left bracket only

2003-09-09 Thread Alex Olivas
whenever i try $\left{...$ for example lyx (1.3.2) automatically displays the corresponding right bracket. is there anyway to suppress the right bracket? i only want the left displayed. the latex equivalent would be something like... $\left\{ ... \right.$ thanks, alex.

ah ha! those empty buttons on the lower right of the delimiters math panel actually do something. thanks, alex. Herbert Voß wrote: Alex Olivas schrieb: whenever i try $\left{...$ for example lyx (1.3.2) automatically displays the corresponding right bracket. is there anyway to suppress

lyx errors and floats!?

2003-09-02 Thread Alex Olivas
i'm getting a lot of strange errors when i try to insert a figure, algorithm, or table float and view the dvi. the first error reads...(s**t i can't copy and paste from the LaTex Error box)... oh well...something like... Latex Error:Float(s) lost. \end{document} i don' t get this error

Re: lyx errors and floats!?

2003-09-02 Thread Alex Olivas
so it looks like i found the problem. it turns out i was abusing the here if possible option on floats. if i use here definitely, which i really don't want to do, it compiles. could someone explain the difference between these two options and why i had problems compiling? thanks, alex. Alex

latex preview oddity

2003-08-20 Thread Alex Olivas
i've recently installed the latex-preview and i get previews for any math that i now type that didn't exist before. for example if i had $x=1$ somewhere in the document and retyped it in a different place i get no preview. no error either. lyx just doesn't bother trying to generate a preview.

i'm using 1.3.2 with redhat 7.2. in the link below that line is in the preamble. all i did was open your attachment in lyx and export to postscript. since this works for you i'm wondering if maybe we're using different versions of ghostscript. i'm using gv 3.5.8 and ps 7.00. thanks, alex.
