RE: lyx 2 and sweave

[Steve Sidney]

Thanks for your rsponse 

But if one never runs RTools, how does it do this.

In the instructions, it seems as if RTools does not get run; or am I missing
something.

Also when I downloaded RTools it seems as if this is a tools to re-compile
the source code, since a full download also inlcludes a compiler etc.
Furthermore, it also seems as if RTools implements Cygwin.

All in all very confusing

Really appreciate you taking the trouble to try and help

Regards
Steve

As far as I know, RTools simply (among other things) properly sets up R in
the Windows environment so that LaTeX and LyX can communicate with R. At
this step, you shouldn't be doing much more. Are you sure you have
reconfigured LyX?

RE: lyx 2 and sweave

[Steve Sidney]

Dear Murat
 
Thanks v much.
 
You will see that Liviu responded and I have tried to ask the questions re
RTools a little differently.
 
But, tnaks for trying. My problem definitely revolves around the fact that
as soon as try and include the 'Sweave' module is says that it's not
installed and my ver of Latex (Miktex) can't see it. I don't really know
what's package is missing from MikTex.
 
I am sure that Rob's instructions are fine it's just that as a 'newbie'
there seems to be some detail missing and for instance I don't know if I
must install the whole RTools (200mB) or not and then I can't see where it
gets run.
 
Anyway, thanks for trying - maybe I just go to Linux for the this, since
there seems as though there has always been less problems with Sweave in
that environment.

Steve

Dear Steve, 

I have just tried to make more explicit the instructions given by Rob.
Unfortunately, I do not use Windows anymore and cannot directly test them.
As far as I do remember, establishing the connection with Sweave was rather
complex under Windows with the previous versions of Lyx, but it is supposed
to be much simpler with Lyx 2. For example, under OSX, the connection was
just out-of-the-box for me, after having included the module. For Windows, I
do not remember if I had to install RTools, but, anyway, this was before Lyx
2. In your place, I would just follow Rob's instructions, I am pretty
confident that if he has published them, they must work.

Sorry for not being more helpful. I was hoping that other WIndows users who
remember their setup for Lyx2-Sweave connection would ring the bell here.

Dear Steve,




If I try to make a little bit more explicit these instructions by Rob:


Here’s the process:

1.  Install LyX.  Use alpha6 (available from the LyX website), it’s the
most stable. 

2.  Install R.  Available from its project’s website. 

3.  Install the appropriate RTools
http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/index.html  for your version of
R. 

4.  Copy Sweave.sty from share/texmf in the R installation directory to
some place in your LaTeX path. 

5.  Rebuild your LaTeX database.  Reconfigure LyX.


1. You just install the most recent version of Lyx.

2. and 3. Check your version of R. Launch R and check the About box. Use
this information to download the correct RTools version from the wab page
indicated by Rob.

4. R is normally installed in Program Files\R-project if I remember well.
Locate the subfolder share under the folder of R-project (using the file
manager of WIndows), and then the folder subfolder texmf that should be in
the share folder. Copy this folder in your Miktex tree. MikTex should
normally be installed in Proram Files\Miktex and must contain a sunfolder
texmf that again contains a subfolder latex. Put the the content of the
share\texmf folder in a subfolder of this latex folder (you can create a new
folder called sweave for example and copy the files in this new folder).

5. You have two choices here: The user-friendly one is to locate the MikTex
manager program from your Programs/Miktex menu and refresh the Latex file
index from here (one of the tabs must be about such a functionality). The
more direct one uses the Command line window (You should be able to open one
from Start/Programs/Accessories/Command... In this window just execute the
following command: mktexlsr (type mktexlsr and push the Return key). This
will read some folders and update their indexes for allowing to Latex
compiler to find the corresponding files.
Then Launch Lyx and Execute Reconfigure (please look in the menus, I do not
remember under which menu this function appears in the Window version).

I have written the paths to the relevant folders from memory, and I am not
sure to remember well since I do not use Windows anymore. I also translate
from French Windows. But if you look for the meaning of what I indicate, you
should find your way.
Sorry for not being more precise, but I hope that this can help you in the
waiting of more

You should only need to install RTools, this way properly configuring your
Win environment for LyX to R communications, but not run it at any point

It was some time ago, but as far as I remember immediately after installing
RTools (and after having already registered Sweave.sty with
LaTeX) I could to easily compile LyX Sweave documents. To echo Murat, on
Linux and Mac it's all much more straightforward, since simply installing

That might be one of the things that allows for the LyX Sweave integration.
It might be better for you to tell us what exactly doesn't work on your

RE: lyx 2 and sweave

[Steve Sidney]

Dear Murat
 
I sent this last week but see now that it went to your University email -
apologies. I am sending this again in case you did not receive it.
 
