Multi-page table

2019-09-03 Thread Rich Shepard

The table has 84 rows and needs to be handled by longtable. Right clicking
on the header row and selecting Settings -> Multipage tab I set multipage
'on' and set the selected (header) row to be the header row on all pages.

Looking at both the dvips preview and the pdflatex .pdf file the table runs
off the bottom of the first page and is not continued on following pages.

I must have missed something and am not seeing what that is. Please show me
how to do this properly.

Regards,

Rich

Fixed.

While trying to work with a 2-column, 84-row table I ended up with multiple
copies of chapters and the table integrated in the document. When I cleaned
that up the lables were easy to fix.

Re: lyx disk: error: LyX could not create the temporary directory '/tmp/lyx_tmpbuf1'

2019-09-03 Thread Wolfgang Engelmann



Quoting John White :

After reconfiguring, I would save one of the problem files to a usb  
stick and see

if lyx will open it from there.

lyx_tmpdir.JvcZAzSC4585

Whatever lyx file I try to load (file>recent>...  or file>open>...) I
get always this error.

What should I do to get lyx working again?

Thanks, John, but there seems to be a bigger problem which I am  
facing. I can't open an usb stick, tells me, that it can't be invoked  
(kann nicht eingebunden werden in German). Trying to start Jabref it  
tells me 'read only file system', lyx disk: error as before: LyX could  
not create the temporary directory '/tmp/lyx_tmpbuf1' (Disk is full  
maybe?).
df tells me there is enough storage on the disk. Firefox tells me if I  
want to send a mail: Unable to save your message as a draft. Sending  
of the message failed.

Fortunately webmail works.
I am on Linux Mint. I am afraid I have to try to get help from the  
Tuebingen Linux User Group.

This looks like a good idea. I believe that master document settings override 
child settings as I’m sure you know. I’ll give it a try.


I put the common preamble settings in a preamble layout in the document.

Also, I use branches that are defined in one document but not the other.
