paths in Fedora

2011-05-02 Thread Manolo Martínez 
Dear all,

I've recently moved from Ubuntu to Fedora, and I've noticed that in this
latter distro .bst files are not where LyX looks for them. That is, they
are not in usr/share/texmf-texlive/bibtex but, rather, in
usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/bibtex. Texhash does not seem to make LyX
more aware of the change.

How should I enlighten LyX? I would have thought the path to .bst files
was standard, btw...

Lyx and xindy

2011-05-02 Thread Pascal Francq 
Hi,
I try to change from makeindex to xindy to manage two index in the document 
from LyX. I have just selected xindy in ToolsPreferencesOutputLatex 
(adding the option -l french for the French language).
Now, when I create the PDF document, no index is build (while it was with 
makeindex). I Suppose that I miss something. Any idea ?
Thanks.

Depends on what version (of LyX) you are referring to. In 2.0, xindy really 
means xindy, whereas you probably want texindy (which is also in the 
selection).

texindy is a script that provides sort of drop-in facility for 
LaTeX/makeindex users. Running xindy directly is more flexible, but you will 
have to pass some spedifications (via xindy modules).

BTW both in xindy and texindy, the language option is (capital) -L.

Shouldn't we just rescan as part of reconfiguring? I was surprised to

The argument not to do so was that it can be too time consuming, so we do not

gif animation in beamer presentation

2011-05-02 Thread Wolfgang Engelmann 
Is there a way to include a gif animation in a beamer presentation produced 
with lyx so that a click on it would start the animation? LyX expects a png 
image, if I insert the gif file as it is. 

Ultimately I would like to include several of those gif animations also in a 
book (pdf). If it is not directly possible, perhaps a link would help? But I 
do not know how I would do it (the book is available at a Tuebingen University 
Library service which houses also illustrations separately).

Depends on what version (of LyX) you are referring to. In 2.0, "xindy" really

The argument not to do so was that it can be too time consuming, so we do not 
want that on every reconfigure process, IIRC.

I admit I had assumed that was the standard behaviour...

It's very fast here. Under a second, I'd say.

Reconfigure takes a while, anyway.

I'll raise the issue on devel once things are moving again.

I've added this to trac. Unfortunately, it can't be fixed before 2.1, as
it will be a file format change.

And by the way, would you mind adding a simple test file, and the
associated images, to the bug? It'd save me having to make some to test
the fix

gif animation in beamer presentation

2011-05-02 Thread Wolfgang Engelmann 
Is there a way to include a gif animation in a beamer presentation produced 
with lyx so that a click on it would start the animation? LyX expects a png 
image, if I insert the gif file as it is. 

Ultimately I would like to include several of those gif animations also in a 
book (pdf). If it is not directly possible, perhaps a link would help? But I 
do not know how I would do it (the book is available at a Tuebingen University 
Library service which houses also illustrations separately). 

Help is appreciated

Wolfgang

I agree that UNITY is junk, so I simply restarted in "ubuntu classic" 
(AKA gnome...) and all is fine.
