Have you tried quiting the ERT in the middle, writing Hebrew and then 
opening another ERT? The only thing to note is the order of the two ERTs 
(in an RTL paragraph): The first one (e.g begin{... ) should be on  the 
right and the closing one (e.g. }) shuld be on the left. There might 
also be an issue with the languge you mark the ERTs to be (I think they 
need to be english).


Attached is an example of something I used once.

LyX supports Hebrew quite well. See:

I'm not sure about cantillation marks and punctuation marks, I never
used those.
As for greek, all I could find was this thread:

Re: Hebrew issues with captions

Hi,

My problem is, it works ONLY when the document contains no Hebrew 
characters whatsoever!! (Take a document in English - caption package 
works, insert a word of Hebrew, caption style returns to the default of 
the article class).


I attached a small file with a figure. If you erase the Hebrew word, the 
caption changes according to the definition in the preample.

I've tried the example file you gave, but it didn't work for me even 
after replacing the Hebrew word with an english one. I don't know the 
caption package and I could hardly find documentation for it. However, 
I saw that the package was replaced by the caption2 package (still 
beta, but said to be stable). With this package I had no problem with 
Hebrew (see attached).

Note that in this package the options are given slightly differently. 
The documentation for the package is section 19 of the epslatex 
documentation. (You should have a file  epslatex.ps on your system)

Re: Problem in trying to add Label in math mode which is in a box

Note - C stand for Control.
I added C - enter to be able to add a label for cross reference.
Have you tried to press M-i-l (M stands for Alt usually) while the 
cursor is in the equation? (You could also do it from the menu 
Insert-Label).

Notice that this will make sense only for a display formula, not an 
inline one (C-m). For a Display formula lyx will write the label to the 
right of the equation, and in the output a number will appear there.

Try and use a math-macro in lyx.

fancyhdr and hebrew (again)

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

I'm trying to use the fancyhdr package in a hebrew document, however I 
get a strange behavior: The left and right headers seem to switch places 
some times.(this is not because of odd/even numbered pages)

I could not find what triggers this switching. For example, in the 
attached file, this always happens on the last page, however I have a 
more complex file in which the headers switch and then switch back again.

Please note, that in the example file, I get hebrew giberish instead of

fancyhdr and hebrew (again)

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

I'm trying to use the fancyhdr package in a hebrew document, however I 
get a strange behavior: The left and right headers seem to switch places 
some times.(this is not because of odd/even numbered pages)

I could not find what triggers this switching. For example, in the 
attached file, this always happens on the last page, however I have a 
more complex file in which the headers switch and then switch back again.

Please note, that in the example file, I get hebrew giberish instead of 
the english text, when the headers are switched.

I also tried to define the headers in a right-to-left paragraph, but 
then I would get errors in the compilation.

Thanks for any help,

Amir.

Re: tilde does not show in equations

I use LyX 1.3.2 with the qt gui on RedHat 9.

I typed a paper and in the math equations I used the tilde from the

I was embarrassed/frustrated to learn during a presentation that the

The tilde does appear in output for regular text, just not in equations.
Since then, I have learned that there is a work around. 
As far as I know, ~ is a special character in  LaTeX. Lyx automaticaly 
substitutes ~ for the proper code that prints ~ in text mode, but not 
in math mode. If you want the symbol to appear in an equation you need 
to enter \sim or equivalently use the math panel.

The problem, in my opinion, is the wrong color of the symbol. It appears 
black in LyX's math mode, but should appear red (since it is latex 
code). I've sent a feature request about this (bug #590) some time ago.

Re: Frames around equations - finally

optional arguments in math. how to?

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

I've just been trying use the command \xrightarrow with it optional 
argument, e.g.

\[ leftside \xright[down]{up} rightside \]

Is it possible to do this (and in general use optional arguments in 
math/display mode)? I've tried writing it as regular text (without the 
\[ and \]) and turning it to a math/display mode. I've also tried to 
insert it manually in the .lyx file, but to no avail.

I did manage to use it in an ERT box, but I would rather not write the 
whole equation that way.

If it is indeed imposible, might it be better if there was an option 
within math mode to enter pure latex, without Lyx helping in the 
middle. Something like the ERT box in the regular text. I think  (if I 
remember correctly) that it was possible in earlier version 1.1.6 (or so).

