Align headings and their outline numbers

[Andreas Plihal]

Hi,

 

as you know, I'm writing a KOMA book. 

 

How can I get all heading text to be left-justified and their associated section numbers right-justified? 

 

For a better understanding, I have enclosed a graphic that illustrates what I mean.

 

Greetings

Andreas

DEar Daniel,

thanks a lot, this works very well. I have also added the classoptions 
dvipsnames to have more possibilities. You saved my day… :)

How about something like

in your latex preamble?

Hello,

could someone please help me - even though it may seem ridiculous - to change 
the colour of the headings in »Koma Script Report«? I don't want to use the 
text styles, as I want to use a different colour for all the headings across

Also the documentation and at

Could someone please give me a hint?

Re: Adding label to all headings automatically

[Dr Eberhard Lisse]

LyX also proposes a name if you manually add a label, so there must be
programming logic for the naming.  

If one could find that, and then use it for a script as below (probably
Python :-)-O) it might be really simple to implement :-)-O

Actually LyX notices if a document changes (for example when using RCS)
and then offers a reload :-)-O

The first thing that I think of when confronted with this question is
to make an AWK or Python program to go through the LyX file and add an
intelligently named label to each heading that doesn't yet have a
label. Such a program would probably take 1 to 4 seconds to run,
depending on the size of the LyX file.

Obviously, you'd need to close the document in LyX before running the
external program on it.

Adding label to all headings automatically

[Paul Evans]

Hi 

I would be grateful for advice on how to enter labels automatically in all 
headings (Chapter, Section etc).

I wanted to achieve this as I am starting up a new document with multiple 
sections etc with the expectation that there will be multiple cross references.

I use the keyboard to start a new section or subsection. The obvious (!) 
solution seemed to be to change the relevant key shortcuts. I tried out the 
change in the mini buffer. Instead of 

 layout Section (as used for Crtl-P-2)

I tried 

command-sequence layout Section ; label-insert ; 

This opened the dialogue and pressing return completed the process, accepting 
the default label. However as I am happy with the defaults I tried to find a 
further command to add to the sequence to close and apply the dialog. I have 
found lots of options being used in similar cases but none does the job in this 
sequence. The various commands about paragraphs etc do not impact on the dialog 
and variations using inset-insert label seem to require explicit stating of the 
label required. 

This is my first serious venture into the world of LFUN and I assume I am 
missing something straightforward. Ultimately I can live with the solution I 
have got so far but it is frustrating not to find the necessary steps for a 
fully automatic solution.

So I have three questions:

Is there a simple command to close and apply the dialog that opens with the 
sequence I have?
If not, is there a different command sequence that will do the job?
Or, am I missing some other route or setting that would achieve the same ends?
I am using Lyx2.3.0 with memoir class  for this document and running on OSX 
Mojave.

Many thanks

Re: how to get rid of dots in nomenclature subgroup headings

[Karl Linek]

Hello,

I'm using sections in my nomenclature. It worked well, but suddenly it
didn't work anymore. Studing the wiki ditn't help. Then I read this
letter. The command '\usepackage{ifthen}' in the preamble fixed all My
problems. Therefore one should add this command in the wiki 'Creating
Nomenclature with Sections'.

Nevertheless thank you for your steady work.

how to get rid of dots in nomenclature subgroup headings

[Michael Berger]

Dear Friends of LyX,
in the nomenclature of my document (KOMAScriptarticle) I use in the preamble

\usepackage{ifthen}

\renewcommand{\nomgroup}[1]{%

\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{C}}{\item[\textbf{Symbols}]}{%

\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{D}}{\item[\textbf{Numbers}]}{%

\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{B}}{\item[\textbf{Abbreviations}]}{%

\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{A}}{\item[\textbf{Definitions}]}{}

}% B matches Abbreviations

}% A matches Definitions

}% C matches Symbols

}% D matches Numbers

and in the LyX document \renewcommand{\nomlabel}[1]{#1\dotfill}

\renewcommand{\nomname}{Nomenclature of Linguistic Terms}

I not only get dots in each entry as desired but also undesired dots 
after the subgroup headings as per screen shot.

How to remove the dots after the subgroup headings?

Thanks and regards

Headings with package fancyhdr

[Aline Gautrein]

Hey Lyx-Gurus,

I am using KOMAscript book and I inserted a footer and header with fancyhdr
(I know one could also use scrpage).
After some playing around, I finally managed to have the footer and headers
as intended, except for two problems.

