Anda hanya perlu memikirkan tentang isi dan konsep, bukan bagaimana pengaturan penulisannya. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Filosopi ini dijelaskan pada buku panduan \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \emph on Pengantar \emph default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . Apabila belum membacanya, sangat disarankan anda membacanya terlebih dahulu sebelum melanjutkan mempelajari buku panduan ini. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Dalam buku panduan \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \emph on Pengantar \emph default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset , selain menjelaskan tentang filosofi \SpecialChar LyX , juga menjelaskan tentang format penulisan yang digunakan di semua buku panduan. Oleh karena itu anda perlu meluangkan waktu untuk membacanya terlebih dahulu. Buku panduan lain yang disarankan dipelajari sebelum membaca buku panduan ini adalah buku panduan \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \emph on Tutorial \emph default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Section Bagaimana Tampilan \SpecialChar LyX \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Seperti umumnya aplikasi program lain, \SpecialChar LyX mempunyai kotak menu utama di bagian atas jendela kerja. Dibagian bawahnya ada kotak bantuan yang berisi satu kotak pilihan serta berbagai tombol bantuan. Selain itu, ada gulungan vertikal dan area kerja utama untuk menyunting dokumen. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Ada satu hal yang perlu anda ketahui, anda tidak akan menemukan gulungan horisontal. Hal ini bukanlah karena kutu program atau fitur yang terlupakan, tetapi merupakan kesengajaan. Teks yang ditulis dalam area kerja \SpecialChar LyX akan selalu diteruskan di baris bawahnya apabila melewati batas jendela kerja. Oleh karena itu, \SpecialChar LyX tidak memerlukan gulungan horisontal, cukup menggunakan gulungan vertikal. Mungkin ada tiga alasan mengapa anda masih memerlukan gulungan horisontal. Yang pertama adalah apabila anda mempunyai gambar yang berukuran besar. Untuk mengatasi hal ini, yang anda perlu lakukan adalah mengatur skala gambar di \SpecialChar LyX agar bisa ditampilan seluruhnya di area kerja \SpecialChar LyX . Alasan yang kedua dan ketiga adalah berkaitan dengan tabel dan persamaan yang melebihi area kerja. Untuk tabel, anda bisa menggunakan tombol panah untuk menggeser kursor dalam tabel pada arah horisontal. Namun demikian, hal ini belum dapat dilakukan untuk persamaan yang panjang dan melebihi area kerja. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Penjelasan ringkas tentang semua menu \SpecialChar LyX serta tombol bantuan yang ada, silahkan membaca di Lampiran \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "chap:The-User-Interface" \end_inset . Hampir semua menu dapat dipahami dengan sendirinya dari nama menu. Namun demikian anda dapat memperoleh penjelasan lanjut pada sub-bab dalam Lampiran \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "chap:The-User-Interface" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Section BANTUAN \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Bantuan yang disediakan adalah dalam bentuk buku panduan \SpecialChar LyX . Anda dapat membaca \emph on semua \emph default buku panduan dalam \SpecialChar LyX . Caranya sangat mudah, dari menu \family sans Bantuan \family default , kemudian pilihlah buku panduan yang ingin anda baca. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Pengaturan \SpecialChar LyX Dasar \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Basic-LyX-Setup" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Ada beberapa fitur \SpecialChar LyX dapat diatur dari dalam \SpecialChar LyX , tanpa melakukan perubahan atau menyunting secara langsung pada berkas konfigurasinya. \SpecialChar LyX mampu memeriksa sistem anda untuk melihat perangkat lunak, class dokumen \SpecialChar LaTeX , serta paket \SpecialChar LaTeX yang tersedia. Dengan kemampuan ini, \SpecialChar LyX menggunakannya untuk menentukan pengaturan bawaan yang ada dalam \family sans Preferensi \family default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Preferensi \end_layout \end_inset . Walaupun pengaturan konfigurasi bawaan sudah dilakukan ketika proses instalasi \SpecialChar LyX , anda masih mempunyai keleluasaan untuk menambah program tambahan secara lokal, misalnya \SpecialChar LaTeX class, yang sebelumnya belum dikenal oleh \SpecialChar LyX . Untuk memaksa \SpecialChar LyX untuk memeriksa ulang sistem anda, maka anda perlu menggunakan \family sans AlatBantuan\SpecialChar menuseparator Konfigurasi Ulang \family default . \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Konfigurasi Ulang \SpecialChar LyX \end_layout \end_inset . Setelah proses konfigurasi ulang, anda harus menjalankan ulang \SpecialChar LyX untuk memastika n semua perubahan diterapkan dalam \SpecialChar LyX . \end_layout \begin_layout Section Pengaturan \SpecialChar LaTeX \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:LaTeX-Setup" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Anda dapat menyunting dokumen dalam \SpecialChar LyX tanpa instalasi \SpecialChar LaTeX , namun demikian anda tidak akan bisa melihat atau mebuat PDF atau mencetak dokumen tanpa \SpecialChar LaTeX . Apabila dokumen anda menggunakan DocBook, maka anda akan dapat menghasilkan PDF atau yang setara, selain itu semua dokumen dalam DocBook akan mempunyai keluaran sebagai plain text atau XHTML. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Beberapa class dokumen menggunakan kombinasi class \SpecialChar LaTeX atau DocBook atau paket \SpecialChar LaTeX . Anda dapat menggunakan class dokumen tersebut walaupun anda tidak memiliki berkas yang seharusnya sudah dipasang. Tentu saja anda tidak dapat melihat hasil keluaran tanpa semua berkas terpasang di sistem anda. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Semua paket \SpecialChar LaTeX yang sudah dideteksi ada dalam sistem anda dapat dilihat melalui menu \family sans Bantuan\SpecialChar menuseparator Konfigurasi \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset LaT \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout {} \end_layout \end_inset eX \family default . Apabila ada paket-paket yang belum terpasang, anda perlu melakukan instalasi paket kemudian konfigurasi ulang (menu \family sans AlatBantuan\SpecialChar menuseparator Konfigurasi \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Ulang \family default ). \begin_inset Note Note status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout The two braces in the \SpecialChar TeX Code box prevent that the term \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \SpecialChar LaTeX \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset from being printed with sub- and superscript letters. More about \SpecialChar TeX Code is described in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:TeX-Code" \end_inset , the printout of proper names like \SpecialChar LaTeX is explained in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:LyX's-Proper-Names" \end_inset . \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Konfigurasi Ulang \SpecialChar LyX \end_layout \end_inset Informasi tentang bagaimana melakukan instalasi tambahan paket \SpecialChar LaTeX , silahkan lihat sub-bab 5.1 dari buku panduan \emph on Perubahan dan Pengaturan \emph default . \end_layout \begin_layout Chapter Bagaimana Menggunakan \SpecialChar LyX \end_layout \begin_layout Section Dasar Penggunaan Berkas \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Penggunaan Berkas \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Semua penggunaan berkas dapat dimulai dari menu \family sans Berkas \family default serta ada di kotak bantuan dalam bentuk ikon tombol bantuan. Beberapa menu yang berkaitan dengan berkas adalah: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Baru \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "buffer-new" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Baru \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset dari \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Templet \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Buka \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset berkas \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "file-open" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Tutup \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Simpan \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "buffer-write" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Simpan \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset ke \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Nama \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Lain \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Kembalikan \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Berkas \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Kontrol \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Versi \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Impor \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Ekspor \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Keluar \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Secara umum, hampir semua operasi berkas mirip dengan yang ada di pengolah kata. Hanya saja di \SpecialChar LyX ada sedikit perbedaan. Apabila membuka berkas baru dari The \family sans Berkas\SpecialChar menuseparator Baru \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset dari \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset Templet, \family default bukan hanya menuntun anda untuk memberi nama berkas tetapi juga memilih templet yang akan anda gunakan. Dengan memilih templet secara otomatis akan mengatur fitur utama tataletak dokumen, sedangkan fitur lainnya dapat anda atur sendiri. Templet mungkin menggunakan kelas dokumen tertentu (lihat subbab \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Document-Classes" \end_inset ). \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \family sans Kembalikan \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset berkas \family default serta \family sans Kontrol \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Versi \family default sangat berguna apabila anda bersama teman-teman anda menyunting berkas dokumen yang sama \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Apabila anda akan melakukan hal ini, anda perlu mempelajari fitur Kontrol Versi yang ditulis di buku panduan \emph on Fitur Tambahan \emph default \SpecialChar endofsentence \end_layout \end_inset . \family sans Kembalikan \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset berkas \family default akan memuat ulang dokumen dari cakra. Anda dapat menggunakan operasi \family sans Kembalikan \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset berkas \family default untuk mengabaikan perubahan yang sudah anda lakukan dan mengembalikan ke berkas terakhir yang anda simpan. Dengan operasi berkas \family sans Kontrol \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Versi, \family default anda dapat mendaftarkan catatan perubahan pada dokumen sehingga orang lain akan dapat mengenali perubahan yang telah anda lakukan. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Dasar Fitur Penyuntingan \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Penyuntingan \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Basic-Editing-Features" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Seperti pengolah kata modern lainnya, operasi penyuntingan dengan potong dan tempel dalam \SpecialChar LyX dapat dipraktekkan untuk teks, berupa karakter, kata, maupun keseluruhan halaman atau bahkan lebih dari satu halaman. Pada empat subbab berikut akan menjelaskan fitur penyuntingan yang ada dalam \SpecialChar LyX dan bagaimana memanfaatkannya. Kita akan memulai dari potong dan tempel. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Seperti yang anda perkirakan, menu \family sans Suntingan \family default dan kotak bantuan standar menyediakan perintah potong dan tempelkan serta fitur suntingan lainnya. Beberapa perintah suntingan perlu pembahasan khusus sehingga dikelompokkan dalam pembahasan subbab berikutnya. Perintah suntingan utama adalah: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Potong \family default \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "cut" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Salin \family default \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "copy" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Tempelkan \family default \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "paste" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Tempelkan \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset yg \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset terkini \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Tempelkan \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset Spesial \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Cari \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset & \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset Ganti \family default \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "dialog-show findreplace" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Tiga perintah suntingan yang pertama dapat dipahami dari nama perintahnya sendiri. Hanya ada beberapa catatan: apabila anda memilih dan menandai teks di dokumen anda, maka secara otomatis akan tersimpam di papan klip. Tombol \family sans Delete \family default dan \family sans Backspace \family default juga berfungsi sebagai perintah \family sans Potong \family default . Selain itu yang paling penting, jika anda memilih dan menandai teks, harap hati-hati: jika anda menekan salah satu tombol, maka \SpecialChar LyX akan menghapus teks yang anda pilih tadi dan mengganti dengan dengan huruf atau karakter yang anda tekan. Untuk mengembalikannya, anda perlu melakukan perintah \family sans Batalkan \family default agar teks dikembalikan seperti semula. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Tempelkan \end_layout \end_inset Anda dapat dapat menyalin teks di \SpecialChar LyX juga dari program lainnya menggunakan \family sans Potong \family default , \family sans Salin \family default dan \family sans Tempelkan \family default . Anak menu \family sans Tempelkan \family default \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset \family sans yg \family default \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset \family sans terkini \family default akan menampilkan daftar teks yang terakhir anda tempelkan. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Dari menu Suntingan \family sans \SpecialChar menuseparator Tempelkan \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset spesial, Teks \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset biasa, \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset Disambungkan \family default akan menyisipkan teks yang tersimpan di papan klip sedemikian sehingga teks yang disisipkan dalam \emph on satu \emph default paragraf. Paragraf baru akan dimulai apabila ada baris kosong. Tanpa pilihan \family sans Disambungkan \family default , teks disisipkan sebagai paragraf baru, dimana setiap ganti baris menjadi awal paragraf. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Ganti \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Cari \end_layout \end_inset Menu \family sans Suntingan\SpecialChar menuseparator Cari \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset & \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset Ganti \family default \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset \family sans (Cepat) \family default akan membuka jendela dialog \family sans Cari \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset & \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset Ganti \family default . Apabila anda sudah menemukan kata atau ekspresi yang anda cari, \SpecialChar LyX akan menandain ya. Dengan menekan tombol \family sans Ganti \family default , kata yang ditemukan tadi akan digantikan dengan teks yang ada di area \family sans Ganti \family default \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset \family sans dengan \family default . Anda bisa meneruskan pencarian dengan menekan tombol Berikutnya. Jika anda menekan tombol \family sans Ganti \family default \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset \family sans Semua \family default maka semua kata yang ada di dokumen akan diganti seketika secara otomatis. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Apabila anda ingin mempertimbangkan huruf besar/kecil, anda perlu menggunakan menu \family sans Suntingan\SpecialChar menuseparator Cari \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset & \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset Ganti \family default \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset \family sans (Lengkap) \family default . Pada dialog \family sans Cari \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset & \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset Ganti \family default \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset \family sans (Lengkap) \family default anda bisa mengatur pencarian yang anda inginkan. Apabila anda mengkatifkan pilihan \family sans Pertimbangkan \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset huruf \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset besar/kecil \family default , maka pencarian kata \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter Test \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset akan berbeda dengan \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter test \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . Pilihan \family sans Seluruh \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset kata \family default akan memaksa \SpecialChar LyX hanya mencari kata tersebut, misalnya pencarian \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter star \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset tidak akan menemukan \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter starlet \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . \lang english \SpecialChar LyX offers also an advanced \family sans Find \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset & \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Replace \family default feature that is described in sec. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Advanced-Find-and" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Beberapa sisipan tambahan berformat, seperti nota, ambangan, dll., dapat diuraikan. Maknanya apabila tanda sisipan dihilangkan, maka isinya akan berubah menjadi teks normal. Cara menguraikan sisipan tambahan adalah dengan meletakkan kursor di lokasi paling depan dalam kotak sisipan kemudian menekan tombol ketik \family sans Backspace \family default atau meletakkan kursor di bagian akhir dalam kotak sisipan kemudian menekan tombol ketik \family sans Delete \family default . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \lang english The content of an inset is selected using the shortcut \begin_inset Info type "shortcuts" arg "inset-select-all" \end_inset , the shortcut \begin_inset Info type "shortcuts" arg "command-sequence buffer-begin ; buffer-end-select" \end_inset selects the whole document. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Batalkan dan Kembalikan \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Kembalikan \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Batalkan \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Undo-and-Redo" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Jika anda membuat kesalahan anda dapat dengan mudah membatalkannya. Anda perlu ke menu Suntingan \family sans \SpecialChar menuseparator Batalkan \family default atau dari tombol bantuan \family sans \family default \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "undo" \end_inset untuk membatalkan apa yang baru saja anda lakukan. \SpecialChar LyX mempunyai kemampunyan menyimpan dalam kapasitas yang besar untuk membatalkan/m engembalikan. Saat ini mekanisme simpanan maksimum adalah sampai 100 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset kali. Apabila secara tidak sengaja anda melakukan proses pembatalan yang terlebih, anda bisa mengembalikannya dari menu \family sans Suntingan\SpecialChar menuseparator Kembalikan \family default atau dengan menekan tombol \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "redo" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Apabila anda mengembalikan perubahan sampai ke kondisi dokumen saat terakhir disimpan, status dokumen \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset ada perubahan \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset tidak akan menjadi normal kembali seperti tidak ada perubahan. Hal ini karena anda sebenarnya melakukan perubahan pada dokumen. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Proses \family sans Batalkan \family default dan \family sans Kembalikan \family default dapat dilakukan untuk apa saja di \SpecialChar LyX . Namun demikian proses \family sans Batalkan \family default dan \family sans Kembalikan \family default pada teks tidak dilakukan untuk setiap karakter, tetapi berlaku untuk kumpulan teks. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Penggunaan Tetikus \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Penggunaan Tetikus \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Berikut ini adalah dasar pengunaan tetikus. \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Memindah Kursor \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize Tekan atau klik \emph on tombol tetikus kiri \emph default sekali di daerah jendela kerja \SpecialChar LyX .

