Rotating captions

Hi! I'm have some of my figures 90° rotated to fit the page. But the captions dont't rotate. how can i achive this? It looks so ugly, if your figure is rotated, but the caption not. I have searched the lyx-archive on Herbert's page, but found nothing :-( Then I have some figures which include th

Hi! I use section* for some of my headings. The document shows no numbers, but in the fancyheader are leading numbers displayed. I use \sectionmark for shorter text in the fancyheader. How can I remove the numbers in the fancyheader? Regards Chris

Section-numbering

Hi! I my document I want to switch off temporarily the secion-numbering. Although, the sections should still apear in the toc. It is somewhat biological work and the many generas and species, I have to describe shouldn't show up with numbers. Like this: Phylum Class Subclass Supraorder Order Sub

GV doesn't like EPS?

Hi! Never had any problems displaying my document in GV. But since I put my figures to the doc GV starts making some trouble. The page-count stops behind the first EPS-Figure and I can't view the following pages. The doc prints out correctly. I've got the same "feature" using Konqueror to view th

How to center section--headers?

Hi! I've just tried to center some of my section--headers (and paragraph--headers). In report.sty this won't work. Is there a LaTeX-Code to do this? I'm also looking for a way to switch off the section-numbering for only some of my sections (sounds crazy, I know...) Regards, Chris

overfull \hbox

Hi! My document does contain so much overfull \hboxes and I don't know, how to fix that. The normal way is to insert that special character "-" as a hint for hyphenation (the german "Sollbruchstelle"), but LaTeX doesn't care in most of the cases. This behavior looks very ugly, especially in he bi

TeX capacity exceeded???

Hi! Using LyX 1.1.6 on SuSE7 (Intel) I get the following error on postscript-view: Tex capacity exceeded, sorry [input stack size=300] \onehalfspacing If you really need more capacity, you can ask a wizard to enlarge me. This is only the first of 4 error-boxes. The following com

1.1.6pre3 now?

Hi! As it seems, many people use 1.1.6pre3 yet. Because I'm writing my thesis, it will be dangerous to switch to 1.1.6pre3 now, isn't it? If I do a make install, the new LyX overwrites the old one, so I can't really test 1.1.6pre3 without losing my stable 1.1.5fix2. Is there a way to have both ve

Table-Import

Hi! I have quite a lot of MS-Excel (sorry!) tables to import into my LyX--Document. There is a litle macro excel2latex which saves the current selction to a .tex--file. But LyX 1.1.5f2 (SuSE7 on Intel) or maybe the laTeX has some problmes with that files. Because reLyX has some problems with tabl

Hi! Last week I had some trouble with one of my Computers running LyX. It appeared that the system was defective --- it was no LyX--Problem. After a complete fresh installation of Linux, LyX translates my thesis correctly to .dvi now. Sorry for that, because I wrote to the list without doing the

Hi! I'm using LyX on my Desktop as well on my laptop to write my thesis. For some days I can't run LaTex from LyX. It gives me two errors. The first is in any case before the title of my report-style doc.: LaTeX Error: Missing \begin{document}. \begin {document} You're in

Maybe a bug?

Hi! On Monday, I posted the problem on changing the skip-length in a list-environment. Because LyX displays only positive values, even if you typed -3ex e.g. for that in its paragraph-menu, i forgot to check the .dvi-File. Guenter Milde has repyed on that problem. So I tried again, and, YES, the
