Table formatting

2011-05-30 Thread Christoph Mayer
Dear all, 

I have some trouble to format the following table. I've attached just an 
exemplary Version  as .lyx-file, since it's a quite complicated table and I 
don't know where to search for the reason. The table as shown in Lyx itself is 
as I want it to have: I have some multicolumns, multirows.   After each 
Multicolumn, marked with Section 1, Section 2, and so on, I want to have at 
least a normal separation in order to distinguish better between these 
sections. It is shown well in Lyx, but during compilation, between the 
different Sections, there is no separation anymore visible, which makes the 
table much harder to read. Could you please help me with some hints to find out 
what went wrong with my table or how the format could be improved? 
I'm running Lyx 2.0 under OsX. 

thank you very much for your kind help, all the best and a nice evening!

newcommand or command in caption of figure?

2011-02-03 Thread Christoph Mayer
Dear all, 

I have a graph which i need to explain in the caption. Unfortunately I need 
numbers and letters with a circle around in order to explain it (which is a 
scanned image). Therefore, I defined a new command in the preamble of the main 
document  

\usepackage{tikz}
\newcommand*\mycirc[1]{%
\begin{tikzpicture}[baseline=(C.base)]
\node[draw,circle,inner sep=1pt](C) {#1};
\end{tikzpicture}}

and here the preview of the latex-code, I inserted the command via ERT:

\begin{figure}
\noindent \begin{centering}
\includegraphics[scale=0.5]{\string../Pics/Chapter/1_\string.png}
\par\end{centering}
\caption{ diagram displaying the corrosion
\mycirc{1}\label{fig:1} }
\end{figure}


I cannot compile it, even when I insert the command directly into the caption, 
like

\begin{tikzpicture}[baseline=(C.base)] \node[draw,circle,inner sep=1pt](C) {1}; 
\end{tikzpicture}

it only produces errors, while both possible ways work outside the caption in 
standard environment. 

Could anybody help me to get around that problem inside the caption 
environment? 
thanks a lot and all the best!

Thanks a lot, rh, 

unfortunately I need as well circled letters, which are not included in the 
package afair. I will have another glimpse on it.

 pifont provides circled numbers. So \usepackage{pifont} and then: \ding{172} 
 for a circled `1'. See 
 http://willbenton.com/wb-images/pifont.pdf
 for the codepoints.

 I'm guessing that the problem here has to do with the use of tikzpix in 
 moving arguments. Perhaps a different version of \mycirc would solve the 
 problem, say, one that just printed the argument over a circle. I'm 
 forgetting at the moment how to do that in a size-agnostic way. I guess by 
 making boxes, figuring out how big they are, and then using \kern to move 
 back just the right amount.

Thank you for your help, I managed it with the initial command, just a 
\protect\mycirc{1}  was enough to make the job!