Note that bookmarks are saved between sessions. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \lang english The toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "bookmark-goto 0" \end_inset (also \family sans Navigate\SpecialChar menuseparator Bookmarks\SpecialChar menuseparator NavigateBack \family default ) jumps to the position in the document where you recently changed something. This is useful when you have a large document and have navigated or scrolled to another document part to look for something, and want to go back to your last editing position. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection \lang english The Outliner \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \lang english The Outline was known in earlier versions of \SpecialChar LyX as the \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset TOC \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset , since its original purpose was to display the document's table of contents. The Outline has become much more powerful now, however. In the pull-down box at the top of the outline window, you can choose between several different lists, including other TOC-like objects, such as lists of tables and figures, but also lists of footnotes, or labels and cross-referen ces (see \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand formatted reference "sec:Cross-References" \end_inset ), or notes, or citations (see \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand formatted reference "sec:Bibliography" \end_inset ). Clicking on any of these will take you to the corresponding object in your document. The Outline has become much more powerful now, however. In the pull-down box at the top of the outline window, you can choose between several different lists, including other TOC-like objects, such as lists of tables and figures, but also lists of footnotes, or labels and cross-referen ces (see \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand formatted reference "sec:Cross-References" \end_inset ), or notes, or of citations (see \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand formatted reference "sec:Bibliography" \end_inset ). Clicking on any of these will take you to the corresponding object in your document. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \lang english Right-clicking on elements in the Outline will in many cases open a context menu that will allow for direct modification of those elements. For example, with citations, the context menu allows you to open the citation dialog and to modify the citation. Right-clicking a change will allow you to accept or reject it. And so on. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \lang english The `Filter' field at the top allows you to restrict which entries appear in the Outline. For example, if you are displaying the list of Labels and References and wish to see only references to subsections, you can enter the text \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset sub: \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset in the filter, and only entries containing that text will be displayed. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \lang english At the bottom of the outline are several buttons and the like that allow you further to control the display. The \family sans Sort \family default option sorts the current list alphabetically. Otherwise, the elements appear in the order in which they occur in the document.The \family sans Keep \family default option keeps it in the current view state. Keeping means that when you have e. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space \space{} \end_inset the subsections of section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 2 and 4 shown and click on section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 3, the subsections of section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 2 and 4 will still be shown. Without the \family sans Keep \family default option they will be hidden to highlight the clicked section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 3. Finally, the slider at the left can be used to open the Outline to a given \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset depth \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . It is best just to experiment with it to see how it works. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \lang english The \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "reload" \end_inset button refreshes the TOC (though this should not usually be necessary). Next to it are buttons that allow you to change the position of sections in your document. The \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "outline-down" \end_inset and \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "outline-up" \end_inset buttons move sections up and down in the document. So, for example, you can move section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 2.5 before section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 2.4 or after section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 2.6. \SpecialChar LyX will then automatically renumber the sections to the new order.

They are: \end_layout \begin_layout Description Article for basic articles \end_layout \begin_layout Description Report for basic reports \end_layout \begin_layout Description Book for writing a book \end_layout \begin_layout Description Letter for US-style letters \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There are also some non-standard classes, which \SpecialChar LyX only uses if you have installed the corresponding \SpecialChar LaTeX class files, though most \SpecialChar LaTeX distributions will include many of these. Here are some of the classes. The full list with detailed explanations can be found in chapter \emph on Special Document Classes \emph default in the \emph on Additional Features \emph default manual: \end_layout \begin_layout Description A&A Journal articles in the style and format used in Astronomy & Astrophysics \end_layout \begin_layout Description ACS For submissions to the journals published by the American Chemistry Society \end_layout \begin_layout Description AGU For submissions to the journals published by the American Geophysical Union \end_layout \begin_layout Description AMS Layouts for articles and books in the style and format used by the American Mathematical Society (AMS). There are three article layouts available. The standard one uses a typical numbering scheme for theorems etc., that prepends the section number to the number of the result. All result-type statements (propositions, corollaries, and so on) are sequenced together, but definitions, examples, and the like have their own sequence. The \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset sequential numbering \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset scheme does not place the section number with each result, but numbers them throughout the article in a single sequence. Each type of result gets its own sequence. There is also a layout that dispenses with numbering of statements altogether. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Beamer Layout for presentations \end_layout \begin_layout Description Broadway Layout for writing plays. It is not an existing \SpecialChar LaTeX document class, but a new one which is distributed with \SpecialChar LyX . \end_layout \begin_layout Description Chess Layout to write about chess games \end_layout \begin_layout Description Curriculum \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset vitae classes to create curriculum vitae \end_layout \begin_layout Description Elsarticle Layout for journals of the Elsevier publishing group \end_layout \begin_layout Description Foils Used to make transparencies \end_layout \begin_layout Description Hollywood Used to type spec scripts for the US film industry. It is not an existing \SpecialChar LaTeX document class, but a new one which is distributed with \SpecialChar LyX . \end_layout \begin_layout Description IEEEtran Layout for the journals published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) \end_layout \begin_layout Description IOP Layout for journals of the Institute of Physics publishing group \end_layout \begin_layout Description Kluwer Layout for journals of the Kluwer publishing group \end_layout \begin_layout Description KOMA-Script a replacement for the standard classes, offers many useful features like caption formatting, automatic print space calculation etc. (Is used by this document.) \end_layout \begin_layout Description Memoir another replacement for the standard classes \end_layout \begin_layout Description Powerdot Layout for presentations \end_layout \begin_layout Description REVTe \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout {} \end_layout \end_inset X is used to write articles for the publications of the American Physical Society (APS), American Institute of Physics (AIP), and Optical Society of America (OSA).

You can find all the details about the non-standard classes in Chapter 6 of the \emph on Additional Features \emph default manual. Here, we will settle with a list of some of the common properties of all of the document classes. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Availability \end_layout \begin_layout Standard New users are sometimes puzzled by the fact that many of the document classes listed under \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator Document Class \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Document ! Settings \end_layout \end_inset \family default are marked as \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Unavailable \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . Or they are surprised that, when they open e. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset the \family sans iop-article \family default template, they receive a warning saying that the document requires files that are not installed to produce output. So it seems that something is wrong. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard But nothing is wrong. \SpecialChar LyX includes many more document classes than you will ever need to use, and some of them, like \family sans IOP \family default , are highly specialized.\SpecialChar LyX tries to support as many different types of documents as possible, and it includes almost one hundred different layout files, with a growing number. No \SpecialChar LaTeX distribution will install by default all files that might be needed by some document class. There are just too many of them. That is why some of the document classes are unavailable. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If there is a document class you would like to use that is marked as `Unavailabl e', you need to install the appropriate package files. The easiest way to find out which files you need to install is to use that document class for a new file. \SpecialChar LyX will display a dialog that will list the missing files. See section \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Installing new \SpecialChar LaTeX files \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset of the \emph on Customization \emph default manual for information on how to install them. \begin_inset VSpace medskip \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Although \SpecialChar LyX provides support for many different sorts of documents, it does not include support for every document class people might want to use. For example, many universities provide \SpecialChar LaTeX class files to be used for dissertation s submitted to those universities. The \SpecialChar LyX team cannot write layout files to support every one of these. There are too many. Fortunately, users can write their own layout files, and many users have done so. Chapter \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 5 of the \emph on Customization \emph default manual contains information on how to create layout files. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Modules \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Modules" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Document ! Modules \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Modules load additional features that are not by default available in the chosen document class. For example you might want to write Braille (embossed printing) in a document. This is not available in any document class, so you have to load the correspond ing module in the \family sans Modules \family default section of the \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings \family default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Document ! Settings \end_layout \end_inset dialog. Highlighting a module in the dialog will bring up a description of the module. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Some modules require \SpecialChar LaTeX packages that are not always installed by default. \SpecialChar LyX will warn you if you do not have the needed package. You can still use the module while editing your file, but you will not be able to export to PDF or print your document, since \SpecialChar LyX will not be able to compile the \SpecialChar LaTeX file without the missing package. If you want to be able to produce output, then you need to install the missing package and then reconfigure \SpecialChar LyX by selecting \family sans Tools\SpecialChar menuseparator Reconfigure \family default . \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Reconfiguration of \SpecialChar LyX \end_layout \end_inset See section \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Installing new \SpecialChar LaTeX files \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset of the \emph on Customization \emph default manual for more information on installing needed packages. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default Some modules require other modules, and some pairs of modules are incompatible. \SpecialChar LyX will advise you about these things. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Local Layout \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Local-Layout" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Document ! Local Layout \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Modules are to \SpecialChar LyX much as packages are to \SpecialChar LaTeX : They are intended to be used in a variety of different documents, and if you often find yourself needing the same sort of thing in different documents, you should consider writing a module for this purpose. Sometimes, however, a particular document has very special needs, and you find yourself wanting a specific inset or character style, but only that one time. You want something that is like a document's own \SpecialChar LaTeX preamble. What you want is \SpecialChar LyX 's \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Local Layout \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset .

There are several paragraph environments used to create section headings. Different document classes allow different types of section headings. Only two use the \family sans Chapter \family default heading; the rest do not and begin instead with the \family sans Section \family default heading. Some document classes, such as the ones for letters, don't use any section headings. In addition to \family sans Chapter \family default and \family sans Section \family default headings, there are also \family sans Subsection \family default headings, \family sans Subsubsection \family default headings, and so on. We'll describe these headings fully in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Headings" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Document Layout \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Document-Layout" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Document !

That includes the paragraph environments. Some paragraph environments are standard, in so far as all of the document classes have them; but some classes have special paragraph environments. If this is the case, and you change the document class, \SpecialChar LyX will mark the paragraphs whose styles it no longer understands as \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset unknown \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . The name of the style is retained, in case you should want to go back to the old class. But these paragraphs will be output with no special formatting, so you will either need to create a new style yourself or else to convert these paragraphs manually to a style present in your new document class. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Paragraph Indentation and Separation \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Paragraph ! Indentation \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Introduction \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Par-indent-intro" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Before describing all of the various paragraph environments, we'd like to say a word or two about paragraph indentation. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Everyone seems to have their own convention for separating paragraphs. Most Americans indent the first line of a paragraph. Others don't indent but put extra space between the paragraphs. If you choose indentation for paragraphs the \emph on first \emph default paragraph of a section, or after a figure, an equation, a table, a list, etc., is \emph on not \emph default indented. Only a paragraph following another paragraph gets indented. Note that the indentation behavior is different when you use another document language than English. \SpecialChar LaTeX takes care that the indentation follows the rules of the used language. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The space between paragraphs, like the line spacing, the space between headings and text — in fact, all of the spacings for just about everything are pre-coded into \SpecialChar LyX . As we said, you don't worry about how much space to add between what. \SpecialChar LyX takes care of that. In fact, these pre-coded vertical spacings aren't a single number but a range. That way, \SpecialChar LyX can squish or stretch the space between lines to make sure figures fit on a page with text, so that sections don't start at the bottom of a page, and so on. \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \SpecialChar LaTeX does this when \SpecialChar LyX goes to produce a printable file. \end_layout \end_inset However, pre-coded doesn't mean you can't change them. \SpecialChar LyX gives you the ability to globally change \emph on all \emph default of these pre-coded spacings. We'll explain more later. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Paragraph Separation \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Paragraph-Separation" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Paragraph !

