Define an additional InsetLayout for captions
I want to insert figures in the page margins in my book.
In order to have two figures one above the other, with each one having its own
caption and label, I want to create inside lyx the following latex code:
\usepackge{sidenotes,subcaption} % (<- in the preamble)
\begin{marginfigure}
\centering
\subcaptionbox{caption for upper figure \label{upperfig}}
{\includegraphics[width=\marginparwidth]{image1.png}}
\subcaptionbox{caption for lower figure \label{lowerfig}}
{\includegraphics[width=\marginparwidth]{image1.png}}
\caption{Big Caption for two figures}
\label{fig:physicsfig}
\end{marginfigure}
I copied to my layout the Float Style from tufte-book.layout. It defines a
marginfigure environment.
I am now struggling a bit with the \subcaptionbox command:
1. I can define a new Caption which is based on "InsetLayout Caption:Standard"
found in the stdinsets.inc file. But I can't see it in the Insert menu, not
even inside Custom Insets.
2. Let's say I overcome this issue, is it possible to make it "sensible" only
inside the marginfigure environment?
3. If I don't want captions for the subfigures, then I don't need the
\subcaption command. And then the include graphics doesn't have to be wrapped
with {}. But if I change my mind and want a caption, then I do need the {}
around the figure. Any idea how to handle it nicely?
Thanks very much!

"Unfloat" figures and captions
I've a series of nine figures in an appendix. Each is in a section as a floating figure. My mistake. The list of sections is printed after the appendix head, but the figures all follow rather than being in their section of the appendix/chapter. Is there a way to unfloat them other than deleting everything and starting over? Rich

It seems like every desire anyone has in LaTeX, somebody pops up with a package to do it. But how does one discover that package? Is there an algorithm to go from a need to solution by package discovery? Given LaTeX code, I can hammer away at it, do research, and eventually modify it to do what I need. I can describe the process pretty much in English. But I don't begin to understand how people can hear a need and instantly know "you need the XYZ package."

There is also an unofficial module listed here, to the same effect:

Yes, but you need to use the sidecap package. To integrate it on LyX you
can use a "Local format" (Document → Settings → Local format), something
like this (I'm using 2.3 here, for 2.2 use "Format 60" instead)
Format 66
AddToPreamble
\usepackage{sidecap} % added by sidecap.module
\let\SCfigurename\figurename
EndPreamble
Float
Type SCfigure
GuiName "Figure (side caption)"
Placement tbp
Extension loscf
NumberWithin none
Style plain
ListCommand empty
ListName "List of Figures (side caption): does nothing, use List of Figures
instead"
RefPrefix fig
IsPredefined 1
UsesFloatPkg 0
End
Float
Type SCtable
GuiName "Table (side caption)"
Placement tbp
Extension losct
NumberWithin none
Style plain
ListCommand empty
ListName "List of Tables (side caption): does nothing, use List of Tables
instead"
RefPrefix tab
IsPredefined 1
UsesFloatPkg 0
End
Now, under Insert → Float you'll have "Figure (side caption)" and "Table
(side caption)". The side-captioned figures will integrate with the normal
ones, so just use the normal index of figures to list them (and all the
others).

You can delete the caption box inside the float without problems, resulting
on a floating figure without caption. To insert several figures inside a
float you can just do that, or even insert another float inside the float
to get several "sub-figures", LyX will recognize the situation
automatically.

Figure captions
Hi Is it possible to place captioned figures side by side rather than vertically? It is possible to place graphics, without captions, side by side. Figure captions seem only to be used in floats. Attempts to copy to a box produces senseless! Regards Frank Salter

Hello everybody!
I have on problem with reference list. I havenly five references. So this
isn't that bad problem. It can be done also some ugly manual way.
I want to get list as
/1/ reference
/2/ reference
instead Lyx always generates
[1] reference
[2] reference
So how that is changed?
Another problem is that the appear in same order as in text and I want them
in alphabetically ordered by last name. And the format is
Last name, First name, Title, [doctype], URL, date of retrieval
Is there any style that does this or what is the right way to do this?

When you enter the text you want, move the cursor to the line above it and enter the figure. When you create a table float, enter the caption then put the cursor on the following row before inserting the table. You can then change the environment to LyX code if you wish. Rich

When you create a table float, enter the caption then put the cursor on the following row before inserting the table. You can then change the environment to LyX code if you wish. Rich

Re: Figure numbers and the figure captions overlap in list of figures
Hi,
I found the solution...
tocloft doesn't work properly with some of the classes...
I used titletoc instead.. .
\usepackage{titletoc}
\dottedcontents{figure}[4.5em]{}{3em}{0.75em}
\dottedcontents{table}[4.5em]{}{3em}{0.75em}
it worked fine..

