Vertical Centering of a Title Page
Greetings: I am trying to center a title page. I used a \pagebreak command to put just the title on the first page, but I need to have it centered. Can someone point me to what I need to do? Most of the LaTeX books I have only talk about horizontal centering. Thanks in advance. Michelle __ Do You Yahoo!? Make international calls for as low as $.04/minute with Yahoo!

Something interesting to pass along
Group: You may have seen my posts about trying to get what I called FloatNotes to be in a certain place in a document. In my research, I found in _The Latex Companion_ by Goossens, et.al., p. 149, you can go one step more than just h,t,p,b. There is also H. h only means try to put it here while H means put it here--PERIOD. \begin{table}[H] blah blah blah table \end{tabular} \caption{info about table} \end{table} It cannot be used in conjunction with other specifiers though, i.e., [Hht] is illegal. You must, of course, issue a command to use the package... \restylefloat{table} or \restylefloat{figure} The book goes on to explain what is called a wrapfigure. Close to what I was trying to do with Float Note. See pg 152 of the book for more details. Trying to absorb more info to get EXACTLY what the boss wants. Thanks to all for your help...hope this is helpful to others as well. Michelle __ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo! Mail http://personal.mail.yahoo.com/

Changing R L margins
Greetings: I am trying to change the margins in my document and the Layout- Document option for margins lets me enter numbers like 1.25, but then the option to say OK or APPLY greys out and I can't figure out why? I have been pouring though the online stuff and I think I have lost my mind. This is something simple and I know I am missing something really easy here.

Floating text box
Greetings: With the gracious help from the list, I have the following: * a box * with shading * that contains a clickable url from pdf * that just out past the right margin * with text wrapping around it My problem is that I can't seem to control WHERE in the paragraph the box is placed. I know LyX is the kind of system that places things where it believes it to be best, but I want to put the box nearer to the end of the paragraph. As it stands now, it centers the single line box between the 2nd and 3rd lines at the beginning of the paragraph with a total of 4 lines indented to the left of the box. I would not mind if it only indented 2 or 3 lines and did it between the last few lines of the paragraph. I tried to use [H] to force it to go here but that caused errors all over my document. Any suggestions? Michelle __ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo! Mail http://personal.mail.yahoo.com/

Grant proposal from a non-profit
Greetings: In my attempts to prove to my fellow man that LyX is the answer for our document writing and desktop publishing, I have been given another task to prove that Lyx is the one true way. I am trying to write a grant proposal from a large non-profit organization to a foundation. They have given me the last proposal and challenged me to make it so Number One. My first thought is to ask the group if anyone knows of a document class layout that I can slurp up to use as my starting point. I did a GOOGLE search and the few that I found listed as grant proposals written by Lyx were all too old to retrieve. If anyone has something they would recommend I would be glad to have a look. I will have several very specific things to put into the document: --Screen shots from the web (I was going to use a neat little tool called xsnap to grap the images I want and insert as figures). --FloatNotes with clickable links in pdf format with a nifty click arrow. I have about a week to put this all together as the proposal is due the first week of July (nothing like a deadline to make one perky). If I can prove to them that we can be free of Windows and Abode, and that open source is not just the best way but the right way, then I can help wean the computers here from the evils of M$.

getting closer to what I want for FloatNote
Greetings: I am trying to still find a way to put a block of shaded text that is also outlined, into a very specific location in my text. This is what I have done: I made a few tables (in a separate Lyx file) using only one column and different row amounts (the row amounts are based on coming up with a width for each line of text so that the widths are uniform between tables). I used the right click-cell-multicolumn option to remove the lines between the rows and to left align the horizontal rows. I inserted TeX command to create shading (which goes over the edge of my box...but then I may just lose the table edges altogether and just stick with the shading): \definecolor{light}{grey}{.75}{\colorbox{light}{**table here**} I then cut and pasted them into my document. What I get is the boxes looking very nice, but not in nice locations. And I would prefer to have the text wrap around them like in Section 1.8.3 of the Lyx Extended Features online handbook. If you have been following my posts, this is still my attempt at FLOAT-NOTE. The other suggestions I have not yet made work to my satisfaction. Thanks in advance. Michelle __ Do You Yahoo!?

