This looks like a mismatch of polyglossia and biblatex. It might be a
problem in your setting/distribution (the file compiles fine for me with
XeTeX).

Does it work if you use pdflatex instead of XeTeX?

Wait, I think I know what's happening. Biblatex needs to detect whether
babel or polyglossia is used, but LyX loads polyglossia after the user
preamble, too late for biblatex detection.

Does it help if you write

\usepackage{polyglossia}

just before the \usepackage{biblatex} line?

This looks very promising (although this is one seriously complicated
clipboard manager). But I'm a bit lost as to how it works. Copy/paste
text is a bit slow but works fine (v 2.0.1 on Xubuntu 12.04). But for
images or pdf, I need to proceed as follows:
copyq write image/png - < newfile2.png

then I need to open CopyQ, select the item labeled 0, then hit the
Move to Clipboard button. Now ctrl+v in LyX will paste the image (but
this doesn't seem to work in LibO, though).

This can't be that complicated. Am I doing something wrong?

koma script book (scrbook) class section numbering in lyx 2.0.x and 2.1.0rc1

[Csikos Bela]

Hello:

This is only a report of a misbehavior so that lyx user (and possibly 
developers) would be aware of it.

Lyx (both 2.0.x and 2.1.0rc1) numbers koma book class sections consecutively 
disregarding \frontmatter and \mainmatter.

This results in a difference between section numbers in lyx interface and the 
pdf output.
For example if the document has 2 sections in the front matter and 5 in the 
main matter,
in lyx these are numbered from 1 to 7. In the pdf output the sections in the 
front matter are not numbered and the the sections in the main matter are 
numbered from 1 to 5.
This makes identifying text locations and editing/correcting the text difficult 
occasionally.

How do you insert \frontmatter and \mainmatter? AFAIK the LyX KOMA layouts
do not natively support these yet.

Yes, it is heavy and more complicated. If you want a lightweight and
quick clipboard manager, this is not for you. If you want one that you
can do whatever you want with and have a little time to spend to learn
it, it should be considered.

Strange. I do not notice the "bit slow". Perhaps I just got used to
it, but I don't remember that. Slow in what? After you type copy c you
see a pause? or after copy v? Or after one of the commands we're
talking about?

Try copyq write image/png - < newfile2.png && copyq select 0

> Now ctrl+v in LyX will paste the image (but

LibO must not handle image/png (perhaps this should be requested of LibO).
LibO does seem to handle image/bmp

So do
convert newfile2.png convert newfile2.bmp
copyq write image/bmp - < newfile2.bmp && copyq select 0

Now it will paste into LibO.

By the way, how did I find out that bmp will work? I copied an image
in Chromium by right-clicking and going to "copy image".
I then tried to paste it in LibO. It worked. I opened up CopyQ (by
clicking on show/hide in the tray icon). I right-clicked on the
picture item (which should display as an actual picture) and clicked
on "Show Content". Then in the left column under "Formats" you will
see all of the MIME types. These are all of the types that LibO can
choose from when it receives a paste. I guessed that it went for the
bmp.

If you have any other questions, consider the CopyQ google group:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/copyq
It looks lonely there but that's just because no one is asking
questions. When someone does, Lukas is very quick.

I made a mistake in adding an entry into the Table Of Contents.
Instead of writing

I wrote
\addcontentsline{toc}{Institutional repositories}

The {subsection} was missing, so it was my error and the software got

But here is the problem --

When the error message came, it started to point to all different

This is a LaTeX issue, I would suppose. LaTeX often gives very confusing

However, note that you get roman page numbering before the mainmatter only
if you actually use \frontmatter.

I think Frederick's point was that LyX's error dialog does not select the
ERT where this error is being made, but some other parts of the document.

However, I cannot reproduce this. I made a small test file, and the ERT was
precisely selected. So we'd need an example document that shows the problem.

Of course you can do that, but

\frontmatter

is shorter. After all, \frontmatter is but a shortcut to

\clearpage
\pagenumbering{roman}
\setcounter{page}{1}

Aha! So that's how it's done. Then 'v' works fine in LyX. But also in
Gimp and mtPaint. Cool.

Oh, nice to know. (And how strange of LibO!)

Not smoothly. :) I ended up with a black box in LibO.

Strange, works for me. I have version 4.1.3.
It actually appears that LibO prefers either the text/uri-list or text/html.
In any case, this is a LibO issue in my opinion. I'd be curious to see
what they say if you end up reporting this.

I now tried to set up a converter in LyX, but it didn't quite go to plan:
#
# FORMATS SECTION ##
#

\format "copyq1" "" "CopyQ (PDF)" "" "" "" "document,menu=export" ""

#
# CONVERTERS SECTION ##
#

\converter "pdf7" "copyq1" "copyq write application/pdf - < $$i &&
copyq select 0" ""

I'm not sure what's wrong. CopyQ (PDF) wouldn't appear in the menus,
and seemed to fail when activated manually. I'm not sure that our
converters are designed to deal with something like this.

For debugging converters I suggest creating a script and then putting
the commands in sequentially. This way in the script you can put
something like
echo "script ran with argument $1" > /home/liviu/Desktop/test.log
copyq write application/pdf - < $1 && echo "copyq write succeeded" >>
/home/liviu/Desktop/test.log
copyq select 0 && echo "copyq select succeeded" >> /home/liviu/Desktop/test.log

Why?


I changed English to German, but "user defined", 
"\usepackage{polyglossia}" was default. I did not change that.

Hi Bernd,

I'm not sure about what you're trying to do. The file you sent has
basically no content, let alone citations. There is only one word, "LyX".
There are no citations of any kind.

Second, the \addbibresource command in the preamble should include the
absolute path to the bib file, even if it is in the same directory as the
lyx file It works as it is in the your document because the bib file is in
a standard TeX location. This is not usually the case though).

Third, I am not sure if you want to use natbib. You did select the natbib
option in the settings, but you did not load the biblatex module, nor did
you indicate to biblatex that you want to use a natbib-like style. You need
to add the natbib=true option when you load biblatex.

I added a couple of citations to your document, modified the biblatex
loading command, and added the biblatex module. The file compiles as
expected, it seems to me (see enclosed).


Or were you trying to cite all the references in the biblatex-example.bib
file in one single swoop? In that case, you should add the command
\nocite{*} in ERT in your document (I put it in a LyX note, if you want to
try it)



Cheers,

Stefano

Re: Cannot find control file (.bcf)

[Jason F. Siegel]

When I was having these problems a few weeks ago, it came up that 
there's a conflict between biblatex and polyglossia: 
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/119682/how-to-use-polyglossia-with-biblatex


I solved this problem by using babel and having no language package set 
in Tools > Preferences > Language Settings > Language. Perhaps putting 
babel in the preamble itself would help.
