Shorttoc tight problem
I would need a short version of the table of contents. With the package
shorttoc I could generate this condensed version of the table of contents
but with too much vertical space between the entries. Therefore I added the
option "tight"
\usepackage[tight]{shorttoc}
But there was no difference in the output. There is one line space between
every entry of the section level with the effect that even this short toc
version spans several pages. I can't see any difference between the options
"loose" or "tight".
Maybe it is important to say that I'm using the KOMA-Script class scrbook. I
looked into the manuals of both packages but I couldn't find any clue.
Any suggestions what I did wrong?

synctex and LyX?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi I just saw that synctex is working under linux with okular: just add the option -synctex=1 to the converter to PDF (pdflatex) and if you shift-click on any location in the resulting pdf in okular, it opens the specified LaTeX editor (configured in okular) at the location you clicked on - really cool. And guess what, there is even lyx as an editor. That is really great - and it works nicely. Thanks a lot Rainer By the way - is this mailing list dead?

how to make fragile frames in beamer layout
Hi, I am new to Lyx though have used latex before. I am creating a presentation in Lyx using the breamer class. I want to introduce some source code listings (using Insert -> Program Listing). Doing this leads to errors. I suppose this can be fixed if a beamer frame can be declared as fragile. I could not figure out any way to do this in the user interface. Does someone know how to fix this? Thanx a lot, - Shailesh

You need to use TeX-Mode: http://marc.info/?l=lyx-users&m=125957115114257&w=2 This is due to the fact how frames are defined in LyX.

LyX and Lilypond
Dear LyX-people This is my first time posting on the list as a new LyX user, so please excuse any stupid mistakes I might make or stupid questions I might ask! :-) For the record, I am using LyX 1.6.5 on Ubuntu 10.04. I would like to write music theory content for music students, and it seems that LyX natively supports the import of Lilypond files. However, since attempting to do so, I have not had any success. I was unable to find a reference to it in the installed LyX documentation. If anyone could help me to incorporate Lilypond code into a LyX document, I will be willing to send you some free fake digital non-existent chocolates via imagination mail. Or, if any subsequent versions of LyX have similar support, I would be even more grateful. Thanks Etienne

LaTeX -> LyX and \newcommand
Hi! I figured out a way to preprocess LaTeX files in order to eliminate dependency on \newcommands, using Python and plasTeX. My goal was to import a LaTeX file into LyX, but LyX was not able to understand all the \newcommands in the document, and therefore I wanted to preprocess the LaTeX file first. I used a python package called plasTeX for this. It is able to parse LaTeX files and will automatically expand the user-defined \newcommands that are used throughout the document. After the parsing, it can print the resulting LaTeX code back to a file. The resulting LaTeX file has very long lines, but can be imported into LyX very nicely! The resulting file still contains all the \newcommands at the top, but they are not actually used in the rest of the document, so they can simply be deleted manually. In this case it saved me a lot of hours time of manual editing within LyX if I had just imported the original LaTeX file. I'm I right in that such functionality is not built into LyX a the moment, and that there are no scripts on the lyx Wiki that accomplishes this? If this already exists, I'd want to know how to do it without plasTeX. If so, perhaps I should upload the script to the Wiki so that others can use it if they have to import a latex file into lyx which has a lot of \newcommands? Opinions? I have seen other requests for such functionality, e.g. here: http://www.latex-community.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=4680 -Torquil

I didn't understand exactly what you wanted to do, and I wouldn't even begin
to guess what you did or didn't do wrong, but here's how I tighten up the
table of contents in my layout file:
%%%
% ### Vertically denser table of contents
\renewcommand\tableofcontents{%
\...@twocolumn
\...@restonecoltrue\onecolumn
\else
\...@restonecolfalse
\fi
\chapter*{\contentsname
\...@mkboth{%
\MakeUppercase\contentsname}{\MakeUppercase\contentsname}}%
{
\normalsize\setlength{\parskip}{-6pt}\setstretch{0.9}%
% \normalsize\setlength{\parskip}{-8pt}\setstretch{0.8}%
\...@starttoc{toc}%
}
\...@restonecol\twocolumn\fi
}
%%%
I'm not smart enough to have written that. I copied the book document class's
implementation of command tableofcontents and simply tweaked its lengths. Note
that the setstretch{} command requires a special package, I think it's the
setspace package.

The music is of course present in PDF files produced with LyX. In this case you'd still have to edit your lilypond files externally. Or did you have something else in mind? I'm using LyX 1.6.7 and my Lilypond is v2.12.3. Torquil

I told you not to send TeX-files as direct email attachment because this often destroys the encoding. (4) appears here encoded in CP-1252.

