Rechtschreibprüfung aspell-ispell
Hallo zusammen, ich schreibe einfach mal deutsch, weil ich nicht so fit in Englisch bin. System: LyX 1.3.7 auf Win XP SP2, LyX unter c:/programme, Aspell direkt unter c: Ich arbeite mich gerade neu in LyX ein. Habe LyX und damit auch Aspell mit dem Windows-Installer installiert. Im Fenster Bearbeiten/Einstellungen/Spracheinstellungen/Rechtschreibprüfung ist als Programm zur Rechtschreibprüfung oben "ispell" angegeben. Das Feld ist grau, also inaktiv. Frage: wie aktiviere ich denn nun Aspell? -- Viele Grüße aus Hannover Matthias Schmidt mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Virus checked by G DATA AntiVirusKit ___ Telefonate ohne weitere Kosten vom PC zum PC: http://messenger.yahoo.de
Zitat-Stil ändern
Wie kann ich den Zitat-Stil ändern? Die Verweise auf das Literaturverzeichnis stehen in der Fußnote. Nach der Lyx-Vorgabe bestehen sie aus der Nummer der Literatur im Literaturverzeichnis in eckigen Klammern: [12]. Ich möchte dort aber den Autor mit Jahreszahl stehen haben. Z.B. "Oswald1953" oder "Oswald 1953" .

Lyxpipe?
Hallo zusammen, ich arbeite mich zur Zeit in Lyx auf Windwos XP ein. Diese Frage konnte ich auch über google etc. nicht für mich erklären: was ist die Lyx-pipe? Die wird gelegentlich erwähnt aber nirgends so richtig erklärt: Gibts das auch in Windows (hab ich) oder nur in Linux? Im Bibtex-Programm JabRef nämlich ist als Pfad zu einem externen Programm Lyx-pipe angegeben, doch die finde ich auf meinem Rechner nicht. Vielleicht hängt damit ja zusammen, dass in Lyx die Autorennamen nicht gefunden werden, wenn ich Zitate einfüge? Stil des Literaturverzeichnisses "natbib" mit angabe von Autor und Jahr. Zitatangabe im Text: "(author?) [1, S. 223]" Literaturangabe im Literaturverzeichnis: "[2] Oswald Gerhard. Eckenhagen und Denklingen ... Selbstverlag, Eckenhagen, 1953." -- Mit freundlichen Grüssen Matthias Schmidt mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Virus checked by G DATA AntiVirusKit ___ Telefonate ohne weitere Kosten vom PC zum PC: http://messenger.yahoo.de
citation reference is wrong
Hallo, I`m working with WinXP, Lyx 1.3.7 and JabRef 2.0.1. The citation reference is positioned in the footnote. The bibliography for the document is formatted as natbib and author-year. So far so good: in the Lyx user interface the result is given correct as in this case "Gerhard (1953)". So: Lyx can find the name of the author. But in the dvi-preview and in the pdf-print is the citation reference printed as "(author ?)[2]" Here the name of the author cannot be found. It should be something with autor and year. What has happened there? What's wrong? -- Mit freundlichen Grüssen Matthias Schmidt mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Virus checked by G DATA AntiVirusKit ___ Telefonate ohne weitere Kosten vom PC zum PC: http://messenger.yahoo.de

If you export the document as LaTeX and run latex three or four times against it, does the DVI eventually come out correctly? Herbert answered: I suppose, that you enabled the bibliography not from within LyX. If so, then you have to run bibtex by yourself, which is not the best choice ... use LyX for with insert->bibliography. well, I checked it: latex is running 3 times, and the bibliography is inserted within Lyx. So, the problem continues to exist!

Re: Portable LyX & PortableApps
I gave this request to the PortableApps Forum "Request Apps" yesterday (http://portableapps.com/node/27981) : LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based on the structure of your documents (WYSIWYM) and not simply their appearance (WYSIWYG): http://www.lyx.org. Some years befor there has been topics about a portable LyX in PortableApps. But they didn't induce a portable Lyx. On http://code.google.com/p/lytex/ there has been a portable Lyx für a while. It worked well, but it is abandoned now. LyX had a a great leap forward now with the version 2.0, that was published this month. I suggest to create a portable Lyx: Lyx needs for running some other programs (see http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinInstaller). I myself never made a portable app before.

error message with figure wrap float
Hello! After I inserted a figure wrap float in my document I got an error message. When I insert an "normal" float figure, I don't get this error message. What do I have to do? The message is: {\begin {wrapfigure}{o}{0.5\columnwidth }\includegraphics [width=0.5\textwidth \ETC. ! Paragraph ended before \text@command was complete. \par l.3084 } I suspect you've forgotten a `}', causing me to apply this control sequence to too much text. How can we recover?
