your second advise worked for me. do you know how can I make the section

Of course you can do that, but

koma script book (scrbook) class section numbering in lyx 2.0.x and 2.1.0rc1

[Csikos Bela]

Hello:

This is only a report of a misbehavior so that lyx user (and possibly 
developers) would be aware of it.

Lyx (both 2.0.x and 2.1.0rc1) numbers koma book class sections consecutively 
disregarding \frontmatter and \mainmatter.

This results in a difference between section numbers in lyx interface and the 
pdf output.
For example if the document has 2 sections in the front matter and 5 in the 
main matter,
in lyx these are numbered from 1 to 7. In the pdf output the sections in the 
front matter are not numbered and the the sections in the main matter are 
numbered from 1 to 5.
This makes identifying text locations and editing/correcting the text difficult 
occasionally.

There are several ways to achieve this:

Maybe there is already a special LaTeX package for your document class
e.g. at CTAN.

Another alternative is to use the KOMA-script classes that provide many
well documented configuration options including section heading styling.
See scrguide.pdf or the English version scrguien.pdf on CTAN or your
local installation).

One way to do it is by redefining the corresponding commands:
\thepart, \thechapter, etc. If I understood your scheme correctly, you
want:

part: Alpha
chapter: Roman
section: arabic
subsection: alpha + )
subsubsection: : subsection + alpha
paragraph: ( + roman + )

You may try this code in the preamble of your doc:

\renewcommand{\thepart}{\Alph{part}}
\renewcommand{\thechapter}{\Roman{chapter}}
\renewcommand{\thesection}{\arabic{section}}
\renewcommand{\thesubsection}{\alph{subsection})}
\renewcommand{\thesubsubsection}{\alph{subsection}\alph{subsubsection})}
\renewcommand{\theparagraph}{(\roman{paragraph})}

This code may not get you all the way there, though. It only changes
the style of the counters, not the overall styling of the sectioning
commands. For instance, you will still get  "Part A" not just "A".

A better solution may be to use the titlesec package or (the memoir
class which includes the titlesec package). Take a look at section 9.2
of the manual (available on Ctan and probably on your own
installation: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/titlesec/).
Titlesec will allow you complete control over the sectioning commands

In either case, you'll get your desidered numbering scheme in the pdf
only.  Lyx will still show you arabic figures on screen. You would
have to write a module to fix what you see on screen as well (although
a bug made it impossible a few versions back. Things may have
changed).

I don't know about this one. Presumably, your document class has

After some trial and error, I added the first part to the preamble,  
with "\titlepage" removed and "newcommand" replaced by "renewcommand"  
as suggested. This seems to work. Hence, in the preamble:


  \renewenvironment{abstract}{%
  \null\vfil
  \...@beginparpenalty\@lowpenalty
  \begin{center}%
\bfseries \abstractname

  \end{center}}%
 {\par\vfil\null\endtitlepage}


2. I have two major Parts in my document. The first Part consists  
of sections (no chapters), with the second Part including  
chapters. I don't want chapters in the first section, for both  
inline effect (e.g. don't want new pages), and Table of Contents  
listing (i.e. don't want bold and no dots. What I _would_ like, if  
possible, if for the sections to be numbered similarly to  
chapters. i.e. 1 instead of 0.1, with the rest of its formatting  
remaining as a section. Is it possible to change the numbering of  
the sections (in the first Part only) without changing anything  
else?



Yes:
\let\oldthesection=\thesection
\renewcommand{\thesection}{\arabic{section}}
in ERT at the beginning of Part I. Then at Part II:
\renewcommand{\thesection}{\oldthesection}
again in ERT. I think.


This works perfectly!

3. In the second Part, I'd like the chapters in the TOC to be  
listed as "Chapter 1. Foobar" rather than "1 Foobar". i.e. I'd  
like it to be consistent with the inline chapter headings.


Look into the titlesec and titletoc packages. I think one of those  
will do what you want.


