To make LyX files created with the old layout work, you need to open the

- CharStyle:NewThought with NewThought


Very good, I'll find a way to change it at a single blow with  
TextWrangler, I hope.


But that's not all. Some formatations seem not to go, e. g. the  
multicolumn package that I uses to insert a full-width two-colomn parbox  
or minipage with my contact data on the end of an article. But these are  
not necessary for me.


Another transfer problem:

In my immediate try, when opening an elder tufte-handout made LyX file,  
there are stopping errors (the pdf in LyX tmp insufficiently made); but  
when copying the whole content of one of these files to your new  
handout-sample.lyx file, it works. This would mean laborious transition  
work.


In case, that you get another idea for that or how to avoid it, let it

Tell me, if I shall send you an real file LyX file (of 2, 3 pages), made

tufte-handout.layout outdated

Big problem for me, but also for the next release of LyX:

tufte-book.layout - works well,
tufte-handout.layout doesn't work with actual release of Tufte (2009 May  
17)


Please watch, Uwe, Jürgen

While the new tufte-book.layout, created by Uwe Stöhr

- http://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/Tufte-book = Tufte-book proposal … for the  
layout file where less ERT needs to be used -


works well with the the actual release of tufte-latex  
(http://code.google.com/p/tufte-latex/downloads/list) the vanguard  
tufte-handout.layout, produced kindly by Jürgen Spitzmüller almost one  
year ago

= http://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/Tufte-handout,
does no longer work well with the actual release of tufte-handout.cls (and  
tufte-common.sty). There are uncountable latex errors with it and Lyx  
refuses to offer the pdf-latex view. Though in the the tmp dir I find one,  
more or less usable on my superficial look, but: without the bibliography  
and citations.

I did it and reported enthused success.

But when I then started to work again with my numerous tufte-handout  
LyX-files, produced until no: not one is processed well any more.


Obviously the LyX tufte-handout.layout is outdated!
I don't wonder about that: as I have seen, the Tufte-LateX developers have  
changed to put the main processing into a tufte-common.sty file (in  
future: -.def) and only some special cls-commands in both …book.cls and  
…handout.cls. But I am not able to produce a new LyX-layout for handout.


What shall I do now? Hope I can reestablish the old depreciated  
tufte-handout.cls from 2008 may (or november at the latest) to be able to  
run my produced and make new ones in LyX (I had backed-up the old  
handout.cls).


Or, given that the tufte-book.layout »will be included in the next LyX

Spitzmüller produced the old one in a fly in the train …

very fine!

Already done. Just to give you a first response:

Your new handout layout file works more or less with the original  
sample-handout.lyx (provided once with Jürgen's old tufte-handout.layout  
on http://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/Tufte-handout).


More or less, because some formatations - as »newthought«, »ALL CAPS«,  
»FULL CAPITAL LETTERS, and »SmallCaps« {character style  
(Edit-TextStyle-SmallCaps)} are marked red and partly as undefined in  
the LyX window already and appeare in normal character stile in the  
produced pdf.


But:
With my self-produced LyX-files on basis of the old tufte-handout.cls and  
-.layout your new .layout unfortunately does not work yet, but I have to  
test it further with faked ones, because in the real ones I have some  
additions in the preamble (and special formatations within the documents)  
which might be excluded already in the new tufte-handout.cls (and  
-common.sty) and not because of your new .layout file.


The problem is, that I have to exchange everytime the files in  
LyX1.6/layouts and ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/tufte-latex/ to test it,  
continuing with my work on my existing LyX files on basis of the old  
handout cls and layout. But I will try out more.

This is because the new layout file is incompatible with the old one. One reason is to overcome the 
problems you noticed with the old version. Another one is to have one basic layout for both tufte 
document classes. (The handout call is basically the same as the book class with only a few changes.)

tufte-handout.layout doesn't work with actual release of Tufte (2009 May 
17)


The next version doesn't use this layout file version but this one:
http://www.lyx.org/trac/export/31790/lyx-devel/branches/BRANCH_1_6_X/lib/layouts/tufte-handout.layout

Can you please test it out? (To get it work you need to have my tufte-book.layout file is the same 
folder as the tufte-handout.layout.)


thanks in advance and regards
Uwe

very fine!

Already done. Just to give you a first response:

Your new handout layout file works more or less with the original  
sample-handout.lyx (provided once with Jürgen's old tufte-handout.layout  
on http://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/Tufte-handout).


More or less, because some formatations - as »newthought«, »ALL CAPS«,  
»FULL CAPITAL LETTERS, and »SmallCaps« {character style  
(Edit->TextStyle->SmallCaps)} are marked red and partly as "undefined" in  
the LyX window already and appeare in normal character stile in the  
produced pdf.


But:
With my self-produced LyX-files on basis of the old tufte-handout.cls and  
-.layout your new .layout unfortunately does not work yet, but I have to  
test it further with faked ones, because in the real ones I have some  
additions in the preamble (and special formatations within the documents)  
which might be excluded already in the new tufte-handout.cls (and  
-common.sty) and not because of your new .layout file.


The problem is, that I have to exchange everytime the files in  
LyX1.6/layouts and ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/tufte-latex/ to test it,  
continuing with my work on my existing LyX files on basis of the old  
handout cls and layout. But I will try out more.


Goutgaun!

This is because the new layout file is incompatible with the old one. One reason is to overcome the 
problems you noticed with the old version. Another one is to have one basic layout for both tufte 
document classes. (The handout call is basically the same as the book class with only a few changes.)


To make LyX files created with the old layout work, you need to open the LyX file with a text editor 
and replace

- "CharStyle:SmallCaps" with "SmallCaps"
- "CharStyle:AllCaps" with AllCaps
- "CharStyle:NewThought" with "NewThought"

All future versions of the layout file will be compatible with the current 
layout.

Btw. there is of course also an actual example file:
