To help anyone else with equivalent strangeness (for the record), I was able to resolve the error using the following method of debugging: 1. Create a totally new LyX document 2.

Test render (result = fail) 9. Delete portions of the content until isolating the cause, which was some language/style related commands that were previously prerequisites for functional multilingual rendering with proper fonts and may have been related to the legacy preamble. After some experimenting with the recent builds (now LyX 2.0.0 RC2) the language setting is not required for rendering properly, only setting a text-style per foreign language section, plus ensuring some equivalent preamble to set the font. (Originally I had to do both!) I now have a document that correctly mixes Chinese, English, Greek and will render out to PDF. UTF-16 warnings remain but do not appear to affect the output. Thus far I have been unable to get Farsi text to render out correctly, but have not spent too much time on the problem. - Walter
Timeline generation
Hi all,
Does anyone have a good solution to generate timelines?
Features that are required:
- Allows marking of both specific events ("point in time") and
periods ("range in time")
Features that are highly desired:
- Properly functional unicode support (right to left support not
required at this stage, but otherwise font switching for arbitrary
languages)
Features that would be a bonus:
- Handles the case of 'so many elements you'd be lucky to get them to
fit on a page' elegantly (eg: by scaling layout down to a minimum
threshold size for legibility, then page-splitting)
- Accepts input as a simply delimited text file (ala graphviz .dot
files or mscgen .msc files)
Any recommendations would be appreciated.
I have seen a few non-LyX specific solutions already but they all seem
to lack what I want. Having said that, if all else fails I suppose I
could try to write one (with only required features), maybe call it
'escgen' (event sequent chart generator) in deference to its high
quality predecessor. However, it seems like a good example in raw TeX
would be enough for me to get some macros going and a more elegant
solution (ie: no need to re-implement unicode font support, no need to
step out to an external generation/update process). Could anyone point
one out?

It definitely is not easy to get 100% right, 80% would be interesting enough. I disagree on the desktop search bit, that is mostly helpful if you know a lot about the document you are looking for.

This is a good idea however it is not nearly as flexible as the established and
proven BiBTeX approach, ie: the storage of dictionaries in external dictionary
files that can be linked to documents on a many-to-many basis. This
approach facilitates control for the user ("my physics dictionary", "my
history dictionary", "my computer science dictionary") without making
unnecessary assumptions about the similarity of ALL documents that a
user edits or the number of such domains in which a user actively writes.

This is my suggestion and the only way I can see LyX providing a
competent and future-proof solution for spell checking.
Did your research reveal which interface(s) did or did not support
this approach?
This seems a legitimate need that should be pushed upstream if unavailable
in hunspell and enchant. Enchant seems the sort of project where
implementing a costly emulation layer against backends missing this
support may occur "for free", at least in terms of the LyX project's developer
time, if a request is acknowledged. The motivation for enchant's developers
is that this would further assist the enchant project to differentiate enchant's
API/ABI from hunspell's API/ABI in the eyes of application developers,
since hunspell seems to be rapidly subsuming prior systems and value of
the enchant layer is therefore decreasing for some development scenarios.
In addition, enchant probably already has code to read/write external
dictionary files of the sort suggested ("my dictionary"...) and
could expose an API/ABI for doing so that LyX could easily utilise. Any
functionality identified as missing may be enthusiastically implemented
by the enchant developers.
Hell, they might even extend their scope slightly to throw in some
critical functions for language detection! (Indeed, on the fact of it it would
seem that there is little point in adding any such code to LyX vs. enchant,
a cross-platform library that already provides concurrent access to
multiple spellchecking engine's dictionaries. Do one thing and do it well,
the KISS principle?)
Sorry I do not have time to go back and snip all of this, I have been typing
and researching the above since before the dawn (sunrise over Los
Angeles is surprisingly beautiful!) and am now running late for work!
Very keen to hear thoughts...

