See as an example \begin_inset LatexCommand \ref[first-section]{first-section} \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Fonts \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The only fonts supported are \emph on Emphasis \emph default and \begin_inset CharStyle Literal collapsed true \begin_layout Standard SGML \end_layout \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Figures \end_layout \begin_layout Standard One of the major changes in the docbook when compared with the linuxdoc support are the figures support. LyX only allows to view eps figures. So you should have one of these if you want to take advantage of this feature. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Notice that when the docbook code is exported the filename extension is stripped. This enables that when the several backends are processed in sgmltools, the corresponding extensions are added. The default extension are eps for the print and gif for the html backend. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Float figure placement htbp wide false collapsed false \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Graphics filename ../doc/platypus.eps display grayscale width 2cm height 3cm rotateAngle 45 rotateOrigin center \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Caption Nice platypus \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Wide figures are treated as normal figures. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Float figure placement htbp wide true collapsed false \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Graphics filename ../doc/platypus.eps display grayscale width 2cm height 3cm rotateAngle 45 rotateOrigin center \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Caption long, very long... :-) \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Tables \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There is also basic support for tables. \begin_inset Float table placement htbp wide false collapsed false \begin_layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard Software 1 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard Software 2 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard Software 3 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard Software 4 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard Plataform 1 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard 25 MB \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard 10 MB \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard 34 MB \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard Plataform 2 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard 12 MB \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard 30 MB \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Standard 35 MB \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Caption Nice Formal Table \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard As it happens with the figures the wide tables are treated as normal tables. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Margins \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There are some restrictions when using margins. For further information on docbook allowed syntax consult the \begin_inset LatexCommand \url[docbook reference manual]{http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/} \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Quotation It is also possible to insert margin notes inside some environments. \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout SGML \begin_inset Marginal collapsed true \begin_layout Standard margin note \end_layout \begin_layout Standard second par -> margin note \end_layout \begin_layout Standard third par -> margin note \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Quotation Notice that the previous layout is at level 1 \begin_inset Foot collapsed true \begin_layout Standard This comes from a docbook restriction. Sidebar can only appear inside "MSGTEXT", "CAUTION", "IMPORTANT", "NOTE", "TIP", "WARNING", "BLOCKQUOTE". \end_layout \begin_layout Standard These environments are easily added to the docbook layout. \end_layout \end_inset and so is the follow: \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout SGML \begin_inset Marginal collapsed true \begin_layout Standard too marginal ;-) \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Section The road map \end_layout \begin_layout Standard This is a small list of the remaining tasks: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Expand the number of layouts \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize example \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize note \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize warning \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize tip \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize caution \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize important \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Itemize Compose other layout files, besides article \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate book \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate set (very unlikely) \begin_inset Foot collapsed true \begin_layout Standard I do not expect lyx to deal with colection of books, for now! \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate refentry \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Itemize goodies \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate including other lyx files \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate more advanced tables support \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Itemize better documentation \end_layout \begin_layout Standard That's all. ;-) \end_layout \end_document