Figure numbers and the figure captions overlap in list of figures
Dear all, In my report, figures and tables are numbered in chapter.x format and I have a problem with list of figures and list of tables that I include using Insert-List/TOC-. The problem is that for all the figures/tables that have more than one digit after the decimal place (means from 10th figure or table), the captions and the figure numbers overlap in list of figures and list of tables. The figures and tables that have single digit after the decimal place, are perfectly fine. Also within the chapters at the place where figures/tables appear, there is no problem. Can anyone help to solve this please? Nagaraj

Justify captions in figure floats
Is it posible to justify the width of some captions in a book project to the width of the figure? The book has two columns. All figures are placed inside floats. Some figures are wide and span columns, but do not entirely fill the text width. With the standard settings captions fill the text width, even if the figure doesn’t. I think it would look better in these cases if the caption had the same width as the figure. I have looked on the Floatrow package but is seemed very complicated. If it is possible to achieve some examples would be appreciated!

Re: Justify captions in figure floats
The box is a good solution, Thank You!
I came up with a similar, but perhaps not as good solution: activate the
captions package in the preamble and give an ERT command just before the
caption: \captionsetup{margin=xcm,xcm} where x is the distance from the
text margin, left and right. I have to experiment here too. The box
solution is perhaps better, since it combines image and caption.

Re: Captions... can't be justified
It seems that by default captions are centered when they're less than one line
long, and justified when they're longer than one line. The best bet to change
this appears to be the caption package. Try adding this to your document's
preamble:
\usepackage[singlelinecheck=off]{caption}

Point size for captions
Dear all:
I'm using the following setting to control the point-size and
line-space of my text:

This works fine for me, except when it comes to captions for
photographs. The spacing between lines looks too much.
Can you kindly let me know how to reduce the line-space between
captions only, while retaining 10/14 for the rest of the text? Many

captions to graphics are sometimes centred and sometimes not
Using 1.6.5 on ubunto 9..10, and komascript book, I have some photographs
insert in floats. Each photograph has a caption. Sometimes the captions are
centred on the page, and sometimes they are left justified- and I can see no
difference whatsoever in the procedure I adopted (Insert float, + insert
graphics) or in the source code. The only difference is that some captions
are longer than others.
For instance, this is centred:
% Preview source code for paragraph 43
%
\begin{figure}[H]
\includegraphics[width=3.65in]{bolzano_esterno}
\caption{La sala del commiato a Bolzano.}
\end{figure}
And this is left justified:
% Preview source code for paragraph 45
%
\begin{figure}[H]
\includegraphics[width=3.65in,height=2.3in]{bolzano_crocefisso}
\caption{Bolzano, il catafalco. ~Da notare i simboli religiosi non \protect
\\
sono fissi. }
\end{figure}
Wherein lies the difference?

Can't reproduce it here. Can you post a barebones example (minimal LyX
file)?
I notice that you are not centering the images within the floats, so the
images will be left-justified. When I do it here, though, the captions
are centered. (Also, the second caption is a single line here. Is it
supposed to be two lines for you?)

graphics) or in the source code. The only difference is that some captions
are longer than others.
For instance, this is centred:

\begin{figure}[H]
\includegraphics[width=3.65in]{bolzano_esterno}
\caption{La sala del commiato a Bolzano.}

\begin{figure}[H]
\includegraphics[width=3.65in,height=2.3in]{bolzano_crocefisso}

Can't reproduce it here. Can you post a barebones example (minimal LyX
file)?
I notice that you are not centering the images within the floats, so the
images will be left-justified. When I do it here, though, the captions
are centered. (Also, the second caption is a single line here. Is it
supposed to be two lines for you?)