Great, as long as the personal dictionary "in" the document is saved "outside" the document and as a file that can be: a) shared between multiple documents b) used with zero or more additional personal dictionaries within a single file c) identified as the target dictionary (vs. other active personal dictionaries) when spell-checking the document and adding words to personal dictionaries - Walter
Subject: LyX 2.0beta3: Spell Checking + Multilingualism
at present. Now, I see the adoption of XeTeX-specific checkboxes in LyX 2.0beta1 as a *great* step forward in this direction, but "there's a ways to go yet". As per previous posts whereby I suggested revising the user interface to make proper use of available databases and let the user assign fonts to unicode blocks and/or languages and/or custom defined text-types for font selection purposes, a forward-looking, integrated solution should also take in to account spellchecker requirements. Otherwise, we poor users are laboured with having to make 1000 manual markups just to include a short bit of text! This is exemplified if, for instance, one wishes to quote a place name with translations and their romanised equivalents in situ at many points throughout a document (my unfortunate situation, and before anyone asks: no I cannot switch to compiling a reference table, for reasons of readership and readability) In summary, a short list of user-side 'wants' for such a future upgrade to multilingual support would be: - works with unicode TeX systems (XeTeX) - works with TTF - provides dialog based font selection (see previous post) - provides dialog based language selection (see previous post) - does not require duplicate language markup for the font subsystem and the spellchecker subsystem - upgrades the spellchecker subsystem to be more multilingual aware Please do reference the previous message which included a UI mockup for further details on the proposed genre of solution: http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg83635.html http://pratyeka.org/unicode-font-mockup.png (hosted copy of mockup) 4. Weird behaviour with common prefixes and specialist compounds [X] - Common prefixes such as micro and proto seem to confuse aspell. Not sure if this is somehow related to how it is linked from LyX, but I assume the issue is with them. For example, 'proto-' does not seem to be accepted, forcing 'proto' to be added manually as a valid word. Unfortunately, the LyX interface does not offer a proper workaround. (Please see point 5.) (Note: Upon further investigation, actually a lot of words appear to be missing from the default dictionary, including "hewn", "proven", "romanised". A scrabble player would be dismayed: for many points!) (PS: Did anyone ever wonder about the etymology of 'hardscrabble'? I think aspell's default English dictionary could be involved in at least one definition...) 5. Right sidebar spellchecker interface: word addition [*] --- At various points throughout my document I use accepted phrases within the sphere of my writing such as "Proto-Austro-Tai" and "Tai-Kadai". Whilst "Tai" and "Kadai" are also used as individual words, "Proto" and "Austro" are not. With the present spellchecker interface, when such 'word portions' occur, I am only given two options: 1. Adding these 'word portions' as words in their own right 2. Ignoring them as words in their own right Both options are less than ideal because they will subsequently allow the individual words to occur alone, ie: such that human input could conceivably render "Come hither, pronto!" as "Come hither, proto!" and the spellchecker would consider this to be correct, despite the fact that proto should possibly not occur as a word in its own right. (OK well that's probably arguable, but you still see the point!) The best option for resolving this would be to modify the LyX spellchecker sidebar interface to allow adding arbitrary words or entire words rather than simply word portions thereof that have been identified by aspell as unknown. (ie: When presented with "Proto-Austro-Tai", and "Proto" is highlighted, then the user should be able to add "Proto-Austro-Tai" as a word in its own right rather than only the 'word portion' "Proto" itself.) (If I recall, 'other' word processing solutions include this feature.) 6. Dictionary Re-Use Support [*] - Another point is that of re-use. Which is to say that, when someone uses for example 'BibTeX' to compile a biliographic database, that database may easily be used with other projects and is considered portable. So for all physics papers I can use one bibliography, and I may have another for history papers. Whilst this is presently handled adequately by LyX, the equivalent functionality is not present for dictionary databases. It should be. This means both adding a

