What version of LyX do you use? There were some fixes for maxima in 2.4.4.
LyX 2.5 contains also example file Computer_Algebra_Systems.lyx where we try
to track examples what currently works with CAS.

If what you need is not there you might want to file a bug with example lyx
file showing exact formulas which you would like to work.

Help with using CAS math like Maxima?

2025-11-07 Thread fcanatay 
I don’t know if you are using this notation intentionally, but the symbol for 
matrix multiplication in maxima is a “dot” as in “full stop”, not “\cdot” as 
your picture seems to show. When you use “\cdot”, maxima does component-wise 
multiplication.

Similarly, maxima uses “^^n”, not “^n”, for raising a matrix to n'th power. So, 
your matrix to the power of -1 in lyx is not the matrix inverse for maxima, if 
your intention was inverting the matrix. With “^-1", maxima calculates 
component-wise inverses (reciprocals).

Thanks for the explanation, I've downloaded the new TeXLive 2025 now, and i
tried to reconfigure LyX to it automatically by using the reconfigure
option under tools, it seems like it didn't work as it still shows in the
path under tools -> preferences that it uses the 2024 version, to manually
update it is just to change the 4 to 5 in 2024? or are there other things i

TexLive has been updated to 2025, whereas you are using the 2024 edition. The 
default repository now refers to the 2025 edition, and the TeXlive Manager 
cannot find the 2024 repository there. So you should either upgrade to 2025, or 
set the repository to a 2024 one.

Exactly how you will do this depends upon what TeX installation you are using: 
MikTeX or TeXLive. Depending which it is, pages like this one:

that way.

Then you will need to reconfigure LyX, so it knows about the new files.

Q2: When I do open the Springer template in LyX how do I move the contents of 
my *.lyx book manuscript into the Springer template?

You may not need to do that: Just change the document class under Document>

ways, but that should not be too bad. If you want, you can File> Import the

Actually this is simple if you know it (it took me a while to figure out).

You simply use (Kindle Create) to export your pdf file to kindle format
(.kpf). While creating your kpf file you are given three options - choose
the third one (print replica). This option will ask you for your pdf file
and not Word. I used this to create my book on Amazon:

If you do not urgently need the KOMA way for some reason, I'd recommend
implementing this via the float package, as this is fully supported in
LyX (you get a "Liste des photos" inset for free). See attached module.

Adding preamble code only if a float is used is currently not yet
supported, see

Hi, 


I'm working with version 2.4.1 on Windows 10. 
This module is intended for use with KomaScript classes. 


I'd like to add a new ‘photo’ type float using the features of the KomaScript 
family. I'm having two problems: 


1) As you can see in the attached "floating_photo.module" file, the code placed 
in the body between the ‘float’ and ‘end’ tags is not taken into account when 
pdflatex is exported. I have to place this part of the code between the 
"AddToPreamble" and "EndPreamble" tags for it to work... However, I'd really 
like to include all this in a larger file, and I'd like the code to be 
incorporated only if this type of float is actually used in the document... 


2) With this way of doing things, which I haven't mastered at all, because I'm 
having a hard time understanding the available documentation, I don't currently 
have the possibility of nesting two floats of this type in lyx in the usual way 
of figure and sub-figure... 

Can anyone help me? 

All the best.

The thing here is that starting from version 6.5 Qt "supports" dark theme
by following your system theme and starting from version 6.7 Qt even uses
the ui style "windows11" by default which (also) has a dark theme. So you
end up with that style and dark theme if your system is set to dark. You
can avoid it by choosing a different ui style, which does not have a dark
theme, in the preferences -> user interface -> user interface style. The
only style *without* dark theme is "windowsvista" though, it was the
default style on Windows in Qt versions pre 6.7. I usually compile with the
newest Qt version for Windows, so LyX 2.4.0 and newer uses Qt version 6.7
and newer so that is why you get the dark theme now.

That is the one you want. Is "Use System Colors" checked?

If so, I would suggest trying with a new user directory. You can move 
your existing one. (Location at About> LyX.)

I tried to reverse the colors. One can use the general settings to 
change the colors, but it took me to long, so I keep the default values.


You can change the color of the text and the background, but get 
problems with rest like marks, inserts and so on. Sometimes those 
"extras" are barely readable on a bright background.

