Re: Does Sweave work for LyX 2.13 on Windows 7
Thanks Yihui and Jean-Marc Sorry for being unclear. I could not add the Sweave Module. It is fixed now. The reason was indeed that Rscript.exe was not specified in the PATH . *So to summarise for future reference: * If Sweave does not work in LyX (Windows) but does work in R: See if you can add the Sweave Module. If not, check that that path to Rscripe.exe is specified in the PATH (under Tools Preferences Paths PATH Prefix).

Re: Including LaTeX code produced by Sweave in a LyX document
Answering my own question for the record To include latex code generated by R through Sweave one has to specify a filename with a .tex extension save the latex files there. In that way Sweave doesnt print the tex code in the pdf document by saves it in the specified place. In LyX these tex documents can be included as child documents Insert File Child Document Generate pdf and update the pdf directly afterwards.

R has functions can generate latex tables which is highly cusomizable. When these functions are run using sweave in LyX the do exactly what they are supposed to do and generate Latex code. LyX then typesets the verbatim code perfectly as in the pdf document. What I want is obviously the table and not the latex code that produces the table. When I paste that code into ERT it generate the table perfectly. I now want sweave to generate its output inside something like ERT Is there a way to say to LyX what follows here is LaTeX and it must be handled like you include ERT latex code generated by sweave comes here close ERT-like environment regrads Christiaan

Using named colors
Hi everybody
dvips knows 68 standard colours (see then at h t t p ://
en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Colors#The_68_standard_colors_known_to_dvips )
that have names. Some of them are quite beautiful. How can I use these named
colours is Lyx - for example to define text colours or the shading colour. I
have tried to insert:
\usepackage[usenames,dvipsnames]{color}
\definecolor{shadecolor}{named}{ProcessBlue}
in the preamble but it doesnt work.
If I export the LyX file to LateX and insert the in the first part of the
latex preamble it does work. Is there something extra that I need to do in
Lyx ?
Defning the shadecolor using rgb codes does work: e.g
\definecolor{shadecolor}{rgb}{0.95,0.1,1} for a purplish colour to use in a
shaded box. I suppose one could try to find the rgb codes for all those
nice dvips colours, but using the names would be more elegant and easy to
remember.
Incedently: Can I define the colour of a certain type of text (e.g. section
heading) in the preamble?

Christiaan

LyX and R: Unable to import data
Hi Everybody I use R2.8.0 on Mac OS X. I set up LyX 1.6.1 to use Sweave today following the instructions on the LyX wiki. It seems to work fine. I can compile the test file I found on CRAN (http://cran.r-project.org/contrib/extra/lyx/) without a problem and the output looks very nice. In the test file the following R code is used. myFirstChunkInLyX= xObs - 100; xMean - 10; xVar - 9 x - rnorm(n=xObs, mean=xMean, sd=sqrt(xVar)) mean(x) @ that should be the same as: xObs - 100 xMean - 10 xVar - 9 x - rnorm(n=xObs, mean=xMean, sd=sqrt(xVar)) mean(x) in the R console. My problem is that I want to import data to use in my report. In the R source I currently use to analyse my data I import it through csv.get(). I have found that I cannot use csv.get() or write.csv() from within LyX. I don't seem to be able to use load() to get a .rda file in either. So now I am stuck because no data equals no report. Is this issue related to LyX, LaTeX or R? Thanks in advance Christiaan

I have found that I cannot use csv.get() or write.csv() from within LyX. I don't seem to be able to use load() to get a .rda file in either. So now I am stuck because no data equals no report. Is this issue related to LyX, LaTeX or R? Thanks in advance Christiaan
SOLVED: LyX and R: Unable to import data
The answer was that it was a operator (me) problem. The library that enables get.csv is Hmisc and should have been loaded. thus: <>= library(Hmisc) x=csv.get(file="/Users/christiaanpauw/tmp/x.csv") mean(x) @ 2009/2/27 christiaan pauw <cjp...@gmail.com> > Hi Everybody > I use R2.8.0 on Mac OS X.

