Dir Lyx-users and developers,
I get always errors, please help me.
I want to use the EXTERNAL TEMPLATE function.
I just want to copy a text file to lyx temp dir, so that I can use that
file containing data to plot a function with pgfplots. there is no need
to convert anything, just copy.
In the document, I want to have the code:
file{myfile.txt};
maybe a relative path from the lyx file like this:
file{textfiles\myfile.txt};
I have tryed this:
Template file(PgfPlots)
GuiName "file{myFName}"
HelpText
file input for pgfplots
HelpTextEnd
InputFormat txt
FileFilter "*.txt"
AutomaticProduction true
Format PDFLaTeX
Product "file{$$Basename.txt};"
UpdateFormat pdf
UpdateResult "$$Basename.txt"
Requirement "pgfplots"
FormatEnd
TemplateEnd
In the Lyx document I then have this
ERT:
\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis}[
\addplot
file{myfile.txt}; %Here I then use the external template input
ERT:
\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}
my problem is... I do not understand the documentation, so would you
please help me?
another question.. is there a difference between the lyx versions from
1.6 to 2.0?
I'm using windows at the moment.
and I'm bad english speaking german user :-)
Thanks for any help!