If paragraphs have no indentation but use extra space for separation, this button will be ignored (you can't indent a single paragraph by toggling this). \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You should only need to change the indentation method for a single paragraph if you need to do some fine-tuning. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Line Spacing \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Paragraph !

Environments \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Paragraph environments|( \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Overview \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Paragraph environments correspond to the \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash begin{ \emph on environment \emph default } ... \backslash end{ \emph on environment \emph default } \series default \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset command sequence in \SpecialChar LaTeX files. If you don't know \SpecialChar LaTeX , or the concept of a paragraph environment is totally alien to you, we urge you to read the \emph on Tutorial \emph default . The \emph on Tutorial \emph default also contains many more examples than this section does. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard A paragraph environment is simply a \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset container \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset for a paragraph which gives that paragraph certain properties. This can include a particular style of font, different margins, a numbering scheme, labels, and so on. Additionally, you can \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset nest \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset the different environments inside one another, allowing one environment to inherit some of the properties of another. The different paragraph environments totally replace the need for messy tab stops, on the fly margin adjustment, and other hold-overs from the days of typewriters. There are several paragraph environments which are specific to a particular document type. We'll only be covering the most common ones here. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To choose a new paragraph environment, use the pull-down box \begin_inset Graphics filename ../clipart/ToolbarEnvBox.png scale 70 clip \end_inset at the left end of the toolbar. \SpecialChar LyX will change the environment of the \emph on entire \emph default paragraph in which the cursor sits. You can also change the environment of an entire group of paragraphs if you select them before choosing the new environment. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Note that hitting \family sans Return \family default will \emph on typically \emph default create a new paragraph using the \family sans Standard \family default paragraph environment. We say \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset typically \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset because if you are in one of these environments: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Quote \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Quotation \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Verse \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Itemize \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Enumerate \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Description \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans List \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \SpecialChar LyX keeps the old paragraph environment when you hit \family sans Return \family default , rather than resetting it to \family sans Standard \family default . \SpecialChar LyX will still reset the nesting depth, however. Usually, starting a new paragraph resets both the paragraph environment and the nesting depth (for more on nesting see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Nesting" \end_inset ). At the moment, all this is context-specific; you're better off expecting \family sans Return \family default to reset the paragraph environment and depth. If you want a new paragraph to keep the current environment and depth, use \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset instead. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Standard \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The default paragraph environment is \family sans Standard \family default for most classes. It creates a plain paragraph. If \SpecialChar LyX resets the paragraph environment, this is the one it chooses. In fact, the paragraph you're reading right now (and most of the ones in this manual) are in the \family sans Standard \family default environment. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can nest a paragraph using the \family sans Standard \family default environment in just about anything else, but you can't really nest anything in a \family sans Standard \family default environment. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Document Title \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Document ! Title \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard A \SpecialChar LaTeX title page has three parts: the title itself, the name(s) of the author(s) and a \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset footnote \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset for thanks or contact information. For certain types of documents, \SpecialChar LaTeX places all of this on a separate page along with today's date. For other types of documents, the title \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset page \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset goes at the top of the first page of the document. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \SpecialChar LyX provides an interface to the title page commands through the paragraph environments \family sans Title \family default , \family sans Author \family default , and \family sans Date \family default . Here's how you use them: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Put the title of your document in the \family sans Title \family default environment. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Put the author name in the \family sans Author \family default environment. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize If you want the date to have a certain appearance, want to use a fixed date, or want other text to appear in place of today's date, put that text in the \family sans Date \family default environment. Note that using this environment is optional. If you don't provide any, \SpecialChar LaTeX will automatically insert today's date. If you don't want any date, add the line \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \series bold \backslash date{} \series default \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset to the preamble of your document (menu \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings \family default ) \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can use footnotes to insert \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset thanks \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset or contact information. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Headings \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Section headings \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Headings" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There are several paragraph environments for producing section headings. \SpecialChar LyX takes care of the numbering for you. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Numbered Headings \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Section headings ! Numbered \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There are 7 numbered types of section headings. They are: \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate \family sans Part \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate \family sans Chapter \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate \family sans Section \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate \family sans Subsection \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate \family sans Subsubsection \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate \family sans Paragraph \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate \family sans Subparagraph \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \SpecialChar LyX labels each heading with a series of numbers, separated by periods. The numbers describe where in the document you are. Unlike the other headings, parts are numbered with Latin letters. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Headings all subdivide your document into different pieces of text. For example, suppose you're writing a book. You group the book into chapters. \SpecialChar LyX does similar grouping: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Part \family default is divided in either \family sans Chapter \family default s or \family sans Section \family default s \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Chapter \family default s are divided into \family sans Section \family default s \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Section \family default s are divided into \family sans Subsection \family default s \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Subsection \family default s are divided into \family sans Subsubsection \family default s \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Subsubsection \family default s are divided into \family sans Paragraph \family default s \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Paragraph \family default s are divided into \family sans Subparagraph \family default s \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default Not all document types use the \family sans Chapter \family default heading as the maximum sectioning level. In that case the \family sans Section \family default is the top-level heading. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard So, if you use the \family sans Subsubsection \family default environment to label a new sub-subsection, \SpecialChar LyX labels it with its number, along with the number of the subsection, section, and, if applicable, chapter that it's in. For example: the fifth section of the second chapter of this book has the label \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset 2.5 \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Unnumbered Headings \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Section headings ! Unnumbered \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The unnumbered section headings have a \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset * \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset at the end of their name. They work the same as their numbered counterparts but will not appear in the table of contents, see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:toc" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Changing the Numbering \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Numbering-depth" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can also alter which sectioning levels get numbered and which ones appear in the Table of Contents. Now, this doesn't remove any of the levels; that's preset in the document class. Certain classes start with \family sans Chapter \family default and go down to the \family sans Subparagraph \family default level. Others start at \family sans Section \family default . Similarly, not all document classes number all sectioning levels. Most don't number \family sans Paragraph \family default or \family sans Subparagraph \family default . This is something you can change. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Open the \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings \family default dialog. \family sans \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Document ! Settings \end_layout \end_inset \family default Under \family sans Numbering \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset & \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset TOC \family default you'll see two counters. The one named \family sans Numbering \family default controls how far down in the sectioning hierarchy \SpecialChar LyX numbers a section heading. The other one controls the appearance of the section headings in the table of contents. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Short Titles of Headings \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Section headings ! Short titles \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Argument 1 status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Short Titles \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Short-Titles" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Some section or chapter titles, such as this one, can get quite long. This can cause trouble when there is limited horizontal space. For example, if the header of the page is set to show the current section title, a long title will protrude over the page margins and look awful. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \SpecialChar LaTeX allows you to specify a short title for section headings. This short title is used in the header and in the actual table of contents, avoiding the problem mentioned. To specify a short title, use the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Short \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Title \family default . This will insert a box labeled \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset opt \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (stands for \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset optional \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ) which you can use to enter the short title text. This also works for captions inside floats. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The title of this section is a good example of using this feature. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Special Information \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The following information applies to all section headings: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize You cannot do any nesting with these environments. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize You cannot use a margin note in any of these environments. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize You can only use inline math in these environments. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize You can use labels and cross-references to refer to their numbers. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Quotes and Poetry line spacing \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \SpecialChar LyX has three paragraph environments for writing poetry and quotations. They are \family sans Quote \family default , \family sans Quotation \family default , and \family sans Verse \family default . Forget the days of changing line spacing and twiddling with margins. These three paragraph environments already have those changes built-in. They all widen the left margin and add a bit of extra space above and below the text they contain. They also allow nesting, so you can put a \family sans Verse \family default in a \family sans Quotation \family default , as well as in some other paragraph environments. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There is another feature of these three paragraph environments: they do \emph on not \emph default reset to \family sans Standard \family default when you start a new paragraph. So, you can type in that poem and merrily hit \family sans Return \family default without worrying about the paragraph environment changing on you. Of course, that means that, once you're done typing in that poem, you have to change back to the \family sans Standard \family default environment yourself. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection \family sans Quote \family default and \family sans Quotation \family default \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Quote" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Quotation \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Now that we've described the similarities of these three environments, it's time for the differences. \family sans Quote \family default and \family sans Quotation \family default are identical except for one difference: \family sans Quote \family default uses extra spacing to separate paragraphs and never indents the first line. \family sans Quotation \family default \emph on always \emph default indents the first line of a paragraph and uses the same line spacing throughout. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Here's an example of the \family sans Quote \family default environment: \end_layout \begin_layout Quote This is in the \family sans Quote \family default environment. I can keep writing, extending this line out further and further until it wraps. See – no indentation! \end_layout \begin_layout Quote Here's the second paragraph of this quote. Again, there's no indentation, but there is extra space between me and the other paragraph. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Here's another example, this time in the \family sans Quotation \family default environment: \end_layout \begin_layout Quotation This is in the \family sans Quotation \family default environment. If I keep writing, you'll see the indentation. If your country uses a writing style that shows off new paragraphs by indenting the first line, then \family sans Quotation \family default is the environment for you! Well, you'd use it \emph on if \emph default you were quoting other text. \end_layout \begin_layout Quotation Here's a new paragraph. I could ramble on and on, like a politician at election time. If I did that, though, you'd get bored. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard As the examples show, \family sans Quote \family default is for those people who use extra space to separate paragraphs. They should put quotes in the \family sans Quote \family default environment. Those who use indentation to mark a new paragraph should use the \family sans Quotation \family default paragraph environment for quoted text. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection \family sans Verse \family default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Paragraph ! Verse \end_layout \end_inset \family sans \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Poetry \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Verse" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \family sans Verse \family default is a paragraph environment for poetry, rhymes, verses, and so on. Here's an example: \end_layout \begin_layout Verse This is in Verse \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Which I did not rehearse! \end_layout \begin_layout Verse It could be much worse. This line could be long, very long, oh so long, so very long that it wraps around. It looks okay on screen, but in the printed version, the extra lines are indented a bit more than the first. Okay, so it's turned to prose and doesn't rhyme anymore. So sue me. \end_layout \begin_layout Verse To break a line \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset And make things look fine \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Use \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "newline-insert newline" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard As you can see, \family sans Verse \family default does not indent both margins. Each stanza of the verse or poem is in its own paragraph. To separate the individual lines of a stanza, use the \family typewriter break-line \family default function \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "newline-insert newline" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Lists \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Lists \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Lists" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \SpecialChar LyX has four different paragraph environments for creating different kinds of lists. In the \family sans Itemize \family default and \family sans Enumerate \family default environments, \SpecialChar LyX labels your list items with bullets or numbers, respectively. In the \family sans Description \family default and \family sans List \family default environments, \SpecialChar LyX lets you provide your own label. We'll present the individual details of each type of list next after describing some general features of all four of them. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection General Features \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The four paragraph environments for lists differ from the other environments in several ways. First, \SpecialChar LyX treats each paragraph as a list item. Hitting \family sans Return \family default does \emph on not \emph default reset the environment to \family sans Standard \family default but keeps the current environment and creates a new list item. The nesting depth is hereby kept. If you want to keep the paragraph environment but reset the current nesting depth, you can use \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset to break paragraphs. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can nest lists of any type inside one another. In fact, \SpecialChar LyX changes the labels on some list items depending on how it is nested. If you intend to use any of the list paragraph environments, we suggest you read all of section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Nesting" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection \family sans Itemize \family default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Lists ! Itemize \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Itemize" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The first type of list we'll describe in detail is the \family sans Itemize \family default paragraph environment. It has the following properties: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Each item has a particular bullet or symbol as its label. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize \SpecialChar LyX uses the same symbol for all of the items in a given nesting level. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize The symbol appears at the beginning of the first line. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Itemize The items can have any length. \SpecialChar LyX automatically offsets the left margin of each item. The offset is always relative to whatever environment the \family sans Itemize \family default list may be in. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize If you nest an \family sans Itemize \family default environment inside another \family sans Itemize \family default environment, the label changes to a new symbol. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize There are four different symbols for up to a four-fold nesting. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \SpecialChar LyX always shows the same symbol on screen. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize See section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Nesting" \end_inset for a full explanation of nesting. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Standard Of course, that explanation was also an example of an \family sans Itemize \family default list. The \family sans Itemize \family default environment is best suited for lists where the order doesn't matter. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard We said that different levels use different symbols as their label. Here's an example of all four possible symbols. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize The label for the first level \family sans Itemize \family default is a large black dot, or bullet. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize The label for the second level is a dash. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize The label for the third is an asterisk. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize The label for the fourth is a centered dot. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Itemize Back out to the third level. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Itemize Back to the second level. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Itemize Back to the outermost level. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard These are the default labels for an \family sans Itemize \family default list. You can customize these labels in the \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings \family default dialog in the submenu \family sans Bullets \family default . \family sans \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Document ! Settings \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Notice how the space between items decreases with increasing depth. We'll explain nesting and all the tricks you can do with different depths in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Nesting" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection \family sans Enumerate \family default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Lists ! Enumerate \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Enumerate" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \family sans Enumerate \family default environment is used to create numbered lists and outlines. It has these properties: \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Each item has a numeral as its label. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate The label type depends on the nesting depth. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate \SpecialChar LyX automatically counts the items for you and updates the label as appropriate. \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Each new \family sans Enumerate \family default environment resets the counter to one. \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Like the \family sans Itemize \family default environment, the \family sans Enumerate \family default environment: \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate Offsets the items relative to the left margin. Items can have any length. \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Reduces the space between items as the nesting depth increases. \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Uses different types of labels depending on the nesting depth. \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Allows up to a four-fold nesting. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Standard Unlike the \family sans Itemize \family default environment, \family sans Enumerate \family default shows the different labels for each item in \SpecialChar LyX . Here is how \SpecialChar LyX labels the four different levels in an \family sans Enumerate \family default : \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate The first level of an \family sans Enumerate \family default uses Arabic numerals followed by a period. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate The second level uses lower case letters surrounded by parentheses. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate The third level uses lower-case Roman numerals followed by a period. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate The fourth level uses capital letters followed by a period. \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Again, notice the decrease in the spacing between items as the nesting depth increases. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate Back to the third level \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate Back to the second level. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate Back to the outermost level. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Once again, you can customize the type of numbering used in the \family sans Enumerate \family default environment. It involves adding commands to the \SpecialChar LaTeX preamble (see the \emph on Additional Features \emph default manual). As stated earlier, such customization only shows up in the printed version, not in \SpecialChar LyX . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There is more to nesting \family sans Enumerate \family default environments than we've stated here. You should read section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Nesting" \end_inset to learn more about nesting. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection \family sans Description \family default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Lists ! Description \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Unlike the previous two environments, the \family sans Description \family default list has no fixed label. Instead, \SpecialChar LyX uses the first \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset word \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset of the first line as the label. Here's an example: \end_layout \begin_layout Description Example: This is an example of the \family sans Description \family default environment. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \SpecialChar LyX typesets the label in boldface and puts extra space between it and the rest of the line. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard With the first \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset word \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset it is meant that the first hit of the \family sans Space \family default key ends the label if you are at the beginning of the first line of an item. If you need to use more than one word in the label use a \family sans Protected Blank \family default . (Use either \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "space-insert protected" \end_inset or the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Formatting\SpecialChar menuseparator Protected \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Space \family default , see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Protected-Space" \end_inset for more info.) Here is an example: \end_layout \begin_layout Description Second \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Example: This one shows how to use a \family sans Protected \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Blank \family default in the label of a \family sans Description \family default list item. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Usage: You should use the \family sans Description \family default environment for things like definitions and theorems. Use it when you need to make one word in particular stand out in the text that describes it. It's not a good idea to use a \family sans Description \family default environment when you have an entire sentence that you want to describe. You're better off using \family sans Itemize \family default or \family sans Enumerate \family default and nesting several \family sans Standard \family default paragraphs into them. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Nesting: You can nest \family sans Description \family default environments inside one another, nest them in other types of lists, and so on. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Notice that after the first line, \SpecialChar LyX indents subsequent lines, offsetting them from the first line. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection The \SpecialChar LyX \family sans List \family default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Lists ! \SpecialChar LyX list \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \family sans List \family default environment is a \SpecialChar LyX extension to \SpecialChar LaTeX . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default When you are using a KOMA-Script document class, like in this document, the \family sans List \family default environment is named \family sans Labeling \family default . \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Like the \family sans Description \family default environment the \family sans List \family default environment has user-defined labels for each list item. There are the following properties of this list environment: \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring 00.00.0000 item \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset labels \SpecialChar LyX uses the first \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset word \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset of each line as the item label. The first \family sans Space \family default after the beginning of the first line of an item marks the end of the label. If you need to use more than one word in an item label, use a protected blank as described above. \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring 00.00.0000 margins As you can see, \SpecialChar LyX uses different margins for the item label and the body of the item text. The body of the text has a larger left margin, which is equal to the default label width plus a little extra space. \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring 00.00.0000 label \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset width \SpecialChar LyX uses the width of the label, or the default width, whatever is larger. If the label width is larger, the label \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset extends \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset into the first line. In other words, the text of the first line isn't aligned with the left margin of the rest of the item text. \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring 00.00.0000 default \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset width You can set the default label width to ensure that the text of all items in a \family sans List \family default environment have the same left margin. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset To change the default width, select all items in the list. Now open the \family sans Edit\SpecialChar menuseparator Paragraph \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Settings \family default dialog. The text in the box \family sans Longest \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset label \family default determines the default label width. You can use the text of your largest label here, but you can also use the letter \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset M \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset multiple times instead. The M is the widest character and is a standard unit of widths in \SpecialChar LaTeX . By using \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset M \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset as the unit of width you don't need to keep changing the contents of \family sans Longest \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset label \family default every time you alter a label in a \family sans List \family default environment. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset The predefined default width is the length of \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset 00.00.0000 \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (equal to 6 M). \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \begin_inset Note Greyedout status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default Setting the cursor into a list item to change only its label width will only change the width inside \SpecialChar LyX but not in the output. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You should use the \family sans List \family default environment the same way like the \family sans Description \family default list: When you need one word to stand out from the text that describes it. The \family sans List \family default environment gives you another way to do this, using a different overall layout. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can nest \family sans List \family default environments inside one another, nest them in other types of lists, and so on. They work just like the other list paragraph environments. Read section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Nesting" \end_inset to learn about nesting. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There is yet another feature of the \family sans List \family default environment: As you can see in the examples, \SpecialChar LyX left-justifies the item labels by default. You can use additional \family sans HFills \family default to change how \SpecialChar LyX justifies the item label. \family sans Hfills \family default are documented in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Horizontal-Space" \end_inset . Here are some examples: \begin_inset Newpage pagebreak \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring 00.00.0000 Left The default for \family sans List \family default item labels. \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring 00.00.0000 \begin_inset space \hfill{} \end_inset Right One \family sans HFill \family default at the beginning of the label right justifies it. \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring 00.00.0000 \begin_inset space \hfill{} \end_inset Center \begin_inset space \hfill{} \end_inset One \family sans HFill \family default at the beginning of the label and one at the end centers it. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Customized Lists \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Lists !

