Also besser gesagt, ganze Tabellen. Wenn ich die Tabelle kopiere und in einer Lyx-Tabelle einfügen möchte, dann werden alle Daten in eine Zelle kopiert. Wie schaffe ich es, dass Zelle für Zelle kopiert wird? Vielen Dank im Voraus für Ihre Antwort! Ich spreche nicht Deutsch, so die Antwort ist in Englisch. Verwenden Sie Microsoft Bing Language Tools (http://www.microsofttranslator.com) oder Google Translate (http://translate.google.com), um eine Übersetzung zu erhalten. I do not speak german, so the answer is in English. Use Microsoft Bing language tools (http://www.microsofttranslator.com) or Google Translate (http://translate.google.com) to get a translation. The question was basically: How do I import tables from Excel into Lyx. When I copypaste directly, it all goes in one cell. To import a table in LyX, you have to use the Import submenu of the File menu. There, you can import a CSV file (comma-separated values) which Excel can write. This will create a new LyX file with the table in it. From there you can cut and paste it. I have made an example screencast (see it at http://screencast.com/t/NThmOTBj) that shows the full process of conversion and reformating: 1.. I export the Excel file as a CSV file 2.. I show the resulting CSV file contents 3.. I import the CSV file in LyX 4.. I reformat the table (by default it has no lines) 5.. I change the language of the contents (it may not be the right language by default, which is why the cells have blue-underlined values) 6.. I copy paste the new table in a LyX document Hope this helps. Best regards, Tennessee Carmel-Veilleux, ing. jr.

Problem with label and references
Hello to all. I am writing a book (two sides) on astronomy and navigation with a lot of figures, tables and equations. I don't have any problem to reference in the text to the apropiate labels of figures, tables, equations and chapters, but when I put a label in a section title I have this two errors in the errors window and obviuosly LyX don't produce the dvi output: Error 1: Argument of \...@straight@i has an extra }. \section{Leyes de la fuerza magnética} I've run across a `}' that doesn't seem to match anything. For example, `\def\a#1{...}' and `\a}' would produce this error. If you simply proceed now, the `\par' that I've just inserted will cause me to report a runaway argument that might be the root of the problem. But if your `}' was spurious, just type `2' and it will go away. Error 2: Paragrapgh ended before \...@straight@i was complete. \section{Leyes de la fuerza magnética} I suspect you've forgotten a `}', causing me to apply this control sequence to too much text. How can we recover? My plan is to forget the whole thing and hope for the best.

Problem with label and references
Hello to all. I am writing a book (two sides) on astronomy and navigation with a lot of figures, tables and equations. I don't have any problem to reference in the text to the apropiate labels of figures, tables, equations and chapters, but when I put a label in a section title I have this two errors in the errors window and obviuosly LyX don't produce the dvi output: Error 1: Argument of \...@straight@i has an extra }. \section{Leyes de la fuerza magnética} I've run across a `}' that doesn't seem to match anything. For example, `\def\a#1{...}' and `\a}' would produce this error. If you simply proceed now, the `\par' that I've just inserted will cause me to report a runaway argument that might be the root of the problem. But if your `}' was spurious, just type `2' and it will go away. Error 2: Paragrapgh ended before \...@straight@i was complete. \section{Leyes de la fuerza magnética} I suspect you've forgotten a `}', causing me to apply this control sequence to too much text. How can we recover? My plan is to forget the whole thing and hope for the best. My book begins in the Chapter LXII because is the third of a collection and the sections, figures, tables and equations are numerated acorddly.

XeTeX with LyX
Hi to all. I have XeTeX installed and builded in my MikTex installation but I cannot add a new pdf converter in accord with this instructions from the wiki. Setting up LyX to work with Xetex This assumes you have Xetex installed. On my texlive installation, it was installed automatically. Try running 'xetex' or 'xelatex' to check if its there. If not, install it (depends on your LaTeX distribution). First of all, you need to add a PDF (xetex) File Format and LyX-Xetex conversion: Under Tools-Preferences-File handling-File formats, click New and [x] check Document Format [x] check Vector Graphic Format Short Name: pdf4 Extension: pdf Viewer: xdg-open (Windows users should use pdfview. Alternatively, use any viewer that worked for you under File Format PDF (pdflatex).) Under Converters (just above the File formats you just clicked on), click on add and set From format: LaTeX (pdflatex) To format: PDF (xelatex) Converter: xelatex $$i Extra flag: latex [x] check Enabled There's no problem for me with the first part, but in my Converters window I cannot select the option Add that's she's in gray.