Again, I've probably done this totally wrong, but this works. Again,  
for future reference…


Firstly, in the preamble:

\usepackage[compact]{titlesec}
\newenvironment{notintoc}
{\addtocontents{toc}{\protect\setcounter{tocdepth}{-1}\ignorespaces}}
{\setcounter{secnumdepth}{2}%
\addtocontents{toc}{\protect\setcounter{tocdepth}{2}\ignorespaces}}

Then, just before the chapter begins, insert "clear page", then ERT  
"\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Chapter 1: Yourtitle}", which adds the  
nicely formatted title to the TOC.
Then ERT "\begin{notintoc}", and the write the chapter heading itself  
(e.g. "Yourtitle"). After the heading, ERT "\end{notintoc}". This part  
suppresses sending of the title to the TOC.


From preliminary testing, this seems to work well, with my headers,  
etc. looking as expected. I don't really know exactly what the  
preamble settings do, but they seem okay. I find the titlesec  
documentation a little opaque.

but in my head if you need a toc and to start sections anew for each
part, you do not write an article ;).


You caught me; I'm not writing an article. The article class is just the 
one I'm most familiar manipulating. I'm also not releasing the source 
for my document, so I'm more comfortable with unorthodox hacks.


It turns out there's a simple preamble command that accomplishes what I 
want: \...@addtoreset{section}{part}. It turned up after hours of poring 
over documentation when Google searches failed.

I think your problem is that hyperef only uses the section number
when making the bookmarks in toc. So, if I haven't overlooked somthing,
a new section wouldn't help you. Or atleast not if you didn't change 
the hyperref-package to understand the newsection as well.

I think you have three options. The first is to use the report-class instead 
of article, and chapter instead of part. This would have some side effects,
but in my head if you need a toc and to start sections anew for each
part, you do not write an article ;).

The second is to read the manual for the hyperef-peackage and hope that
there is someway to make hyperef to use the text of the section. I do not
know if this is the case, as I never have had the need.

The third is to construct the toc yourself from somthing like cross-ref.

I would go for option one, but you may have good reasons to use 
article-class that I do not know of.

HTH,
Ingar
 

Reset Section Numbering by Part

[Andrew Hills]

Hi all,

I want the section numbering to restart for each part in the article 
class. The only way I have devised is a simple hack in the LaTeX preamble:


\let\oldpart\part
\renewcommand{part}[1]{\oldpart{#1}
\setcounter{section}{0}}

This works great, except for the Table of Contents. When I generate a 
PDF, every Section N links to the first Section N; e.g., clicking on 
Part III, Section 2 takes me down to Part I, Section 2.


I understand that I can define a new counter with 
\newcounter{newsection}[part] to reset when I want it to. Is there a way 
to force sections to display this new counter while still being linked 
with the old one? If not, is there another way to solve my problem?

override section numbering in aastex class

[Tomás Revilla]

In the article (AASTeX) document class, is there an option to globablly
override section numbering? If not, can it be done in the preamble, how?
Unfortunately, the *section, *subsection options do not appear in the drop
down list. I do not want to use ERT because I am collaborating with someone
who started using LyX, so it is OK to put some ERT formating in a few
places, but that would be nasty through all the document.

LaTeX has come a long way and today the basic usage of LaTeX starts with the
choice of the document class. At least two packages are very powerful and
very configurable: Memoir and KOMA-Script. Within these classes you can
change practically everything you want. For other classes (the regular ones)
you need a lot of extra packages to change their look and behaviour. And
then there are very special classes such as AMS, IEEE and so on which are
often written for very special purposes such as specific journals. Unless
you are writing for such a journal providing its own document class or
unless you want your writings to look exactly like in one of these journals,
I for my part would not recommend using them. Use Memoir or KOMA instead and
check their manuals to make changes. Quite a few typical changes can be done
very easily by mouse-click in LyX’ document settings dialogue. If you need
help with theses classes simply ask on the list.