There insert the command \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold start=number \end_layout \begin_layout Standard where \emph on number \emph default is the number with which you want to resume the list.

To use the letter class, you need to use specific paragraph environments in a specific order, otherwise \SpecialChar LaTeX gags on the document. In contrast, you can use the \family sans Address \family default and \family sans Right \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Address \family default paragraph environments anywhere with no problem. You can even nest them inside other environments, though you can't nest anything in them. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Of course, you're not limited to using \family sans Address \family default and \family sans Right \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Address \family default for letters only. \family sans Right \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Address \family default , in particular, is useful for creating article titles like those used in some European academic papers. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Usage \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Address-Usage" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \family sans Address \family default environment formats text in the style of an address, which is also used for the opening and signature in some countries. Similarly, the \family sans Right \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Address \family default environment formats text in the style of a right-justified address, which is used for the sender's address and today's date in some countries. Here's an example of each: \end_layout \begin_layout Right Address Right Address \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Who I am \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Where I am \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset When is it? What is today? \end_layout \begin_layout Standard That was \family sans Right \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Address \family default . Notice that the lines all have the same left margin, which \SpecialChar LyX sets to fit the largest block of text on a single line. Here's an example of the \family sans Address \family default environment: \end_layout \begin_layout Address Who are you \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Where do I send this \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Your post office and country \end_layout \begin_layout Standard As you can see, both \family sans Address \family default and \family sans Right \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Address \family default add extra space between themselves and the next paragraph. If you hit \family sans Return \family default in either of these environments, \SpecialChar LyX resets the nesting depth and sets the environment to \family sans Standard \family default . This makes sense, since \family sans Return \family default is the \family typewriter paragraph-break \family default function, and the individual lines of an address are not paragraphs. Thus, you have to use \family typewriter break-line \family default ( \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "newline-insert newline" \end_inset or \family sans Formatting \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Character\SpecialChar menuseparator Line \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Break \family default from the \family sans Insert \family default menu) to start a new line in an \family sans Address \family default or \family sans Right \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Address \family default environment. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Academic Writing \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Most academic writing begins with an abstract and ends with a bibliography or list of references. \SpecialChar LyX contains paragraph environments for both of these. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection \family sans Abstract \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Abstracts \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \family sans Abstract \family default environment is used for the abstract of an article. Technically, you could use this environment anywhere, but you really should only use it at the beginning of the document, after the title. Also, don't bother trying to nest \family sans Abstract \family default in anything else or vice versa. It won't work. The \family sans Abstract \family default environment is only useful in the article and report document classes. The book document classes ignores the \family sans Abstract \family default completely, and it's utterly silly to use \family sans Abstract \family default in a letter document class. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \family sans Abstract \family default environment does several things for you. First, it puts the centered label \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Abstract \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset above the text. The label and the text of the abstract are separated by some extra vertical space. Second, it typesets everything in a smaller font, just as you'd expect. Lastly, it adds a bit of extra vertical space between the abstract and the subsequent text. Well, that's how it will appear on the \SpecialChar LyX screen. The appearance in the output depends on the used article or report class. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Starting a new paragraph by hitting \family sans Return \family default does not reset the paragraph environment. The new paragraph will still be in the \family sans Abstract \family default environment. So, you will have to change the paragraph environment yourself when you finish entering the abstract of your document. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Float figure wide false sideways false status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \align center \begin_inset Graphics filename ../clipart/Abstract.pdf \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset Caption Standard \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "cap:Paragraph-in-the" \end_inset Paragraph in the \family sans Abstract \family default environment \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard We'd love to give you directly an example of the \family sans Abstract \family default environment, but since this document is in the \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset book \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset class, we can't do this. We inserted it therefore as figure \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "cap:Paragraph-in-the" \end_inset .

Technically, you could use this environment anywhere, but you really should only use it at the end of the document. Nesting \family sans Bibliography \family default in anything else or vice versa won't work. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard When you first open a \family sans Bibliography \family default environment, \SpecialChar LyX adds a large vertical space, followed by the heading \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Bibliography \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset or \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset References, \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset depending on the document class. The heading is in a large boldface font. Each paragraph of the \family sans Bibliography \family default environment is a bibliography entry. Thus, hitting \family sans Return \family default does not reset the paragraph environment. Each new paragraph is still in the \family sans Bibliography \family default environment. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There is another, usually better way to include references in your document by using a Bib\SpecialChar TeX database. For more information on that, and for a detailed description of \SpecialChar LyX 's bibliography handling, have a look at in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Bibliography" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection \SpecialChar LyX \family sans -Code \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Paragraph ! \SpecialChar LyX code \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:LyX-Code" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \family sans \SpecialChar LyX -Code \family default environment is another \SpecialChar LyX extension. It type-sets text in a typewriter-style font. It also treats the \family sans Space \family default key as a fixed whitespace; \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout In the \family sans \SpecialChar LyX -Code \family default environment, the \family sans Space \family default key is treated as a \family sans Protected \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Blank \family default instead of an end-of-word marker. \end_layout \end_inset this is the only case in which you can type multiple whitespaces in \SpecialChar LyX . If you need to insert blank lines, you'll still need to use \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "newline-insert newline" \end_inset (the \family typewriter break-line \family default function). \family sans Return \family default breaks paragraphs. Note, however, that \family sans Return \family default does not reset the paragraph environment. So, when you finish using the \family sans \SpecialChar LyX -Code \family default environment, you'll need to change the paragraph environment yourself. Also, you can nest the \family sans \SpecialChar LyX -Code \family default environment inside of others. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There are a few quirks with this environment: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize You can't use \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "newline-insert newline" \end_inset at the beginning of a new paragraph (i. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space \space{} \end_inset you can't follow \family sans Return \family default with a \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "newline-insert newline" \end_inset ). \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize You can't follow a \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "newline-insert newline" \end_inset with a \family sans Space \family default . \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize Use a \family sans Return \family default to begin a new paragraph, then you can use a \family sans Space \family default . \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Or: use \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "space-insert protected" \end_inset instead. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Itemize You can't have an empty paragraph or an empty line. You must put at least one \family sans Space \family default in any line you want blank. Otherwise, \SpecialChar LaTeX generates errors. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize You cannot get the typewriter double quotes by typing \family sans " \family default since that will insert \emph on real \emph default quotes. You get the typewriter double quotes with \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "self-insert \"" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Here's an example: \end_layout \begin_layout LyX-Code #include \end_layout \begin_layout LyX-Code \end_layout \begin_layout LyX-Code int main(void) \end_layout \begin_layout LyX-Code { \end_layout \begin_layout LyX-Code printf("Hello World! \backslash n"); \end_layout \begin_layout LyX-Code return 0; \end_layout \begin_layout LyX-Code } \end_layout \begin_layout Standard This is just the standard \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Hello world! \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset program. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \family sans \SpecialChar LyX -Code \family default has one purpose: to typeset code, such as program source, shell scripts, rc-files, and so on.