1. The font of the headers of indices like Contents, List of Figures
etc. is different from the rest of the document also I defined it the same
way. Here is my definition of header and footer:

\pagestyle{fancy}
% Kopfzeile
\fancyhead[LE]{\leftmark}
\fancyhead[RO]{\rightmark}
\fancyhead[C,RE,LO]{}
%Fußzeile
\fancyfoot[RO,LE]{\thepage}
\fancyfoot[RE,LO,CE,CO]{}


I placed it in front of all the indices.

2. I used

\usepackage{multicol}

\@ifundefined{chapter}

{\def\wilh@nomsection{section}}

{\def\wilh@nomsection{chapter}}

\def\thenomenclature{%

\begin{multicols}{2}[%

\csname\wilh@nomsection\endcsname*{\nomname}

\if@intoc\addcontentsline{toc}{\wilh@nomsection}{\nomname}\fi

\nompreamble]

\list{}{%

\labelwidth\nom@tempdim

\leftmargin\labelwidth

\advance\leftmargin\labelsep

\itemsep\nomitemsep

\let\makelabel\nomlabel}%

}

\def\endthenomenclature{%

\endlist

\end{multicols}

\nompostamble}


to get a two column nomenclature with the columns beginning below the
chapter title. Unfortunately Nomenclature is now not been recognized as
chapter title by the fancyhdr anymore.


Does anyone know what to do?


Thanks a lot!

Headings of Indices

[Aline Gautrein]

Hey guys!

I use KOMA script and fancyhdr to define headers and footers of my document.

In my preamble I definded:

\usepackage{fancyhdr}

\renewcommand{\chaptermark}[1]{\markboth{#1}{#1}}

\renewcommand{\sectionmark}[1]{\markright{\thesection.#1}}

To start the headers I wrote:


\pagestyle{fancy}
\lhead[\fancyplain{}{}]{\fancyplain{}{\rightmark}}
%Fußzeile
\fancyfoot[RO,LE]{\thepage}
\fancyfoot[RE,LO,CE,CO]{}

However, the font of the indices is different from the main chapters.
In addition, the command cleardoublepage which in KOMA normaly suppresses
headers and footers on vacant pages is overwritten. How can I delete the
headers and footers on the vacant pages again?

I want the headers to look alike for the whole document.

Thanks guys!

Headings of Indices

Hey guys!

I use KOMA script and fancyhdr to define headers and footers of my document.

In my preamble I definded:

\usepackage{fancyhdr}

\renewcommand{\chaptermark}[1]{\markboth{#1}{#1}}

\renewcommand{\sectionmark}[1]{\markright{\thesection.#1}}

\rhead[\fancyplain{}{\leftmark}]{\fancyplain{}{}}



To start the headers I wrote:


\pagestyle{fancy}
\lhead[\fancyplain{}{}]{\fancyplain{}{\rightmark}}

Any suggestions?


I don't use that class, but if you look at the manual for scrpage2
http://tug.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/koma-script/doc/scrpage2.pdf
there is some help on p. E6. Roughly, I think you want to do:
\clearscrheadfoot
\ohead{...}
etc
at the beginning of the main matter. The new headings will take effect 
at the point you declare them. If you have put them in the preamble, 
that is why they are affecting earlier pages.

Text direction for chapter headings in top margin for RTL book

[David Gendall]

I am writing a book in Hebrew using Lyx 2.0.3 on Debian Wheezy.
Hebrew is written from right-to-left.

Unlike article and letter, which have Hebrew modifications defined for
them, none of the various 'book' layouts do. I need the chapter headings
provided by the book layout. A number of problems occur, examples of
which are shown in the attached documents:

1. The chapter headings in the top page margin are displayed reversed
(LTR), although when displayed at the beginning of the chapter and in
the table of contents they are correct

2. English text included in the chapter names is displayed using Hebrew
characters

Problem (2) does not concern me personally since my project is 100%
Hebrew, although for other authors it is liable to be a headache.

Problem (1) is demonstrated best on page 8 in the pdf in the upper
margin. Instead of the Hebrew text as at the beginning of the chapter:

שם פרק ראשון

it displays it reversed:

ןושאר קרפ םש

followed by the gibberish it makes out of the English.

Any suggestions for a workaround? I tried to figure out how to create a
Hebrew book layout myself based on the conversions for letter and
article but it was far from obvious.

All assistance gratefully received,

David

Re: Text direction for chapter headings in top margin for RTL book

[Itai Shaked]

Hello David,

First, I would recommend you upgrade to the latest version of Lyx. There
have been various bugs related to RTL that have been fixed since 2.0.3.
Upgrading to 2.0.8 (or even 2.1 if possible) could solve at least some of
your problems.