No, it's LaTeX behaving normally.

Assuming that you really want the TOC to include the word "Title" at the

space for chapter numbers in the TOC.  Have a look at the "labelwidth"

bug?: section numbering in note-insets

[Sven Schreiber]

Hi all,
when I shove an entire subsection into a note inset, the numbering of
the other non-note subsections remains as if nothing was "commented
out", i.e. numbers on screen do not match the printed output.

I realize that this behavior might also be considered a feature, but I'm
inclined to classify it as a bug instead. But I found no matching bugs
in bugzilla, although I vaguely remember reading some discussion of that
somewhere. So should I open a new bug? (oh btw this is with lyx 1.4.1 on
windows)

On a related note, isn't part 3.3.9.3 in the User's Guide concerning the
comment paragraph environment obsolete now with Lyx 1.4?

Cheers,
Sven

Ok before your ToC insert the following in ERT

\setcounter{secnumdepth}{0}

Then after your ToC have another ERT with

\setcounter{secnumdepth}{1}

This should only number the chapters in the TOC but still list the sections 
(if your TOC depth is set correctly as discussed in the earlier email), but 
both the chapters and the sections in your document.  You may need to play 
with the numbers but this is the right idea.

  You'd need to redefine the commands.


I tried setting the Section Numbering depth to -2 (and also to 0) and my

  This is the way that most documents are done: all or nothing. Any custom

This ist probably not the case, since the headings are displayed.

koma-script and no section-numbering within lyx

[Stephan Maseizik]

I'm using Lyx 1.3.2 on Debian unstable and have the following problem
using the koma-script package: headers (parts,chapters,sections,...) are
not numbered within Lyx while the dvi-output is o.k. When using a
different package e.g. article or article(mwart) all headers get
numbered within Lyx as expected.

I played around with different fonts for the display, as I thought it
might have to do with koma-script using sans-serife fonts for headers,
but with no success.

Anybody any ideas? Is this a problem with Lyx that perhaps is solved in
1.3.3 already (I'd simply wait for 1.3.3.entering Debian unstable then)
or is it caused by some wrong configuration on my side?

Just to clarify, in English that would be

LyX on Aqua must be more clever than we assumed.  ;<) The language
change mechanism isn't well tested and may not work as described in
the HOWTO.  In German, does your Preferences menu appear under Edit or
under LyX?  How about "About LyX" -- is it under LyX or under Help?
You might try changing the language preference for the Mac to English
in System Preferences and logging out and in again to see if that
opens LyX in English.

Can you tell us the console messages when running lyx (there is a console app 
somewhere in MacOSX's Apllication folder)? Especially, are there some 
messages about missing counters? Perhaps the stdcounters are not included in 
your layout files. Look out for
Input stdcounters.inc
in the layout file or in one of its included files (stdclass.inc for 
instance).

The layout files are in the /layout folder of you lyx directory.

HTH,
Juergen.

Re: no section numbering within lyx

[Till von Reumont]

Hi

I am not getting numbers anywhere, not in the LyX-Help-Documents and 
not in my own ones. I am definitely using the normal Section type 
sections and not the Section* ones. In the Navigation menu too I get no 
numbering of sections and subsections and subsub... and so on. When I 
render the file to dvi or ps or pdf, everything is perfect: numbers 
appear where they are supposed to.

Another little curiosity is that even though I never put the apropriate 
lines int the ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist (and I looked and they are 
not there) my LyX is entirely in German. I wonder how it knows that I 
am in Germany and using a German OS X? When I put the lines
LANG
EN
in it, it still doesn't change to an english interface. Do You think 
this might have anything to do with the missing section-numbers?
Thanks again,
Till

hello.
i am using the os x aqua version of lyx 1.3.2. everything works 
perfectly except that there are no numbers in the sections and 
subsections of the documents no matter if the document is an "article", 
a "report" etc. the actual output is ok though, my ps or dvi files are 
all correctly displayed and printed complete with numbered sections and

confusing sometimes because the numbers don't show up. any idea what i 
could do?