This allows you to create blocks that inherit some of the properties of another block. For example you have three main points in an outline, but point #2 also has two subpoints. In other words, you have a list inside of another list, with the inner list \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset attached \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset to item #2: \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate one \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate two \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate sublist – item #1 \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate sublist – item #2 \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate three \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You put a list inside a list by nesting one list inside the other. Nesting an environment is quite simple: Select \family sans Increase \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset List \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Depth \family default or \family sans Decrease \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset List \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Depth \family default from the \family sans Edit \family default menu to change the nesting depth of the current paragraph (the status bar will tell you how far you are nested). Instead of the menu, you can also use the toolbar buttons \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset and \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "depth-decrement" \end_inset or the convenient key bindings \family sans Tab \family default and \family sans Shift-Tab \family default or \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset and \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-decrement" \end_inset to change the nesting level. The change will work on the current selection if you have made one (allowing you to change the nesting of several paragraphs at once), or the current paragraph. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Note that \SpecialChar LyX only changes the nesting depth if it can. If it's invalid to do so, nothing happens if you try to change the depth. Additionally, if you change the depth of one paragraph, it affects the depth of every paragraph nested inside of it. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Nesting isn't limited to lists. In \SpecialChar LyX , you can nest just about anything inside anything else, as you're about to find out. This is the real power of nesting paragraph environments. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection What You Can and Can't Nest \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Before we fire a list of paragraph environments at you, we need to tell you a little bit more about how nesting works. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The question if nesting a paragraph environment is possible, is a bit more complicated than a simple yes or no. There are three types of paragraph environments: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Completely unnestable \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Fully nestable, you can nest them inside things and you can also nest other things inside them. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize A third type, you can nest them into other environments, but you can't nest anything into them. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Here's a list of the three types of nesting behavior, and which paragraph environments have them: \end_layout \begin_layout Description Unnestable Can't nest them. Can't nest into them. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Bibliography \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Abstract \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Title \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Author \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Date \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Description Fully \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Nestable You can nest them.

Tables etc. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There are several things that aren't paragraph environments, but which are affected by nesting anyhow. They are: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize equations \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize tables \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize figures \end_layout \begin_layout Standard ( \begin_inset Note Greyedout status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default Figures and tables in \family sans Floats \family default are not affected by this. \end_layout \end_inset Have a look at section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Floats" \end_inset for more information about \family sans Floats \family default .) \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \SpecialChar LyX can treat these three objects as either a word or as a paragraph. If a figure, table, or an equation is inline, it goes wherever the paragraph it is in goes. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard On the other hand, if you have an equation, figure or table in a \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset paragraph \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset of its own, it behaves just like a \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset nestable-inside \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset paragraph environment. You can nest it into any environment, but you obviously can't nest anything into it. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Here's an example with a table: \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Item One \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate This is (a) and it's nested. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace 0.3cm \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none a \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none b \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none c \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none d \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace 0.3cm \end_inset \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate This is (b). The table is actually nested inside (a). \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate Back out again. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If we hadn't nested the table at all, the list would look like this: \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Item One \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate This is (a) and it's nested. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace 0.3cm \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none a \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none b \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none c \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none d \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace 0.3cm \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate This is (b).

In fact, it's not nested at all. \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Back out again. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Notice how item (b) is not only no longer nested, but is also the first item of a new list! \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There's another trap you can fall into: Nesting the table, but not going deep enough. \SpecialChar LyX then turns anything after the table into a new sublist. \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Item One \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate This is (a) and it's nested. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace 0.3cm \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none a \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none b \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none c \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none d \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace 0.3cm \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate This is (b). The table is actually nested inside Item One, but \emph on not \emph default inside (a). \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate Back out again. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard As you can see, item (b) turned into the first item of a new list, but a new list \emph on inside \emph default item 1. The same thing would have happened to a figure or an equation. So, if you nest tables, figures or equations, make sure you go to the right depth! \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Usage and General Features \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Speaking of levels, \SpecialChar LyX can perform up to a six-fold nesting. In other words, \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset level #6 \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset is the innermost possible depth. Here's an example to illustrate what we mean: \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate level #1 – outermost \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate level #2 \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate level #3 \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate level #4 \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize level #5 \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize level #6 \end_layout \end_deeper \end_deeper \end_deeper \end_deeper \end_deeper \begin_layout Standard There are two exceptions to the six-fold nesting limit, and you can see both of them in the example. Unlike the other fully-nestable environments, you can only perform a four-fold nesting with the \family sans Enumerate \family default and \family sans Itemize \family default environments. For example, if we tried to nest another \family sans Enumerate \family default list inside item \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset A. \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset , we would get errors. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Some Examples \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Nesting ! Examples \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The best way to explain just what you can do with nesting is by illustration. We have several examples of nested environments. In them, we explain how we created the example, so that you can reproduce them. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Example 1: The Six-fold Way and Mixed Nesting \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring MMM #1-a This is the outermost level. It's a \family sans List \family default environment. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring MMM #2-a This is level #2. We created it by using \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset followed by \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset . \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring MMM #3-a This is level #3. This time, we just hit \family sans Return \family default , then used \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset twice in a row. We could have also created it the same way as we did the previous level, by hitting \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset followed by \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset . \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Standard This is actually a \family sans Standard \family default environment, nested inside of \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset #3-a \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . So, it's at level #4. We did this by hitting \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset , then \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset , then changing the paragraph environment to \family sans Standard \family default . Do this to create list items with more than one paragraph — it also works for the \family sans Description \family default , \family sans Enumerate \family default , and \family sans Itemize \family default environments! \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Here's another \family sans Standard \family default paragraph, also at level #4, made with just a \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring MMM #4-a This is level #4. We hit \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset and changed the paragraph environment back to \family sans List \family default . Remember — we can't nest anything inside a \family sans Standard \family default environment, which is why we're still at level #4. However, we \emph on can \emph default keep nesting things inside \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset #3-a \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring MMM #5-a This is level #5\SpecialChar ldots \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring MMM #6-a \SpecialChar ldots and this is level #6. By now, you should know how we made these two. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring MMM #5-b Back to level #5. Just hit \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset followed by a \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-decrement" \end_inset . \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring MMM #4-b After another \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset followed by a \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-decrement" \end_inset , we're back at level #4. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring MMM #3-b Back to level #3. By now it should be obvious how we did this. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring MMM #2-b Back to level #2. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring MMM #1-b And last, back to the outermost level, #1. After this sentence, we'll hit \family sans Return \family default and change the paragraph environment back to \family sans Standard \family default to end the list. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard We could have also used the \family sans Description \family default , \family sans Quote \family default , \family sans Quotation \family default , or even the \family sans Verse \family default environment in place of the \family sans List \family default environment. The example would have worked exactly the same. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Example 2: Inheritance \end_layout \begin_layout LyX-Code This is the \SpecialChar LyX -Code environment, at level #1, the outermost \end_layout \begin_layout LyX-Code level. Now we'll hit \family sans Return \family default , then \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset , after which, we'll change to the \family sans Enumerate \family default environment. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate This is the \family sans Enumerate \family default environment, at level #2. \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Notice how the nested \family sans Enumerate \family default not only inherits its margins from its parent environment ( \family sans \SpecialChar LyX -Code \family default ), but also inherits its font and spacing! \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Standard We ended this example by hitting \family sans Return \family default . After that, we needed to reset the paragraph environment to \family sans Standard \family default and reset the nesting depth by using \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-decrement" \end_inset once. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Example 3: Labels, Levels, and the \family sans Enumerate \family default and \family sans Itemize \family default Environments \begin_inset Argument 1 status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Example #3: Labels, Levels and other list environments \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate This is level #1, in an \family sans Enumerate \family default paragraph environment. We're actually going to nest a bunch of these. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate This is level #2. We used \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset followed by \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset . Now, what happens if we nest an \family sans Itemize \family default environment inside of this one? It will be at level #3, but what will its label be? An asterisk? \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize No! It's a bullet. This is the \emph on first \emph default \family sans Itemize \family default environment, even though it's at level #3. So, its label is a bullet. (We got here by using \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset , then \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset , then changing the environment to \family sans Itemize \family default .) \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Itemize Here's level #4, produced using \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset , then \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset . We'll do that again\SpecialChar ldots \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate \SpecialChar ldots to get to level #5. This time, however, we also changed the paragraph environment back to \family sans Enumerate \family default . Notice the type of numbering, it is \emph on lowercase Roman \emph default , because we are in the \emph on thirdfold \emph default \family sans Enumerate \family default environment (i. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. it is an \family sans Enumerate \family default inside an \family sans Enumerate \family default inside an \family sans Enumerate \family default ). \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate What happens if we \emph on don't \emph default change the paragraph environment, but decrease the nesting depth? What type of numbering does \SpecialChar LyX use? \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Oh, as if you couldn't guess by now, we're just using \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset to keep the current environment and depth but create a new item. \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Let's use \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-decrement" \end_inset to decrease the depth after the next \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset . \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate This is level #4. Look what type of label \SpecialChar LyX is using! \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate This is level #3. Even though we've changed levels, \SpecialChar LyX is still using a lowercase Roman numeral as the label.Why? \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Because, even though the nesting depth has changed, the paragraph is \emph on still \emph default a thirdfold \family sans Enumerate \family default environment. Notice, however, that \SpecialChar LyX \emph on did \emph default reset the counter for the label. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate Another \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-decrement" \end_inset sequence, and we're back to level #2. This time, we not only changed the nesting depth, but we also moved back into the twofold-nested \family sans Enumerate \family default environment. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate The same thing happens if we do another \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-decrement" \end_inset sequence and return to level #1, the outermost level. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Lastly, we reset the environment to \family sans Standard \family default . As you can see, the level number doesn't correspond to what type of labeling \SpecialChar LyX uses for the \family sans Enumerate \family default and \family sans Itemize \family default environments. The number of other \family sans Enumerate \family default environments surrounding it determines what kind of label \SpecialChar LyX uses for an \family sans Enumerate \family default item. The same rule applies for the \family sans Itemize \family default environment, as well. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Example 4: Going Bonkers \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate We're going to go totally nuts now. We won't nest as deep as in the other examples, nor will we go into the same detail with how we did it. (level #1: \family sans Enumerate \family default ) \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Standard ( \family sans Return, \family default \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset \family sans , Standard \family default : level #2) We'll stick an encapsulated description of how we created the example in parentheses someplace. For example, the two keybindings are how we changed the depth. The environment name is the name of the current environment. Either before or after this, we'll put in the level. \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate ( \family sans Return, Enumerate \family default : level #1) This is the next item in the list. \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Verse Now we'll add verse. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset It will get much worse. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset ( \family sans Return, \family default \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset \family sans , Verse \family default : level #2) \end_layout \begin_layout Verse Fiddle dee, Fiddle doo. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Bippitey boppitey boo! \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset ( \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset \family sans ) \end_layout \begin_layout Verse Here comes a table: \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace 0.3cm \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none one-fish \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none two-fish \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none red-fish \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none blue-fish \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Verse ( \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset \family sans , Table, \family default \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-increment" \end_inset 3 times, \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset \family sans , Verse, \family default \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "depth-decrement" \end_inset ) \end_layout \end_deeper \begin_layout Enumerate ( \family sans Return, Enumerate \family default : level #1) This is another item. Note that selecting a \family sans Table \family default resets the nesting depth to level #1, so we increased the nesting depth 3 times to put the table inside the \family sans Verse \family default environment. \end_layout \begin_layout Quotation We're now ending the \family sans Enumerate \family default list and changing to \family sans Quotation \family default . We're still at level #1. We want to show you some of the things you can do by mixing environments. The next set of paragraphs is a \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset quoted letter. \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset We'll nest both the \family sans Address \family default and \family sans Right \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Address \family default environments inside of this one, then use another nested \family sans Quotation \family default for the letter body. We'll use \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break inverse" \end_inset to preserve the depth. Remember that you need to use \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "newline-insert newline" \end_inset to create multiple lines inside the \family sans Address \family default and \family sans Right \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Address \family default environments. Here it goes: \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_deeper \begin_layout Right Address 1234 Nowhere Rd. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Moosegroin, MT 00100 \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset 9-6-96 \end_layout \begin_layout Address Dear Mr. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Fizlewitz: \end_layout \begin_layout Quotation We regret to inform you that we cannot fill your order for 50 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset L of compressed methane gas due to circumstances beyond our control.

Fills \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Horizontal fills (HFills) are a special \SpecialChar LyX feature for adding extra space in a uniform fashion. An HFill is actually a variable length space, whose length always equals the remaining space between the left and right margins. If there is more than one HFill on a line, they divide the available space equally between themselves. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Here a few examples what you can do with them: \end_layout \begin_layout Quote \noindent This is on the left side \begin_inset space \hfill{} \end_inset This is on the right \end_layout \begin_layout Quote \noindent Left \begin_inset space \hfill{} \end_inset Middle \begin_inset space \hfill{} \end_inset Right \end_layout \begin_layout Quote \noindent Left \begin_inset space \hfill{} \end_inset 1/3 Left \begin_inset space \hfill{} \end_inset \begin_inset space \hfill{} \end_inset Right \end_layout \begin_layout Standard That was an example in the \family sans Quote \family default environment.