Uwe, in the page 2 you have on top an specific trigonometric example (Blancos) without brackets.

Re: Vertical spacing of matrices
Uwe, thank you very much for your comments about my reply to Luca. In my case I have finished a book about trigonometry with 386 pages and obviously there are a lot of formulas and his deduction. All my problem with the method that I sended is reduced to copy and paste for the tables and matrices with too much rows. Respect to your second kindly comment, in the Spanish Navy Naval Military School (I am Commander in the Spanish Navy, Hydrographer) the brackets are omited in the notation to the half addition or difference of trigonometrical functions because the formula, sin1/2(A+B) in purity is the product of sin1/2 (I suppose in radians) and the addition of the angles A and B (also in radians). But in astronomical navigation this has no sense when we use, normally, the Delambre Analogies for the position triangle calculus, so we omit the brackets.

The trigonometrical functions are the lineal functions in a circle with the radius equal to the unity of mesaure. Then: Sin AM/R=sin a (R = radius) where a is the angle that subtends the AM arch. And also in this case that suffits the space between Sin and AM/R and sin and a to understand correctly the formula. And more, in the trigonometric formulas the strict notation sin(a) is normally not used but sin a, like sin 2a, sin (A+B) and so on, and I think that there aren't confussion about this. And if you type this formulas in LaTeX math mode an aditional space is added between the function and the argument. If you want to search a little that exists more secondary circular functions (due to spanish mariner Mendoza) not used today named Sin v AM (Seno verso), Cos v AM (Coseno verso), and also Ver AM (Verso of AM) or Cov AM (Coverso of AM) and Sub v AM (Subverso of AM).

If you want to search a little that exists more secondary circular functions (due to spanish mariner Mendoza) not used today named "Sin v AM" (Seno verso), "Cos v AM" (Coseno verso), and also "Ver AM" (Verso of AM) or "Cov AM" (Coverso of AM) and "Sub v AM" (Subverso of AM). Without brackets.

There are strict rules in math how to typeset formulas. sin1/2 means sin*1/2 (when the "sin" would not be upright, it would even mean s*i*n*1/2) So "sin" is in your typesetting a variable or an operator but not a function. A function has to have an argument. For arguments round brackets are used: sin(0.5(a+b)) When you have several levels of brackets it is allowed to use brackets for the outer ones: sin[0.5(a+b)] although this is quite unusual. Normally one uses larger round brackets for the outer level and smaller ones for the inner level as explained in LyX's Math manual. Reading sin1/2(a+b) I first thought that you mean sqrt(sin(a+b)) although the 1/2 would then have to be set as superscript. You definitively need a bracket behind sin and the like, no matter where you are working. Math is the same all over the world and it is important that everybody can understand what you are writing. regards Uwe
Re: Vertical spacing of matrices
Without new commands, for matrix you can use the command \vspace like in the attachedd file that presents the Delambre Analogies in a matrix. - Original Message - From: Uwe Stöhr uwesto...@web.de To: Luca Carlon carlon.l...@gmail.com Cc: lyx-users@lists.lyx.org Sent: Thursday, September 10, 2009 7:09 PM Subject: Re: Vertical spacing of matrices Luca Carlon schrieb: I noticed it increses the space for tables in floats too.

What you can do is to define your own short command that you can use before and after the matrices, see the attached file. You can also define two keyboard shortcuts that inserts these commands. regards Uwe Analogias_Delambre_Matriz.lyx Description: application/lyx

Re: Layout problem ... text/footnotes overrunning page numbers
Hello Andrej. Can you send us a sample (your LyX file) for analize your problem? - Original Message - From: Andrej andrej.gro...@gmail.com To: lyx-users@lists.lyx.org Sent: Wednesday, August 05, 2009 4:13 AM Subject: Layout problem ... text/footnotes overrunning page numbers Hi, I'm no good at (La)TeX, so I'm not certain I'm even using the right terminology.
