Select lines 2-4 and change their environment depth (the button just to the
left of the Tex button);
Select lines 2&3, and change their environment from enumerate to itemize;
Select line 4 and change its environment to standard.

This may not be the most correct way, but it works well enough.

Hope this helps,
Adrian.

ps There's loads of info on this sort of thing in the User's guide under
"nested environments".

Re: TeX-mode text color (dark red) configurable?

In 1.1.5fix2 (and fix1) you can do

\set_color "latex" "pink"

The list of color is only available for now in src/LColors.C. However,
the first example of section 3.7.4 proposes exactly a solution for
what you are asking :)

You mean, the footnotes and the list text will be overwritten by each
other? I have same problem with long wide equations and equation
numbers: a wide equation will be written over the equation number at the
right edge of paper. Any solutions to this one?

I have seen some books (which seem to be typesetted with TeX, eg. Digital
Speech Coding by Kondoz), and in them the equation number in these cases
is moved slightly downward so that it doesn't go over the equation. Now,
1) Can I do this in LyX automatically (how?)
2) If not, how can I do it manually?

It is a unwanted side effect I did not consider. I puppose the reason is,
that the (for you annoying) extra space between list elements is not
inserted at the end of a page.

One solution could be to set only the space above to a negative value (I did
not check what happens for the fist item), or may be split the negative
value to half above half below.

The other  solution would be to set the extra space back
to zero for the last item on a page.(not very clever, becouse you have to
find out what where the pagebreak is and this may also change if more text
is inserted)

maybe there is also a change to find out the name of the itemsep in the list
environment. then it could be changed analog to enumerate or itemize. (But I
dont know)

what about T2 fonts?

2000-10-25 Thread ceo

Just starting with LyX and LaTex , I learned for T2 font package that allows using of 
cyrillic fonts. There was not difficult to make simple tex file using this package an 
to print a good optput page with cyrillic text on it. Could I do it with LyX?

AFAIK cyrilic works well even without T2 (I use it in that way). Am I wrong ?

You just need to change the layout of the "Continuation of.." paragraph to
"Standard", and change its depth with the "Change env. depth" icon in the
toolbar.

Spelling mistake - 3rd attempt

2000-10-25 Thread david.lomas




This is my third go at posting this message, but as I haven't seen hide
nor hair of the others, I'm presuming nobody else has either. Appologies
if you have seen it before...

I have just noticed a spelling mistake in my document printed from LyX
1.1.5fix1. Basically, I've got lots of figures which I've inserted into
the document using figure-floats. The captions look like "Figure 3.4:" on
screen, but when printed, they all come out "Fogure 3.4:", etc. This is
the case in .dvi and .ps. References to figures in the main text are OK,
as is the "List of Figures" at the beginning of the document (rather than
the "List of Fogures", which would currently be more accurate!). I can't
believe I've never noticed before, but it seems to have been going on for
some time. My PhD thesis is due in in 2 days, so I really need help quick!

Many thanks for any pointers...

Stressed Dave.





Contract package for LyX

2000-10-25 Thread Matej Cepl

Hi,

I have created a basis for a new class for contract writing
(style is according to the Czech tradition, I am not sure how to
write American contracts). It will be available on
http://www.volny.cz/cepls/ps-pdf/contract-*.tar.gz when template
will be created (without it is close to useless). For now it is
attached to this message.

However, I have some things which I am not able to create in
order to put them in footer:

-- filename of the document (either .lyx one or .ps)
-- some formatting of date (I would love to have something like
 25.10.2000, 22:35 -- which is today; oh, well, it was
 yesterday :-).

May anybody help me?

fix2 for Win32

2000-10-25 Thread Claus Hentschel

The current release now is available for Win32, too. As usual have a look
at:

http://www.fh-hannover.de/mbau/tim/hentschel/lyx/index.htm

Many new enhancements have been made to LyX for Win32:

1) LyX now is based completely on CygWin 1.1 and seems to be more stable
than before!

2) LyX uses the Registry to store the environment so editing shell script
and batch files isn't necessary anymore.

3) LyX behaves a little bit more like a Win32 application, i.e. the
disturbing command line window (always present when running LyX) has been
gone!

4) The Setup procedure is rewritten and takes into account the experiences
from troubleshooting the last releases.

Happy lyxing
Claus
