That way I can select text or a table and simply tap Ctrl+P to wrap it in a preview inset and see (after a pause) the result. If I want an ert inset inside a preview inset then I hold down the Ctrl key and tap P then L (which are diagonally adjacent on my keyboard).

Just to be sure: This answer sounds as if the normal way to hunt down
LaTeX errors in LyX is to export to LaTeX. That is not so (and probably
not what is meant). It should work directly from the LaTeX Errors window.
However, there are some exceptions. Most notably errors in the preamble.
I don't think those can be found the way LyX suggests. And since,
unfortunately, the code preview pane does not have proper line numbers,
it is hard to track those errors down. In that case exporting to another
editor might be a better way indeed.

You can, and I suggest you try it just in case it works, but my experience tells me that out of stack errors are caused by bad LaTeX authoring, not a correct LaTeX file that just happens to need a little more stack. I know how to fix this. Archive what you currently have, copy it to mwe.lyx, then start subtracting stuff until only the essentials of the requirements to produce the error remain. Archive that file as mwe.lyx. Then, with some experimentation, the root cause should stick out like a sore thumb, and once you find it, you can fix it either by fixing the root cause in the originally archived document, or by slowly building up the fixed mwe until it becomes obvious how to fix the original file. Even if this doesn't work for you, asking questions about mwe.lyx would *greatly* increase the likelihood of somebody accurately answering your questions. I run into this hassle all the time. It's frustrating and time consuming, but if you follow the process, fixing it isn't rocket science.

There are three statistical model frameworks applied to data sets.
They are not equivalent and each is most appropriate to answer questions
about different types of data.

You need to define a new local layout (Documents → Settings → Local
layout). The following example uses the photo package, but you can adapt it
to your needs. Once set, you'll have the a new inset under Insert → Float.
Format 66
AddToPreamble
\usepackage[]{photo}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\addto\captionsenglish{
\def\photoname{Photograph}
\def\listphotoname{Index of Photographs}
}
EndPreamble
Float
Type photo
GuiName "Photo"
Placement tbp
Extension loscf
NumberWithin none
Style plain
ListCommand listofphotos
ListName "Index of Photographs"
RefPrefix Photo
IsPredefined 1
UsesFloatPkg 0
End

How to Insert a Custom Float
Stoyan Stoyanov and I have a paper accepted by a Journal that does not use
Figures or Tables,
and instead uses Exhibits for both. Stoyan points out the following:
We can load the newfloat package and define a custom Exhibit float
environment trivially in the preamble in this way:
\usepackage{newfloat}
\DeclareFloatingEnvironment{exhibit}
Then, in latex one use it the usual way:
\begin{exhibit}
...
\end{exhibit}
Although we can include those two lines in the preamble in LyX, the menu in
Inset -> Float does not have a "custom" option.
How can we insert a custom float in LyX?
Any guidance that anyone can provide would be very much appreciated.

Re: SOLVED > Re: how to tell LyX that there is a 2023 texlive
On the Mac I use Homebrew's basictex with a small script to save the installed packages so it can pull the additional ones after the upgrade via tlmgr. LyX works out of the box because Homebrew and tlmgr run texhash and the binary directories are symlinked by Homebrew. I can then usually just remove the older version. el On 02/05/2023 18:09, Wolfgang Engelmann wrote: > > > Am 02.05.23 um 17:42 schrieb José Matos: >> On Tue, 2023-05-02 at 16:43 +0200, Wolfgang Engelmann wrote: >>> How can I tell LyX that there is a 2023 texlive which I installed >>> just now. >>> >>> It is in >>> /usr/local/texlive/2023 >>> and I have the PATHs set in ~/.profile. >>> >>> However, LyX uses still >>> /usr/local/texlive/2022 >>> >>> Wolfgang >> >> What happens if you try: >> Tools -> Reconfigure >> >> then restart LyX. >> >> Does that works? > > Thanks, José, for the reminder.

You need to add \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} to the latex preamble so that
LyX will
know what is the correct encoding.

I can test this on Linux at some point, but I guess the best on all platforms is to then not even try to run configure.py and instead give a clear message "Python not found. LyX will not work correctly.", and then maybe link to platform specific info on what to do if Python is not found. In any case, this definitely seems tricky.

Thanks for that detailed explanation, Stephan. Do I understand then that this issue is a long-term issue on macOS that we should expect for future versions as well? That is, it is not just an issue that appears when upgrading to Ventura. As is, even a new Apple computer that comes with Ventura pre-installed will not have Python by default and thus will have the issue. It's good to know that LyX's own python check triggers the popup. Would it make sense to have a lighter python check that does not raise the popup, and conditional on that check LyX can give a user-friendly message like "macOS will prompt you to install python, which is necessary for LyX. We suggest you click on yes/accept/install" ? Of course, this will not cover all of the cases. For example, if a different program triggered the prompt and they said "no", then I imagine they will not see the popup again.

