Build errors eliminated by re-installing TeXLive2023 from its last update in
October 2023. But, still have the header/footer issue.
Attached is lee-mwe.lyx. It has paper format USletter, page layout style
plain, two-sided printing, and language encoding unicode (UTF8) which
removed the error messages while producing pdflatex output because, for some
reason, latin9 language encoding seems to be hard-wired into all documents.
As a KOMA-Script report using \pagestyle[scrheadings] with the header and
footer text specified only the header text (and no separating horizontal
line) is in the output. All this used to put the header and footer text, and
the page number in the footer center, with separating lines.
Where do I look for the reason it stopped working?

Unfortunately, that fixed providing header and footer text and page numbers
but greatly increased the margins. BTW, this doc was letter size to begin;
using default margins the text area was very small. Setting the margins to
0.5 in (and inner to 0.75 in) provided the expected text area size. When
trying to compile the MWE with lipsum[] text is when the error appeared.
Now, I'm getting build errors (after hitting a LyX bug that was not

Well, I'm totally confused. I saved this document as mwe2.lyx, stripped all
but the first page, added the lipsum package, saved, and compiled. Now this
mwe2.pdf has the header text but only a horizontal line at the footer.
mwe2.lyx attached.
This all used to work and I've no idea what's changed. I do need to get this
resolved ASAP as I have a client who needs to submit these docs to
regulators for permit approvals.
BTW, reading the KOMA-Script manual from a year ago I don't see what's

Where else might there be a difference? I'm not seeing it in the settings.

Re: String including \rightarrow works unless with other text
On Tue, 2 Jan 2024, Paul Rubin wrote: Neither displays correctly for me. The issue is that you are inserting the arrow as LaTeX without invoking math mode (at least in mwe2; in mwe it's not even LaTeX). So the compiler guesses where to begin and end math mode, and it does not guess correctly. (Quoth the LaTeX log: "I've inserted a begin-math/end-math symbol since I think you left one out. Proceed, with fingers crossed.") The simple fix is to insert the arrows using math model (ctrl-M), as in the attached version of your second example. Paul, I saw that but missed the point that I needed to use math mode rather than plain LaTeX/ERT.

The issue is that you are inserting the arrow as LaTeX without invoking math mode (at least in mwe2; in mwe it's not even LaTeX). So the compiler guesses where to begin and end math mode, and it does not guess correctly. (Quoth the LaTeX log: "I've inserted a begin-math/end-math symbol since I think you left one out. Proceed, with fingers crossed.") The simple fix is to insert the arrows using math model (ctrl-M), as in the attached version of your second example.

String including \rightarrow works unless with other text
I'm puzzled. In a document I display a series using \rightarrow to separate
the components. When I compile the document it displays as in the attached
mwe2.lyx file. When the string is by itself (mwe.lyx) it displays properly.
I suspect it's a matter of spacing but I haven't figured out where.
Help's needed.

Navigate back was implemented so it reminds `` in vim. It does not work well
though and I was thinking several times to transform it to vim's g; indeed,
just never got enough time :)

It’s nice to know I’m not the only one! I guess the number of editing tricks I
miss isn’t even that large. I would like to be able to select, change, and
delete around a word and a sentence, like I can in Vim. And to do a ‘light
speed’ jump to any part of the visible text by typing some shortcut and then
typing the first two letters of the word I want to jump to; in Vim, and in
Obsidian (using a plugin) the matches are then marked with a letter, and
hitting that letter takes me there. On top of that, going back and forward
through the locations where my cursor has been placed, and like you say,
persistent undo would be wonderful.
I have no idea how to do this in LFUN, and no time, frankly, to figure out if
that is even possible.
I now find myself reverting to Obsidian or Vim to write longer copy, which is
less than ideal.

In the case of Emacs, there is the file emacs.bind, which implements some of the Emacs key bindings. The problem with vi is the modes, which would take work to implement. But you could certainly implement some kind of 'trigger' keystroke (something you don't use much, say the pipe), and then implement some vi key bindings as key sequences. I.e., in effect the pipe would 'switch modes' momentarily. This would not work well for character-type navigation, but for other commands it might work. It may be that the things some key bindings do is not yet implemented. But you can do a lot with sequences of LyX commands (via the command-sequence LFUN).

R. H., to answer your question directly, yes I miss them :). I am used to Vim,
and I often wish I could use Vim-like features in LyX. e.g., I love using 'g;'
in Vim. I think the first 'g;' in LyX can be down with "Navigate back" ('Ctrl +
shift + <' or something like that) but I would love to go through the entire
change list as quickly as with 'g;'.
Also, I've requested persistent undo (https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/12578),
which I've gotten used to in Vim.
I imagine Emacs users have similar desires to use Emacs features in LyX.
That said, without considerable work, I don't see it happening in LyX anytime
soon.

Try selecting the subscript text and using the text style tool (or Edit

"default". When I do this, the subscript text gets bigger in the GUI but
appears subscript size in the PDF output.

Two body text type environment
I use the KOMA-Script classes. For regulatory compliance reports I need to include each specific regulatory requirement followed by how the project complies with it. I want the two sections to appear differently, perhaps the regulatory requirement in an emphasized font and the compliance section in a Roman font. I've not found a package that allows me to do this. So far I'll set the whole body text in the Standard environment, then change one section (each piece separately) using Edit -> Type style -> Customized. It's a rather inefficient PITA.

