Re: Multilingual Babel in LyX
Dear Tobias, Dear all
Thank you very much for your answer.
Your solution works in the following way :
I set the Edit/Settings/Languages/Language/Package entry to :
\usepackage[english,french]{babel}
and Format/Language/Language to french
and add :
\selectlanguage{french} in the document before the title (it won't work if I
put in the preamble).
---
Now one may wonder why the \selectlanguage{french} has to be used since the
\usepackage[english,french]{babel} should automatically set the defualt
language to french, which is not the case.
I investigated and found out that LyX will produce the following latex code
:
%% LyX 1.1 created this file. For more info, see http://www.lyx.org/.
%% Do not edit unless you really know what you are doing.
\documentclass[a4paper,french]{article}
\usepackage{palatino}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage[english,french]{babel}
\makeatletter
%% LyX specific LaTeX commands.
\providecommand{\LyX}{L\kern-.1667em\lower.25em\hbox{Y}\kern-.125emX\@}
%% User specified LaTeX commands.
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\selectlanguage{french}
%%etc.
If I modify the line line :
\documentclass[a4paper,french]{article}
for :
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
and remove the line \selectlanguage{french}, it will also work (the french
language will be selected by default).
Why ?
Thank you

Hello,
I'm typing a french text with some citations in english.
I'm using lyx1.1.6fix4.
I therefore selected frenchb in lyx. I'd like to use some Babel
commands
or environemnt
like :
\begin{otherlanguage}{english}
...
\end{otherlanguage}
The problem here is that latex gives me an error that says that the
english
language had not been defined yet.
I therefore added (from lyx) the command :
\usepackage[english, french]{babel}
But here latex gives me another error that says that I'm trying to
redefine
babel options and that it clashes with previuous declaration of the
babel
package.
The only way I found to make it works is to export the lyx file to latex
and then to substitute the line :
\documentclass[a4paper,frenchb]{article}
with
\documentclass[a4paper,english,frenchb]{article}
and this is quite annoying.
Is there some way to do this from within lyx ?
Is there some extra functionality in lyx 1.2.0 and fix this problem ?
Thank you

Dear Francis,
I am referring to LyX 1.1.6, perhaps it is similar in 1.2.0:
Under Edit/Settings there is the point Languages, and again the point
Language. Here you find the point Package, the default is probably
\usepackage[english]{babel}. Change this to, for example,
\usepackage[french,english]{babel}, or whatever language you need. The last
language option set is the default, all other languages with their
hyphenation patterns and specialities are loaded within the document with
\selectlanguage{french}, for example.
Do not invoke \usepackage{babel} a second time under Layout/LaTeX
preamble,
otherwise you get the problems you mentioned.
Happy texing
Tobias