Sorry if you get two of these... I forgot to use "Reply to all" in my email
client and my have already sent on copy just to you. This should go to the list
as well.
Let me try to explain better what I meant. I don't want those grey boxes of tex
code for each instance where a user-defined command is executed in the latex
document. I want my LyX file to look as if I had written everything in LyX
without use of any \newcommand.
The following LaTeX file captures the essence of the file I just had the
misfortune to work with:
\documentclass{article}
\newcommand{\bea}{\begin{equation}}
\newcommand{\eea}{\end{equation}}
\begin{document}
\bea
\int f(x) dx = 0
\eea
\end{document}
Importing this file into LyX results in a file where the math is not "rendered",
but instead the bare LaTeX math code is displayed between two grey boxes,
representing \bea and \eea.

By "expanding", I mean that "my" plasTeX script (if you can call it that when it
is just a few lines) will process the above latex file and essentially create this:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\begin{equation}
\int f(x) dx = 0
\end{equation}
\end{document}
When this is imported into LyX, the equation is interpreted correctly and
rendered in the usualy fasion as mathematics, with no grey boxes.

You can check you Lilypond version by executing "lilypond -v". Secondly, looking in my LyX preferences, I do find the following related to Lilypond: Under "File Handling -> File formats", I have the following entry in the "Formats" drop-down menu: "Lilypond music" The settings are: "Document format" not ticked "Vector graphics format" is ticked Short name; lilypond Extension: ly Shortcut: Editor: sensible-editor Viewer: Copier: The "sensible-editor" is something related to my operating system (Debian). I don't think it matters for the funcionality you are after.

I agree that this would be very pleasing, especially when working with

This is the simple python code which takes a filename as an argument, and
creates the file PlastexProcessed.tex
-
#!/usr/bin/python
# _*_ coding: UTF-8 _*_
import sys
from plasTeX.TeX import TeX
doc = TeX(file=sys.argv[1]).parse()
# The processed document is contained in the string doc.source
# Print to file
f = open('PlastexProcessed.tex', 'w')
f.write(doc.source.encode("utf-8"))
f.close()
*** Example:
It converts this:
--
\documentclass{article}
\newcommand{\be}{\begin{equation}}
\newcommand{\ee}{\end{equation}}
\begin{document}
\be
\int f(x) dx = 0
\ee
\end{document}
--
into this:
--
\documentclass{article}
\newcommand{\be }{\begin {equation}} \newcommand{\ee }{\end {equation}}
\begin{document} \begin{equation} \int f(x) dx = 0 \end{equation}
\end{document}
-
In the latter file, the \newcommands are not used in the text, so it is better
suited for LyX import. The \newcommands can be deleted manually. It tends to
make long lines, but that doesn't seem to matter for the subsequent LyX import.

In a few of the document classes I've written, this has allowed me to pass all kind of fragile commands (images, for examples in the texMemo class) while keeping the processor nice and happy.

landscape stops working!
Hello people, I hope someone out there can help me out please
I've got a piece of simple latex code in my lyx document,
\begin{landscape}
{\input{file.tex}}
\end{landscape}
and of course \usepackage{lscape} in the preamble
The file I'm inputting has a lot of floating tables (not lyx generated file)
The problem is that sometimes only the first table is in landscape mode, and not
the rest. It might have relation with the width of the table, still can't figure
it out, hopefully someone has an idea about it
thanks a lot

These are default (I checked for LyX 1.6.5 specifically), but you do need a recent version of lilypond installed, as mentioned by the previous useful message. Once installed, select Tools > Reconfigure from LyX's menus, and the lilypond converter should get configured automatically. Do restart LyX after reconfiguration. Cheers, Julien

More specifically (on Mac), open Terminal.app (in /Applications/Utilities/), and type: /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/MacOS/lyx -dbg action (assuming you have LyX.app in your /Applications directory, which it should be for Skim to work). A new instance of LyX will open, so make sure you've quit LyX before doing this. BH
Re: LaTeX -> LyX and \newcommand

Let me try to explain better what I meant. I don't want those grey boxes of tex
code for each
instance where a user-defined command is executed in the latex document. I want
my LyX file to look
as if I had written everything in LyX without use of any \newcommand.
The following LaTeX file captures the essence of the file I just had the
misfortune to work with:
\newcommand{\bea}{\begin{equation}}
\newcommand{\eea}{\end{equation}}
\begin{document}
\bea
\int f(x) dx = 0
\eea
Thanks, now I understand what you meant.
Such a feature is indeed very useful when collaborating with plain TeX users. I propose to create a
new Wiki page describing your method and attaching there your python script.
Create a new Wiki page in this Wiki space:
http://wiki.lyx.org/LaTeX/LaTeX
(To upload files, like your script you need a password. if you need this, mail me and I'll send it
to you privately.)
thanks in advance and best regards

Hi, did a new layout file eventually get written for agutex?
I wrote a layout file for agutex. It requires that you have the AguTeX files:
ftp://ftp.agu.org/journals/latex/journals/Manuscript-Preparation/
installed to your LaTeX system.
The layout file is attached together with a LyX example file. Please test it our and report back. If
it works for you, we can provide it together with the next LyX version.