Re: Rotate text
Hello Carlos. To rotate a text in the middle of a paragraph go to Document->Settings->Modules. In there add a module called GraphicBoxes. Afterwards go to Insert->Custom Insets and click on RotateBox. Now there should be an inset layout with an argument titled "angle". In the argument write the desired angle that you want the text to be rotated, and inside the layout itself the text to be rotated. For more information and examples you can read section 5.8.1. of the Embedded Objects guide, which you can find in Help-> Embedded Object.

The reason is that it is not easy for LyX to guess what follows. With a
character, a space needs to be inserted to terminate the command, but
with another command, this space must be omitted as it would result in
a real space. Braces work in both cases.
Note though that forthcoming LyX 2.4 will be smarter and output, with
your example:
{\Large\textsl{Here is some long long long and even longer text that
spans multiple lines of a paragraph in large size and slanted
style.}}{\Large\par}
There is also a reason for size switches coming before font style
markup. I can't remember the details now but this is the only order
that works in all cases.

PLEASE bottom post in the future.
The difference between \large with a lower case "L" and \Large with a
capital "L" comes down to whether you choose "Large" (the former) or
"Larger" (the latter) in the font dialog.
As far as how the braces are placed, I don't think there is any way to

As I suspected, the issue is that the text you are formatting occurs at
the very end of a paragraph. The following is a bit "hacky" but solves
the problem. First, add a space after the end of the text. Then select
the text (excluding that extra space) and make the style change. The
trailing space on the first line is harmless, but feel free to delete it
if you wish.

Re: Paste text with italics
Install the Writer-to-Latex module/package or whatever it is called.
That exports the whole file to LaTeX keeping more than just Italic.
Then you tex2lyx it and copy/paste from the document resulting.
When exporting switch to "Ultra Clean" and experiment with the other
option.

As Scott pointed out, right now it's not possible on a direct way,
but you can use LibreOffice's own tools to "tag" text in italic and
then use the "paste as LaTeX" option on LyX. It goes like this:
- On Writer, make a copy of the document (don't work on the original!)
- Open the search and replace tool (Ctrl-H)
- On the Search box, write the following, complete with parenthesis:
(.*)
- With the cursor still on the search box, enable "Regular
Expressions" and, under Format, select Italics (you'll see the word
Italic bellow the search box)
- On the Replace box, write \emph{$1}
- Replace
You'll see that all the italic text will be surrounded with the
\emph{·} tag. Now, you can copy the text to the clipboard and go to
LyX → Edit → Paste Special → Paste as LaTeX.
Of course, for short texts it's not worth doing all that, but for longer
texts, it works pretty well.
Cool idea, Ricardo! This way is better than exporting/importing HTML
in the sense that you will only get the \emph part formatted.
Exporting and importing the HTML might give a bunch of different
formatting that is not desired.

Thanks to you both, this method works like a charm. I was thinking about

Cool idea, Ricardo! This way is better than exporting/importing HTML in the
sense that you will only get the \emph part formatted. Exporting and importing
the HTML might give a bunch of different formatting that is not desired.

As Scott pointed out, right now it's not possible on a direct way, but you
can use LibreOffice's own tools to "tag" text in italic and then use the
"paste as LaTeX" option on LyX. It goes like this:
- On Writer, make a copy of the document (don't work on the original!)
- Open the search and replace tool (Ctrl-H)
- On the Search box, write the following, complete with parenthesis: (.*)
- With the cursor still on the search box, enable "Regular Expressions"
and, under Format, select Italics (you'll see the word Italic bellow the
search box)
- On the Replace box, write \emph{$1}
- Replace
You'll see that all the italic text will be surrounded with the \emph{·}
tag. Now, you can copy the text to the clipboard and go to LyX → Edit →
Paste Special → Paste as LaTeX.
Of course, for short texts it's not worth doing all that, but for longer
texts, it works pretty well.

Hi _johnny7, In theory this should be possible. When copying, LibreOffice writer appears to save two MIME types, plain text (which does not preserve the italics), and HTML (which should). LyX can import HTML, so in theory you might be able to go to Edit > Paste Special > Paste from HTML. However, I just tested this and it didn't work for me. And unfortunately I don't have time to look into why it didn't work, but I still write this email just in case anyone else wants to dig :) Note that "Paste from HTML" does not show up in the menu in some cases. In my opinion this should be greyed out instead of invisible. It might work more smoothly if you are willing to export to a .html file and then import that from LyX. That's not as convenient as using your system clipboard, but it might work better.

Paste text with italics
Hello, is there a way to paste text (from a source such as LibreOffice) into LyX and keeping the words in italics emphasized? If not, could such an option be implemented? Thanks. -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

In ERT
\setindexpreamble{Introductory text...}
somewhere in the document (before the index).

Introductory text to index
I know the three codes: toc, lot and lof. But don't I need a code for the subject index?
Because if I just change toc to lof ...
\addtocontents {lof} {My short paragraph\ par}
... I got another error. I can play it down, but then the text stands for the list of figures immediately after its heading.
Instead of this I want to place it immediately after the heading of the index!
Greetings

Sorry, my fault. You're right, toc is for the table of contents. For the
list of figures you need to use lof and for the list of tables lot
\addtocontents{lof}{The content you want to add\par} % for a list of
figures
\addtocontents{lot}{The content you want to add\par} % for a list of tables