Read latex info file/hlp file in your LaTeX distribution. I would try

Hi,

it seems to me, that in LyX-Qt 1.3.0 labels in

 - Section: Section number + new line followed by the section name

Rodney,

  You're certainly welcome. I'm a LyX newcomer, too, so I'm always willing
to give back for the help that I've received.

  The ease of producing quality documents in LyX compared with LaTeX makes
even command line preferrers such as me take to it so readily.

  I have an acquaintance out here who learned TeX years ago. He's actually
adopted the eplain macros, but that's as far as he's gone. When I wrote
about the half-hour LyX learning curve (the time needed to read the
tutorial), he sent me a transcript that he laborously hand-crafted for his
daughter when she was graduating from high school. He asked if LyX could do
the same job.

  My response was that I presumed so, and I know that tables are easy enough
to put in, but I wasn't going to try to replicate the huge amount of TeX's
results. He's seriously looking at LyX now. :-)

Use the option titlepage (in the document dialog there is an other options

Using sections before chapters is considered a really bad idea.
If you do not want chapters at all, use article (or scrartcl)

Pardon my ignorance, but I'm a newbie and I don't know where I would add the

\renewcommand{\thesection}{\arabic{section}}

would this be in the report itself or in the latex preamble?

It is because the report class has chapters, you should use chapter instead 
of section, if you don't want chapters you should use the article class.
If you want to use the report class but don't want the chapter you can 
redefine the command \thesection (the command responsible of the 0.1) with
\renewcommand{\thesection}{\arabic{section}}
this should give you a 1.

IIRC, the highest level header in an article is ¨section¨  while the
highest level in a report (book?) is ¨Chapter¨, so basically what is
happening is correct, since you don't have declared a chapter.

Unfortunately i don't know a way to automatically change all section
headers in chapter headers (subsection to section etc..) except for
manually replacing it. You might consider editing the lyx file in an
editor (joe, vi, emacs) and change all the \section{ to \chapter{ etc..

Perhaps someone the list knows a better way..

Section numbering origin changes

[Rich Shepard]

  Last evening I came up against a problem with section numberin changes
that I could not resolve. It occurred in two imported text documents, one I
declared an article the other a report. Both are software manuals (one an
admin guide the other a user guide) I was sent via e-mail. The version of
LyX is 1.1.6fix3.

  When I imported the first document I tried both the report and article
classes to see which would print in a format I preferred. When I declared
the first section as a "section" it was numbered '1', and sub-sections were
'1.1' and '1.2' then '2' and so on. I changed the document type from article
to report and the numbers changed to begin with '0' rather than '1'. I
couldn't find where to change them back again.

  Putting that aside for a while, I imported the second manual changing the
document class to 'report'. As soon as I specified the first heading as a
"section", it was numbered '0'.

  I'm sure this is a simple user error, but I didn't see in the on-line
references how to change it back again. I'd appreciate a pointer to the
solution.

References with changed section numbering

[Aino de Vries]

Hi,
A homework i have to write is required to have its sections numbered the following way:
A Section
  I Subsection
1 Subsubsection
   a Paragraph
 aa Subparagraph
 bb Subparagraph 2
I have managed to achieve this by using the following latex preamble:
\usepackage{titlesec}
\renewcommand{\thesection}{\Alph{section}}
\renewcommand{\thesubsection}{\Roman{subsection}}
\renewcommand{\thesubsubsection}{\arabic{subsubsection}}
\renewcommand{\theparagraph}{\alph{paragraph}}
\renewcommand{\thesubparagraph}{\alph{subparagraph}\alph{subparagraph}}

Now, if i insert a label at "Subparagraph" and refer to it later in the text, the 
reference appears as "aa". 
If possible, i would like the reference to be like "A. I. 1. a. aa."
Does someone know a way to do this?
Greetings,
Aino de Vries

save it in /usr/local/share/texmf
or any other dir, which is in the latex dir tree.
don't forget to run texhash

Re: Section Numbering

[Hisyam]

Hello,
You are absolutely right that I should using the latex8 document class for
my conference paper.