Additionally, make sure all English text is marked as English in Lyx (your
headers are not, although the body text is). If you have the option
selected to mark foreign languages, English text should be underlined in
blue. I suspect once you do this you will encounter problems with pdf
properties (maybe this was the reason the text was not marked as English in
the first place?) - as far as I know there is no simple way of making pdf
properties work with PDFLatex and Hebrew, so you should probably either
check off that option in the document settings, or use XeTeX, or else try
following this -

Re: Text direction for chapter headings in top margin for RTL book

[Itai Shaked]

Hello David,

First, I would recommend you upgrade to the latest version of Lyx. There
have been various bugs related to RTL that have been fixed since 2.0.3.
Upgrading to 2.0.8 (or even 2.1 if possible) could solve at least some of
your problems.

Additionally, make sure all English text is marked as English in Lyx (your
headers are not, although the body text is). If you have the option
selected to mark foreign languages, English text should be underlined in
blue. I suspect once you do this you will encounter problems with pdf
properties (maybe this was the reason the text was not marked as English in
the first place?) - as far as I know there is no simple way of making pdf
properties work with PDFLatex and Hebrew, so you should probably either
check off that option in the document settings, or use XeTeX, or else try
following this -

Hi,

By the way, I totally forgot to put the system details in my

I guess it's probably more related to an update of a MikTex package.


It's a bug in the current KOMA-Script release:

I'm seeing a strange glitch in the PDF output where headings and paragraph

As I edit the text, the problem shifts from one section to another. That is, if 
I add some sentences to Section II, the heading overlap problem might stop 
effecting Section III, but starts effecting Section VII.

I haven't found any pattern to it, so far.

As I edit the text, the problem shifts from one section to another. That is, if 
I add some sentences to Section II, the heading overlap problem might stop 
effecting Section III, but starts effecting Section VII.

I haven't found any pattern to it, so far.

FW: Paragraphs and headings overlapping in pdf output

[Brown, Nelson A. (DFRC-RC)]

I'm using the aiaa-tc.cls class v4.0.1 (http://code.google.com/p/aiaa-latex/)

I'm seeing a strange glitch in the PDF output where headings and paragraph

KOMA Script Letter 2: Continuation Page Headings

[Rich Shepard]

  In multipage business letters here in the US all continuation pages should
have a header in the upper left of the page containing

Addressee's Name
Date as shown on page 1
Page number

  While I thought that the KOMA-Script Letter 2 configuration I use had this
capability and how to do this was worked out years ago I don't have a record
of how to do this in my saved messages and I am not finding the solution in
my Web searches.

  Please point me to a resource that explains how to add this continuation
page header.

Thanks in advance,

Rich

Julien,

  Thanks very much! I thought I had solved this before but I did not find
that stored tread in my Web searches.

  The changes in LyX over the past 5 years means I need to modify the
solution that worked then. Now, the 'toname' comes out right justified
rather than left justified but the date and page number are on the left.
I'll work on fixing this over the next couple of days.

Much appreciated,

Rich

Well, because the normal way is actually not normal to my working habits.
I use memoir for everything regardless of the pieces' lengths and it's
actually easier for me to deal with  a consistent set of environments
without having to stop and think about whether I am using a book-like or an
article-like class. I think of headings as level 0, level 1, etcetera,
and I am happy to leave the proper formatting to a customized class that I
can switch at will.
Admittedly, this is not a standard Latex workflow, but it works for me.

How to remove line break in chapter headings layout?

[stefano franchi]

I use the memoir class for both books and article and I modified the memoir
layout accordingly to create a memoir-article layout. I would like LyX to
format chapter headings *on screen* (pdf output is fine) the same way it
formats all other section headings, that is:

counter space chapter title

instead of the standard formatting for the book class(es):

Chapter counter
chapter title


In short, I want to:

1. Remove the prefix Chapter

2. Remove the newline after the chapter counter.

My problem is that I cannot find a way to achieve 2.

The code for the chapter style in stdsections.inc is:

Style Chapter
MarginStatic
Category  Section
LabelString   Chapter \thechapter
LabelStringAppendix   Appendix \thechapter
LabelType Counter
LabelCounter  chapter
TocLevel  0
LatexType Command
LatexName chapter
NeedProtect   1
NextNoIndent  1
ParSkip   0.4
TopSep4
BottomSep 0.8
ParSep0.8
Align Block
OptionalArgs  1
Font
  Series  Bold
  SizeHuge
EndFont
HTMLTag   h1
End


Since reading the customization manual was of no help,  I tried copying it
into the local layout field and removing/changing options one by one while
checking their effects. It is obvious that I can remove the Chapter
prefix by removing it from  the LabelString field, but that still leaves
the newline in place and I get:

Chapter counter
chapter title

If I comment out the LabelString field altogether, I get back the standard
behavior (prefix/counter/newline/title), interestingly enough. The same
thing happens if, instead of modifying the chapter style, I start from the
section style in stdsections.inc and change the relevant parameters in
LabelCounter and LatexName from section to chapter

In short, I'm stumped. Perhaps the behavior of the chapter style is
hard-coded somewhere? If not, could someone enlighten me?