Realised the latter point is possibly because LyX cannot assume that the local TeX processing environment includes XeTeX. However, it would be nice to auto-detect. In my particular situation on Gentoo my system is set up exclusively with UTF8-enabled locales, so the lyx package installation process should probably set intelligent defaults. I have filed a bug for this @ http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=344509 Still no idea how to get this working... - Walter
Foreign Language Support + Font Setup
Hi there, I am a recent convert to LyX, currently using v1.6.5 on Gentoo Linux. It's been working quite alright, though I now have a need for some pretty heavy duty multilingual text in a single document, specifically at least Burmese, Chinese, Lao, Thai and Vietnamese in addition to English, French and German, and this is causing a huge headache. My problem at present is that if I type Chinese characters in to my document, and the Document > Settings > Language > Encoding options is set to something other than 'Unicode (XeTeX) (utf8)', then attempting to view the document as PDF generates a LaTeX error. Yesterday I spent a fair amount of time going back and forth between the Unicode page (http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Unicode) and other web CJK / TeX resources trying to solve the problem, but have thus far had no luck. A lot of the resources mentioned 'old' font processing techniques (using fontforge?), and the path /usr/share/texmf/fonts/ however I found that entering font names from there did not seem to work, and my distribution's Cyberbit and some other mentioned fonts are TTF only, installing in to /usr/share/fonts instead. Turning to command line foo, I found that 'lyx -dbg font' told me that the location of fonts being accessed on program startup was in fact /usr/share/lyx/fonts: Setting debug level to font Debugging `font' (Font handling) GuiFontLoader.cpp(209): Adding font /usr/share/lyx/fonts//cmex10.ttf OK GuiFontLoader.cpp(209): Adding font /usr/share/lyx/fonts//cmmi10.ttf OK GuiFontLoader.cpp(209): Adding font /usr/share/lyx/fonts//cmr10.ttf OK GuiFontLoader.cpp(209): Adding font /usr/share/lyx/fonts//cmsy10.ttf OK GuiFontLoader.cpp(209): Adding font /usr/share/lyx/fonts//eufm10.ttf OK GuiFontLoader.cpp(209): Adding font /usr/share/lyx/fonts//msam10.ttf OK GuiFontLoader.cpp(209): Adding font /usr/share/lyx/fonts//msbm10.ttf OK GuiFontLoader.cpp(209): Adding font /usr/share/lyx/fonts//wasy10.ttf OK GuiFontLoader.cpp(209): Adding font /usr/share/lyx/fonts//esint10.ttf OK This would appear to be an entirely different path to the rest of my system, which uses /usr/share/fonts, and an entirely different path to /usr/share/texmf/fonts/ I am appealing for help with getting arbitrary fonts to display (including, if possible, Thai/Lao/Burmese style combining glyphs) in my output as I do not wish or have time to become an expert in the historical inadequacies of font formats, their various commercial restrictions, format conversions, the evolution of TeX or LyX, or the reason why LyX has not yet moved to the otherwise universal default of utf8 for everything. - Walter

Unavailable document classes
Hello, I'm a somewhat infrequent user of LyX on Mac OS X. About every other update (my current version is 1.6.1), most of the document classes become unavailable. That is LyX can edit documents in them, but not produce output. How do I prevent this from happening? This is an exceedingly annoying 'feature' of LyX. Regards, Walter

Re: Including a full-page postscript file
Ok, I've more or less sorted it out. I installed the chngpage package
and added Evil Red Text surrounding the figure inside the float.
The LaTeX produced is:

\begin{figure*}[h]
\begin{center}\begin{adjustwidth}{-4em}{-4em}\includegraphics[
angle=270,
origin=c]{slide2}\end{adjustwidth}\end{center}

The two adjustwidth commands are what did it; once I expanded the
margins the centering worked as designed :)
I'd still like to know if there's an easier way, say
\includepage{page.ps}
or similar, but this has solved my problem for the present.
Hope this helps someone,

Including a full-page postscript file
G'day,
I'm having some trouble including a full page postscript file as one of
the pages in my LyX document. I want to include the output of another
program as a PS or EPS file, as a page in my document. I'd just print
them out separately, but then I'd mess up the page numbering.
I've read most the the user guide and done a stack of searches for LyX
and LaTeX ways to do this, including various floats, minipages and
figures. The problem I always get is that the figure will be pushed off
to the right hand side of the page. Setting the alignment of the figure
in a float to left, or setting the alignment of the paragraph to left
doesn't seem to make much difference.
The LaTeX produced by LyX for the relevant page looks like this:
\subsection{Context Diagram}
\begin{flushleft}%
\begin{figure*}
\begin{flushleft}\includegraphics[ angle=270,
origin=lt]{slide2}\end{flushleft}
\end{figure*}
\end{flushleft}
\newpage
The original PS file is full page A4 landscape, so I've rotated it.
I think I've tried most of the possible permutations of figure
inclusion, page layout and alignment, and I've really run out of ideas,
but it seems like this should be possible.
Does anyone know how I could go about doing this?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Len
