  Oops! Looking at that list I see that the words added from the currently

Words not added to personal dictionary?

[Rich Shepard]

  When I spell check a document I often click the 'Add' button so that word
is added to my personal dictionary and accepted as correct from then on.
However, these words are not being added to my dictionary (lyx-2.0.7)
because they are flagged each time I check spelling.

  I see a dictionary in ~/.lyx (pwl_english.dict) but wonder why words have
not been added.

Thoughts?

Your thesis-ku.lyx (master document) begins with
\lyxformat 413
\begin_document
\begin_header
\textclass kuthesiss   <


Obviously LyX doesn't know anything about the path to your 
kuthesis.layout file, which is in ./stylefiles.

It will only look for it in the root folder, where thesis-ku.lyx is.

Putting kuthesis.layout there solves the problem, at least for me 
(Linux).

Yes. From the wrapfig manual:

It is just not possible to put a wrap figure in a list.
  None of the existing packages can do this. You can do some

I wouldn't think so. That's got to do with modules.


When I tried out the supplied document, I did get 3-4 error messages,
but each was warranted: one missing class, three missing included
documents. I would suspect here user confusion and not major issue
with LyX.


Yes, but the warnings are annoying, since the class file is avaiable, 
and is found on compilation. Also, this particular warning cannot be 
disabled, as others can be.

Please file a bug report about this, if we don't resolve it here.

For our doctoral students, I worked out a LyX example (LaTeX as well) 
and it uses a custom class file. I have the cls file in the document 
directory. Along with a biblio style and the document itself.  All was 
well until LyX 2.0.7.


I'm trying to think what could have changed in 2.0.7.


http://pj.freefaculty.org/guides/Computing-HOWTO/KU-thesis/

(I'd like advice on how to create a real LyX template that would 
conceal the ERT in the LyX main document, but that's a different email 
I need to write to you).


I don't think that will be hard.

The PDF output passed the inspection of our administrators, and we 
have started teaching students how to use this. So far, there have 
been 6 dissertations written with LyX at KU.


Excellent.

LyX 2.0.7 seems to have introduced a new warning that is driving the 
users crazy. I had never seen it before this Saturday.  Maybe this is 
just in Windows. Every time they open the LyX dissertation document, 
warnings pop up over and over saying the kuthesis.cls file is not 
installed and they cannot compile anything until they get it.


I assume this is the warning that reads: "The selected document 
class...requires external files that are not available. The document 
class can still be used, but the document cannot be compiled until..."? 
It is possible that this could be due to a change not in LyX itself but 
in MikTeX or whatever.


This is triggered once per document. But if there are child documents, 
it is triggered for each of those, too. So that is probably why you see 
multiple popups.


I say ignore those warnings, click OK 5 times, the document compiles, 
all is well. But I'd rather not bother with the warnings.


A workaround: Find the file textclass.lst in the user directory, which 
itself can be found from Help> About LyX. Open that file and find the 
line for ku-thesis. The fourth string on that line will be "false". 
Change it to "true". Make the fifth string on the line an empty string: 
"". So you'll have something like:

"ku-thesis", "ku-thesis", "Thesis (KU)", "true", ""


Just to whine about Windows for a while


I'd suggest you post this as a separate message, preferably to lyx-devel.

Dear Rafa,
Please write in English on this ML, as this would allow a much larger
number of people to help. Also, could you please provide us with minimal
example that exhibits our issue? Otherwise it is very hard to understand
what you want to achieve, and what goes wrong.

En efecto, lo que se describe en esa sección de ayuda es
justamente lo que hago con el wrapfig, pero independientemente
de donde coloque la figura y la configuración posterior que le
de sobre alineación derecha/izquierda, etc...obtengo siempre el
mismo resultado: la figura no aparece envuelta por el texto,

pdflatex suddenly doesn't produce proper index

[Juan Chulilla]

Hi all,

I am a long time lyx user. In one of my PC, there have appeared a problem 
that I cannot solve nor even trace and it is driven me nuts.

With most of my PCs, a ToC works at it is intended. However, since a couple 
of weeks ago, I reinstalled both Lyx and MiKTeX and suddenly ToC starts to 
appear empty. The chapter structure of PDF appears sometimes and sometimes 
not.

PDF is produced and no error message appears

I reinstalled several times, cleansing temp files and config files as best as 
I could. I assume that makeindex is involved, since when I compile LaTeX -> 
PDF with TeXnikcenter, this is the error that appears

MakeIndex > input index file whatever.idx not found

LuaTeX works, but it is very, very, VERY slow.

I have been producing outputs with pdflatex since 2005 and I have never find 
a problem so untraceable as this.

What do you think, people? Why ToC stops being produced on one LyX/MikTex 
installations and not in the rest of mine?

Thanks in advance for any sanity advices,

Juan

LyX has a Twitter account

Thank you!
