Anyone managed to get this working with 1.3.6-1 for Windows

I have followed the install instruction and also the instructions for 
activation from within Lyx which are provided on the wiki and I keep getting an 
error saying

Cannot convert file

Error while executing
tex2lyx.cmd filename.tex filename.lyx

Any ideas?

Error while executing

Run it from a console, the popup is not enough informative.

I don't think the cmd workaround is needed anymore if you patch the *.py 
files

of the lyx-1.4 distribution in C:/Program Files/LyX/resources/lyx2lyx:
lyx-1.3.6 will be able to read the converted files. I edited the tex2lyx 
wiki page in that line.

However tex2lyx needs the other LyX-1.4 files, so copying tex2lyx in 
C:/Program Files/LyX/bin remains
hazardous (it worked for me on some layouts, but this is not a general 
rule).

So editing the PATH variable remains necessary.
Then a MinGW console is your friend :-)

Ok I have run it from the command window. I am still using the command file 
work around, firstly because I think it is a far more friendly way of doing 
things but it appears that this is where the problem is.

I get the message

c:\folder\@
'\s@' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program 
or batch file.

where the \ is in fact a small square (like the sort you get when word cant 
find a font). @ is the first line of the tex2lyx.cmd file. If I change the 
first character so the error message changes.

If I do not use the script, can I still use tex2lyx from within lyx or do  I 
have to go back to the command line.

Ok I had saved the cmd file as unicode and lyx couldnt read it.

So it seems the cmd way of doing things still works.

THanks for the suggestions and sorry that as usual pilot error was the 
cause!

Re: figure* in LyX?

2005-07-25 Thread Geoffrey Lloyd

If you right click the float box a load of options appear - one of which is 
Span Columns.


Check this box and all should be ok.

BTW in many cases the float will appear on the page following its position 
so if you want it to span two columns on page 2 make sure you place it 
somewhere on page 1.

For those who use another language than english the command to change the

\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
\addto\captionsngerman{\renewcommand{\figurename}{FIG.}}

To format captions use the LaTeX-package "caption". The package option to 
change the label separator is:

\usepackage[labelsep=period]{caption}

I am using the document class book with page style fancy.
However, footnotes on Chapter pages don't appear when viewed.
My LaTeX book suggests that maybe I should use \pagestyle{fancyplain} 
which I

tried putting in the preamble but this didn't work.
I imagine there's a simple solution but I can't find it.

What you need to use is

\fancypagestyle{plain}{
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}
\lhead{}
\chead{}
\rhead{}
\lfoot{}
\cfoot{}
\rfoot{}
}

The first line defines a new style for {plain} which all chapter title pages 
use by default. The second removes the line under the header.

THe remaining commands are not necessary but allow you the flexibility to 
add bits like page numbers etc if you don't want the page totally plain.

Hope this helps - it works for me.

I am not sure I agree with this (except the part about window position and

As for installation time, well granted you have to install Python  and

have any additional install components and they both install rapidly. They 
also mean you don't have to faff about getting new versions of sed.exe,

I would say efficiency wise the new version is far superior, but then I am

doesn't work. References can be chosen from other open documents but the 
bibtex

entry in the master document isn't recognized.

The suggestion I got in the other email to put the bibtex entry into a 
comment

paragraph works great though.

1.3.6 for Win

2005-07-19 Thread Geoffrey Lloyd

Hi 

I am about to install Lyx 1.3.6 on WinXP box.  I just wondered what, with the 
exception of reLyx, the Perl package was required for. I am going to use 
tex2lyx and so won't need to install Perl if it is not used by any other part 
of the Lyx package.

If anyone knows the answer I would be most appreciative.

Toolbar in 1.3.6

2005-07-19 Thread Geoffrey Lloyd




Hi

Yes another question, sorry.

I have been using 1.3.5 for sometime and have 
become very use to the toolbar that I am using. It is a corruption of the 
'Alternative Toolbar' provided here

http://www.semverteilung.vwl.uni-muenchen.de/mitarbeiter/es/software/ToolbarES.htm

However when I use it with 1.3.6 some f the icons 
are not recognised and become ? and another is just totally different. 


I have attached the .ui file. Does any one know why 
this is happening?

Ultimately it doesn't matter for me because I know 
where all the buttons are and what they do so don't need icons per se but I am 
trying to encourage others to use Lyx and so it would be helpful if my version 
looked complete.

work if you place tex2lyx.exe in C:\Program Files\Lyx-1.3.6\bin ?