Thanks for any help,

Amir.

P.S.

I'm using Lyx 1.2.1 (Xforms)

Re: optional arguments in math. how to?

[Amir Seginer]

Thanks for the quick answer


\xrightarrow is supported 'natively'.

Just make sure to enable AMS.
The problem is the optional argument, not just using \xrightarrow




If it is indeed imposible, might it be better if there was an option 
within math mode to enter pure latex, without Lyx helping in the 
middle.


Even that work.
No it doesn't (for me), the moment I press [ to start the optional 
argument I'm out of LaTeX mode and into LyX's math mode. I would like 
something in which LyX will not interfere (like in the  ERT box in 
plain text after pressing ctrl-L) - This should be used only for special 
cases. The use of \ to turn on math-mode is good (and much more 
convenient) for 99.99% of the cases.


I'm using Lyx 1.2.1 (Xforms)


Brr... I think it should work there, too, but I've not checked.
Especially the native xrightarrow support might be a 1.3.x feature.
Not the optional argument (just the text above the arrow).

Thanks again,

Amir.

P.S.

1.3.x is not exactly an option, I would like to have compatibilty with 
the university computer.

Thanks.

[Amir Seginer]

Thanks, Andre' and Dekel,

Re: problem about math formula display

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

have you installed (for the QT front end) the latex-ttf-fonts package? 
In the LyX ftp site it is in the contrib directory.

fancyhdr and Hebrew - almost solved

[Amir Seginer]

OK, I have solved half of my problems. I can now write hebrew properly 
in the headers and footers: just put the commands 
\selectlanguage{hebrew} and \inputencoding{cp1255} within the \lhead 
command (see attached file).

However, Latex sometime exchanges the left and right headers, depending 
somehow on what I right within the body of the document. I've attached a 
small example of the problem (again, see attached file).

Thanks for any help,

Amir.

package fancyhdr and Hebrew

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

I'm trying to put Hebrew headers into a  document using fancyhdr.sty. I 
have two problems:

1) How do I control whether the language of the header is in Hebrew or 
English (see attached files).

2) I don't seem to find a relatively simple method of writing hebrew in 
the \lhead{} (and its like) commands in the preample. The hebrew I got 
in the first example is just a misprint of test (I'd rather not try 
all combinations of keybord keys which give the desired hebrew letters).

Thanks for any help,

Amir.

P.S.

If there is another solution that would be fine too.

Re: floatflt figures just before bibliography

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

Have you thought of using a diffrent package like picins or wrapfig. 
You'll have to use a minimal ERT for those, though. I think that picins 
is the most robust, although I'm no expert.

Hope this helps,

Amir.

P.S.

By the way does any one know how to use these packages properly with 
Hebrew? I've sort of managed to use picins by telling it that the width 
of the figure is negative and also giving it a strange offset, but this 
seems like an awkward solution and it isn't perfect yet.

when I have one of those floatflt figures, the ones where text is supposed to

on the bibliography page. Very strange sight. It seems it's even trying to 
wrap the bibliography around the picture, but it only gets to move the title, 
the word Bibliography, and then everything goes to hell. 

It's especially strange since I have a page break right before the 
bibliography so it should be on its own page no matter what.

The extended features doc DID say that the package was kinda fragile though, 
so, I guess I shoulda seen it comin'. But if someone knows a way around this 
that is not a huge pain with writing tons of weird LaTeX code and exporting

Hebrew in Ruurd Reitsma's Lyx port

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

A friend of mine has installed Ruurd Reitsma's Lyx port on Windows-XP. 
All seems to work except for one problem. When typing hebrew, the 
letters  appear in reverse order, i.e. when you type ABC (actually aleph 
bet gimel) it shows on the screen CBA (gimel bet aleph).

The same problem also occurs when opening (in windows) files written 
properly on a linux machine. I'm guessing this is because Windows works 
natively with hebrew and so it automatically reverses the order of the 
letters, however so does LyX, and the result is that they cancell each 
other.

Any Idea/help would be appreciated,

Thanks,

Amir.

Re: math editor problems - 1.3.1

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

Hi.. I'm having trouble with some simple math in the math editor.. I'm getting
errors saying there are missing $, } etc.. I'm attaching a sample file here
which has 2 lines of math text that gives me 15 errors. Please let me know what
needs to be done to correct this (if it can be corrected by the user..)
The problem was in the second equation on the first line. To solve it I 
simply rewrote it (see attached file) --- I'm assuming you didn't want 
the right parenthasis in bold.

