Re: Using ACM and APA styles in LyX?

2007-02-12 Thread B. Bogart
Thanks,

I checked out the link and was unable to get the instructions to work,
since the directions for where to put the sig-alternate.cls file don't
match my directory structure (there is no 'Base' directory where there
should be).

I can't get LyX to see my texlive stuff, if I hack the acmlayout file to
refer to the acmtrans2e class LyX says that the class is unknown, but
it is listed on the text info gui. Ah, I suppose textclass and
documentclass are different things.

Can someone suggest a howto on creating lyX layouts? (what extra choices
are made in these layouts that are not in the document class? Can't they
be auto generated from the document classes on a system?)

At this rate I'll have to use openoffice and the acm word template. :(

Thanks all for your help.

 Hi Richard,

 I changed from tetex to texlive but I'm not seeing any change in the
 document classes I see in lyx.
 
 I am guessing you do not have a ACM layout file for lyx. The layout file
 tells lyx how to interpret the LaTeX style file. This is a part of LyX,
 but as there are many LaTeX stylefiles, not all have had their layout
 file written.  Googling on 'acm layout lyx' I found this site:
 http://www.ece.iit.edu/~jgrad/lyx/
 
 Which have a layout file for acm. Install the layout file and
 reconfigure LyX and you should have a working acm layout.

I do not use TeXLiVE, but in my last reply I guessed that the you had

The basics is that it is not important where you put the stylefile
(.sty/.cls) is as long as it is in the LaTeX tree. And you need to run
sudo texhash afterwards so LaTeX know that you have put something new
there...

 I can't get LyX to see my texlive stuff, if I hack the acmlayout
 to file refer to the acmtrans2e class LyX says that the class
 is unknown, but it is listed on the text info gui. Ah, I suppose
 textclass and documentclass are different things.

Is the text info a misspelled tex info, as in Tools-Tex Info ? If
your style is listed here, LaTeX recognise it, and your problem is in
the way you have modified the Layout file...

Do I understand you right when I guess you do not want to use the
sig-alernate.cls, but need to use the acmtrans2e.cls ? In this post
from 2001 Roberto Marabini take a stepwise transformation of the
article.layout to an acmtrans2e.layout for tetex. As we have covered

I am afraid that .layout files must be handwritten. It is not difficult,
but you need to understand how LyX and LaTeX interacts as this file
describes this interaction. It is therfore put in the Help file:
Customizing LyX: Features for the Advanced User, Chapter 5.2 Layouts.
that comes with LyX.

Well, that would be up to you of course :). However, eventhough LyX
might have a steep learningcurve I have never encountered anyone that
have regretted learning it. And even an elephant are eaten a mouthfull

Re: Using ACM and APA styles in LyX?

2007-02-05 Thread Richard Heck

The only classes you'll see in LyX itself are ones for which there are
layouts. To use the ACM class from LyX, you'll have to find or produce a
layout for it. Someone may have one, but one doesn't ship with LyX.

Steve Litt has a lot of experience with layouts. It's not terribly,
terribly hard to do, but it takes some work.

 As for references, natbib isn't a bibliography style but something more

Re: Using ACM and APA styles in LyX?

2007-01-29 Thread Richard Heck

LyX does have an APA layout, so you should be able to use it. Check to
make sure you do have the APA document class installed and that LaTeX
can see it (run texhash as root) and then reconfigure LyX (Tools 
Reconfigure). You can use Tools  Tex Info to check what LyX thinks is
there.

I don't see an ACM layout. Anybody got one? It's unlikely it'd be hard
to create one if not.

As for references, natbib isn't a bibliography style but something more
general. You can use apalike with it, to be sure. You can also use
apacite by itself (and the apa.layout file seems to load apacite.sty,
which you'd also want). Just choose default for your citation style
and then, when you put the bibliography in its place (Insert  List
Bibliography), choose apacite as your style. Of course, you'll need
to make sure that's installed, too.