A hybrid of a margin note and wrapping text around figures
Greetings All: Okay, here is something that I am working on trying to make happen within a new document. The page is 8.5 x 11 Right Margin 1.25 Left Margin 2.5 I want to float some text, including some hyperlinks, to the right of my text, but partially into the text. See my crude image below for a better idea of what I am trying to do. * There would be text on the page and then at some point I would need to insert some text that I want XX to have look like this. I am XX sure this is possible, but I XX am not so sure how to do it. Any and all help would be greatly appre- ciated. * Now, just to keep this from being to easy, the XXX-text field would need to be shaded light grey with black type. There will be several of these fields in the document. This seems to be a mix of margin notes and floats. If just a margin note, I may have to change the margin just where the float note is so that it comes into the text margin a bit, but this would be a pain in my derriere to do each and everytime. Thanks in advance for all the help. Michelle __ Do You Yahoo!? Spot the hottest trends in music, movies, and more. http://buzz.yahoo.com/
Fwd: A hybrid of a margin note and wrapping text around figures
Okay. Either I have stumped the users or my mail was acting weird since no one has replied yet (this list replies so fast that maybe I am spoiled?). Anyways, I have been putzing around this afternoon with this and this is what I have found. I don't like the MarginNotes as an option. What I want is something that will hold a bit more text without being too many rows high. Trying to do a FigureFlt to wrap text around a Figure (my Figure would be my FloatNote text in the grey shading) is not what I want either for a couple of reasons. One, it is not controllable as to which side of the paper it falls on. According to the Extended Features Guide, page 15 The figure will always be on teh outside of a page; on the left side of an even numbered page, on the right side for an odd numbered page. While I understand the logic for this (it is thinking of book bindings) I want to make a paper where these FloatNotes would be either one side or the other, my preference is in the right margin. Second, I want something visually more promounced than something set in the documents margin or totally out of it. Something that would straddle the text margins and jut out into the right margin is optimal. I am willing to have the entire documents right margin be larger whether there are FloatNotes on the page or not. While this serious newbie is willing to try to hack her way to a solution, I am not progressing very well. I have the book _LaTeX Line by Line_ by Diller and I am awaiting my copy of the Lamport _LaTeX-A Document Preparation System: User's Guide and Reference Manual_, I am still going to have to work hard at this. Any suggestions, pointers, solutions, tips? Any would be most kindly welcomed. Thanks in advance.

A hybrid of a margin note and wrapping text around figures
Greetings All: Okay, here is something that I am working on trying to make happen within a new document. The page is 8.5 x 11 Right Margin 1.25 Left Margin 2.5 I want to float some text, including some hyperlinks, to the right of my text, but partially into the text. See my crude image below for a better idea of what I am trying to do. * There would be text on the page and then at some point I would need to insert some text that I want XX to have look like this. I am XX sure this is possible, but I XX am not so sure how to do it.

Fwd: A hybrid of a margin note and wrapping text around figures
Okay. Either I have stumped the users or my mail was acting weird since no one has replied yet (this list replies so fast that maybe I am spoiled?). Anyways, I have been putzing around this afternoon with this and this is what I have found. I don't like the MarginNotes as an option. What I want is something that will hold a bit more text without being too many rows high. Trying to do a FigureFlt to wrap text around a Figure (my Figure would be my FloatNote text in the grey shading) is not what I want either for a couple of reasons. One, it is not controllable as to which side of the paper it falls on. According to the Extended Features Guide, page 15 The figure will always be on teh outside of a page; on the left side of an even numbered page, on the right side for an odd numbered page. While I understand the logic for this (it is thinking of book bindings) I want to make a paper where these FloatNotes would be either one side or the other, my preference is in the right margin. Second, I want something visually more promounced than something set in the documents margin or totally out of it. Something that would straddle the text margins and jut out into the right margin is optimal. I am willing to have the entire documents right margin be larger whether there are FloatNotes on the page or not. While this serious newbie is willing to try to hack her way to a solution, I am not progressing very well. I have the book _LaTeX Line by Line_ by Diller and I am awaiting my copy of the Lamport _LaTeX-A Document Preparation System: User's Guide and Reference Manual_, I am still going to have to work hard at this. Any suggestions, pointers, solutions, tips? Any would be most kindly welcomed. Thanks in advance.

Rotating the Figure Float Text 90 degrees
Greetings all: I made a beautiful table in Lyx, rotated 90 degrees since it was so large. The only problem I have, is that my Figure Float text description did NOT rotate with the table. I would prefer to have the Table description right on top of the table in the same direction the table is placed. I don't see anything that will let me rotate something not within the table. Does anyone have a solution? Many thanks. Michelle... a Lyx Chix on Unix trying to fix the mix :) __ Do You Yahoo!? Spot the hottest trends in music, movies, and more. http://buzz.yahoo.com/

Paragraph Spacing
Hello All: I am using the Document Class Article and would like to change spacing between paragraphs universally to have an extra space between paragraphs. According to the Lyx manual, I should have the SETSPACE package, which I put into the preamble as: \usepackage setspace Then I went to LAYOUT-DOCUMENT and changed Default Skip to BigSkip but it did not change anything when I viewed in DVI. This would seem to be something I could do document-wide rather than reverting to using the Control space after every paragraph. Help?!?! I AM getting better at this, really I am.

problems with harvard.sty (BibTeX/Lyx interaction)

The errors say undefined control sequence and then show part of the \cite command.

Bolding a Veritcal or Horizontal Line in a Table in Lyx
Hello World: I am nearly done now with this document and doing some minor tweaking (yes, I know, that is what Lyx is supposed to do). I have a table that I rotated 90 degrees to fit on my page. I want to put a BOLD lines -- some vertically and some horizontally -- to divide out the Total sections and headers. I was able to make it happen just using LaTeX to create the table (by repeating \hling\hline at the end of the line I wanted the bold on), but my Lyx barfed it up and I had to redo completely in Lyx. Now, I can't figure out how to get bolding back. I also had a cap on my table to define the columns as a whole (ie., used REGIONS to cap off columns labeled 0, I, II-X) The cap is NOT to go over the first column (defines the rows) and the last column (giving totals). This too was do-able in LaTeX. Are these possible in Lyx? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Michelle Any help would be greatly appreciated. Michelle __ Do You Yahoo!?