I have also copied the list
 
I have tried following your instructions - thanks for sending them but I
still can't get it to work.
 
How does RTools get invoked;  I see that it is a very large installation
(200Mb) with compiler etc but I can't see where it get used in either Rob's
or your description.
 
Once again thanks for all your help it is much appreciated.
 
Regards
Steve

Dear Steve,




If I try to make a little bit more explicit these instructions by Rob:


Here’s the process:

1.  Install LyX.  Use alpha6 (available from the LyX website), it’s the
most stable. 

2.  Install R.  Available from its project’s website. 

3.  Install the appropriate RTools
http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/index.html  for your version of
R. 

4.  Copy Sweave.sty from share/texmf in the R installation directory to
some place in your LaTeX path. 

5.  Rebuild your LaTeX database.  Reconfigure LyX.


1. You just install the most recent version of Lyx.

2. and 3. Check your version of R. Launch R and check the About box. Use
this information to download the correct RTools version from the wab page
indicated by Rob.

4. R is normally installed in Program Files\R-project if I remember well.
Locate the subfolder share under the folder of R-project (using the file
manager of WIndows), and then the folder subfolder texmf that should be in
the share folder. Copy this folder in your Miktex tree. MikTex should
normally be installed in Proram Files\Miktex and must contain a sunfolder
texmf that again contains a subfolder latex. Put the the content of the
share\texmf folder in a subfolder of this latex folder (you can create a new
folder called sweave for example and copy the files in this new folder).

5. You have two choices here: The user-friendly one is to locate the MikTex
manager program from your Programs/Miktex menu and refresh the Latex file
index from here (one of the tabs must be about such a functionality). The
more direct one uses the Command line window (You should be able to open one
from Start/Programs/Accessories/Command... In this window just execute the
following command: mktexlsr (type mktexlsr and push the Return key). This
will read some folders and update their indexes for allowing to Latex
compiler to find the corresponding files.
Then Launch Lyx and Execute Reconfigure (please look in the menus, I do not
remember under which menu this function appears in the Window version).

I have written the paths to the relevant folders from memory, and I am not
sure to remember well since I do not use Windows anymore. I also translate
from French Windows. But if you look for the meaning of what I indicate, you
should find your way.
Sorry for not being more precise, but I hope that this can help you in the
waiting of more precise indications from an current Windows user.

Re: Table Challenge

[Steve Sidney]

Hi Rob and list

After posting the same message on the Latex Community forum I was informed 
of a relatively new tool called datatool which appears to solve the problem.


Unofrtunately I can't seem to get this package to work in Lyx.


Has anybody had any experience with datatool and Lyx

Any help would really be appreciated

Hi Steve,

Yes, you can automatically insert page breaks into a long table.  This is
done through the use of the longtable package.  There is a good overview 
on

how to use longtable in the LyX user manual.  Longtable has a few nice
features, such as the ability to automatically add a  header to the table 
on

every page.

I am not, aware of a way to automatically split a given table into two
sections, however.  Perhaps others on the list might be able to provide
additional recommendations?

Cheers,

Dear list

As very much a Lyx/Latex newbie, I hope that this is not too difficult a
problem to be resolved.

I produce a multi-col table of data in R and at the moment I reconfigure 
the

table in Excel so that I can copy/paste it into a report in Word.

I have managed to get the Sweave/Lyx link in MS Windows working but my
problem is the follows.

From the R code the table looks like this - up to 80 rows or more and 5 
col

Since this does not fit on a single A4 page (portrait), I then manually
split the table in half and it looks like this

Re: Table Challenge

[Steve Sidney]

Hi Rob and list

After posting the same message on the Latex Community forum I was informed 
of a relatively new tool called datatool which appears to solve the problem.


Unofrtunately I can't seem to get this package to work in Lyx.


Has anybody had any experience with datatool and Lyx

Any help would really be appreciated

Regards
Steve

Hi Steve,

Yes, you can automatically insert page breaks into a long table.  This is
done through the use of the longtable package.  There is a good overview 
on

how to use longtable in the LyX user manual.  Longtable has a few nice
features, such as the ability to automatically add a  header to the table 
on

every page.