You’d need symlinks if you wanted to keep user files (e.g., the personal 
spelling dictionary files pwl_english.dict) for LyX 2.3.x and LyX 2.4.y in 
sync, as they are in separate directories under ~/Library/Application Support.

It’s not clear what you are asking. There should be no problem installing both 
versions on your machine. But it is usually the case that you can’t smoothly 
edit the same document with different versions of LyX, as there are usually 
changes in the .lyx file format from version to version. (There’s usually no 
problem importing documents created from older versions of LyX into newer 
versions but vice versa is usually (always?) problematic.)

If all you want to do is install both versions of LyX, then, assuming you 
currently have LyX 2.3.8 installed, just open the Applications folder on your 
machine and rename LyX.app to “LyX 2.3.8.app” and then install LyX 2.4. I think 
the only issue is that LyX 2.3.8 will look in ~/Library/Application 
Support/LyX-2.3 for its support files (personal bind files, personal spellcheck 
files, etc) and LyX 2.4 will look in ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-2.4 so 
those could get out of sync. (You could probably create symlinks in your 
LyX-2.3 folder to keep things in sync but you can kick that can down the road 
for now.)

LyX wizards might be appalled at something I’ve said here...

We have some mention of .gp files in user guide of lyx 2.5:
https://www.lyx.org/trac/export/f3c5ff9cb72c5231f1e1e81452e67d6f12dadecb/lyxgit/lib/doc/UserGuide.lyx

You can edit the footnote about gnuplot (with lyx 2.4 if you have it) to 
mention the
template in wiki page and its advantage - then send the update of the UG to me, 
I'll commit it.

Yes, it would be good if it gets tested on other systems (It works here
nicely on Ubuntu 22.04.4 with LyX 2.4.0~RC4 and gnuplot 5.4 patchlevel

Apart from that, I could upload your scripts into wiki upload section

Hi thanks for the responses they have been most useful. I have a few questions 
below:

 I have decided to use the Manchester Uni thesis format as its very near the 
London Uni version.  I think I am running into unnecessary difficulties because 
I am using my existing directory structure and Lyx  has a preferred in 
/Library/Application Support/Lyx-2.3.  I have not found a preferred structure 
is there one?
 I am stripping out the bits I don’t want from the Thesis Template such as  
figures , headings , labels etc all have an index of some form where should 
these be stored &  how do I ensure these are reset or can I copy the template 
into the template subdirectory , which is currently empty and then start a new 
doc from this.
 I have loaded revtex4-1 into the shared area subdir but cannot see it from the 
Doc/settings in the lyx main menu should it be there?
 I like the use of Letterine for the first char of a section, how is this 
\lettrine{I}{n}and the following invoked :--   Figure~\ref{shuffle_diagram}; 
\label{Shuffle} and where is the definitions of these –I have not found (yet) 
where this is described an indication where I could look would be helpful. I 
suspect they are under the Lyx-Code environment in the dropdown top lefthand 
side of menu – but there is no list below it.

 Sorry for these simple questions but I need to complete this soon

 

Many Thanks

I got it myself after a lot of trying and comparing:

In my file gnuplot.xtemplate I wrote "InputFormat gp", because
"InputFormat" and FileFilter extension are the same in the case of Xfig
(fig) and Inkscape (svg), but not with gnuplot: "InputFormat gnuplot"
and FileFilter .gp works!

For anyone interested I attached my working gnuplot.xtemplate.

Help with gnuplot xtemplate needed

2024-04-19 Thread Tobias Hilbricht 
Dear LyX-user,

I would like to have a gnuplot xtemplate. To that end I wrote a shell
script gnuplot2pdftex.sh like this:

#!/bin/bash
GnuplotFile=$1
BaseName=`basename $GnuplotFile .gp`
GnuplotName=$BaseName.ptx
LyxName=$BaseName.pdf_tex
gnuplot -e "set term cairolatex pdf ; set output '${GnuplotName}' "
$GnuplotFile
mv $GnuplotName $LyxName

This script works on the command line, and I can input the resulting
file gnuplot.pdf_tex in LyX, and if I put it in a preview box I get a
preview, and the document compiles.

However, if I have similar scripts for pstex, png and eps in
~/.lyx/scripts and define converters like this:

\converter "gnuplot" "pdftex2" "$$s/scripts/gnuplot2pdftex.sh $$i $$o"
"needauth"

and have a file gnuplot.xtemplate written after the model of
inkscape.xtemplate in ~/.lyx/xtemplate, then preview fails and there is
no image in the compiled document.