Not tried, I added C:\Program Files\LyX-1.4/LyX/bin to the path and tried

You mean, just copy tex2lyx.exe in C:\Program Files\Lyx-1.3.6\bin,

In that case, you will able to ship it with the installer I guess,
with the lyxrc.defaults tuned to use it.

If that really is the case then that would be fantastic as it is clearly 
superior to relyx.

If you find it works can you let me know how to do it to save me downloading

Instant preview in 1.3.6 win

Hi

So far so good with the 1.3.6 install.

Anyone got Instant Preview to work on a Win system and know how to do it?

SOLVED -Instant preview

2005-07-19 Thread Geoffrey Lloyd

Ok it seems that on (my) WinXP box as well as Python you also need a set of 
Python extensions which can be found here. There are files to cover the latest 
Python releases.

https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=78018package_id=79063release_id=319716

Perhaps something should be added to state this additional step for Win 
Machines. It may be that it only affects Instant Preview but I don't know 
anything about Python or how it is used by Lyx.

Strange menu behaviour on resize

2005-07-19 Thread Geoffrey Lloyd

Hi

A strange thing happens whenever I minimise my Lyx window to the tool bar in 
Windows. When I bring it back up (regardless of whether it is full screen or 
user defined size) only the first 4 menu options are available (FIle, Edit, 
Insert, Layout).  When I run the mouse of the vacant space the other menu items 
appear. 

Very odd, wondered whether anyone else had this problem and although minor

LyX doesn't know anything about LaTeX .cls files. You need to make the
beamer.layout file available to LyX by copying it to

${USER_LYX_DIR}/layouts/beamer.layout

and reconfiguring LyX.

USER_LYX_DIR is presumably C:\Documents and Settings\Samar\Application
Data\lyx or something similar.

On my linux machine (runs teTeX), this file is to be found at
/usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/beamer/lyx/layouts/beamer.layout

It'll be somewhere equivalent under MiKTeX. If not, you can grab it from
the latex-beamer.sf.net viewcvs tree:


Out of curiosity really, but if lyx knows where miktex or equivalent is why 
doesn't it find these layout ifles automatically - or is this particular to 
beamer.

Then you can simply convert his revised tex file to lyx using relyx or

If he really needs to see the figures too send him a pdf and he can read

Lyx 1.3.6pre with 1.3.5

2005-07-10 Thread Geoffrey Lloyd

Hi

I have been happily using 1.3.5 and more recently 1.3.6pre with no major 
problems.  However I did notice some strange behaviour when installing 1.3.6pre.

After install I have 4 lyx icons on my desktop, the original one for 1.3.5 and 
3 new ones, which also point to 1.3.5.  I don't get a single one for 1.3.6pre.

This must be happening because I have 1.3.5 installed too but it is very odd. I 
can;t afford to remove 1.3.5 as I am writing a thesis and I can be sure it is 
stable.

Just thought I should share this odd behaviour.

tex2lyx and 1.3.6pre

2005-07-09 Thread Geoffrey Lloyd

Hi

I am aware that tex2lyx will be invoked as of 1.4.0 but wondered whether, as it 
is already stable and far more powerful than relyx, whether it might be added 
to the 1.3.6pre version. 

If not is there a reason for its exclusion.

1.3.6pre and 1.4 windows

2005-07-07 Thread Geoffrey Lloyd

A question to anyone that might know the answer. With the large amount of work 
going into Lyx 1.3.6 for Windows am I to assume the following

1) Lyx 1.4 release is a long way off

2) It won't be released for Windows, at least initially.

Any ideas?

HI all,
 Currently TOC does not include list of tables, figures and bibliography. 
How to include them in final output.


Use the package tocbibind

If you just use the defaults this also includes the ToC in the ToC so use 
the option notoc


\usepackage[notoc]{tocbibind}

Hope this works for you.  Further options can be found in the tocbibind 
package docs








Thanks

Ok before your ToC insert the following in ERT

\setcounter{secnumdepth}{0}

Then after your ToC have another ERT with

\setcounter{secnumdepth}{1}

This should only number the chapters in the TOC but still list the sections

both the chapters and the sections in your document.  You may need to play

multiple cross references using hyperref

I have several instances where I write 

'refering to equations 1.x and 1.y'. 

