Proof Appendix: Looking for paid support
Hi there, I'm trying to create a proof appendix in Lyx that repeats the theorem/proposition/lemma statements from main text and then includes the proof. I wnat the numbering to be the same in the main text and appendix, and I want hyperlinks to and from the main theorem to appendix version. I've tried following the instructions on some tex stack exchange <https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/519867/restate-theorems-in-lyx> posts <https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/195296/appendix-section-numbering-that-mimicks-theorem-numbers?rq=1>, but I couldn't get it to work. I'd like to hire someone for a quick screenshare lesson to get this working. I'm offering $50 to get it done. If you are willing to do it only for a higher amount, please let me know, and I will consider it. Should be pretty fast if you know what you're doing.

change window focus with shortcuts.
Hello all. I'm not a completely new user to Lyx, but I have a challenge I hope someone can help with. I'd like to switch focus from the main window when writing text, to the spellchecker sidebar, then back, using only shortcuts. I cannot for the life of me find a command, or shortcut to do this. I can open the spellchecker using F7, but i then have to use the mouse to switch focus, and back again. I've been through the XFCE docs, and what docs there are for Lyx on shortcuts, but no luck. This probably something blindingly simple, but i've yet to see it. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: LyX efficient language/spell-check toggle
I have managed to write a serviceable script that uses LyX server and LFUNs and toggles between languages only with the shortcut Alt + Shift. I am quite pleased with the result, but I have come up with a slight improvement, that can be achieved by tracking the current language used to spell check in LyX. However, all the LFUNs seem to be one-directional, that is they transfer information from the external application to LyX. Is there a way (for example, a get-language LFUN that I am missing) to echo the current LyX language in the terminal, so that I can use it in a script? Cheers.

Re: LyX efficient language/spell-check toggle
Thanks, Richard. That seems like a step in the right direction. In the LyX functions user guide I indeed read about command sequences. One interesting point is that you can toggle between languages using the language lfun, with no arguments. However, I still cannot find a way for a single shortcut to do exactly what I want. That is because LyX does not capture shortcuts used for system keyboard layout toggle. So, it's not possible to set a shortcut of Alt + Shift - language toggle. I would not mind having to use another shortcut, as long as it's only 1, to have the appropriate results. For example, something like that would require an lfun sequence like: layout toggle ; language toggle. I still cannot achieve the layout toggle. I checked out keyboard mappings a bit, but to no avail. Another thing that caught my eye is that you can control LyX from other programs using lfuns. So, I though as a last resort solution to write a bash script that senses the layout toggle and sends the appropriate lfun to LyX. However, in the lfuns manual, I only found a small reference to that feature at the beginning. Is there any detailed documentation about this? Cheers.

about python3 and lyx
Hi lyxers! I have lyx 2.1.2 in both Windows 7 x64 and Ubuntu 14.04 x64, it runs fine when installing. Now my work depends a lot on python, specifically on python 3.4 which is the default in both of my systems. I have managed to run python scripts within lyx and then the problem arises: lyx have its own bundled python distribution in windows, so every python script runs in the bundled version which is python 2.7, so my scripts doesn´t run on windows. I tried to change the default python version in lyx so it is forced to us python3 and then it crashed because a lot of its default scripts doesn´t run anymore (ie, the reconfigure.py script). I know in linux there is both python 2.7 and 3.4 living together and you can select between them, but in windows I can´t manage to achieve this behavior. My questions are exclusive (or not) 1. Is there a plan to move everything to python3 so we can finally forget the old python2? Or 2. Is there a way to have both python3 and bundled python version in lyx living together in windows?

Hi
In the thread Python Graphics in LyX it was shown nicely how other
programming languages can be used to include grahics generated by these
into a LyX Document. That made me thinking: How can I do the same for
text files generated by these external code blocks?
Obviously, this depends on the format of the text (ascii, LaTeX,
others?). What would be the workflow? Does the text has to be in a file
(I assume) or could it be redirected directly into LyX?
Somehow I have the feeling I am missing something trivial here...
Cheers,
Rainer
Indeed! It can be produced as well, just define a python normal text file
format type (as pytxt) and in the converter just add from the pytxt format to
simple text format as python $$i $$o
in the python script you have to output everything to a text file using the
lines
import sys
outputfile = open(sys.argv[1])
outputfile.write('testing')
outputfile.close
Voilá! it works with text too
Moreover in the converter you can define a csv output format and python handles
well with csv, so I give you the rod, now fish something ;)
Cheers, Alex
Re: Inserting text (instead of graphics) from code into LyX?
Better than ever I've found that the pandas package in python handles with excel files and produces tables in csv too, so it can be used to read excel files as input, process a little and output csv tables which can be read by LyX as external documents (child) The panorama becomes interesting! Alex
Re: Inserting text (instead of graphics) from code into LyX?
- Original Message - From: Rainer M Krug Sent: Tuesday, June 10, 2014 9:09 AM OK - spreadsheets work via the external documents. But have you found a way of including normal txt files as verbatim? One could always use good old ert (e.g. http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=verbfile) But this would not provide preview. Rainer No, no preview in the case of text I fear. It should be implemented in the LyX code. Developers should handle this kind of things, if they already support image preview, why not supporting external material preview as well? They should answer this. TAIK! Cheers Alex