Cheers,

Stefano

It's only possible in LyX 2.1dev. The following redefinition after the 
original definiton has been inputed should do:

The KOMA implementation in trunk might serve as a model.

I use the memoir class for both books and article and I modified the memoir
layout accordingly to create a "memoir-article" layout. I would like LyX to
format chapter headings *on screen* (pdf output is fine) the same way it
formats all other section headings, that is:

"counter" space "chapter title"

instead of the standard formatting for the book class(es):

Chapter "counter"
"chapter title"


In short, I want to:

1. Remove the prefix "Chapter"

2. Remove the newline after the chapter counter.

My problem is that I cannot find a way to achieve 2.

The code for the chapter style in stdsections.inc is:

Style Chapter
MarginStatic
Category  Section
LabelString   "Chapter \thechapter"
LabelStringAppendix   "Appendix \thechapter"
LabelType Counter
LabelCounter  chapter
TocLevel  0
LatexType Command
LatexName chapter
NeedProtect   1
NextNoIndent  1
ParSkip   0.4
TopSep4
BottomSep 0.8
ParSep0.8
Align Block
OptionalArgs  1
Font
  Series  Bold
  SizeHuge
EndFont
HTMLTag   h1
End


Since reading the customization manual was of no help,  I tried copying it
into the local layout field and removing/changing options one by one while
checking their effects. It is obvious that I can remove the "Chapter"
prefix by removing it from  the LabelString field, but that still leaves
the newline in place and I get:

Chapter "counter"
"chapter title"

If I comment out the LabelString field altogether, I get back the standard
behavior (prefix/counter/newline/title), interestingly enough. The same
thing happens if, instead of modifying the chapter style, I start from the
section style in stdsections.inc and change the relevant parameters in
LabelCounter and LatexName from "section" to "chapter"

In short, I'm stumped. Perhaps the behavior of the chapter style is
hard-coded somewhere? If not, could someone enlighten me?

Cheers,

Stefano

It's only possible in LyX 2.1dev. The following redefinition after the 
original definiton has been inputed should do:

Style Chapter
LabelType Static
LabelSep  xxx
Margin   Dynamic
End

The KOMA implementation in trunk might serve as a model.

Actually:

Style Chapter
LabelType Static
LabelString  "\thechapter"
LabelSep  xxx
Margin   Dynamic
TocLevel   0
End

Thanks Jürgen. Unfortunately, I am still on 2.0.6 for production purposes.
Good to know the problem is solved in 2.1.

 better done using
 ERT than trying to shoehorn a Document Class into doing stuff like center

 tailoring vertical space, or for gosh sakes including a full sized cover 
 image.

But it is so tempting

 using section*)?

:-)

It's time for my monthly fingerpaint the frontmatter suggestion.

In my opinion, the styles based nature of LyX is ideal for a document's
Mainmatter, where everything should be consistent.

But in my opinion, the frontmatter is a bunch of one-off stuff that's
much better done using ERT than trying to shoehorn a Document Class
into doing stuff like center aligning something or tailoring vertical
space, or for gosh sakes including a full sized cover image.

Custom frontmatter and headings

[Ray Rashif]

Hi guys

I'm adding a _static_ list of acronyms/abbreviations/units page
(because I don't want any program to mess with my style of
abbreviating throughout the document), but so far I haven't been able
to match the frontmatter headings, for eg. table of contents, list of
figures, list of tables.

I would want the heading of this custom "List of Acronyms" to be
similar to the typeset "List of Tables" and so on. I've used the code
from [1] and it uses section*, but it is not consistent. Is there a
way I could centre the section title? But even so, I'd like a better,
more "integrated" approach.

Ermm..correction. It's not actually the list I'm worried about but
another custom frontmatter - a declaration page. The list of acronyms
would be left aligned, but not the declaration.

So, the real question is, how would I go about adding a custom
"declaration" page with the title centred (and not left-aligned by
using section*)?

Hi,

In the document class Article (AMS) how do you change the section 
headings from


1 Heading 1

Chapter 1

The easiest way is probably to use the titlesec package, whose documentation
is pretty good and provides lots of examples.