If you need space in this case anyway, set the \family sans Protect \family default option in the space dialog. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Phantom Space \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Phantom-Space" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Spacing ! Phantom \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Sometimes you want to insert space with exactly the length of a phrase. E. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space \space{} \end_inset you want to create the following multiple choice question: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace medskip \end_inset What is correct English?: \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Mr. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Edge would have been jumps the gun. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \begin_inset Phantom HPhantom status open \begin_layout Plain Layout Mr. Edge \end_layout \end_inset has to be jumped \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \begin_inset Phantom HPhantom status open \begin_layout Plain Layout Mr. Edge \end_layout \end_inset jumps \begin_inset VSpace medskip \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard So that the choices appear exactly after the phrase \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Mr. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Edge \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . To get this, you can use the phantom insets available via the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Formatting\SpecialChar menuseparator Phantom \family default . In our case insert a horizontal phantom at the beginning of the last two lines and insert \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Mr. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Edge \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset into the phantom inset (note the space after \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Edge \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ). A phantom insets prints only the space of its content (like a placeholder). That is why it is named \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset phantom \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . The normal phantom ouputs the width and heigth of the content as space, while the horizontal and vertical variant only outputs the corresponding dimension. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Vertical Space \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Vertical-Space" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Spacing !

There you find the following sizes: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \family sans SmallSkip \family default , \family sans MedSkip \family default and \family sans BigSkip \family default are \SpecialChar LaTeX sizes which depend on the font size of the document. \family sans DefSkip \family default is the skip adjusted in the dialog \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings \family default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Document !

Fills \end_layout \end_inset is a variable space, set so that the space is maximal within one page. An example: You have only two short paragraphs on one page with a vfill between them. Then the first paragraph is placed at the top of the page and the second one at the bottom, because the space between them is then maximal. \family sans VFill \family default s work like \family sans HFill \family default s: they fill the remaining vertical space on a page with blank space. \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \family sans HFill \family default s are described in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Horizontal-Space" \end_inset . \end_layout \end_inset If there are several \family sans VFill \family default s on a page, they divide the remaining vertical space equally between themselves. You can therefore use \family sans VFill \family default s to center text on a page, or even place text 2/3 down a page. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \family sans Custom \family default are custom spaces in units explained in Appendix \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "cha:Units-available-in" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default \series medium When the extra vertical space would be in the output at the top/bottom of a page, the space is only added if you have also checked the option \family sans Protect \family default . \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Paragraph Alignment \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can change the paragraph alignment with the \family sans Edit\SpecialChar menuseparator Paragraph Settings \family default dialog.

The other three alignments should be self-explanatory, and look like this: \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align right This paragraph is right aligned, \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align center this one is centered, \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align left this one is left aligned. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Forced Page Breaks \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Page breaks ! Forced \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Forced-Page-Breaks" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you don't like the way \SpecialChar LaTeX does the pagebreaks in your document, you can force a page break where you want one. Normally this will not be necessary, because \SpecialChar LaTeX is good at page breaking. Only if you use a lot of \family sans Floats \family default , \SpecialChar LaTeX 's page breaking algorithm can fail. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard We recommend not to use forced pagebreaks until the text is finished and until you have checked in the preview to see if you \emph on really \emph default have to change the page breaking. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There are two types of pagebreaks: One that ends the page without any special action. This can be inserted above or below a paragraph via the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Formatting\SpecialChar menuseparator New \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Page \family default . The second type, that is inserted via the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Formatting\SpecialChar menuseparator Page \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Break \family default , ends a page but stretches the content of the page, so that it fills out the complete page. This type is useful to avoid whitespace when a page break produces a page on which only the last few lines are absent. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You might try to use a page break to ensure that a figure or table appears at the top of a page. This is, of course, the wrong way to do it. \SpecialChar LyX gives you a way of automatically ensuring that your figures and tables appear at the top of a page (or the bottom, or on their own page) without having to worry about what precedes or follows your figure or table. See chapter \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "chap:Floats-and-Notes" \end_inset to learn more about \family sans Floats \family default . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Clear Page Breaks \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Clear-Page-Breaks" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Page breaks ! Clear \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Rather than forced pagebreaks where the content behind the break is placed directly on the next page, you can also clear pages while breaking them. That means that the current paragraph is terminated and everything, including unprocessed floats, from the earlier part of the document are placed behind it, if necessary by adding pages. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can insert a clear page break with the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Formatting\SpecialChar menuseparator Clear \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Page \family default . When you have a two-sided document like a book, you can use the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Formatting\SpecialChar menuseparator Clear \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Double \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Page \family default to insert a clear page break that assures that the next page is a right-hand page (odd-numbered), if necessary by adding a page. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Forced Line Breaks \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Line breaks \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Forced-Line-Breaks" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Similar to page breaks there are two types of line breaks: One that simply breaks the line. You can force this line break within a paragraph by selecting \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Formatting\SpecialChar menuseparator Ragged \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Line \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Break \family default or with \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "newline-insert newline" \end_inset . Another type that is inserted via the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Formatting\SpecialChar menuseparator Justified \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Line \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Break \family default breaks the line and stretches it so that it fills out the whole space between the page margins. This is necessary to avoid \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset fringes \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset in justified paragraphs due to whitespace introduced by line breaks. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You shouldn't use forced line breaks to correct \SpecialChar LaTeX 's line breaking, as \SpecialChar LaTeX is very good at line breaking. There are, however, a number of situations where it is necessary to actively set a line break, e. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space \space{} \end_inset in a poem or for an address (see sections \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Quote" \end_inset , \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Verse" \end_inset and \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Address-Usage" \end_inset ). \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Horizontal Lines \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Horizontal-Lines" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Horizontal lines \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \noindent \begin_inset CommandInset line LatexCommand rule offset "0.5ex" width "100line%" height "1pt" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In the dialog \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Formatting\SpecialChar menuseparator Horizontal \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Line \family default you can insert horizontal lines.

Types \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There are two types of fonts: \end_layout \begin_layout Description Vector \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset fonts \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Fonts ! Vector- \end_layout \end_inset are fonts, built from outlines of the single glyphs (i. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. characters) in the font. This means that each glyph is defined using mathematical curves that are well suited for scaling to any requested size. This mathematical definition is interpreted by the font renderer and the curve is filled out with pixels according to the size and glyph. This means that outline fonts will look pretty good in all sizes. Only at very small sizes where each pixel has to be very carefully computed to provide a good image, it might be hard to provide a good rendering. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset That could mean that one only needs to define one font size and scale them. But to achieve a better quality, many fonts define several font sizes. That improves the appearance because you need more details at large font sizes than at small ones. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset The font types \family typewriter TrueType \family default , \family typewriter OpenType \family default , and \family typewriter Type \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 1 \family default are vector fonts. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Bitmap \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset fonts \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Fonts ! Bitmap- \end_layout \end_inset on the other hand, are defined by bitmap graphics from the start, so they will look good at all the sizes they are meant for. However, they don't scale well, because in order to scale a glyph, each pixel is enlarged into several pixels. It is the same effect that happens if you try to enlarge a picture in a picture manipulation program. In order to relieve this effect, bitmap fonts are typically provided in several fixed sizes typically from around 8 pixels high up to 34 pixels or so high in steps according to what is believed to be useful. The advantage of bitmap fonts is that no complicated computations are necessary to display each glyph, so bitmap fonts are thus faster displayed than scalable fonts. The disadvantage is that sizes that don't exist as fixed versions have to be scaled by doubling pixels, and thus look bad. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Bitmap fonts are named \family typewriter Type \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 3 \family default in PostScript- and PDF-documents. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The result of all this, is that bitmap fonts are best for the size they are designed for, while scalable fonts are good for nearly all sizes. So one needs fewer font size definitions for scalable fonts. That's the reason why nearly all text rendering and typesetting programs use scalable fonts. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To test which fonts are used in a PDF-document, you can have a look into its document properties. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Many modern typesetting and markup languages have begun to move towards specifying character styles rather than specifying a particular font. For example, instead of changing to an italicized version of the current font to emphasize text, you use an \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset emphasized style \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset instead. This concept fits in perfectly with \SpecialChar LyX . In \SpecialChar LyX , you do things based on contexts, rather than focusing on typesetting details. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection \SpecialChar LaTeX font support \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:LaTeX-font-support" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Traditionally, \SpecialChar LaTeX uses its own fonts. That is to say, you cannot directly access the fonts installed on your operating system, but you have to use specific fonts provided by your \SpecialChar LaTeX distribution. The reason is that \SpecialChar LaTeX needs some extra information about the fonts, which have to be provided by additional files and packages. The downside of this is that your font choice is somewhat limited, compared to usual word processors. On the other hand this comes with the advantage that the provided fonts are generally of very good quality, and that \SpecialChar LaTeX files are very portable across different machines. Also, the range of fonts supported by traditional \SpecialChar LaTeX was increased a lot meanwhile so that you can find packages for many free and commercial fonts. In \SpecialChar LyX , only a subset of these are directly selectable via the user interface (see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Document-Font" \end_inset for details). However, all others are available if you enter the respective \SpecialChar LaTeX code in the document preamble (please refer to the documentation of your desired font). \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Furthermore, recent developments brought some new \SpecialChar LaTeX engines that are also able to directly access fonts that are installed for your operating system (OS), namely Xe\SpecialChar TeX and Lua\SpecialChar TeX . Both engines are now supported by \SpecialChar LyX . By using them, you can use theoretically any OpenType or TrueType font that is installed on your system. The next section describes how to use these OS fonts. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default In practice, some fonts might fail due to bad metrics and other font deficienci es; so you might have to experiment. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default Xe\SpecialChar TeX and especially Lua\SpecialChar TeX , are still rather new and thus not as mature as tradition al \SpecialChar LaTeX or PDF\SpecialChar TeX . \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Document Font and Font size \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Document-Font" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Font !

There are three ways to use one: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize select the \family sans Latin \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Modern \family default fonts, which is the recommended choice if you want to keep the look of \family typewriter cm \family default / \family typewriter ec \family default . \family sans Latin \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Modern \family default was developed for the \SpecialChar LaTeX community in order to replace \family typewriter cm \family default as the default font. It covers a huge range of glyphs and several font shapes. Except for some details, where the appearance was improved, \family sans Latin \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Modern \family default looks identical to \family typewriter cm \family default .; \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout One difference is improved kerning. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize or select the \family sans AE \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (Almost \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset European) \family default fonts in (the rare) case that \family sans Latin \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Modern \family default is not available to you or does not work, and you still want to emulate the look of \family typewriter cm \family default / \family typewriter ec \family default . \family typewriter AE \family default is a virtual font. Virtual means that it \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset steals \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset outline \family typewriter cm \family default -glyphs from other fonts. This has the disadvantage that some characters are missing, like the French guillemets ( \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset « \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset and \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset » \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ) \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Loading the \SpecialChar LaTeX -package \series bold aeguill \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! aeguill \end_layout \end_inset with the document preamble line \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \series bold \backslash usepackage[ec]{aeguill} \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \series default will fix the guillemet problem. \end_layout \end_inset and that accented characters are not \emph on one \emph default glyph, but build of \emph on two \emph default characters, the accent and the letter. Therefore you cannot search for words with accented characters in documents using the \family typewriter AE \family default fonts. If you search for example for the French word \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset rève \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset in a PDF, you won't get any result, because the PDF-viewer searches for the glyph \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset è \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset and not for the glyph \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset e + \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset ̀ \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize If you do not like the look of \family typewriter cm \family default / \family typewriter ec \family default , you can of course select one of the other provided vector fonts, e. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \family sans Times \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Roman \family default or \family typewriter \family sans Palatino \family default .

That means its glyphs are smaller than the ones from other fonts to fit into the small newspaper columns. Therefore \family sans Times \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Roman \family default is not the optimal choice for larger documents like books. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard For the font size there are four possible values: \family sans default, 10 \family default , \family sans 11 \family default , and \family sans 12 \family default . The size of \family sans default \family default depends on your \SpecialChar LaTeX -system, normally it is equal to the font size 10. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The font sizes are the \emph on base size \emph default . That means that \SpecialChar LyX scales all other possible font sizes (such as those used in footnotes, super-, and subscripts) by this value. You can fine-tune the font size of text parts via the \family sans Text \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Style \family default dialog if needed. The possible font sizes for text parts are explained in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Fine-Tuning-with-the" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The field \family sans CJK \family default allows users of the languages Chinese, Japanese, Korean (CJK) to specify a font to display the script characters. \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout The font will be the argument for the commands of the \SpecialChar LaTeX -package \series bold CJK \series default .

