Possessive author names in citations
The web page below shows how to modify standard BibLaTeX
to allow possessive author names in citations (use all three lines in the URL) :
https://tex.stackexchange.com/
questions/22273/
author-name-of-textcite-as-possessive
For example, suppose a bib file has the following entry:
@book{knuth,
author = {Donald E. Knuth},
title = {The {{\TeX}book}},
publisher = {Addison-Wesley},
date= {1984}
}
Ordinary usage might include \textcite{knuth}.
The line above would look like:
Ordinary usage might include Knuth (1984).
But with the code shown on the web page, the following would hold.
Modified usage might include \posscite{knuth}.
This would appear as:
Ordinary usage might include Knuth's (1984).
OK. I can get this to work in plain LaTeX and perhaps in LyX by using ERT.
But how can I add the possessive style as a Citation style in
LyX's Citation dialog window for citations so that all citations
can be done though the same interface and without ERT?

Re: Accessing non-Latex truetype font in LyX
Currently I'm perfectly happy to abuse a san serif font for the moment. I've never liked that family anyway. The fontspec document looks a bit intimidating but I'll give it a go. I suppose that the local layout approach would work, since one probably get away without the display font showing Roman; it would be annoying but not a real deal-breaker. Thanks to both of you. john On 25 February 2015 at 04:16, Liviu Andronic wrote: > On Wed, Feb 25, 2015 at 10:05 AM, Guenter Milde > wrote: > > On 2015-02-24, John Kane wrote: > > > >> [-- Type: text/plain, Encoding: quoted-printable --] > > > >> I have managed to get my screen font and output fonts set to 'unspell' > as > >> wanted and it is working well. > > > >> My next problem is that would like to mix two fonts in the body of the > >> text.

how can I insert an html id tag
Hi List -- Using Lyx 2.1.3 on a Linux platform. We have just gone live with a Users Manual for a Linux distribution in both html and pdf format. For the most part, the conversion to html goes well, and only minor adjustments need to be made to the css or the html itself. If it helps, the html Manual is here: http://www.mepiscommunity.org/user_manual_mx15/mxum.html One annoying problem I have not been able to solve is how to avoid inserting a large number of id tags manually into the converted html every time we do a revision of any kind. As you know, these tags are used to direct outside links to a specific portion of the document. For instance, I insert to direct the Help link from an application about managing users to the appropriate location. I have searched the documentation without luck so far, and a general web search has also not been productive. Is there a way to do this inside Lyx? Thanks for any help.

Example attached The easiest way would be to (ab?)use the settings for the sans-serif and/or teletyped/fixed-width fonts. Of course, this only works if you do not require two different font *families* both complete with matching variant shapes. In this case, you will need to read the extensive documentation available for the "fontspec" LaTeX package (on my TeXLive system, the command `texdoc fontspec` brings up fontspec.pdf) and use a mixture of custom premble settings (Document>Settings>User Preamble and ERT (raw LaTeX) in the document to achieve the goal. The fontspec definition also describes how different fonts can be assigned to different languages. It may work to do such a setup in the user preamble and then change fonts by assigning text languages. Günter
