Jürgen, thanks again.
I looked at the stackexchange link. I copied the necessary code into my
preamble.
But I don't know where to insert commands \seti and \conti.
Especially \conti is problematic as I don't know how I can insert it between
"\begin{enumerate}" and the first "\item" commands.
I made a beamer minimal example file which I attach here.
I have two levels enumerated lists, practically one first level in each frame.
Could you please show me on my example file how and where to insert those
commands
exactly?
Thanks,
bcsikos

There's no need to insert the stackexchange code (in fact, this is not possible with LyX, as you noticed yourself). Instead, use the module I posted: http://marc.info/?l=lyx-users&m=138218324718365&w=2 If you use the new style "Enumerate-Resume" provided by the module, the necessary code will be inserted automatically. If you need to know how to install and use a "module", look here: http://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/Modules Jürgen

Well, in the first example, you use the style incorrectly: You have to use the style "Enumerate-Resume" for _the whole list_ which should start with a resumed number. In other words: Never mix normal Enumerate and Enumerate_Resume in a single list. > (And the level 2 labels are not correct either.

Bibliographies & hanging indents
Hello list members, Please bear with me as I'm newcomer to LyX. This seems simple but I can't find an answer to it. I'm using the Koma-script book class (LyX 2.0.6 on Mac OS X 10.7) and I'm typing the bibliography references manually from within LyX. I'm not using any external files or editors. (No time yet, I'll get to that later). Is it possible to change the format of the bibliographical references in order to have them typeset with a hanging indent, as is often done? I've found how to remove the label from the bibliographical references, as I don't need them, but I can't I can't get the hanging indent with manual entries. Thanks for any help anyone might be able to provide. Regards, Sebastien

I appreciate you pointing it out. However, in the current situation, I've set up the bibliography using the \setbibpreamble & \breakbibliography commands (with help from a kind contributor to this list) in order to have preambles and different sections within the bibliography.

This obviously needs more work. >I will have a look at this. What I want to achieve is making tests. The questions are numbered and each slide has one question. The answers below the questions are labeled by capital letters from A to D or E. I want to be able to rearrange the order of questions without changing the numbers manually. I also want to copy questions between documents. As a next step I also would like to highlight the correct answers, inlcuding the labels (if it is possible at all). I just described this because there might be other methods to make such documents than I tried to do so far. Thanks, bcsikos
babel vs. polyglossia
I have a question: When I compile a XeTeX document, babel will load – even though the language processing is done by polyglossia. Why is that so? Can I stop babel from loading? Thank you in advance, -- Bernd Kappenberg

I thought I could use a local layout and where I modify the
\begin{enumerate} and \end{enumerate} commands.
For example:
Style Beamer-Enumerate-Resume
CopyStyle Enumerate
LatexParam\conti
OptionalArgs 0
# a blue label to indicate that this is not a WYSIWYG label
# because the numbering differs in the output
LabelFont
Color blue
EndFont
End
This adds \begin{enumerate} \conti
at the beginning of the environment when Beamer-Enumerate-Resume is set.
But I don't know how I could modify the end of the environment:
to change "\end{enumerate}" to "\end{enumerate} \seti".
Is it possible?
I attach an example file which includes the above local layout.
I inserted "\seti" commands in ERT, and it work, but I would like
them to be inserted by the style.
Thanks,
bcsikos

LyX XMPP-Enhanced Chat
Hi all, I couldn't resist the temptation in the end, and I refined a bit that patch for a LyX Chat, going forward along the QXMPP path. I just attached the new patch to the original ticket: http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/7964 and being XMPP-based, it also interoperates nicely with Pidgin for example, as shown in the VIDEO AT: www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQnVxbX8A3w Plus, it doesn't need any chat server from the LyX side, as the many existing XMPP ones can easily be used (as in the shown example, where I'm using jabber.org). Comments are welcome of course, as always. T.

I don't really know that class. rh