Capitalization in BibTeX to LyX
Greetings: Moving right along in my experience with Lyx, I am setting up my bibliography with BibTeX. Couple of questions. 1. I cannot seem to get the harvard style to work. Went to a couple of sites: one was missing the makefile info http://www.mit.edu/afs/sipb/project/tex-new/doc/latex/harvard/ the other was a dead URL http://www.arch.su.edu.au/~peterw/latex/harvard/ . I am using plain for now, but help here would be greatly appreciated. How can I get the Harvard package and the various styles to work in Lyx? 2. I used the Incollection type for a reference and the Title (as opposed to the BookTitle) will only capitalize the first word. I understand that this is the normal mode, but my title is The Guatemalan Commission for Historical Clarification: blah blah blah which is a Proper noun. How can I override the non-cap tendency when necessary? Otherwise, I am a happy lil camper in my Lyx'ing. Just call me a LyxChix now. LOL. Many thanks for help on this and my previous posts.

Harvard Styles (packages problems)
Greetings all: I put harvard.sty in the dir below: /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base which is where article.sty and other packages seem to live, but Lyx gives me the error: Harvard.sty not found when I put \usepackage{harvard} in the Latex Preamble.

Greetings all: Many thanks to those who have been so gracious and prompt in their replies to my queries on Lyx. My transition to Linux has been painful and slow at times, but my migration to Lyx has been enhanced by the wonderful people on this list who have been so generous with their knowledge. We may yet get the rest of the people in the office to switch, especially with such great support from the Lyx open source community. I did the texhash and things are smoother now. I am trying to use different styles in BibTeX, mla and chicago bst in particular, but they keep crashing. Lyx reports that says: Undefined COntrol Sequence et~al. and then it gives the citation code that is barfing up. Again, many thanks to you all. Michelle LyxChix on Linux __ Do You Yahoo!?

How can I override the non-cap tendency when necessary? Otherwise, I am a happy lil camper in my Lyx'ing. Just call me a LyxChix now. LOL. Many thanks for help on this and my previous posts.

Harvard Styles (packages problems)
Greetings all: I put harvard.sty in the dir below: /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base which is where article.sty and other packages seem to live, but Lyx gives me the error: Harvard.sty not found when I put \usepackage{harvard} in the Latex Preamble. What is up? Also, where are the bst files supposed to live? Thanks. __ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo! Mail - only $35 a year! http://personal.mail.yahoo.com/

Greetings all: Many thanks to those who have been so gracious and prompt in their replies to my queries on Lyx. My transition to Linux has been painful and slow at times, but my migration to Lyx has been enhanced by the wonderful people on this list who have been so generous with their knowledge. We may yet get the rest of the people in the office to switch, especially with such great support from the Lyx open source community. I did the texhash and things are smoother now. I am trying to use different styles in BibTeX, mla and chicago bst in particular, but they keep crashing. Lyx reports that says: Undefined COntrol Sequence et~al. and then it gives the citation code that is barfing up. Again, many thanks to you all. Michelle LyxChix on Linux __ Do You Yahoo!?

Capitalization in BibTeX to LyX
Greetings: Moving right along in my experience with Lyx, I am setting up my bibliography with BibTeX. Couple of questions. 1. I cannot seem to get the harvard style to work. Went to a couple of sites: one was missing the makefile info http://www.mit.edu/afs/sipb/project/tex-new/doc/latex/harvard/ the other was a dead URL http://www.arch.su.edu.au/~peterw/latex/harvard/ . I am using plain for now, but help here would be greatly appreciated. How can I get the Harvard package and the various styles to work in Lyx? 2. I used the Incollection type for a reference and the Title (as opposed to the BookTitle) will only capitalize the first word.

New from Template Errors and book recommendation ?
I am working on the Lyx Tutorial, in particular the Templates. I can pull up the various templates listed under FILE New from Template, but only after a pop up error message that reads: *__* Textclass Error: The document uses an unknown textclass IEEEtran. Lyx will not be able to produce the output correctly. *__* This true for most of the Templates listed. I am interested in using a couple of the templates listed as they have what I want, but because of the error, I cannot print it, even though I can see the Template come up on my screen. Am I missing something? Also, would someone be willing to make a recommendation for a Lyx how-to book that is on the market that might help this very serious newbie? Many thanks.

Changing paragraph definitions
Greetings: As I typed a document using the article TextClass, in the second subsection the paragraphs started to indent the first line and to drop the interparagraph spacing. I could not figure out what to do to fix this so I output the file as LateX and looked at it in emacs. I note that before the problem every paragraph was wrapped in {\raggedright ... \par}. Furthermore, there is a \medskip{} before and after all the preceding paragraphs. Why would Lyx stop formating the paragraphs (I have checked that it is still in article TextClass). Thanks in advance for your help. Michelle __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Auctions - buy the things you want at great prices http://auctions.yahoo.com/