You can activate both of these styles via keybindings, the menus, and the toolbar. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To activate the \family sans Noun \family default style, do one of the following: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize click on the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "font-noun" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize use the key binding \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "font-noun" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard These commands are all toggles. That is, if \family sans Noun \family default style is already active, they deactivate it. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard One typically uses the \family sans Noun \family default style for proper names. For example: \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \noun on Matthias Ettrich \noun default is the original author of \SpecialChar LyX . \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard A more widely used character style is the \family sans Emphasized \family default style. You can activate (or deactivate — it's also a toggle) the \family sans Emphasized \family default style by: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize clicking on the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "font-emph" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize using the keybindings \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "font-emph" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Normally the \family sans Emphasized \family default style is equivalent to an italic font but some document classes or \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages use a different font. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard We've been using the \family sans Emphasized \family default style all over the place in this document. Here's one more example: \end_layout \begin_layout Quotation \emph on Don't overuse character styles! \end_layout \begin_layout Standard It's also a warning in addition to an example. One's writing should parallel ordinary conversation. Since we don't all constantly scream at each other, we should also avoid the common tendency to overuse character style. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can always reset to the default font using the key binding \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "font-default" \end_inset or the dialog \family sans Edit\SpecialChar menuseparator Text \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Style \family default . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Fine-Tuning with the Text Style dialog \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Fine-Tuning-with-the" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Text Style \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There are always occasions when you will need to do some fine-tuning, so \SpecialChar LyX gives you a way to create a custom character style. For example, an academic journal or a corporation may have a style sheet requiring a sans-serif font be used in certain situations. Also, writers sometimes use a different font to offset a character's thoughts from ordinary dialog. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Before we document how to use custom character style, we want to issue a warning yet again: Don't overuse character styles! \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Documents that overuse different fonts and sizes are not well readable and tend to look as if someone has knocked huge holes in them. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To use custom character styles, open the \family sans Edit\SpecialChar menuseparator Text \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Style \family default dialog or press the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "dialog-show character" \end_inset . There are several boxes on this dialog, each corresponding to a different font property which you can choose. You can choose an option for one of these properties, or select \family sans No \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset change \family default , which keeps the current state of that property. The item \family sans Reset \family default will reset the property to whatever is the default. You can use this to reset attributes across a bunch of different paragraph environments in a snap. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The font properties, and their options (in addition to \family sans No \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset change \family default and \family sans Reset \family default ) are: \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring 00.00.0000 \family sans Family \family default The \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset overall look \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset of the font.

This might seem like the same as \shape italic Italic \shape default , but it is actually a bit different. Emphasized is a \emph on logical \emph default attribute.

Text marked in this way will be underlined in blue to indicate the change (only within \SpecialChar LyX ). \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset If you have for example a longer German Text in your document, \SpecialChar LaTeX respects the German hyphenation rules automatically. When using the spell checking (see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Spellchecking" \end_inset ) the German-marked text will be checked according to the German dictionary \end_layout \begin_layout Standard So you have a huge number of combinations to choose from. Once you've chosen a new character style via the \family sans Edit\SpecialChar menuseparator Text \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Style \family default dialog, the settings are saved. You can activate them using the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "textstyle-apply" \end_inset . The button lets you toggle the state of your custom character style even when the dialog isn't visible. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To completely reset the character style to the default, use \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "font-default" \end_inset . If you want to toggle only those properties that you have just changed (suppose you just set the shape to \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset slanted \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset and the series to \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset bold \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ), set the \family sans Toggle \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset all \family default switch and press \family sans Apply \family default . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You should also know something about the differences between the three main font types \family sans serif \family default , \family sans sans \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset serif \family default , and \family sans typewriter \family default : \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Typewriter \family default is a so called \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset monospaced \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset font, that means every character has the same width, the \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset i \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset is as wide as the \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset m \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset .

The following example will show the difference: \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset text with serifs \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \family sans text without serifs \family default \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Serifs facilitate quick and easy reading. These fonts are therefore used as default (named \family sans roman \family default ). \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \family sans Sans serif \family default don't use serifs. This font type is therefore often used for headings and short texts. We use it in this document to highlight menu names. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard We conclude with the same warning once again: Don't overuse the fonts. They are, more often than not, a kludge and a bad substitute for good writing. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Printing and Previewing \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Overview \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Now that we have covered some of the basic features of document preparation using \SpecialChar LyX , you probably want to know how to print out your masterpiece.

As \SpecialChar LyX allows you to use any known image format in your document, it has to convert them in the background to EPS.

When you insert a margin note via the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Marginal \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Note \family default or the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "marginalnote-insert" \end_inset , you will see a box with the label \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset margin \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset appearing within your text.

In double-sided documents they appear in the outer margin – left on even pages, right on odd pages. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard For further information about marginal notes see section \emph on Margin \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Notes \emph default of the \emph on Embedded \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Objects \emph default manual. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Graphics and Images \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Images \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Graphics \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Graphics" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To insert an image in your document, place the cursor at the text position you want and click on the toolbar icon \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "dialog-show-new-inset graphics" \end_inset or select \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Graphics \family default from the menu. Then a dialog will appear to choose the file to load. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard This dialog has numerous mostly self-explanatory parameters. The \family sans Graphics \family default tab allows you to choose your image file. The image can be transformed by setting a rotation angle and a scaling factor. The scaling units are explained in Appendix \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "cha:Units-available-in" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In the tab \family sans Clipping \family default it is possible to set image coordinates to adjust the height and width of the image in the output. The coordinates can also be calculated automatically by pressing the button \family sans Get \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset from \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset file \family default . The option \family sans Clip \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset to \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset bounding \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset box \family default will only print the image region within the given coordinates. Normally you don't need to take care about image coordinates and can ignore the tab \family sans Clipping \family default . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In the \family sans \SpecialChar LaTeX and \SpecialChar LyX options \family default tab \SpecialChar LaTeX experts can specify additional \SpecialChar LaTeX options. You can also specify here the appearance of the image inside \SpecialChar LyX . The option \family sans Draft \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset mode \family default has the effect that the image doesn't appear in the output, only a frame with the image size is printed. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The graphics dialog can be called at any time by clicking on an image. The image will appear in the output exactly at the position where it is in the text. This is an example image within a separate, horizontally centered paragraph: \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Graphics filename ../clipart/mobius.eps scale 70 rotateOrigin center \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you need image captions and want to reference images, you have to put the image into a float, see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Figure-Floats" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Image Formats \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Images ! Formats \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Image-Formats" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can insert images in any known file format. But as we explained in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Output-file-formats" \end_inset , every output document format allows only a few image formats. \SpecialChar LyX uses therefore the program \family typewriter ImageMagick \family default in the background to convert the images to the right format. To increase your workflow by avoiding these conversions in the background, you can use only the image formats listed in the subsections of section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Output-file-formats" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Similar to fonts there are two types of image formats: \end_layout \begin_layout Description Bitmap \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset images consist of pixel values, often in a compressed form. They are therefore not fully scalable and look pixelated in large zooms. Well-known bitmap image formats are \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Graphics Interchange Format \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (GIF, file extension \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter .gif \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ) \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout GIF|see \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout { \end_layout \end_inset Image formats \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout } \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset , \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Portable Network Graphics \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (PNG, file extension \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter .png \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ) \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout PNG|see \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout { \end_layout \end_inset Image formats \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout } \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset , and \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Joint Photographic Experts Group \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (JPG, file extension \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter .jpg \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset or \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter .jpeg \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ) \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout JPG|see \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout { \end_layout \end_inset Image formats \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout } \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Description Scalable \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset images consist of vectors and can therefore be scaled to any size without data loss. The scaling ability is necessary if you want to create presentations, because presentations are always scaled by the beamer. Scaling is also useful for online documents to let the user zoom into diagrams. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Scalable image formats can be \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Scalable Vector Graphics \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (SVG, file extension \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter .svg \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ) \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout SVG|see \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout { \end_layout \end_inset Image formats \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout } \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset , \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Encapsulated PostScript \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (EPS, file extension \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter .eps \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ) \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout EPS|see \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout { \end_layout \end_inset Image formats \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout } \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset , and \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Portable Document Format \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (PDF, file extension \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter .pdf \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ) \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout PDF \end_layout \end_inset . We say it can be, because you can convert any bitmap image format to PDF or EPS and the result won't be scalable. In this cases only a header with the image properties is added to the original image \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout In the case of PDF, the original image is additionally compressed. \end_layout \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Normally one cannot convert a bitmap image into a scalable one, only vice versa. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Grouping of Image Settings \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Images ! Settings grouping \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Each image can define a new group of image settings or join an existing group. Images within such a group share their settings, so adjusting one image of the group automatically also adjusts all other images of the group in the same way. So you can for example change the size for a bunch of images without the need to manually change each of them. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard A new group can be set by entering a name in the \family sans Group \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Name \family default field in the Graphics dialog. Joining an existing group can be done using the context menu of the image by checking the name of the desired group. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Tables \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Tables \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Tables" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can insert a table using either the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "tabular-insert" \end_inset or the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Table \family default . A dialog will appear, asking you for the number of rows and columns. The default table has lines around any cell and the first row appears separated from the rest of the table. This separation appears due to a double line: The cells of the first row have a line below them and the cells of the second row have a line above them. Here's an example table: \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none 1 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout 2 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout 3 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none A \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none B \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \size normal \noun off \color none \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none C \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection The Table dialog \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can alter a table by clicking on it with the right mouse button, which brings up the table dialog. Here you can adjust the settings of the cell and row/column respectively where the cursor is placed currently. Most of the dialog options also work on selections. This means that if you select more cells, columns or rows the action is done on all of your selection. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Additionally to the table dialog, the \family sans table \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset toolbar \family default helps you in setting table properties. It appears when the cursor is inside a table. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In the tab \family sans Table \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Settings \family default of the table dialog you can set the alignment for the current row. If you add a row or column, it will be inserted right beside or below the current cell respectively. The vertical alignment of a column can only be adjusted when a column width is given. A given width will allow the cell to have line breaks and multiple paragraphs of text, see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Table-Cells" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can mark multiple cells of one row/column as a multicolumn/row cell using the check box \family sans Multicolumn \family default or \family sans Multirow \family default . This will merge the cells to \emph on one \emph default cell, spread over more than one column/row. Multicolumn cells are treated as own rows, so that the alignment, width, and border settings affect only the multicolumn cell. Here's an example table with a multicolumn cell in the first row and one in the last row without the upper border: \begin_inset Separator latexpar \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout abc \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout def ghi \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout jkl \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \family roman \series medium \shape up \size normal \emph off \bar no \noun off \color none A \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout B \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout C \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout D \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout 1 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout 2 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout 3 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout 4 \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Adept users can declare special \SpecialChar LaTeX -arguments for the table. They are necessary for special table formatting, like for multirow cells, explained in the tables section of the \emph on Embedded \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Objects \emph default manual. You can also rotate the current cell or the whole table 90 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset degrees counterclockwise. These rotations are not visible in \SpecialChar LyX but in the output. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default Most DVI-viewers are \emph on not \emph default able to display rotations. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \family sans Borders \family default tab allows you to add and delete border lines for the current row/column.

Longtables \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Longtables \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If the table is too long to fit on one page, you can use the option \family sans Use \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset long \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset table \family default in the tab \family sans Longtable \family default of the table dialog to split the table automatically over more pages. Doing this enables some check boxes and you can now define: \end_layout \begin_layout Description \family sans Header \family default : The current row and all rows above, that don't have any special options defined, are defined to be the header rows of all pages of the longtable; except for the first page, if \family sans First \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset header \family default is defined. \end_layout \begin_layout Description \family sans First \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset header \family default : The current row and all rows above, that don't have any special options defined, are defined to be the header rows of the first page of the longtable. \end_layout \begin_layout Description \family sans Footer \family default : The current row and all rows below, that don't have any special options defined, are defined to be the footer rows of all pages of the longtable; except for the last page, if \family sans Last \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset footer \family default is defined. \end_layout \begin_layout Description \family sans Last \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset footer \family default : The current row and all rows below, that don't have any special options defined, are defined to be the footer rows of the last page of the longtable. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Caption: The first row is reset as a single column.

Images and tables can be spread evenly over the pages to avoid whitespace and pages without text. As the floating often destroys the context between the text and the image/table , every float can be referenced in the text. Floats are therefore numbered. Referencing is described in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Cross-References" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To insert a float, use the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Floats \family default . A box with a caption will be inserted into your document. The label will automatically be translated to the document language in the output. After the label you can insert the caption text. \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Floats ! Captions \end_layout \end_inset The image or table is inserted above or below the caption in a separate paragraph within the float. To keep your \SpecialChar LyX -document readable, you can open and close the float box by left-clicking on the box label. A closed float box looks like this: \begin_inset Graphics filename ../clipart/float.png scale 80 \end_inset – a gray button with a red label. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard It is recommended to insert floats as a separate paragraph to avoid possible \SpecialChar LaTeX -errors that can occur when the surrounding text is specially formatted. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Examples \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Figure Floats \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Figure-Floats" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Floats !

It is important to use references to figure floats, rather than using vague references like \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset the figure above \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset , because, as \SpecialChar LaTeX will reposition the floats in the final document, it might not be \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset above \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset at all. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Normally only one image is inserted in a figure float, but sometimes you might want to use two images with separate subcaptions.

To get \begin_inset Formula $x^{2}$ \end_inset , type in a formula \series bold x^2 \begin_inset space \textvisiblespace{} \end_inset \series default . The final \family sans Space \family default puts the cursor back down on the base line of the expression.

Spaces \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You may want to create spaces that differ from the standard spacing that \SpecialChar LaTeX provides. To do this, press \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "command-alternatives math-space ; space-insert protected" \end_inset or use the \family sans Math \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Panel \family default button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "math-insert \\space" \end_inset . This generates a small space, and shows a small marker on the screen. For example, the sequence \series bold a Ctrl+Space b \series default : \begin_inset Formula $a\,b$ \end_inset appears in \SpecialChar LyX as \begin_inset Graphics filename ../clipart/SpaceMarker.png \end_inset . You can change the space to different sizes when you set the cursor behind the space marker and enter space again several times. With every space enter the size will be changed. Some markers for the space size appear red in \SpecialChar LyX , because they are negative spaces. Here are two examples: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold a Ctrl+Space b \series default and 3× \family sans Space \family default : \begin_inset Formula $a\quad b$ \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold a Ctrl+Space b \series default and 5× \family sans Space \family default : \begin_inset Formula $a\!b$ \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Functions \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Math !