Despite a defined converter for pdftex and pstex I get error messages
with lyx -dbg graphics related to convert:

Execution of "convert" failed.
Systemcall.cpp (306): Systemcall: 'python3 -tt "/usr/local/share/lyx-

I've learned that the error is in biber's processing of the bibliography.
The biber error log is in the attached image and I have no idea how to 
use

it to find why mwe.bcf is malformed.



Rich,
that is the deafult behaviour if you have a problem in a LaTeX run
and the created helper files for biber are corrupt. Simply ignore it,
and run the _document_ again. If it doesn't help then delete the
file mwe.bcf, which is a BiberConfigFile.

I've not successfully built a MWE; each time I remove text either above or
below the highlighted error the document compiles successfully. The
unmodified doc doesn't.

Attached is an image of the highlighted line and following text along with
the error reporting box, and the complete error log file. I do not see the
error there.

I need help identifying the source of this error. FWIW, the doc built

How can I obtain line numbers as an aid for locating errors?

There are still chapter header and ToC issues (no chapter numbers in the

If the export is working properly, then I'd try running LyX from a

there are verbosity flags you can set somewhere, try setting those.

Hello.

I'm trying to follow this guide

So I've followed the guide, changed a few options to the highlight command  (

When trying to produce pdf output, I get the error

But to me, it seems I have defined a converter in Preferences

I have the file  /tmp/a.sql that I want to include and this is the result I get

is somewhat out of date. I don't know how well it would work with the 
current file format.


Your best option may be to export the file to some more common format, 
and use a grammar checker on that. E.g., you can export to LaTeX and 
then use pandoc to convert to Word or whatever. Or you can export to 
XHMTL, and then open that in Libre Office.

Grammar Checking -- noob help!

2022-12-06 Thread Dan 
I'm writing what is essentially going to be a small text in Physics with a
lot of high end Mathematics, so a good Science grammar checker would be a
nice idea.  I found the LyX wiki and the lyx-cg system.  Are there other
options?  I'm also looking at Grammarly but I'm not sure it can handle the
kind of language help I might need.

Let's say I go with the lyx-cg idea.  (Which is why I'm posting this here.
:) )  I have a few questions.
1)  Is lyx-cg up to date?  I'm noticing that the Github files are as much
as 8 years old.

2)  If I have to buy something I'd prefer to buy it outright.  langaugetool
charges per month.  Is there any way around this?

3)  But the main problem is the actual lyx-cg file.  I have it on Github,
but what do I do with it?  I was expecting to download a file and extract
it.   But it's giving me a list of files with their codes, not something I
can download?

Sorry, I'm a bit of a noob.  I could use a hand.

Thanks!

I had this problem with unity at least.

Kornel


my is on the notebook sddm, on the PC Mint lightdm

I checked the former, it was up to date (removed stuff not used anymore)

There was an additional white control line on top of the desktop which I 
removed.


Starting from a terminal
$ lyx24x
qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 5 (BadAtom), sequence: 597, 
resource id: 0, major code: 20 (GetProperty), minor code: 0

Warning: 609: Format not supported.
Warning: Quitting.
Error: Dokumentformat-Fehler

but shows lyx. And, heureka, it has the missing top!

loading examples/de/welcome.lyx works alright

loading another file gives
/tmp/lyx_tmpdir.PrXtIVAGvvMT/Buffer_convertLyXFormatetZcbC.lyx ist kein 
lesbares LyX-Dokument.

Must inquire why. Perhaps remove the tmpdir?

Glad that lyx is now showing its normal appearance. Thanks for help and 
patience, especially Kornel and Jürgen


Yours,
Wolfgang

I tried the same (e.g. lyx -dbg gui) but using also non-existing userdir.

That's OK.


My userdir is in /home/wolfgang

Wolfgang


1.) userdir is the directory where lyx stores its configuration files. (And 
where your
created modules etc will reside.
1a) You can find there *.lst, cache, lyxrc.defaults, preferences, etc.
2.) How could it come to the output /A-SP-WITTE-E-2022FEB21-Master.lyx ??


could you explain this?