 This kind of problem happens to me from time to time in lyx 
(mysterious errors which are solved by rewrting a small section).

In this case it might be the \mathrm in your equation which then 
includes \mathbf (maybe you pressed C-m by mistake within the equation?).

I should add however, that when I deleted by hand the \mathrm and its 
appropriate {} (second attached file), in the exported LaTeX file, 
running Latex on it gave me no problems but importing it back did give 
me problems

I Hope this helps,

Amir.

Re: math editor problems - 1.3.1

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

Hi.. I'm having trouble with some simple math in the math editor.. I'm getting
errors saying there are missing $, } etc.. I'm attaching a sample file here
which has 2 lines of math text that gives me 15 errors. Please let me know what
needs to be done to correct this (if it can be corrected by the user..)
The problem was in the second equation on the first line. To solve it I 
simply rewrote it (see attached file) --- I'm assuming you didn't want 
the right parenthasis in bold.

 This kind of problem happens to me from time to time in lyx 
(mysterious errors which are solved by rewrting a small section).

In this case it might be the \mathrm in your equation which then 
includes \mathbf (maybe you pressed C-m by mistake within the equation?).

I should add however, that when I deleted by hand the \mathrm and its 
appropriate {} (second attached file), in the exported LaTeX file, 
running Latex on it gave me no problems but importing it back did give 
me problems

I Hope this helps,

Amir.

Re: Math Macro with arguments

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

hugh a. duguid wrote:
I have reviewed the sections on Math Macros, 5.1, etc and still need 
help setting up a math macro with arguments.
Specifically, I'd like to have a summation with the upper and lower 
limits, as well as the argument of the summation empty so that they can 
be filled in as needed.
It appears that I do not understand the math-macro-arg number business.
I'm using lyx-1.2.1 on Mandrake 9.0
I couldn't figure how to use math-macro-arg either, but there is another 
way to do this.

For example to create a macro \mysum for the sum, enter in the 
mini-buffer (M-x to reach it)

math-macro mysum 2	(no \ before mysum)

Then at the box you get, simply enter a sum with subscript #1 (without 
the quatations) and a superscript #2 i.e. enter

\sum_{#1}^{#2}

now when you type \mysum in math mode Lyx will give you two boxes to 
write the limits in.

Hope this helps,

Amir

Re: alphabetic order for style list?

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

This might be difficult to implement, or simply undesired, but how about 
detachable groups like in the symbols in the math-panel (in 1.3.0-Qt 
this seems very convenient). I could then detach a sections panel 
with, say, chapter, section, subsection,... and another, say, 
mathematical panel with theorem, lemma, proof, ...

It would of course be nice, if I could somehow also create my own panels 
(by editing some text file for example).

I do agree however that a full list should appear somewhere (maybe 
detach the panels from the list).

installing (1.3.0) Thesaurus mini-bug?

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

I've just finished installing Lyx-1.3.0 and intend to check it out. 
However, I've had one problem of installing Lyx with the thesaurus. I 
installed Aiksaurus (Aiksaurus-0.15-1rh80.i386.rpm from the Lyx ftp 
site). However during the make process Lyx complained that it couldn't 
find /usr/lib/libAiksaurus.so.

To solve this I creadted alink libAiksaurus.so to libAiksaurus.so.0 
(well actually to /usr/lib/libAiksaurus.so.0.15). This does not mean 
that libAiksaurus.so.0 is not needed, since when starting lyx it looks 
for libAiksaurus.so.0.

I don't know if this is an Aiksaurus or lyx bug (or maybe just mine).

I hope this helps any one,

Amir.

P.S.

I'm assuming this problem also exists in other (1.2.x) versions since my 
thesaurus didn't work there either.

Re: xfig figure in a slide?

[Amir Seginer]

Hello,

I have just started using the tex2pdf script (see Lyx's tips  tricks 
under pdf). This works very well for me. After installation, just choose 
File - Export - PDF (pdflatex) and it does all the needed conversions 
(including for xfig) and gives a good pdf file. The only minor problem 
is that you can't use dots in the file name (except one before the file 
extension).
