh mi, congue eu, accumsan eleifend, sagittis quis, diam. Duis eget orci sit amet orci dignissim rutrum. .2 Nam dui ligula, fringilla a, euismod sodales, sollicitudin vel, wisi. Morbi auctor lorem non justo. Nam lacus libero, pretium at, lobortis vitae, ultricies et, tellus. Donec aliquet, tortor sed accumsan bibendum, erat ligula aliquet magna, vitae ornare odio metus a mi. Morbi ac orci et nisl hendrerit mollis. Suspendisse ut massa. Cras nec ante. Pellentesque a nulla. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus. Aliquam tincidunt urna. Nulla ullamcorper vestibulum turpis. Pellentesque cursus luctus mauris. etc... The enumeration starts after a subsection, so I need some leftmargin to begin it. Thanks for to read me.

It is fixed width.

I'm not sure I've tried playing with this one, but know that attempts to
change the distance between columns (something in LyX's dialog) didn't
help. I'll play with it at work when I get there today.

child_master_document_formatting
Hi, I am having some problem with formatting my thesis. I am using Lyx1.6.4 with Miktex 2.7 on Xp machine. I am writing each chapter in a separate file and then including them in a master file. Sometimes a used \enlargethispage or \vspace commands to fill the page properly because extra space is left at the bottom of the page or by reduing the space between the float and text a bit I can get a better distributed page. I get each chapter formatted properly and when I include just that chapter in the master file it works fine I get the desired results but when I add more than one chapter than in some cases the changes that I have made doesn’t seems to work. For example, I have attached two images the difference is the extra line at the bottom of the page in the correct_output file. This is who I wanted to get the page so I have used \vspace command to move the text up (\enlagethispage did work that well in this case). The master file and everything else is same except that I get the desired result when I am not including the other chapters as child document in the master file. This happens with the float placement as well, after manual adjustment I get the float in the desired position when only that chapter is included in the master file but when I add more chapters in the master file then the float position changes. I have kept the margins and float placement as default in the every child document and only define the margin in the master file and the float options in the master are top, bottom or pages of float. So any suggestion why the formatting is changing when more than one child document is getting added to the master file. Thanks for the help Regards, Kamran <><>

they will place text; this leaves the right side pushing into the border
of the adjacent cell. I have reduced the font size to smallest--any
more makes it too small.
Is this a fixed-width column? If not, I don't see why the right side
would intrude on the border -- the column should just get wider.
I'd like to get the table to change this padding to something less, but
can't find the command despite repeated searches. I guess I don't have
the right keywords? The whole table would be set to center alignment.
I figure there's got to be a command out there for it, but I can't find
one that works yet (or perhaps I misused one already without knowing
it). Does anyone know one? Does it have to be applied on a
cell-by-cell basis or will it work on the whole table?
I'm not aware of any separate left and right side padding, but then I'm
not TeXpert. The length \tabcolsep is supposed to control the amount of
space left between columns. It's described as half the intracolumn
separation, which I take to mean that LaTeX will pad both sides of a
table cell by that much. You could try \setlength{\tabcolsep}{something
smaller} and see if it helps.

Re: LyX 1.6.4.1 and Snow Leopard
Hello, I'm a Lyx user who experienced the autosave crashing issue on Snow Leopard. Based on what I've read in this mailing list and in other user reports, I've built the 1.6.4.1 source available here ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/1.6.x/lyx-1.6.4.1.tar.gz manually disabling HAVE_FORK, and then I've used this custom build without experiencing any crash. I'm sharing the binary in case somebody finds it useful: http://www.bluepixysw.com/Lyx.zip I'm not involved in any Lyx development and I've never built Lyx before, so this is absolutely not intended as the best or official way to solve the problem: if this binary works for you, consider it a quick-and-dirty workaround until an official new version is released. Also, if you experience any issues with this binary please share them here. The binary was built on Leopard (10.5), but it seems to work fine on SL. I can provide detailed building instructions if someone is interested. The binary is Intel only (as this is just intended as a Snow Leopard fix). Of course, it is released under the usual Lyx license: http://www.lyx.org/License Ludovico Rossi