Kornel


so it is apparently not there:
wolfgang@Fuji:~$ find -iname 'userdir*'
wolfgang@Fuji:~$ find -iname '*userdir*'
wolfgang@Fuji:~$ sudo find -iname '*userdir*'
[sudo] Passwort für wolfgang:
wolfgang@Fuji:~$

I have in the meantime used my PC with Mint instead of my Debian 
notebook and installed there the lyx 2.4.0dev as lyx24x

It is alright and the uppermost line with (top) the loaded lyx file
below the line with Datei Bearbeiten Ansicht ... Hilfe
(both lines in grey) are diplayed.

These two lines are missing in my notebook Debian.
There must be something fundamentally wrong.

What was your exact value for userdir? The string
/home/wolfgang/Dokumente/PUBLIKATIONEN-EIGENE/A-SP-2022/A-SP-WITTE-E-2022FEB21-Master.lyx
is totally weird for a userdir.

I see nothing suspicious. Does LyX 2.3 show the menu? Do other Qt
applications?

Remove them and try again. Though I don't think it will help.

Re: Help! How do I get the File-Edit-View....Help menu back

2022-02-28 Thread Wolfgang Engelmann via lyx-users 

This is the current situation for my debian lyx newly installed:
I have installed lyx 2.4.0-dev anew in the following way:
0- sudo chmod 01777 /usr/local
1- git clone git://git.lyx.org/lyx
2- lyx_git_2021-12-07.tar.gz results
3- unpacked: Lyx_git_20211207
4- in .git branches git status
5- git pull
6- .configure --with version-suffix=24x --bindir=/usr/local/bin
(the new lyx name will be lyx24x; its bindir will be /usr/local/bin)
7- make all
8- make install

It works if I start with lyx24x on a terminal

!However, I have still no File-Edit-ViewHelpMenu !

Do I have to wait for the 2.4.0 release or is something wrong with my setup?

No. But you could try to remove
~/.config/LyX/lyx*.conf



I'd suggest moving those files rather than RE-moving them, because they
might be needed later for "exploit the differences" type
troubleshooting, or just to restore the parts of the configuration that
work.

in .config of my home I have lyx.conf (of the former lyx 2.3x)
and lyx240.conf plus lyx240.conf.orig
I saved these separately.
In all three it tells by opening with an editor, that they contain lines 
longer than 4096 characters, which are longer as the limit allows.
When I had removed (after saving) it and started lyx204 anew the 
corresponding conf file started with a few lines, but after trying the 
lyx204 again it soon reached also the limit line length.


I do know nothing about the .conf file generally and the lyx conf 
particularly. The mentioned might be irrelevant...


Die Datei /home/wolfgang/Downloads/configLyx/lyx.conf ist geöffnet 
worden, enthält aber zu lange Zeilen (länger als das eingestellte 
Zeichenlimit von 4.096 Zeichen).

Die längsten Zeilen waren 4.926 Zeichen lang.
Die langen Zeilen sind umgebrochen worden und die Datei ist 
schreibgeschützt, da ein Speichervorgang die Datei verändern würde.


My plan is to compile the git-lyx again using now lyx24x as a name 
instead of lyx204, since I urgently need to work with my document.

2.) have you installed?

3.) if not, you should go to the build-directory and start lyx

The -sysdir command has nothing to do with your private data.
It should point to your installed lyx-data (probably at /usr/local/share/lyx2.4/

Not '-tester', use -userdir.

That way you can use new preferences without being afraid of to butcher
your old ones.

At least, we could see, if your settings are the culprit.

Kornel,
I am uncertain how to do this.
I have a new user tester and the name is Tester and it is added to the 
group wolfgang.

I start the new lyx by using lyx204.

There is also the '-sysdir' command line parameter error I had asked 
before (but did not get an answer so far)


Could you tell me how to do it?

Try:

* Alt+x to open the minibuffer (input widget on the bottom of the LyX
window)
* in the minibuffer, type "ui-toggle menubar" and hit enter

Right-click on the menu-panel, select Standard

You mean the icon with the 4 long bars?
right click has Standard selected, but no
File-Edit-ViewHelp menu
AND no menu panel
unless I also select Extra
but again no File-Edit-ViewHelp menu

Wolfgang


Forget it. I see, what you mean.
Is that lyx only missing the menu?

Kornel

   

probably more. e.g. I can't get
save as
(no icon for it)

Here is the terminal output.

2022-02-24 Thread Wolfgang Engelmann via lyx-users 

Would like to add:

I worked with this lyx before and it worked alright.

Should I use the git-lyx for the lyx2.0.4dev version and compile again?
