"Problem" environment
I am preparing some home work in LyX and would like to have a series of "Problem"s. I used the "Problem" environment, but, if I have two "Problem" environments in succession LyX merges them together. I can artifically insert a Ctrl-space in "Standard" environment between two "Problem" environments, but I wonder if I am doing something wrong. Thanks for any help. I am LyX 2.1.3. --shiv--

Compile child document with cross-references
I am currently working on a thesis document made of one master and several child documents, one for each chapter. I am using the procedure described in http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/Multidoc#multipart-bib to use a separate bibliography when compiling only one chapter (i.e. only one child document). Though it works for the bibliography, it does not for the chapter number and the cross-references. The former appears as Chapter 1, and the latter as question marks. Is there a way to compile the child document only with the correct chapter number and cross-references? Thanks in advance!

For example, non of the bst styles i know have a defined date field, but all just support a year entry. Please consider the following example: %% \documentclass{article} \begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib} @bok{nobook, author={maggie}, title={the title}, } @misc{entry, date={2015-05-11}, author={maggie}, titel={not title, but titel}, } \end{filecontents} \begin{document} \nocite{*} \bibliographystyle{plain} \bibliography{\jobname} \end{document} %% Making biblatex work might be a fruitful endeavour, as hacking bst-styles is a pain. Best regards Johannes The real error messgae would be better. For example, inputenc doesn't know the option T1, but package fontnec does. I guess this is a typo, though. It is also possible, that you have characters in your bibliography database, that are not known for your current encoding and need to be defined first. There is a pretty simple algorithm to limit the reasson to a very small area, called *creating a minimal working example* [1]. That is something, in my opinion, best done down at the pure LaTeX level, as LyX can and its extra stuff can be quite confusing and distracting. Once we have a bit of actual code producing the error, i am sure we can find a solution. Johannes [1] http://www.dickimaw-books.com/latex/minexample/html/

If you do not see the option, it is not accommodated by the template you have chosen. The "shadow" theme definitely allows for it, so try that first.

If you have misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue, and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.

Have a look at 'beamer-conference-ornate-20min.lyx' in the collection of templates that come with LyX. FYI by default you can quickly add a short title using the keyboard shortcut Alt-a 1. Will
