Hi,
I am new to Lyx and just tried it to use it with Lilypond.
In LyX I do: File> New from Template, then navigate up one directory,
select the examples/ directory, and select lilypond.lyx.
I tested with Mac and the file lilypond.lyx was not in the folder
I tested with Windows, I could find the file but when i open it, I get a
message saying:
"the module lilypond requires a package that is not available in your
LaTeX installation.
LaTeX out may not be possible"
Shouldn't MyTeX install any package that are not installed automatically?
My configuration is:
- Lyx 2.0 beta 1
- MyTeX 2.9
- Lilypond 2.13.39
thanks,
Marc
Hi Marc,
The error message is misleading. The module requires a "lytex to latex"
converter (i.e., the lilypond-book program) but no specific LaTeX
package. We should fix this.
Is "lilypond-book" in your PATH? It must be found by LyX at configure
time. Could you please make sure it is in your PATH, reconfigure LyX
(Tools > reconfigure), restart LyX and try again?
To specify your PATH either modify the environment variable or the PATH
prefix in LyX Tools > Preferences > Paths
Let us know how this goes!
Thanks,
Regards,
Julien