After reading throught the Help->Customization and the Help->Extended
manual, I make the following changes:
1. cp /usr/share/lyx/layouts/latex8.layout
~/.lyx/layouts/latex8.layout.layout
2. edit latex8.layout and change the line to read
  \DeclareLaTeXClass[article, latex8.sty, times.sty]{article (Latex8}
3. Preamble
  \usepackage{Latex8}
Results: Still can't see "article(latex8)" as a document class option in the
Layout --> Document popup. :-(

I've download latex8.sty from Internet. Where should I put this style?

Helps are appreciated.

Have a nice day!

If it's a conference paper you are writing you should in fact be using the
latex8 document class.  This is actually a latex8.sty file used in
conjunction with article.cls.  IEEEtran.cls is actually for most of the
IEEE Transactions series of publications.

This will in fact match any IEEE conference.

Put IEEEtran.cls somewhere where LaTeX can find it.  The run LyX and use
Options->Reconfigure and when that's finished restart LyX and you should
have the new document class available.  Similar instructions for
installing latex8.sty.  Take a look at Help->Customization for more
detailed description of installing class files.

You'll also find some documentation for using latex8 in the Help->Extended
manual.

Re: Section Numbering

[Hisyam]

Thank you. Work nicely for section but I do get additional problems.
Defination, Theorem, Equations numbering also change to Roman which not what
I what. Any suggestions?

I've managed to download ieeetran.tar.Z from the site you mentioned. After
uncompress and untar there are three files i.e. IEEEtran.cls,
IEEEsample2e.tex, and IEEE.bst. How do I configure it with LyX.version
1.1.5fix2.

Thanks and appreciate your help. Have a nice day!

Your best bet is to get the IEEEtran.cls document class, which is
supported by LyX. You will be able to find it here
http://www.ieee.org/organizations/pubs/transactions/stylesheets.htm

Note that I have not tried that myself...

Hi Floks,
How do I change section numbering from 1, 2, ... to I, II,  because I
need to write an article in IEEE conference paper format.
Thanks.

You can try using section* for those you don't want them to appear in TOC.
Also, go to layout > document > Extra and set the section number depth to -1
or 92. This should do. (I have lyx 1.1.6) if you dont have that option in
your lyx, try putting in the latex preamble:

\usepackage{sectsty}
\renewcommand{\@seccntformat}[1]{}

This should do.

Section-numbering

[Chris Schulbert]

Hi!

I my document I want to switch off temporarily the secion-numbering.
Although, the sections should still apear in the toc. It is somewhat
biological work and the many generas and species, I have to describe
shouldn't show up with numbers. Like this:

Phylum
Class
Subclass
Supraorder
Order
Suborder
Family
Genus
Species

To receive a small, but usefull toc, I only want to show the family and the
Genus in the toc.
I could use \addcontentsline, but is there no way to stop the numbering e.g.
on page 34 and start again on page 120, when all the descriptive stuff is
over?


I know, I always try things that complicated :-)

This is exactly what the KDE frontend does i.e. offers a units combo box
where appropriate. Doesn't mean I've got it exactly right of course.

Dealing with glue lengths is a pain, my current poor solution is three
text boxes + combo boxes. I can't think of a nicer way of entering glue
lengths.

Maybe we should offer a choice-box with the units available?

But then again can margins have rubber lengths?

You also need to make sure that the "Use geometry package" option is selected.

Use the titlesec or sectsty package. For example, you can put the following
lines in the preamble:

\usepackage{sectsty}
\sectionfont{\mdseries\centering}
\subsectionfont{\mdseries}