Hi
In the thread Python Graphics in LyX it was shown nicely how other
programming languages can be used to include grahics generated by these
into a LyX Document. That made me thinking: How can I do the same for
text files generated by these external code blocks?
Obviously, this depends on the format of the text (ascii, LaTeX,
others?). What would be the workflow? Does the text has to be in a file
(I assume) or could it be redirected directly into LyX?
Somehow I have the feeling I am missing something trivial here...
Cheers,
Rainer
Indeed! It can be produced as well, just define a python normal text file
format type (as pytxt) and in the converter just add from the pytxt format to
simple text format as python $$i $$o
in the python script you have to output everything to a text file using the
lines
import sys
outputfile = open(sys.argv[1])
outputfile.write('testing')
outputfile.close
Voilá! it works with text too
Moreover in the converter you can define a csv output format and python handles
well with csv, so I give you the rod, now fish something ;)
Cheers, Alex
Re: Inserting text (instead of graphics) from code into LyX?
Better than ever I've found that the pandas package in python handles with excel files and produces tables in csv too, so it can be used to read excel files as input, process a little and output csv tables which can be read by LyX as external documents (child) The panorama becomes interesting! Alex

Hello Lyxers I wonder why LyX is not available to process little pieces of python code within its own framework, like ipython notebook for instance?? This feature allows us to have beautiful graphics such the one produced by matplotlib package. I know there already exists a similar binding for R through knitr module, so why not a binding for python too??

Re: We need ePub/Mobi conversion: was: Book Frontmatter
myself to devote any efforts to support eLyXer, not even a few hours to solve reported issues with the latest formats. I am just not interested. My lack of long-term support for eLyXer has thus become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Anyway, I would suggest anyone who is working on any portion of a LyX to ePub conversion talk with me. I'm pretty knowledgeable about ePub, and I've already identified a lot of the dead ends and blind alleys in ePub creation, and I know what parts of the LyX document should go into the ePub, and which parts would be better re-done as either config or CSS. If you are already conversant in Python, know ePub and are willing to do the pretty boring task of translating between LyX and ePub, then you can take eLyXer as the starting point to do the job. It can probably be done in a few days: - one to understand eLyXer internals, - one to solve any stupid design errors that I may have made that make ePub support hard, such as configure it to use a different base.cfg file, - and one or two to recode all commands to output ePub. I would encourage you to take eLyXer and run from there, but the high probability that you will find strong opposition to integrate the resulting converter into eLyXer will probably mean that your effort will mostly be useful for you. So, my advice would be to keep away from it. If you are still interested I can of course give you any support you need with the source code. My switch to Bluefish isn't cast in concrete: Once LyX contains a good, generic, reliable LyX to ePub or even LyX to ePub friendly Xhtml conversion, I can switch back. If you do it soon enough, I won't even have to write an Xhtml to LaTeX converter :-) Again, good luck, whatever course you choose. Alex.

Re: LyX + CAS
Unfortunately the two CAS able to interact with LyX in Win7 are paid. Maybe there is also a workaround for Maxima, which would help the freeware and open source cause :) AFAIK, LyX is open source software, also Octave is open source, so why not supporting Octave as the standard CAS for LyX. The QtOctave works very good on Windows and it has a lot of compatibility with MatLab with a lot of plugins and interactions with Qt. I don´t think supporting a paid software is a good idea because we will be away of the GPL License. Just my 2c Alex

Re: Pasting graphics in LyX 2.1 beta on Mac
- Original Message - I noticed when I had to paste some graphics with a lot of text that LyX (or rather the libraries used by LyX) seem to reduce the resolution of the pasted graphics (copied selection from Preview and pasted as a png-file in LyX). Anyone else experienced it, or could it be a setting somewhere in my environment? If so, does anyone have an idea of how to solve it (save the cropped file as a png in Preview of course works, but is several additional steps). All the best! Anders The best you can do in these cases is save the graphic in svg format whenever posible. Otherwise you must edit your graphic on inkscape to add the text manually and then export it as svg. If you doesn´t go into vectorial graphics you will definetively lose resolution and then the text will look awful. regards! Alex
