 From my script:

 The URLs break rather nicely here except for one (Nom10), which is however
 difficult to break automatically. It gets significantly better if I put the

field in the entries, e.g.

export latex error

[Wolfgang Engelmann]

I try to export a lyx file to latex (normal), but get an error.
The latex protocol under documents is, however, greyed out; therefore I 
can't send the error output. Even if I rename the lyx file and try again 
the latex protocoll is not accessable. Did somebody ran into such a 
situation and could solve it? Other lyx files work alright with the export.

Re: Biblatex not not found by LyX work on new computer / OS 10.10.3

Thank you.

I now removed the .txt-ending, so that I just have .module as ending. I 
reconfigured, but still, LyX does not find biblatex.module. Could I use 
Biblatex-citation-styles instead? When I try I get another error-message:

How could I get biblatex working? Are there any additional test I could do to

Additional tip: In order to get the German references broken/hyphenated 
correctly, add the "autolang=hyphen" option to biblatex and use the LangID 
field in the entries, e.g.

@book{Woh03,
author = {Jan Wohlgemuth},
location = {Berlin},
publisher = {Wei{\ss}ensee Verlag},
title = {{Das Diathesesystem der Bahasa Indonesia}},
year = {2003},
LangID = {german}
}

Re: Biblatex not not found by LyX work on new computer / OS 10.10.3

[jezZiFeR]

Thank you.

I now removed the .txt-ending, so that I just have .module as ending. I 
reconfigured, but still, LyX does not find biblatex.module. Could I use 
Biblatex-citation-styles instead? When I try I get another error-message:
bibliographystyle invalid.

How could I get biblatex working? Are there any additional test I could do to 
find out what ist wrong?

Just in case I add a minimal-file and would be very thankful if anybody could 
help.

Thanks
Jess

Should be fine. I am not a Mac user, though,

No. It should be named biblatex.module (*.module is the file suffix).

This is the TeX directory. Definitely not the correct place for LyX modules.

This is the biblatex.module. It is called "Biblatex-citation-styles" in the 
GUI. So if Document > Settings > Modules lets you select this, the module is

Yes, biblatex does not use the \bibliographystyle command of BibTeX. Terefore, 
the BibTeX inset must be put in a LyX note.

Delete the BibTeX inset which is outside the LyX note. See attached file (I 
cannot test this file myself, since I do not have the *.bib file).

Re: Biblatex not not found by LyX work on new computer / OS 10.10.3

[jezZiFeR]

Thanks again.

Sorry, I wanted to mail the .bib, not the .tex-file. But I removed the BibTeX 
inset, which has been double anyway. I left the one in the LyX-note, and now it 
works. 

BTW: it is strange for me, the whole thing did not work, before I installed 
biblatex.module from my old computer, which is much older. Its name is not 
biblatex.module, but biblatex.module.module. With the other one bilatex does 
not work. 

Best

Jürgen, I stripped down the attached LyX-file to the minimum I could.
You will probably need the bibtex-file too.
Hope you have all you need now and thanks in advance,

The URLs break rather nicely here except for one (Nom10), which is however
difficult to break automatically. It gets significantly better if I put the
following commands in the preamble (these basically instruct LaTeX not to
run lines into the margins whatsoever):

\tolerance 1414
\hbadness 1414
\emergencystretch 1.5em
\hfuzz 0.3pt
\widowpenalty = 1
\vfuzz \hfuzz
\raggedbottom

See attached PDF.

BTW instead of writing "Retrieved May 2015 from:" into the pages field,
consider using biblatex's urldate field.

Additional tip: In order to get the German references broken/hyphenated

@book{Woh03,

Hi Jürgen,
thank you so much for sharing your vast knowledge and expertise with the 
LyX community!
And I am looking forward to experience the number of new features 
(especially in the linguistics) you have developed and to be implemented 
in LyX version 2.2.x.

Hut ab!

Michael

Maybe it may be useful for other users.

So I attach my script (together with pyparsing.py library) to this
email.

Please add info about my script to Lyx.org site. (I know no password
to upload the files and thus cannot do it myself without your help.)

 From my script:

# This script receives a list of *.lyx filenames in command line.
# In each .lyx file it searches for labels consecutively following one

# Then it removes all but the first label and in all supplied .lyx

Very, very nice!

This would be worth uploading to the LyX wiki.
