Actually, latex is perfectly fine with the class being in the same
directory as the .tex file. We routinely use this feature when
collaborating. Using a class never requires running sudo texhash.
And this is really crucial for me. My coworkers expect that we share a

Hi guys,
I managed to write an article in lyx in sig-alternate style. I had to
copy the class into my tex installation, run texhash, install some
layout into ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-2.0/layouts. And that's
fine. And then my coworker wanted to see what I'd done, so I sent him

Hi,
I'm using the import function of lyx to import latex to lyx. With some
latex file, this works fine, but one file can't be imported,
reporting: "stammt von einer älteren Lyx-Version, aber das
lyx2lyx-Skript konnte das Dokument nicht konvertieren."
I tried Lyx 1.6.8 and Lyx 2.0 beta 3.

Hi, I'm using LyX with the springer LNCS article class. In my previous
work, all the program listings I had to write could reasonably well be
called "algorithms," so I used the algorithm class in a float. This
time, they aren't really algorithms, they're just program listings.
So, I'd the surroundi
I just saw the question being asked here:

Also: shouldn't lyx have a twitter account that I can ask such questions?

Well, yea. So what? It doesn't need to work all the time. If the Lyx

that's good enough for me.

what helped popularize git in my research group was undoubtably to

Hi,
when I open the same file twice in lyx, it behaves very strangely. It
crashes when I close the window which was second to be opened.
I would recommend checking upon file opening if the file is open
already and if so, bring it to the foreground.

Hello!
How do you type things like e.g. in lyx? If you do not take special
care, it is translated to latex merely as "e.g." and therefore creates
a giant space after the abbreviation. How to avoid that?
Cheers,
Niko
Hi,
Where do I put modules again so they won't be overwritten each time I

how do i make my ams-book document double-sided? the page numbers should

control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,

I for one have had large troubles when asking people to cooperate with me,

Your command was ignored.
Type I to replace it with another command,

So, with the reverted version I can keep working. I can simply redo the last
work, it is only like 10 minutes.
If you want to debug what went wrong there, please don't hesitate asking me

I don't think so. Firstly, I am on OSX and secondly, I haven't changed
anything about the graphics files recently.
I think it's strange. I dropbox collect recent versions, and even after
going 3 hours back in time, it won't compile, then with another strange

Now what does this mean? The references and graphics inclusions worked just

Ok, this is interesting. I have 2 mac machines. Apparantly, their
setup is not entirely identical.
One of them prings the .fig images perfectly, the other one makes them
pixely and turned 90 °. Turns out that the fig2pdftex.py script fails.
Here's what I see on the command line:
bash-3.2$
While my Mac can easily include .fig files generated by xfig, my Windows
machine cannot. How can I teach windows lyx to convert .fig files properly?

Ok, I wrote this module file. It's called nikos thesis.module. I have it.
But Lyx won't find it, because I am on another computer now and I don't know

How do I load modules again?

I think this argument is a little categorical.
There are many frameworks that would do the version management. But choosing
one for the user and recommending it by making it the default is making life
for users easier.
And well, the binary I downloaded was platform dependent, it was a .exe
file.
have to change things outside my document
directory, like modifying several lyx and latex installations, things become
tricky.
All the best,