Including LaTeX code produced by Sweave in a LyX document
Hi Everybody I started using R with LyX (through Sweave) recently (earlier today actually) and can see from here that it has great potential. R has functions can generate latex tables which is highly cusomizable. When these functions are run using sweave in LyX the do exactly what they are supposed to do and generate Latex code. LyX then typesets the verbatim code perfectly as in the pdf document. What I want is obviously the table and not the latex code that produces the table. When I paste that code into ERT it generate the table perfectly. I now want sweave to generate its output inside something like ERT Is there a way to say to LyX "what follows here is LaTeX and it must be handled like you include ERT" latex code generated by sweave comes here "close ERT-like environment" regrads Christiaan

graphic in fancy header causes crash with ps2pdf
Hallo Everybody
I use LyX 1.6.1 on Mac OS X
I have a report with fancy header and a logo in the header. It compiles very
well with pdflatex but cannot compile with ps2pdf
here is part of my preamble
\usepackage{graphics}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\lhead{Report page heading}
\chead{}
\rhead{\resizebox{2cm}{!}{\includegraphics{/Users/christiaanpauw/Pictures/logo.png}}}
The error message reads:

This is no crash.
Sorry, sloppy terminology on my side.
You used ps2pdf, that means that first a Postscript file is generated, and
that can only contain EPS images. So it should work when you use pdflatex
instead of ps2pdf, or when you use an EPS image.
Thanks, I'll try using a eps image. The reason I used ps2pdf is because the
resulting pdf file is much smaller (the pdflatex file is 27M for a 50 page
document). Why is there such a big difference between the size of the pdf
files?
Thanks again for helping

Full colour book
Hi Everybody I have written a large technical report with LyX and now the project sponsor wants to publish it as a book. The format they are thinking about should be very visual with a lot of photos as backdrop to the pages and things like that. I have approached a publisher that wants to do it in some DTP program. They see all my beautiful LateX as an obstacle. They are going to be very expensive (for example $3000 for indexing). Does anyone have experience or examples of an more popular eye candy approach to publishing with LyX/LaTeX. kind regards Christiaan

In any case, try to delete any font-related packages from the preamble.
Thanks Konrad, I removed \RequirePackage{times} from the preamble and it
worked in TeXshop but Lyx is still not able to import the file -which is
basically a table with a heading- correctly. The Lyx import is a page full
of ERT. If i try to compile it, it gives an error message like
Misplaced \omit.' with the rest of the message

I expect to see \omit only after tab marks or the \cr of an alignment.
Proceed, and I'll ignore this case.
I think it has something to do with the array package

Trouble importing latex file in Lyx

I have a latex file which is an export from SAS which is basically huge
collection of tables that I need to use in a report which i write in Lyx. I
want to import the tables into the Lyx document. The TeX document compiles

gives a good quality pdf output. When i use Lyx's import function no table
is imported but only a series of ERT blocks with a lot of s in between
(not in ERT for some reason). The stuf in the ERT look like this
\multicolumn{1}{|S{Data}{r}|}{1107.89}. This is the individual cell
content. At the beginning of each line there is a \hline and at the end of a
row there is a forced linebreak.
The file doesn't compile and gives the error message Misplaced \omit. and
.n{sastable}{[}c]{}\hline \multicolumn {1}{|S{Header}{c}|}{Obs}
I expect to see \omit only after tab marks or the \cr of an alignment.
Proceed, and I'll ignore this case.
Is there any hope to ever use this tex file in Lyx or do i have to do my

Uncompilable output due to bibtex fault
Hi Everybody I use Lyx 1.5.3 of Mac OS X leapard with TexShop 2.14 I have a problem with a document that has an bibtex bibliogoraphy that cannot compile in anything but plain.bst When I use plain.bst as the style it give (author?) for the author but at leasts gives a bibliography at the end When I try to use natbib or apsrmp the document cannot compile at all. The error message says misplaced alignment tab charachter Is there possibly a fault in my .bib file. (like a misplaced ). How does one check a .bib file for errors on Mac OS X ? thanks in advance regards Christiaan