TOC spaces with alnumsec / no new page after chapter(part) / space after and before captions / one and half spacing (word)
Hello guys,
I've stated using lyx about two months ago, and mostly try to help myself
via internet and Koma-Script documentation, but I'm still a beginner and
lack some understanding with latex. This is a long email with a lot of
information for 4 problems. Please tell me if it would be wiser to split it
up in four emails.
For my momentary homework I'stuck with a couple of problems I can't find a
satisfying solution. I hope you can help me on these. There are some fixed
layout rules for German law homeworks, I'll need to stick to them, even
though they screw up the layout.
I use document-class: report (koma-script). The version is the repository
installed somewhat older version of koma for Ubuntu.
Problem 1:
I use the package alnumsec to change the caption numbering the way I need
it. This increases the space in the the space between number and title in
the table of contents, how can I undo this (the annex picture should clarify
my problem).
Preamble:
\usepackage{alnumsec}
\surroundarabic[(][)]{}{.}
\otherseparators{6}
\alnumsecstyle{LRnldg}
Problem 2:
As I need a lot of sections for a law homework, I need to use chapter and if
possible part as additional sections. I have a maximum space of 25 pages, so
space is limited. How can I stop chapter and part from starting a new page.
Problem 3:
Out of the same reason as Problem 2 I want to limit space before and after
all captions to the normal space between lines. My goal is font size 12,
bold, OneHalf space between lines for all captions (From part to
subparagraph).
I use smallheading as a documentclass - option upto now, but it still
takes too much space. I've tried renewcommand for the space before and after
chapter, but I'd like to understand how I can tell lyx to reduce spaces to
the OneHalf line spacing in the normal text:
\renewcommand*{\chapterheadstartvskip}{\vspace{-1.0cm}}
\renewcommand*{\chapterheadendvskip}{\vspace{0.5cm}}
Problem 4:
As it is required I need the OneHhalf space between all lines Open Office
and word use. Now if I use font size 12 Times Roman and OneHalf line
spacing in lyx, and Times New Roman and OneHalf line spacing in Open
Office I get different line spaces if the document is exported as a pdf. I
tried using setspace, but it didn't change to the required space:
\usepackage{setspace}
\onehalfspacing
Is this a known problem? Otherwise I'll just set the line spacing to an
individual distance, after visual judgement.
Sorry for the long mail. I'd be really grateful if someone could help me
out.
Thanks ahead,
Axel

Captions
Hi!
Does anybody know, how can get rid of the indentations in my float caption
texts (for both figures and tables)?
Figure 1: Now my text looks like this,
here begins the 2nd line of the caption.
Figure 2: And I would like to have something like
this, where there isn't an indent in the 2nd line.
Document-class: book(KOMA-script)
LYX version 1.6.3 for Windows.
I have tried different things I found on the internet, both ERT and
commands for the preamble but so far nothing has worked out - either
nothing happens or I get lots and lots of errors. I have looked in the
KOMA-manual but I just don't undrstand it- I basically needs an
explanation for dummies :D
It should be mentioned that I already have this defined in the preamble:
\usepackage[dvips=false%
,pdftex=false%
,vtex=false%
,twoside%
,papersize={170mm,240mm}% --- A4 with 20mm cut on both sides and 28.8mm
cut top and bottom
,hdivide={24mm,*,24mm}% --- 122mm text width, 24mm margin both sides (no
binding edge!)
,vdivide={11.5mm,*,17.5mm}% --- 28.5+11.5=40mm from top of A4 to text
(46mm at bottom)
,includehead%
,includefoot%

Re: Captions
Hi,
the most effective way (as far as I know) to customise float capions is to
use the package caption which provides several options.
I use it in connection withLyX and the KOMA script report class and I obtain
what I want.
If it is not included in your LaTeX distribution you can download it from:
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/caption/
and install in your computer.
Then in you preamble you should put the following lines:
\usepackage{caption}
\captionsetup[table]{format=plain,skip=\medskipamount} % for tables
\captionsetup[figure]{format=plainskip=\medskipamount} %for figures
Check the documentation with all the options you can use at
http://www.ctan.org/get/macros/latex/contrib/caption/caption-eng.pdf

Re: Captions
Hi,
the most effective way (as far as I know) to customise float capions is to
use the package caption which provides several options.
I use it in connection withLyX and the KOMA script report class and I obtain
what I want.
If it is not included in your LaTeX distribution you can download it from:
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/caption/
and install in your computer.
Then in you preamble you should put the following lines:
\usepackage{caption}
\captionsetup[table]{format=plain,skip=\medskipamount} % for tables
\captionsetup[figure]{format=plainskip=\medskipamount} %for figures
Check the documentation with all the options you can use at
http://www.ctan.org/get/macros/latex/contrib/caption/caption-eng.pdf
Best wishes

I am using
\setcapindent{0mm}
in the preamble
under book(KOMA-script) ( LYX version 1.6.3 for Linux)