AFAIK you can choose either so called „Xcode Command Line Tools“ or „Xcode Developer Package“. The command line tools include e.g. clang, git and python3 and SDKs. The disk image of version 12.2 has 431M and 14.2 has 672M. The unpacked files require approximately 2GB..3GB. Without the command line tools installed there is a small python3 utility only. The execution of this python3 triggers a popup asking the user for installation of the command line tools. https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/12523 Unfortunately this popup is raised on first python presence check by LyX. Shortly after this LyX raises its own popup to tell the user the configuration has failed. This 2nd popup hides the first one partially and distracts users from the first. The easiest solution for users would be to allow download and install of the command line tools by confirmation of the first question, wait until it is finished (it really takes a while) and restart LyX's configuration.

Re: How to make LyX work with Mac OS 13.1:solved
Hal, the command is sudo xcode-select --install you will then be asked for your password. It is a system wide installation of the command line tools (of XCode) and hence must be done as administrator (technically root). The complete XCode will of course also install python3 but is a few GB too much. el On 14/12/2022 13:50, Hal Kierstead via lyx-users wrote: >> On Dec 13, 2022, at 5:38 PM, Scott Kostyshak wrote: >> >> On Tue, Dec 13, 2022 at 05:02:30PM -0700, Hal Kierstead via lyx-users wrote: >>> All - >>> >>> I just upgraded to Mac OS 13.1.

How to make LyX work with Mac OS 13.1?
All - I just upgraded to Mac OS 13.1. I was not given a chance to install python. How do I check if I have the right version of python? I cannot reconfigure LyX. I get the message: The system reconfiguration has failed. Default textclass is used but LyX may not be able to work properly. Please reconfigure again if needed. Reconfiguring again does not work either. Also, I have a bind file that LyX finds, but does not use. Is this because LyX needs to be reconfigured? I tried reinstalling LyX, but that did not help.

How figure and table numbering is defined?
I tried to look where the numbering (within the lyx editor) of figures and tables is defined. If I choose book doc class, a figure gets the number "chapter-number.figurenumber-within-the-chapter", whereas if I choose article doc class, it changes to "figure-number-within-the-whole-article". Nothing is mentioned about floats numbers in stdfloats.inc, stdcounters.inc or the like. I hope that if I will have the answer to how this numbering is done, I might be able to set nicely the numbering of a new float I want to insert into my document.-- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

Hello Enrico,
You can overcome the \tabularnewline problem more easily if you will
replace "\renewenvironment{tabular}{\begin{tblr}[t]}{\end{tblr}}" in the
preamble with
"\renewenvironment{tabular}{\begin{tblr}[t,expand=\tabularnewline]}{\end{tblr}}",
this way you won't have to add "\\'' manually at the end of a line. See
the attached file.

You could redefine the tabular environment used by LyX. However, you
cannot use the GUI for setting tabular properties. Another difficulty is
the fact that LyX uses \tabularnewline instead of \\ to end a line and,
seemingly, the tabularray package does not understand it. So you have
also to redefine \tabularnewline and remember to add \\ in ERT at the
end of each table line.
Arguments such as "width=10cm,colspec={X[c]},rows={ht=2cm},hlines,vlines"
can be passed through the "LaTeX argument" in the "Tabular Settings"
paying attention to avoid any space character.
See the attached example containing two examples in both ERT and a
somewhat LyXfied form as explained above. This last form is marginally
better than the ERT one.

Hello Ehud,
I am not sure if the last message I've sent was received as it does not
appear in the mail list archive.
I wrote a module to solve your problem, you can get it here
<https://github.com/Udi-Fogiel/Tabularray-Module---Lyx>. I apologize in
advance for any misspelling in the example file, as I am not a native
english speaker. Please read section 3 in Tabularray.pdf before you start
to use the module.

How to insert a tabular array to LyX
I want to insert a tblr environment (from the tabularray package) into my lyx
document.
I read that currently LyX supports only tabular environments for tables, and
not even tabularx.
But still I would like to get some thoughts or ideas from the members how to
insert (graphically, not through ERT) something like the following environment:
>\begin{tblr}[t]{width=10cm,colspec={X[c]},rows={ht=2cm},hlines,vlines}

How to update a template used by a team
I am writing a template to be used by my colleagues.
The template is mainly based on a module file that changes the WYSIWYG in the
lyx editor to look close enough to what you would see in the printed pdf file.
But, not all latex commands you can write in a module file.
For example, changing the page style with the fancyhdr package,
\pagestyle{fancy}
is a command that should be inserted as an ERT code somewhere in the lyx file.
I have sent over to one of my colleagues a beta version of this template, and
he started using it and inserted his own content in it.
But after improving the layout I understand that I need to place this command
somewhere else in a different position in the document.
So in order for the writer to line-up with this change, it has to be done
manually by him since this is not a command inserted by the module file. This
is an example for a minor change, and of course, I can send him an email
telling him what changes should be made, but this is not considered a smooth
and correct workflow.
Do you have any insight or idea how we can work better as a team?
Thanks very much!--

