PStricks in LyX

[Wolfgang Engelmann]

Has somebody successfully used PStricks in LyX?

I am trying to plot a map of Europe with the PST-Geo 
and installed the TeX code of an example.
The error is: 
File `ttctexa.cls' not found.

This file is, however, in 
/texlive/2012/texmf-dist/doc/latex/tlc2

is it not found, because LyX needs a layout file of it?
Or do I have to set a PATH?

If there is no layout file available, would it be better to use e.g.
LaTeXDraw and a latex file instead of LyX?

I think the problem is how you generate LaTeX output.  I don't think
that pstricks works with pdflatex.  I think you need to go via ps
(postscript) - so export to pdf as ps2pdf

yes, I am aware of it.

no:

this file is found under
/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/doc/latex/tlc2

I guess I have to include it in the .profile file

but don't know how ()

export =/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/doc/latex/tlc2

My book is almost ready. What I still need is three maps (Spitsbergen on the 
northern hemisphere - for this I wanted to use from PSTricks  Example 25-6-1
and the area around Ny Alesund/Kungsfjord and the area Andorra/Pyrenees  
(don't know yet whether the Europe maps in the geo package of PSTricks are 
suited). Since the maps I have now are copyright, I thought to use the geo 
package of PSTricks. But I have spent so much time now that I think I just 
draw all three by hand and scan them.

It never quite worked for me, but you might try to use LaTeXDraw to
build the pstricks code and generate, say, a PDF image that you could
readily include in your document.

Problem with PSTricks an LYX

[Jorge Mario Garcia]

Good morning
My problem is:
I want to use the command

  \readdata{\funcion}{dtos2.txt}

 but LYX creates a temporary file where you saved the *. tex, the problem is
that my file dtos2.txt not is in the  same folder and lyx generates an
error.

I try to include it as an attachment, but LyX formats are already in place
and do not let me, and shows an error.

Can you help me?

pstricks and lyx question

[Ben White]

Hello Lyxers--

 

I just joined up with Lyx and was wondering if some kind soul might help
me with an issue I am working on.  Basically, I have a program that
spits out pstricks decision trees.  I turned to lyx as an alternative
means of getting my trees done since my tex abilities are well somewhat
wanting.  

 

When I try to convert the tree to .dvi, pdf, etc. in Lyx, I get multiple
errors.

 

Would someone be able to help me get started on debugging this beast?
Attached is the pstricks file.

The numerous errors I get in Lyx lead me to think something may be a wee
bit amiss.

 

Many thanks,

Isn't there a correspondinf pdftricks package that makes pstricks

There is also pgf (I think its a part of beamer) that works with both ps and

I agree with Herbert. Furthermore, PSTricks easily and perfectly
produce pdf output as long as one uses the package ps4pdf.

Rich,

Indeed, PSTricks can be used within LyX and PSTricks is very powerful
with creating figures and plots for use in LaTeX documents and beamer.
I do not know about any HOWTO for LyX users, but the following site
has quite a lot of examples:

http://www.pstricks.de/

Try to start off with implementing one of the simplest examples there
with LyX and you will end up, after a short time, able to use PSTricks
within LyX. There is also a mailing list for PSTricks. I can send you
an example of a LyX file with a PSTricks figure, in case you want it.

Using Pstricks Within LyX

[Rich Shepard]

  From reading the pstricks manual I learn that it will do a great job of
creating figures and plots for use in LaTeX documents and beamer

Thanks,
Rich