I am now using the \autoref part of hyperref and it prioduces nice out put but 
with multiple references like above I get 

'refering to equation 1.x and equation 1.y'

It is possible using this package to get the first output using \autoref.  It

Many thanks for all the useful comments yesterday about the hyperref package.

I now have it working. However it only links the number such that figure 1 has 
a link for the 1 not the whole 'figure 1'. Is there any way to link the whole 
thing?

Also the backref links from the bibliography only appear as a number of the 
page. I have read that the old backrefx package used to write (Cited on #). I 
can't seem to implement this even though it is apparently built into the new 
hyperref package.

Any ideas at all?

Subject: Re: One more BibTex question

Hi

Firstly the problem of putting The Danish Board of Techonology

I think maybe you are using the wrong refernce type.  If you use article 
and

put the Danish... as the author then yes you will get the abbreviation.
You could try using book and then putting The Danish... as publisher.
Have a play with the various types - it is very easy in JabRef.

As for the capitals, I think, certainly on my machine, that the titles
should be as typed so ensure you are putting them into JabRef with the
correct capital/non setup.

I have attached a pdf which shows my bibliography - Ref [37] is a book 
with
capitals in the title (VUV) and ref [35] is also a book showing where if 
you
had The Danish rather than Cambridge... you could sort that 
problem.

Hope all this is clear.

Re: Problems with .ps and .dvi output when .eps is embedded

2005-06-21 Thread Geoffrey Lloyd

I have not been following this thread but have just read the background 
stuff. I then downloaded the file which seems to actually be a .ps rather 
than .eps file but no matter.  Using ghostscript to convert to .eps I 
reproduce the same problems experienced.


But if I open the eps in Adibe Illustrator and then resave it the problems 
disappear.  Clearly somewhere the eps has got messed up.


I am not sure who needs the correct file but I have an eps of the original 
that works in lyx with dvi and postscript output.


Email me and I will send it - it is too big to attach to the mailing list.

[Apologies if this is a repeat.  The first time I sent it, I got a bounce 
message because I had attached a zip archive.]


Actually, I think it's a single page with 25 layers.  When I embed the
original graphic in a LyX doc and display the DVI, it looks smudged,
which I think is due to the layers being slightly offset from each
other.  I opened the graphic in Paint Shop Pro and isolated the first
layer.  It's not smudged, but it's faint and not very sharp.

Apparently either IODE or GnuPlot did something peculiar.  I can't tell
what the differences among the layers are, but no layer by itself is a
legible, complete image.  The legend at the top center of the image
appears in layers 1, 3, 9, 11, 17, 19 and 25 but not the others.
According to PSP, layers 2, 10 and 18 don't exist (or at least PSP opens
the others in separate windows but doesn't find those).

At any rate, the problem here is neither with LyX nor with LaTeX; the
image is munged.

Re: Overview of the NatBib styles - which is the right one for me?

2005-06-21 Thread Geoffrey Lloyd


Earlier you mentioned you wanted an apalike reference set up.

Select the NatBib package ffrom Layout-Document

Then select the apalike settings when you do Insert-ListsTOC-BibTex 
Reference

Subject: Overview of the NatBib styles - which is the right one for me?



I am using NatBib with author-year citation. On my PC I have the following
styles available for NatBiB:

/usr/share/texmf/bibtex/bst/natbib/abbrvnat.bst
/usr/share/texmf/bibtex/bst/natbib/plainnat.bst
/usr/share/texmf/bibtex/bst/natbib/unsrtnat.bst

as described in the NatBib documentation (which I have read):
http://www.linmpi.mpg.de/english/services/software/latex/localtex/doc/natbib.pdf

However, the manual describes the NatBiB compatible styles in relation to 
the

old ones they are replacing (plain, apalike etc). But since I do now have
experience with these style I am having difficulties choosing which is 
right

for me.

Can anyone point me to a place that can give me an overview of (the
differences between) the styles - and help me choosing which is right for 
me?

I guess I simply need something apalike. As said for sociale science.

Kind regards,
Janus

I see

Sorry my misunderstanding - you could always chose not to use the natbib 
style and just use apalike.bst

Did that already.

Reference

But as far as I understand the apalike.bst was not written with NatBiB in
mind, and using it with NatBib could cause problems. This is why I started
looking into abbrvnat.bst, plainnat.bst and unsrtnat.bst. But maybe I am
wrong here.
