Re: User's Guide doesn't work

Thanks for the help Uwe, but I still am having problems. About your suggestion - personally I think MiKTeX was installing packages fine (it never complained and seemed to complete the process whenever I clicked install package in the package manager). BUT it never showed floatflt.sty in the MiKTeX

Absolute Positioning of Graphics

Hello all, How can I insert images into a powerdot presentations at an absolute position (x, y coordinate) and specify the width & height of those images? Is this possible? Keep in mind I'm very new to lyx and sorry for the newbie question. I'm sure this is simple to do. Thanks in advanc

Re: Custom function names

In the new manual Math.lyx, there is a solution (section 15 Functions ) : As an example, if you want to define the sgn function, you put this lines in the LaTeX preamble : \DeclareMathOperator{\sgn}{sgn} Then you can use \sgn in your formulas. Hope it helps. Siegfried.

Custom function names

LyX has a convenient drop-down list for math function names, but I'd like to add some. E.g. it is customary (in French) to call "ch" instead of "cosh" the hyperbolic cosine function. Could I add my custom names to the list? Or maybe I could use ERT as a workaround (but how, in math mode)? TIA -

RE: problem with pdfpages

Thanks I tried to remove the extension but it did not change the error messages. I'll keep trying. Is there an alternative to pdfpages that works with tetex istead of tex-live ? Eli -הודעה מקורית- מאת: Eran Kaplinsky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] נשלח: ש 2/2/2008 00:32 עותק לידיעה: Eli Brosh
