gtk frontend
I have compiled lyx 1.4pre3 with the gtk frontend and I am really impressed by its looks. However, there are still a few dialogs in Xforms format. The website says that only a few speed issues will be solved before 1.4. Does this mean that the final 1.4 will still have a mixed gtk/xforms UI? Bye, Martijn -- __ I have a new e-mail adress.

\usepackage{lmfonts} is the best solution, imho. The Latin Modern (lm)
fonts are scalable type1 postscript implementation of the standard latex
EC fonts. The look exactly like the normal type3 bitmap latex fonts,
except that they scale nicely.

latex, pdflatex and lyx preview
Hi, To be able to use both latex and pdflatex, I removed the .eps filename extensions from the filenames in my lyx document. But now lyx cannot generate previews anymore because the filename specifications do not point to existing files. Is this a know issue? If yes, is it fixed in 1.4? It is possible to work around this problem using symlinks, but this is not very elegant. Bye, Martijn Brouwer For your interest: I stripped the extension of the filenames in my lyx document with these commands. For a single file you only nedd the second line. T for f in $(ls [123456]-*.lyx); do echo $f; sed -e s/\(.filename.*\)\.eps/\1/g /$f $f.new done Rename the .new files in order to used them.

lmodern, ae and missing fonts
Hi, I have finished my PhD thesis (Many thanks to all contributers to LyX). When I went with my postscript file to the printer we found that the resolution of the fonts was too small. It turned out that I had the standard EC bitmap fonts with a resolution of 600dpi. After a day playing with latex and dvips I have now five versions of my thesis: 1) With low resolution bitmap fonts 2) With higher resolution bitmap fonts (by defining another printer for dvips) 3) With scalable CM (bluesky) fonts. For this I had to swith off T1 encoding 4) With scalable CM fonts and T1 encoding using the ae package 5) With scalable lmodern fonts I have a few questions: With Version 3-5, I cannot use large, bold, smallcaps font. Latex uses the default font instead. I have worked around it by switching to large small caps. Is there a way to get this combination of font attributes? - Am I correct when I say that lmodern is to EC fonts what bluesky is to CM? - Why is ae considered bad? Because it is a pseudofont that performs tricks to make accented glyphs? I have concluded that lmfonts are the way to go. I only found this after nearly a day searching internet, an experimentning. I think that LyX should automatically load lmodern whan T1 encoding is used and the fonts are available. Bye, Martijn Brouwer

LyX feature poll on Wiki pages
To give the developers an idea about the features that the users would like to be included in LyX, I started a feature poll on the LyX wiki pages. In this way I hope to help making LyX an even greater program than it already is. So see the poll go to http://wiki.lyx.org/pmwiki.php/LyX/FeaturePoll. If you want to vote click on the 'edit page' link in the upper right corner of the page and follow the instructions. Martijn Brouwer

New feature poll?
I just read the lyx the latest LyX development news, and noted that there are great interface improvements in the pipeline: cutomisable toolbars (I am looking forward to insert floats from the toolbar!), more structured menus, and new icons. When will lyx-1.3.4 (or 1.4.0) arrive? Gui improvents are good, but I am also interested in new latex functionality being covered by the lyx gui. I am wondering whether it would be a good idea to have a poll about what lyx users would like to be added to lyx. I think the opinions of the developers on a poll are especially important since they are the people who have to implement functionality suggested by the users. So in short: what do we think about a new-features-poll? Martijn

Advice for PhD thesis
Hi, I am rewriting an art icle to a chapter of my PhD thesis and for the time being I am using the report class. I would like my chapters to start with a page containing the chapter title and an abstract summarising the contents of the chapter. I tried to do this in the 'report' class but I encounter a few problems: - The abstract is typeset on page of its own. - After an abstract the page counter is reset. I guess report is not the right class to to this. Can somebody point me a class where I can achieve the following: 1) A chapter starts with a page containing the title and abstract, with a sane pagenumbering 2) I would like to have an bibliography at the end of each chapter. (I will have a look at chapterbib) 3) I do not want to have the chapter titles start with 'Chapter X' 4) I would like to be able to use the \frontmatter and \mainmatter commando's I think the standard book and its equivalent from komascript are good candidates, but I still don't know how to achieve 1). Can somebody give me some advice on how to achieve want I want? Another class or just a clever latex package? I have seen a few PhD theses written in LaTeX with this layout, so it has to be possible. Thanks in advance! Martijn Brouwer -- Physics is a approximate description of a part of the physical phenomena, that are only a small portion of human perceptions. H Casimir, Dutch Physicist

display of greek letters
Hi, When I insert greek letters in a document they are not diplayed correctly. I do not get the symbol but the name of letter. So when I type \alpha, I see 'alpha' in red instead of the symbol alpha. Latex output is OK, so I think it is related to my mathfont. Another user in my system does not have this problem, so the cause is somewhere in my configuration. Does somebody have a clue where I can look? I tried moving away my ~/.lyx/preferences, but that did not help. Bye, Martijn Brouwer

rendering greek letters in 1.3.3 qt
Hi since I upgraded lyx to 1.3.3 qt, greek letters are not rendered anymore in LyX (latex output is OK). The symbols are displayed as ERT. An equation with a lot of \varepsilons becomes very unreadable. Can anybody shed some light on this? Am I missing some X11 fonts, is something else wrong or is this a bug? It is WYGIWYM, but not WYSIWYM :(. Martijn

Can't use scalable interface fonts anymore.
Until sometime ago, I used the bitstream charter font for displaying roman text in lyx, but a few days ago I saw lyx changed this to helvetica. Since this is a sans serif bitmap font I wanted to revert to charter, but that font was not listed anymore in the drop down list. It is still installed. Running reconfigure did not help. Does somebody have an idea how I can get my scalable fonts back? Martijn
Re: Scientific Word files
When I tried it, it complained about the revtex4.layout, which is of lyx 1.3. With the version of 1.4 Andre sent me, a 1.4 lyx document was created which could not be imported in 1.4. So for users of 1.3, reLyX is the only way to go. Martijn P.S. When will 1.4 arrive and what will it bring us?

Scientific Word files
I have a document created wiht Scientific Word, and exported as portable tex document.
Together with the tcilatex file, it compiles correctly, but how can I read it in lyx?
Is there a nice script that replaces SW macros like \unit{} with normal tex commands?
What is the correct way to insert units anyways?
Thanks in advance

I have some important extra info.

Insert table in 1.3.2 QT displaying fixed column width tables.
I have a problem with table insertino in LyX 1.3.2 with QT frontend (overall an enormous improvement): The 'insert table' is not shown in the menu. The only table related menu entries are: edit - tabular (greyed out), and insert - floats - table.