I am trying to remove the html attributes assigned by LyXHTML to the
Standard text inserted in the editor.
LyX's default is to render Standard as
This is text inserted in
Standard
together with
p.standard {
text-align: left;
}
appearing in the header.
What I want is to get the simple html code
This is text inserted in Standard
In order to do that I am writing my Style in a layout file. What I
have at the moment is the following:
(I copied the first rows from stdclass.inc)
Style Standard
Category MainText
MarginStatic
LatexType Paragraph
LatexName dummy
ParIndent MM
ParSkip 0.4
Align Block
AlignPossible Block, Left, Right, Center
LabelType No_Label
HTMLAttr " "
End
I think this exchange from lyx-devel will provide some explanation:

Hello list!
LyXHTML outputs standard paragraphs with a ... (as is the
standard for many insets), but i would much prefer
I know i can change the tag of other insets by going in the local
layout section of Document->Setting, and write something like
InsetLayout Foot
HTMLTag p
End
but i cant find anything about the standard paragraph. I don't mean
the "sectioning" paragraph, that is mapped to "HTMLTag h5", but the
piece of text you get after pressing RET in LyX.
It's a paragraph layout: Standard. See stdclass.inc.
But yes, at the moment, that is hardcoded. The reason is that the tag
turns up inside other tags and nested 's are invalid. But it probably
should be made customizable.
RikiRemoval of this hardcoded stuff would require a bit of lyxhtml output
rewrite, which should be under way right now. Unfortunately, I think
it's just one dev working on it (Thibaut).
After a lot of trial and error, using the last line I eliminated the
"div class="standard"" from the p element but still LyX assigns to it
an id="some number" which I want to eliminate too.
Any idea about it would be very welcome.
If you're referring to the "magicparlabel", it's hardcoded. I was
thinking about making a patch to remove it, but LyX relies on this
"magic labels" to do a lot of the referencing (a quick glance at how the
TOC is done will give you an idea). I am not that knowlodgeable about
HTML referencing, so this will take some time.
Yeahh, this is one of the reasons I don't use LyX for ePub. Last
time I looked, LyX exports used the deprecated and now with HTML5
eliminated inside a div specially made to contain
one . What could *possibly* go wrong?
If I had to eliminate these redundant things, I'd do it
with a postprocessor that corrects LyX' complexifications. It's not
easy, but you can use Python with the "import xml.etree.ElementTree as
ET" library. You'd analyze every DOM element, and for every
whose only purpose is to encase one , get rid of the div after
reading metadata from that and any silliness, applying
the information to attributes of the itself.
Seriously, LyX has failed to export common sense XMLized HTML for 14
years now, and I doubt they ever will. Best you can hope for is to
either switch to another authoring program, or repair LyX' mistakes
post-export. I think trying to repair this stuff from within your LyX
document is walking the highway to heartache.
Also, the good thing about the XML-parsing Python post-processor
approach is that, as time goes on, you can fix any problems newly
discovered and/or newly added by LyX: You're in control as long as they
continue to export well-formed XML HTML, which of course isn't a
for-sure thing.

Re: How to include a bunch of tex commands globally
Le 17/04/2022 à 20:00, tush via lyx-users a écrit : I have a big block of tex commands (about 80 lines in length) that set up theorem environments using the |amsthm| and |thmtools| packages. To this bunch of tex commands there is also a corresponding LyX module that defines the theorems in the editor (paragraph styles, section 5.3.7 in the customization manual). I want to avoid this 80 lines code block in my document preamble. It clutters the document structure. In your module, each of your theorems can be associated to its own preamble, that will only be incorporated when needed. It is also possible to specify with DependsOn that a style needs the preamble of another one. With this, you could make sure that only the required code gets included.

Re: How to include a bunch of tex commands globally
That will not survive LyX Updates. Local Layouts should go into the
local layout difrectory (which on the Mac is below ~/Library/Application
Support/LyX-2.3).
Never mind that "must be located" is incorrect. LaTeX finds documents
in many places (find out what texhash does :-)-O)
I don't understand the issue, however. Why do you need (look at) the
TeX files generated by LyX? And even if so, why the concern about the
"clutter"?
That's what the Preamble is for (put in ton's of LaTeX and never look
at it again :-)-O)
I have a large include.tex for my handbook whih is included by the
master document and all child documents, so I have the same
"environment" for all and even setting up conditionals so font changes
depending on Landscape vs Portrait and similar.

Of course, one can insert the code block as it is inside this:

⟨80 lines of code go here⟩
EndPreamble
But this adds the big code block right into my preamble, which, as I
said, I want to avoid.
The other option is to save the code block in a tex file
(`myPreable.tex` for example) and to load it into my document:
Preamble
\input{myPreamble}
EndPreamble
But this means that the file `myPreamble.tex` must be located in the
root directory of the LyX project.
Is there any way to load the code block while it is located in the
"Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/layouts/" directory? I am
about to send this module file and all its accompanying files to a
colleague, and I want to spare him from the task of taking care which
files go where.
I hope my question is clear.
