The problem is that, for some reason, certain macros the child needs are not being written to the preamble for the master, when those constructs are only present in the child. What's weirder is that they DO appear in View>Source for the master, when you check "Complete source". I'll try to fix this soon. A workaround would be (a) to export the child as LaTeX, (b) open it in a text editor, (c) find the declarations of the \textgreek and \lyxmathsym stuff in there, and (d) manually copy that stuff to the preamble of the master. Ugly, I know, but it should help. Richard PS Can you please report this bug on trac, and attach these files?

Re: Portable version of LyX? [solved]

It should be easy to do and it ist very important for the . I use LyTeX for my LyX and it seems to be just fine, although it's version 1.6.5 and i haven't wanted to chance an upgrade to 2.0 for fear of compatibility problems..or completely knocking out my LyX. So I might be willing to try this idea to make a new folder and renaming the old one. That won't break anything and I could always go back if it doesn't work as I expect... or even .. I could just copy and make two flash drives; one with 1.6.5 and one with 2.0. Could you be specific on how you make a new lyx folder?.. I mean what do you download and install to make just the folder and not install the full system with miktex, etc. Thanks, Phil

Dear All, Could you please tell me the difference between 'LyX note' and 'comment'? Thanks in advance, Paul
Child document and "Undefined control sequence"
Dear all, I am having a problem with a child document - I attached the minimal working files to be copied in the same directory. The "master" file contains the child document "Child" (as include). When I try to compile the PDF I get several "Undefined control sequence" error. If I open only the child document "Child", I can compile the PDF with no problem. I tried some solutions I found on the list but with no success so far. Some more information: - AMS maths package seems to be active in both files - Preamble is empty for both files Any idea on how can I solve the problem? Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi,
I am using Lyx-2.0 with KOMA-book class (pdflatex) on Mac OSX 10.6.8.
I am often using the cross-reference option 'Formatted reference' as it is

Is this a bug? Has anyone else this problem?

Indeed I am using subfloats.
Thanks for pointing that out.

Added this, but no change.
What I recognized is that formatted references (I use refstyle) are fine within
a one file document, i.e. added 'section'. But when I have child documents
included they appear as '??'