Uncompilable file
Hallo Everybody
I'm in deep trouble. I have a file (a report due yesterday) that I
cannot compile. I use LyX 1.5.4 on Mac OS X with TeXlive-2007-basic .
The problem seems to be related to a inline formula
I exported the file to Latex and this is what the offending line looks
like:
more than 30~000 \textgreek{m}g/m{\small 3} during stove use (several
times the US-EPA 24-hour ambient standard of 150 \textgreek{m}g/m
$^{3}$ for PM$_{10}$ {[}particulate matter with a diameter of less
than 10 \textmu{}m]
The error message is:
Font LGR/cmr/m/n/9=grmn0900 at 9.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file
not found
...ween 300 to more than 30~000 \textgreek{m}
g/cubic
I wasn't able to read the size data for this font, so I will ignore
the font specification.
[Wizards can fix TFM files using TFtoPL/PLtoTF.] You might try
inserting a different font spec; e.g., type `I\fontsame font
id=substitute font name'
Does anyone understand what this means or how i can fix it?
thanks in advance

Aspell problems in Lyx 1.5.1
Hi All I installed 1.5.1 for windows yesterday . It is a vast improvement on the already good 1.4.1 I had previously. The only thing that doesn't work is the spellchecker.

Article with seperate title page and TOC
Hallo Everybody I am writing a report using the article class but I want the title page and TOC on seperate pages like the report class does (but I don't want tot use Chapters like the report class). I used a manual page break after Title, author, date but sometimes I get errors when I compile. When I delete the manual page break, everything works again. Is there a way in which I can change the article class to automatically break after the title-author-date or to change the report class to be able to use it without chapters so that it does not number the sections 0.1 0.2 0.3 etc but just 1 2 3 etc? regards Christiaan

Adding longtables to List of Tables
Hi All
I have a 100 page document with a lot of table floats in it. Thus have a
List of Tables in the Table of Content. Everything works fine except
for 4 longtables that I have. I could not place these tables in a float
because they cover several pages. I have searched this list and found
some advice on how to add tables to a List of Tables. I added the
following ERT
\addcontentsline{lot}{lot}{\hspace{0.6cm}\thetable\hspace{0.7cm} TABLE
NAME \hfill}
The first table look OK in the List of Tables
The second and all subsequent ones have the table number too far left
The fourth table has the page number too far left
It looks something like this:
1. TABLE 1
i
2. TABLE 2
ii
3. TABLE 3
iii
4. TABLE 4 1
(too much space here)
5. TABLE 5
5
6. TABLE 6
6
...etc
Table 5 is the first float. From there on everything is OK
Adjusting the values of the \hspace in the inserted ERT seems to have no
effect.
This is the only mistake is an otherwise beautiful document. Does
anybody know how to fix this.

strange text alignment in tables
Hi all I am writhing a questionnaire in Lyx 1.4.1 on Win XP. The whole thing is one gigantic table. I experience very strange effects with the alignment of text both vertically and horizontally 1. Text in adjacent columns are not aligned even when both are set at the same vertical alignment. This happens not only but especially when a ctr-enter was used. 2. Multicolunm the cells above and below to disregard their column width settings 3. Horizontal alignment is not the same for rows either. Sometimes the text begins with an indent, sometimes not 4. Setting the column with sometimes does not set the width of the column but the width of the text within . this is the case in multicolumns. The problem is that there is no control over the width of a column when one cell is also part of a multicolumn Can anyone help regards Christiaan . -- Dr Christiaan Pauw (tel) +27 12 420 2015 (fax) +27 12 420 4016 The peacock’s feather - whenever I gaze at it - makes me sick Charles Darwin

Comment in Lyx .4.1 for windows results in space on DVI output
Hallo All I have installed 1.4.1 on my windows box at work. Everything works well. After some searching I found the comment format under INSERTNOTEComment. . This is weird but fine. I have had two problems. 1. It is now necessary to highlight an entire section to be commented. Once I got an error due to this ( a problem with to many }s). 2. My bigger problem is that there is a whitespace footprint (something like an open line ) in the DVI output. Can this be fixed? regards christiaan