I am not, aware of a way to automatically split a given table into two
sections, however.  Perhaps others on the list might be able to provide
additional recommendations?

Cheers,

Rob Oakes

Dear list

As very much a Lyx/Latex newbie, I hope that this is not too difficult a
problem to be resolved.

I produce a multi-col table of data in R and at the moment I reconfigure 
the

table in Excel so that I can copy/paste it into a report in Word.

I have managed to get the Sweave/Lyx link in MS Windows working but my
problem is the follows.

From the R code the table looks like this - up to 80 rows or more and 5 
col


lab_id A B ZBW ZWI

Since this does not fit on a single A4 page (portrait), I then manually
split the table in half and it looks like this

Re: Table Challenge

[Steve Sidney]

Rob

Thanks. Although I haven't used the longtable package, I am aware of its 
exsistence.


My report is already some 30 odd pages and if I allow each table to take 2 
pages it will make it even more bulky.


There seems to be two alternatives.
1) Carry on preparing the table by hand as I currently do and then importing 
it directly into Lyx.

2) Attempt to create the table in R.

Do you think it's worth the effort to do this in R.

Steve

Liviu

Thanks for the response and the interest

I currently do it manually but copy/paste from Excel into Word. I use R to 
do the analysis and then write a csv file which I manipulate in Excel and 
paste into Word


I am aware of long tables and xtable but that does not solve the problem of 
splitting the number of rows in half and placing them side by side on one 
page

 My question is there way a that Lyx/Latex can do this without my manual
 intervention.


Again, how do you manually split  it? Copy  paste or by manipulating
the R object? The later might be an acceptable solution.

Thanks. Although I haven't used the longtable package, I am aware of its 
exsistence.


My report is already some 30 odd pages and if I allow each table to take 2 
pages it will make it even more bulky.


There seems to be two alternatives.
1) Carry on preparing the table by hand as I currently do and then importing 
it directly into Lyx.

2) Attempt to create the table in R.

Do you think it's worth the effort to do this in R.

Steve

Hi Steve,

Yes, you can automatically insert page breaks into a long table.  This is
done through the use of the longtable package.  There is a good overview 
on

how to use longtable in the LyX user manual.  Longtable has a few nice
features, such as the ability to automatically add a  header to the table 
on

every page.

I am not, aware of a way to automatically split a given table into two
sections, however.  Perhaps others on the list might be able to provide
additional recommendations?

Cheers,

Rob Oakes

Dear list

As very much a Lyx/Latex newbie, I hope that this is not too difficult a
problem to be resolved.

I produce a multi-col table of data in R and at the moment I reconfigure 
the

table in Excel so that I can copy/paste it into a report in Word.

I have managed to get the Sweave/Lyx link in MS Windows working but my
problem is the follows.

From the R code the table looks like this - up to 80 rows or more and 5 
col


lab_id A B ZBW ZWI
4er66 3.60 3.30 3.26 6.49
4gcyi 2.96 2.91 0.47 1.10
5d3hh 3.08 3.11 1.34 -0.88
5d3wt 1.79 1.85 -5.60 -1.56
5ycya # # N/A N/A

Middle rows removed to save space

t9455 3.00 2.97 0.74 0.67

v44h6 2.72 2.73 -0.66 -0.29
wa5hh # # N/A N/A

Since this does not fit on a single A4 page (portrait), I then manually
split the table in half and it looks like this

lab_id A B ZBW ZWI lab_id A B ZBW

My question is there way a that Lyx/Latex can do this without my manual
intervention.

I hope that the post is clear enough, but if there are any questions 
please

shout

Steve

Re: Table Challenge

[Steve Sidney]

Liviu

Thanks for the response and the interest

I currently do it manually but copy/paste from Excel into Word. I use R to 
do the analysis and then write a csv file which I manipulate in Excel and 
paste into Word


I am aware of long tables and xtable but that does not solve the problem of 
splitting the number of rows in half and placing them side by side on one 
page


Also see my response to Rob

Regards
Steve

In the original post it wasn't clear whether you were transferring the
results to LyX manually (copy & paste) or via Sweave (using xtable()
or latex() commands). In case of the latter, the two commands allow to
convert R objects into LaTeX long-tables. As Rob already mentioned,
these tables would automatically break at the end of the page.
