Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,

ich sitze zur Zeit an meiner Bachelorarbeit und versuche Messdaten, welche
ich in Excel bearbeitet habe in Lyx zu importieren. 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.

MinionPro

2010-07-18 Thread Yago
I have the file MinionPro.sty installed in C:\Archivos de programa\MiKTeX 
2.8\tex\latex\MinionPro, joint with all .fd files and other .sty files 
associated with this package. Also there are this files in my texmf tree:

.enc files in C:\Archivos de programa\MiKTeX 2.8\dvips\MinionPro
.map files in C:\Archivos de programa\MiKTeX 2.8\fonts\map\dvips\MinionPro
.tfm files in C:\Archivos de programa\MiKTeX 2.8\fonts\tfm\adobe\MinionPro
.pfb files in C:\Archivos de programa\MiKTeX 2.8\fonts\type1\adobe\MinionPro
.vf files in C:\Archivos de programa\MiKTeX 2.8\fonts\vf\adobe\MinionPro

In my updmap.cfg file there exists one line with,

Map MinionPro.map

Yes, after the installation of all files I ran texhash and updmap in a DOS 
commands window.

And, finally, LyX recognizes the MinionPro.sty file because this file appears 
in the list of .sty files in ToolsTeX information.

My problem is that when I try to view a simple document with my Yap DVI viewer 
that appears an error message like this:

LaTeX error: File `MinionPro.sty´ not found
*** (cannot \read from terminal in nonstop modes)

In the preamble of the document, article class, that exists one line with:

\usepackage{MinionPro}

So, I don't understand nothing. Any help, please?

Re: MinionPro

Does 'kpsewhich MinionPro.sty' (at a DOS prompt) find it?  And have you 
double-checked the spelling in the preamble just to be sure you didn't 
accidentally misspell MinionPro?  (You might try retyping it in case some 
unprintable character snuck in.)

As others have suggested...
for low learning curve: stencil sets and pen/paper + a scanner
for quick but limited computer aided drawing including circuits: dia [can 
export to TeX with
pstricks or one of the image formats]



for computer aided schematics (2D circuit diagrams): gschem from the gEDA

under RHEL/CentOS after you have enabled the EPEL repository it is only a 
`yum install geda-gschem`
away. I also suggest installing geda-docs.
AFAIK it is also in fedora in these packages.
It took a couple of hours to get fairly comfortable with it for me, but I 
had not used a circuit
editor before, only DIA and a couple of CAD programs.

As others have suggested...
for low learning curve: stencil sets and pen/paper + a scanner
for quick but limited computer aided drawing including circuits: dia [can 
export to TeX with
pstricks or one of the image formats]



for computer aided schematics (2D circuit diagrams): gschem from the gEDA 
set of tools [output to an
image format]
under RHEL/CentOS after you have enabled the EPEL repository it is only a 
`yum install geda-gschem`
away. I also suggest installing geda-docs.
AFAIK it is also in fedora in these packages.
It took a couple of hours to get fairly comfortable with it for me, but I 
had not used a circuit
editor before, only DIA and a couple of CAD programs.

Problem with label and references

2010-04-02 Thread Yago
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. So, in my 
preamble I have this first command:

\setcounter{chapter}{61}

In addition, I need to enumerate the sections in the form 6601, 6602,

Re: name on footer

In addition of fancyhdr package, you have the package titlesec with the 
[pagestyles] option. This is a sample:


In the preamble:

\usepackage[pagestyles]{titlesec}

\newpagestyle{main}{\headrule\sethead[\thepage][book 
title][]{}{\chaptertitle}{\thepage}\setfoot[][your name][]{}{your name}{}}

\assignpagestyle{\chapter}{main}

\pagestyle{main}



Also you can use the AddToShipoutPicture command from the package eso-pic 
(you will need the package graphicx in your preamble).




See the documentation for titlesec and eso-pic. And the documentation for 
fancyhdr.

Re: Lining up text and graphics in tables?

Hello.

See the attached files lyx and tex. I began with the tex file and then this

Ugh!

I wanted rows with 3 columns. Column 1 is the name of the graphic. Column 
2 is

the graphic itself. Column 3 is a short explanation of the graphic. I used
individual 1 row, 3 column tables to save room and make sure pages broke
reasonably.

Trouble is, no matter how I set cell alignment in any of the columns, the
graphic always rises to the top, and the text (in other columns/cells mind
you) always starts just below where the graphic ends, thereby costing a 
lot of

space, looking ugly, and causing confusion.

Does anyone have an idea how to get the graphic and text to line up 
correctly,

vertically, within their respective cells? Does anyone have any idea what
would cause the behavior I describe?

Thanks

XeTeX with LyX

2009-12-14 Thread Yago
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.

Yago and Charles,
 Thanks for your help. I think I'll need something more refined, though.

 The footnotemark effectively appears white, now. However, it appears 
white

both in the text and in the actual footnote.
 The background is colored where the footnotemark is placed in the text, 
but at
the bottom of the page, where footnote appears, the background is white, 
so I

need regular black text.
 Is there a way to use different colors for the footnotemark for the text 
and

the footnote?

Miguel

Look the paragraph on footnotes in the KomaScript documentation.

Yago and Charles,
 Thanks for your help. I think I'll need something more refined, though.

 The footnotemark effectively appears white, now. However, it appears 
white

both in the text and in the actual footnote.
 The background is colored where the footnotemark is placed in the text, 
but at
the bottom of the page, where footnote appears, the background is white, 
so I

need regular black text.
 Is there a way to use different colors for the footnotemark for the text 
and

the footnote?

Turn on the math toolbars. You can then pick symbols from toolbar menus. 
 Learn the codes for those you use most often, that way you can type 
them faster than picking from menus. For example, \geq (or \geqslant ) 
to get

greater-or-equal signs.

Uwe, in the page 2 you have on top an specific trigonometric example 
(Blancos) without brackets. And more, when I say that the brackets are no 
necessary is because LaTeX add a little space between the function and his 
argument. So the reality is that LaTeX don't type,


cos2vt

but,

cos 2vt

with a little more space after cos and this is very comprehensive for 
everybody.


Please don't mention me the Wikipedia because this resource isn't at all a

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.

Uwe thank you any other time for your comments, but I think you are wrong 
about the strict rules to typeset  formulas, at least in the trigonometric 
formulas. For example when you say,


(when the sin would not be upright, it would even mean s*i*n*1/2)

you don't remember the lineal functions (archs) in a circle that are typed 
with the first letter upright, like this:


Sin AM

without brackets; a little more space between Sin and AM is all that it 
is needed. 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

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.

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.


I created a little article (a paper for a Linux course I'm tutoring)
using LyX, and
over all the results are great. My only problem is that the text on
several pages
runs over the page number.  What do I need to change to stop this?

I've tried both article, article (KOMA script), book, letter (w/ and w/o 
koma),

always with similar results.



Cheers,
Andrej

Re: Subheading numbering

You need the titlesec package in your preamble, and after that this command:

\titlelabel{\thetitle.\quad}

Subject: Subheading numbering


 Is there a way to change the way Lyx/Latex numbers subheading, so that 
 instead of
 1 Introduction
 it sill produce: 1. Introduction?
 In other words, how do I produce a period following the last digit of a 
 subheading number?
 Thanks,
