Re: Pagenumber at top of TITLE page - how to?
Hi - just out of interest - is there a way to enable page numbers on Title
pages?
Thanks,

First set Layout-Document-Layout-Page style to Fancy, then in the
preamble add \rhead{\thepage} to put it in the upper right corner.
Change \rhead to \lhead or \chead to put it in the left corner or center
respectively. You can also embellish it (for instance,
\rhead{-\thepage-} to add a dash on either side).
This won't apply to a title page, though.

Python interface to relyx?
Hi, still trying to get to the bottom of relyx in windows. I found an old archive message from Angus explaing that the conversion error that occurs after the perl relyx script executes is due to python somehow. Can someone point me to where python completes the 2nd half of the conversion? I do have python installed, so I reckon it must be directory pointers. All I really want is the location and name of the python script. Thanks Brian - Yahoo! Messenger NEW - crystal clear PC to PC calling worldwide with voicemail

relyx in windows?
Hi folks, what is the trick to make relyx work in windows? I've found that I need to put the .tex file in the bin directory where relyx.bat is so that it can find it, but after that, the system complains that the conversion has failed. Thanks, Brian Williams PS I tried tex2lyx, but got lots of complaints about running an earlier version of lyx, and loads of error boxes. - How much free photo storage do you get?

Re: relyx in windows?
Thanks, but I can't upgrade to 1.3.6 for some weeks. Tex2Lyx seems to expect 1.3.6 files, so maybe that's why I got errors. This question is really about whether anyone has succeeded in making relyx work under windows. I found that if I created a null lyx file, I could take the relyx output and edit the mid section into the lyx file and that would work, but it is a real hassle. Therefore the problem has got to be something to do with the preamble, but I'm not well versed enough to figure it out. Thanks anyway, Brian Stephen P.

2nd argument in math mode
Hi folks,
hope this question isn't too newbie!
I wanted to insert this command \rule{0pt}{4.5ex} in the element of an array.
I didn't want to use arraystretch
because one of the elements contained a 2x2 matrix, and I assume that would be
stretched too.
How do I get the 2nd argument? In the end, I cheated and edited the .lyx file,
and lyx showed it in red just fine. It would be nice if you could insert a }{
inside the argument, but Lyx won't allow that either.
I don't think you can go into ERT in math mode can you?
Thanks!

Re: LyXWin not working on XP
You have User Lyx directory: 'C:/Documents and Settings/db/.lyx/' Maybe the problem is that you have your user directory set to a directory with spaces in the pathname? It may not be in this case, but I'm sure it will give you trouble later. http://wiki.lyx.org/pmwiki.php/LyX/WindowsSetup says: Install the programs above into folders that contain no spaces in the name. Eg. C:\LyX If it could deal with spaces in the user directory, surely it wouldn't need that restriction? The way I get around this is to map a local network drive (X:) to the Documents and Settings directory so as to avoid having to create yet another top level directory. Brian David Boutillier [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am having difficulty getting LyXWin working properly. 1) I have followed the detailed notes for installing LyXWin on XP from the LyX/WindowsSetup page of the LyX wiki-wiki. 2) I have opened LyX from a command window with the command lyx -dbg 3.

Re: LyXWin not working on XP
You have User Lyx directory: 'C:/Documents and Settings/db/.lyx/' Maybe the problem is that you have your user directory set to a directory with spaces in the pathname? It may not be in this case, but I'm sure it will give you trouble later. http://wiki.lyx.org/pmwiki.php/LyX/WindowsSetup says: Install the programs above into folders that contain no spaces in the name. Eg. C:\LyX If it could deal with spaces in the user directory, surely it wouldn't need that restriction? The way I get around this is to map a local network drive (X:) to the Documents and Settings directory so as to avoid having to create yet another top level directory.

Numbered, bracketed, Systems of Equations - How??
Hi folks,
looks like this isn't such a newbie question after all.
Maybe I should ask it more carefully.
I want to use LyX to produce systems of equations that look like this (output
exported from LyX):
$\left\{ \begin{array}{r}
(3-\lambda)C + 2D = 0\\
C + (4-\lambda)D = 0\end{array}\right.$
but with each line numbered, like eqnarray
Reasons are that I want the operators to line up correctly, and it will match
the course textbooks that I am using with an Open University Maths course that
I'm doing (they were published using TeX).
I've tried all kinds of combinations of brackets and environments with no luck.
By the way, the user guide says this in section 5.2: If you decide after the
fact to place parentheses (or other math structure, like a square root, or
other decoration) around some math structure, you can do that by highlighting
(selecting) the structure that is to go inside the parentheses...Then, choose
the appropriate brackets for left and right, and click on Apply. The
parentheses will be drawn around the selected structure.
This does not appear to be true for equation environments or arrays for that
matter.
Has this been done in LyX yet?
Many thanks,
Brian

Re: Numbered, bracketed, Systems of Equations - How??
Hi Herbert,
using some of your ideas, I've got what I wanted using a single row, 3 element array. It's almost all done with LyX with a minimum of Latex in-line code.
Question is, do you think it's terribly kludgy? See attached.

Newbie question
Hi,
Hope this isn't too simple I'd like to define a quick way in Lyx of
entering this construct for entering a system of equations:
$\left\{ \begin{array}{r}
\\\end{array}\right.$
Currently I achieve this by using the Math panel to insert an unmatched left
squiggly brace, then a 2 x 5 matrix right justified by column, and this takes a
boring number of keystrokes.
I tried defining a macro, but of course I can't edit it.
Is there any way of creating a macro that puts objects on the screen that you
can edit?
Thanks!

how to make empheq work?
Hi,
I'm a newbie with Lyx. I've been trying to get the empheq package to work but
can't.
I put \usepackage{empheq} in the preamble, and created an ERT box containing
this test code..
\begin{empheq}
\begin{align}
E=mc^2 \\
Y= \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^2}
\end{align}
\end{empheq}
It generated a host of errors starting with this:
LaTeX Error: \begin{empheq} on input line 25 ended by \end{align}.
\end{align}
Your command was ignored.
Type I command return to replace it with another command,
or return to continue without it.
Any ideas?
Many thanks

RE: how to make empheq work (with LyX)? - still struggling
Thanks Georg, but still no luck.
I've renamed the subject, because it may just be a problem with LyX.
I went the document The empheq package* by Morten Høgholm 2004/10/10
and cut and paste this sample into an ERT box
\begin{empheq}{align*}
a=b \tag{*}\\
E=mc^2 + \int_a^a x\, dx
\end{empheq}
and Lyx gives me this error:
Undefined control sequence.
\end{empheq}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.
I don't get it! Any further help gratefully received
Thanks,
Brian Williams

I didn't know about that limitation with the ERT box (I'm too new). I couldn't
find it in the user documentation... curious! Can you recommend anything more
complete?
Thanks again,

This is a limitation of the ERT box in LyX 1.3.x. Don't use normal newlines
in ERT, but Ctrl-Enter. The latter will produce one newline in the .tex
output, normal newlines will produce a paragraph break (= 2 newlines).
The attached file works for me.

Of course, the only reason why I need this is because I don't know how to make
lyx align a system of equations (4 cols) with the operators and equals signs
lined up and a big brace to the left. All the align environments that I've
found in Lyx are limited to 2 or 3. Am I missing something?
