That's strange. Do you have some customized layout in your personal LyX
dir?

No, I have no local layouts. For this I made a test page in Lyx without 
anything.

Does not matter, I don't need it at the moment. I shall install a fresh LyX on 
another computer, try there and let you know.

An easier solution (though not "automatic") is to use Insert > Short

Re: suppression of footnotes in TOC

2018-01-04 Thread Ekkehart Schlicht

  
  
Dear Richard, dear all,
I found out that Lyx uses \protect\footnote{...}.
With the normal \footnote{ } the problem does not occur.
\protect\footnote{  } is not recommended precisely for the
reason I mentioned, see
  
http://www.tex.ac.uk/FAQ-ftnsect.html
Instead, footmisc can be
used (which I often use anyway). It will work with \usepackage[stable]{footmisc}
  

Thus it seems easy to mend the problem in LyX by
simply redefining what the footnote inset does, i.e. omitting
\stable, and adding \usepackage[stable]{footmisc} either in the
preamble or in Lyx itself.

The only way I ever found is to define a new "footnote"
  command and use it on the heading instead of the normal
  one. See here:



https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/123762


Basically you add to the Preamble 




  \makeatletter
  \def\myfnt{\ifx\protect\@typeset@protect\expandafter\footnote\else\expandafter\@gobble\fi}
  \makeatother
  

  and then to insert the "footnote" on the heading you use a TeX box (Ctrl-L) with the command
  

  \myfnt{the heading footnote}
  

  on it. The numbering integrates without problems with normal footnotes, only on LyX it will look kind of weird. But you can always define a character style ;)

  Dear Ricardo,
  thanks a lot! This works much better than my
  previous "solution". My suggestion would be to build it right
  away into the LyX footnote command for chapters, sections, and
  subsections.
  Unfortunately \renewcommand{\footnote}{\myfnt}
  does not work, as \myfnt calls \footnote. 

  There is also the problem that the myfnt
  appears in the PDF bookmarks and has to be corrected by hand.
  Thanks again

2007-03-15 Thread Ekkehart Schlicht
Thanks a lot, Paul. The issue does not relate to previews etc. I have 
digged myself.


The issue relates to the LyX-MikTeX interaction and warrants some 
changes in LyX, I think.


If I embed Fig1.pdf and export to pdflatex, Lyx generates


\includegraphics[width=0.8\columnwidth,keepaspectratio]{Fig1}

If I compile this, a new file Fig1.png is generated. This is the 
pixeled version which is used for the output.


If I change the above line in the pdflatex file to

\includegraphics[width=0.8\columnwidth,keepaspectratio]{Fig1.pdf}

the output is o.k.

Maybe it would be good not to truncate picture names in LyX. (In earlier 
version there was the issue, for instance, that LyX selected Fig1.eps 
even if Fig1.pdf was selected in the manuscript. This is a disturbing 
feature.)

I don't know if this relates to your problem, but not too long ago 
someone else on the list was trying to embed a vector graphic and

plotting program he used to generate the graphic (can't remember which

thank you for suggesting to subdivide the manuscript. (It grows longer

disadvantage of the long manuscript is that pdflatex takes a while. 
Will this be shortened by subdividing the manuscript?

If you pdflatex from the main document no.


Can I restrict output to just the chapter I am working at?

Yes.

And what about cross references to other chapters. I understand that 
this can be done, but will the time pdflatex takes be kept down?

There's no difference AFAIK. You just have to open the main document
first and load the child document from there (clicking on the button
input)



I ask this because you seem to be quite experienced with all this. If 
you simply give me a green light I shall try. I simply want to avoid 
spending too much time in an attempt that ultimately yields no 
benefits for me.

Go ahead :-)


By the way, scrolling with the sidebar is much smoother in 137, as 
compared to 141 (without natbib) even if this is no performance test. 
I like it better. Why has it been changed?

I think the painting routines had been rewritten so it would take
sometime before it is as optimized as 1.3.7


I would appreciate if you could advise me either  go ahead with

Using truetype fonts - update

I have updated the instructions

to cope with a bug in the MTFI utility. The procedure described there 
should now produce outline fonts (Type 1) in PDF documents if 
View->pdflatex is used. (MTFI by itself produces only Type 3 bitmap

Using truetype fonts

Hi!

Is it possible to set a truetype font that will be used for a
'paragraph class' or whatever it's called, for example Standard,
Chapter* or Title?

How to reduce the size of italics in mathpazo?

2005-08-02 Thread Ekkehart Schlicht

Moton Hogholm suggested the solution which works just fine:

For the osf option,  use the praeamble

\usepackage[osf]{mathpazo}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\normalfont
\DeclareFontShape{T1}{pplj}{m}{it}{- s * [.97] pplri9d}{}
\DeclareFontShape{T1}{pplj}{b}{it}{- s * [.97] pplbi9d}{}

For the sc option just use `pplx' instead of `pplj' and filenames pplri9d  
and pplbi9d.


The scaling factor (.97) in the example above can be adjusted appropriately.

On my system, selecting

This requires that your Latex system has the IEEEtran document class.
If you don't have it, install it and run Edit-Reconfigure.

Problems with BibTex and LyX

Hi,
the easiest way may be to find a journal in your field with
a reference style you like and download the style file from
the instructions for authors. American Economic Review
has the style file aer.bst, for instance, or the Journal of
Institutional and Theoretical Economics has the style file
jite.bst. The authordate style files (to be found on the net)
are also useful.

Piet van Ostrum has solved the problem. It is

He suggests the following correction:
In babel.def replace the three occurrences of

\protect\bbl(at)restore(at)actives

The problem disappears if I omit the option
pagebackref=true in the hyperref praeamble.
With the option, the error message occurs, but
a pdf is produced in the lyx\temp folder. It can be
viewed by defining the new format (Edit-
Preferences-File Formats-New) with

Format:pdf4
GUI name:  PDF (view)
Extension: pdf
Viewer:pdfviewer

and definining the new viewer by placing a file named
pdfviewer.cmd containing

kill -c AdobeAcrobat
del viewer.pdf
copy %~dpn1.pdf %~dp1\viewer.pdf
START /max AcroRd32.exe %~dp1\viewer.pdf
exit

into the lyx\bin directory.

The first line in pdfviewer.cmd uses
the kill utility from

http://21st-century.net/Pub/WINNT/Utilities/kill.zip

to kill any existing Acrobat window.
It can be omitted, but in this case
all Acrobat windows must be closed manually
before invoking the lyx command

buffer-view pdf4

from the mini-buffer or from the toolbar
(if placed on the toolbar by adding

Icon buffer-view pdf4

under the toolbar heading in the .ui file).

I hope that this is acceptable.

It would be good if someone takes charge and notifies
the list in order to avoid that two persons work on this.
I cannot do this at the moment.

Uwe suggested this to me when I put some new stuff on the
LayXWin Wiki page. He sees the Windows page as concerned
with essentials, and I agree. So I took some of my suggestions
to another page

Uwe will transfer other inessential items to this page.

PDF viewing in full-page mode

2005-05-17 Thread Ekkehart Schlicht
Hi,
this is just to notify that I have added a small section to the WiKi 
LyXWin page

http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/WindowsSetup
that describes how to modify the PDF viewer such that the PDF (pdflatex)
viewing command opens the PDF in full-page view together with bookmarks
of the sections. This is rather trival but may be useful to 
inexperienced users
like me.
