Re: Howto disable use of temporary directory?

[Mariano Llamedo Soria]

I have a similar problem with path names which included spaces or strange
chars (like ñ letters in spanish). I found a workaround moving objects to
folder which did not included any spaces or this chars.

Regards,
Mariano.

 Hi,

 Even setting absolute path doesn't work. Found a couple of posts on the net
 that hinted turning off temporary directory and generating temporary files
 in the document directory while only using relative paths with
 \graphicspath
 would help. Unfortunately i can't find a setting in LyX that allows to turn
 off temporary directory. Already tried nulling tempdir which didn't work.

 Anyone had the same issues and knows a solution or workaround?

Issue in Bibliography

[Sajjad]

Hello Folks,

Image says almost everything. I uploaded an image to  the following site.

http://www.student.itn.liu.se/~sajis997/LyXIssue.jpg


As you can see in the bibliography section the [5] in front of the fifth
reference is missing.

And the numbering of the sixth reference looks a bit odd.


Any idea what could have caused that?


Regards
Sajjad

Re: Issue in Bibliography

[curtis osterhoudt]

My *guess* is some sort of unclosed tag, or malformed entry, in the 
bibliography file, for Reference [4]. Note that the page numbers are italicized 
at the end of [4], and that the [5] is also italicized (and overlays the [6]). 
That's what I'd look at first, anyway.

Re: Displaying pdf output of LyX with AcroReader

[Hellmut Weber]

Hi,
I tried your file with LyX 1.6.5, texlive-2008, KDE-4.3.4 on 
SabayonLinux-5.1.


View pdflatex opens Acroread by default without any problem
ctrl+t opens okular by default, OK
View ps2pdf opens okular by default, OK
ctrl+d opens okular with TestAcroread.dvi, OK
Exporting to *.pdf via pdflatex and opening with Acroread, OK


Did you try to export to *.tex, then run pdflatex from the command line?

That should show you what your problem is.
I suppose your installation is broken in some respect.

Could you give the source LyX file, and say

2) (if possible) what version of pdflatex you have installed.

You could also try exporting ps2pdf instead of to pdf.


Sorry, I forgot the LyX file! I have attached it.

inserting a Latex equation

[Bernd Schubert]

Hi all,

I'm presently coping lots of tex equations into lyx and usually this works
great, but this one drives me nuts:

\begin{align*}
{\left( {\Delta ^{(1)} } \right)^2 = }
   + \frac{1} {2}\left( {k^2  + \lambda ^2 } \right)\left( {Q_1^2  + Q_2^2 } 
\right)  \\
   + \frac{1} {2}\left( {k^2  - \lambda ^2 } \right)\left( {Q_1^2  - Q_2^2 } 
\right)\cos 2\gamma \\
   + \left( {k^2  - \lambda ^2 } \right)Q_1 Q_2 \sin 2\gamma
\end{align*}

As with the other formulas I just copies it into the 
numbered formula field, but this time it add an additional backslash, 
so the correspondig tex output is

\begin{equation}
\backslash begin \{align*}...

So it didn't recognize the equations and escaped all keywords with
backslashes, hence even in compiled output the formula is displayed
as text...

Any ideas?


Thanks,
Bernd