For some purposes, using just the keys \family typewriter []{}()|<> \family default should suffice. But if you want to surround a large structure, like a matrix or a fraction, or if you have several layers of brackets, it is better to use the math toolbar delimiter icon \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "dialog-show mathdelimiter" \end_inset . For example, if you construct the brackets around a matrix in this way: \begin_inset Formula \[ \left[\begin{array}{cc} 1 & 2\\ 3 & 4 \end{array}\right] \] \end_inset it makes it easier to see the layers of parentheses. Below, the expression on the left was entered using the delimiter icon \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "dialog-show mathdelimiter" \end_inset and the expression on the right was entered using the \family typewriter () \family default keys. \begin_inset Formula \[ \frac{1}{\left(1+\left(\frac{1}{1+\left(\frac{1}{1+x}\right)}\right)\right)}\qquad\qquad\frac{1}{(1+(\frac{1}{1+(\frac{1}{1+x})}))} \] \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you use the delimiter icon, the parentheses, and other brackets from that menu will automatically re-size to accommodate the size of what is inside. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To construct brackets click on the button for the bracket you want on the left side and right side. If you use the option \family sans Keep \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset matched \family default , the selected bracket type will be used for the left and the right side.

Every character in this box will be printed in this typeface. Pressing \family sans Space \family default within the box will set the cursor outside, so that you have to use a protected space when you need a space in the box. Here is an example where \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset N \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset in \family sans Blackboard \family default denotes the set of numbers: \begin_inset Formula \[ f(x)=\sqrt{x}\:;\:x\in\mathbb{N} \] \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The typefaces are nestable, which can cause confusion. You can, for example, put a character in \family sans Fraktur \family default in a box for \family sans Typewriter \family default : \begin_inset Formula $\mathtt{abc\mathfrak{d}e}$ \end_inset \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset So it is better not to use this feature. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The typefaces have no effect on Greek letters: \begin_inset Formula $\mathfrak{abc\delta e}$ \end_inset \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset You can only print them emboldened using the command \series bold \backslash boldsymbol \series default , which works like the other typeface commands: \begin_inset Formula $\alpha\beta\gamma\boldsymbol{\alpha\beta\gamma}$ \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash boldsymbol \series default works for all symbols, letters, and numbers. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard A number of other font options are available as well, in the menu \family sans Edit\SpecialChar menuseparator Math\SpecialChar menuseparator Text \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Style \family default . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Math Text \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Math !

Font sizes \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There are four font styles (relative sizes) used in math-mode, which are automatically chosen in most situations. These are called \family sans textstyle \family default , \family sans displaystyle \family default , \family sans scriptstyle \family default , and \family sans scriptscriptstyle \family default . For most characters, \family sans textstyle \family default and \family sans displaystyle \family default are actually the same size, but fractions, superscripts and subscripts, and certain other structures, are set larger in \family sans displaystyle \family default . Except for some operators, which resize themselves to accommodate various situations, all text will be set in the styles that \SpecialChar LaTeX thinks are appropriate. These choices can be overridden by using the math panel button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "math-insert \\style" \end_inset . A box for the size will be created in which you can insert the math structure. For example, you can set \begin_inset Formula $\frac{1}{2}$ \end_inset , which is normally in \family sans textstyle \family default , larger in \family sans displaystyle \family default : \begin_inset Formula ${\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}}$ \end_inset . The four styles are used in the following example: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Formula $displaystyle$ \end_inset , \begin_inset Formula ${\textstyle textstyle}$ \end_inset , \begin_inset Formula ${\scriptstyle scriptstyle}$ \end_inset , \begin_inset Formula ${\scriptscriptstyle scriptscriptstyle}$ \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard All these math-mode font sizes are relative so that if the whole math inset is set in a particular size with the menu \family sans Edit\SpecialChar menuseparator Text \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Style \family default , all sizes in the formula will be adjusted relative to this size. Similarly, if the base font size of the document is changed, all fonts will be adjusted to correspond. As an example here is a formula in the font size \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset largest \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset : \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \size largest \begin_inset Formula $\mathrm{e}=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n!}$ \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Section AMS-\SpecialChar LaTeX \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english AMS math \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Math !

We refer you to the AMS-documentation, \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "AMS" \end_inset , for an explanation of these formula types. \end_layout \begin_layout Chapter More Tools \end_layout \begin_layout Section Cross-References \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Cross references \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Cross-References" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard One of \SpecialChar LyX 's strengths is cross-references. You can reference every section, float, footnote, formula, and list in the document. To reference a document part, you have to insert a label into it. The label is used as an anchor and a name for the reference. We want for example to refer to the second item of the following list: \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate First item \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "enu:Second-item" \end_inset Second item \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Third item \end_layout \begin_layout Standard First we insert a label into the second item with the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Label \family default or by pressing the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "label-insert" \end_inset . A gray label box like this: \begin_inset Graphics filename ../clipart/label.png scale 85 \end_inset is inserted and the label window pops up asking for the label text. \SpecialChar LyX offers as text the first words of the item with a prefix, in our case the text \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family sans enu:Second-item \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . The prefix \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family sans enu: \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset stands for \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset enumerate \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . The prefix depends on the document part where the label is inserted; for example, if you insert a label into a section heading, the suggested prefix will be \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family sans sec: \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To reference the item, we refer to its label using the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Cross-Reference \family default or the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "dialog-show-new-inset ref" \end_inset . A gray cross-reference box like this: \begin_inset Graphics filename ../clipart/reference.png scale 85 \end_inset is inserted and the cross-reference window appears showing all the labels in the document. We can now sort the labels alphabetically and then choose the entry \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family sans enu:Second-item \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . At the position of the cross-reference box the item number will appear in the output. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard As an alternative to \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Cross-Reference \family default , you can right-click on a label and in the popup menu select \family sans Copy as Reference \family default . The cross-reference to this label is now in the clipboard and can be pasted to the actual cursor position via the menu \family sans Edit\SpecialChar menuseparator Paste \family default (shortcut \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paste" \end_inset ). \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Here is our cross-reference: Item \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "enu:Second-item" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard It is recommended to use a protected space \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout described in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Protected-Space" \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset between the cross-reference name and the cross-reference to avoid ugly line breaks between them. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There are six formats of cross-references: \end_layout \begin_layout Description : prints the number, this is the default: \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "fig:Two-distorted-images" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Description (): prints the number within two parentheses, this is the style normally used to reference formulas, especially when the reference name \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Equation \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset is omitted: \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand eqref reference "eq:tanhExp" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Description : prints the page number: Page \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand pageref reference "fig:Two-distorted-images" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Description on \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset page \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset : prints the text “on page” and the page number: \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand vpageref reference "fig:Two-distorted-images" \end_inset \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset If the label is on the same page, it prints “on this page”; if the label is on a facing page in a two-sided document, it prints “on the facing page”; if it is on the previous page which is not a facing page, it prints “on the previous page”; if it is on the next page which is not a facing page, it prints “on the next page”. The wording of the printed text also depends on the used document class. \end_layout \begin_layout Description \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset on \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset page \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset : prints the number, the text “on page” and the page number: \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand vref reference "fig:Two-distorted-images" \end_inset \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset If the label is on the same page, this format behaves like \family sans \series bold \family default \series default ; otherwise it behaves like \family sans \series bold on \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset page \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \family default \series default . \end_layout \begin_layout Description Formatted \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset reference: prints a self defined cross-reference format. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \begin_inset Note Greyedout status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default This feature is only available when you have the \SpecialChar LaTeX -package \series bold prettyref \series default or \series bold refstyle \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! prettyref \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! refstyle \end_layout \end_inset installed. \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset You can select which \SpecialChar LaTeX -package should be used for this feature by setting the option \family sans Use refstyle (not prettyref) for cross-references \family default in the menu \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator Document Class \family default . The package \series bold refstyle \series default is the default and preferred because \series bold prettyref \series default supports only English documents. The format is specified by using the command \series bold \backslash newrefformat \series default (prettyref) or \series bold \backslash newref \series default (refstyle) in the \SpecialChar LaTeX preamble of the document. For example redefining all references to figures (which have the label shortcut \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family sans fig \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ) can be done with this command \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \series bold \backslash newref{fig}{refcmd={Image on page \backslash pageref{#1}}} \series default \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset For more information about the format, have a look at the package documentations , \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "prettyref,refstyle" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Description Textual \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset reference: prints the caption or the name of the reference: \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand nameref reference "fig:Two-distorted-images" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The number and current page of the referenced document part in the output is automatically calculated by \SpecialChar LaTeX . The varieties are adjusted in the field \family sans Format \family default of the cross-reference window, that appears when you click on the cross-referen ce. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can only use the style \family sans \family default to reference numbered document parts, while the reference style \family sans \family default is always possible. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you want to reference a section, put the label in the section heading; for floats put the label in the caption; for footnotes put the label in it. Referencing formulas is explained in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Formula-Numbering-and" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Right-clicking on a cross-reference opens a context menu. The entry \family sans Go \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset to \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Label \family default sets the cursor before the referenced label. This entry will be renamed in the context menu of the label to \family sans Go \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Back \family default so that you can use it to set the cursor back to the cross-reference. You can also go back with the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "bookmark-goto 0" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can change labels at any time. References to the changed label will automatically be updated so that you do not need to think about this. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If a cross-reference refers to a non-existent label, you will see in \SpecialChar LyX “BROKEN” in the cross-reference label and two question marks in the output instead of the reference. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard References are described in detail in the section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Referencing Floats \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset of the \emph on Embedded \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Objects \emph default manual. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Table of Contents and other Listings \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Table of contents \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Outline \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:toc" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Table of Contents \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Table-of-Contents" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The Table of Contents (TOC) is inserted with the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator List/TOC\SpecialChar menuseparator Table \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset of \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Contents \family default . It is displayed in \SpecialChar LyX as a gray box. If you click on it, the \family sans Outline \family default window appears, showing you the TOC entries as outline, which allows you to move and rearrange sections in your documents. So this operation is an alternative to the menu \family sans View\SpecialChar menuseparator Outline \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Pane \family default that is described in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:The-Outliner" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The TOC in the document output lists every numbered section automatically. If you have declared a short title for a section heading, as described in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Short-Titles" \end_inset , it will be used in the TOC instead of the section heading. Section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Numbering-depth" \end_inset describes how the level is adjusted that defines which section types are listed in the TOC. Unnumbered sections are not listed in the TOC. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection List of Figures, Tables, Listings and Algorithms \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:List-of-Figures" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Table, figure, listings and algorithm lists are very much like the table of contents.

The appearing dialog has two fields: \family sans Target \family default and \family sans Name \family default . The name is the printed text for the hyperlink. The hyperlink type can be a weblink like this: \begin_inset CommandInset href LatexCommand href name "LyX's homepage" target "http://www.lyx.org" \end_inset , an Email address like this: \begin_inset CommandInset href LatexCommand href name "lyx-docs mailing list" target "lyx-docs@lists.lyx.org?subject=LyX's documentation" type "mailto:" \end_inset , or a link to a file. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can start applications via a hyperlink when you insert a weblink by adding the prefix \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family sans run: \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset to the link target. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Hyperlinks will automatically be hyphenated if necessary in the PDF output, and become clickable in the DVI and PDF-output. To set the format of the link text, highlight the hyperlink inset and use the text style dialog. This is for example a hyperlink with bold sans serif text: \family sans \series bold \begin_inset CommandInset href LatexCommand href name "LyX's homepage" target "http://www.lyx.org" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The link text color can be changed, when the option \family sans Color links \family default is set in the PDF Properties dialog (menu \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator PDF Properties \family default ).

This menu sets the document from the current cursor position to the end as the appendix part of the book. This part is marked with a red borderline. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Every chapter (or section) within the appendix part is treated as an appendix, numbered with a capital Latin letter. The appendix subsections are numbered with this letter followed by a dot and the subsection number. All appendix sections can be referenced as if they were normal sections, here two examples: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Appendix \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "chap:Credits" \end_inset ; Appendix \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Export" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Section Bibliography \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Bibliography \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Bibliography" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There are two ways of generating the bibliography in a \SpecialChar LyX -document. You can include a bibliography database, \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Known under the name \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Bib\SpecialChar TeX database \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . \end_layout \end_inset which is explained in the next subsection, or you can insert the bibliography manually, using the paragraph environment \family sans Bibliography \family default , which was described in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Biblio_environment" \end_inset . If you want anything other than the numerical citations that are used in this document, like author-year citations, then you must \emph on \emph default use a bibliography database. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection The Bibliography Environment \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Within the \family sans Bibliography \family default environment, every paragraph begins with a gray bibliography box labeled with a number. If you click on it, you will get a dialog in which you can set a \family sans Key \family default and a \family sans Label \family default . The key is the symbolic name by which you will refer to this bibliography entry. For example, our second entry in the bibliography is a book about \SpecialChar LaTeX and we used \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset latexcompanion \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset , a short form of its title, as the key. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can cross-reference a bibliography entry using the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Citation \family default or the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "dialog-show-new-inset citation" \end_inset . A citation reference box is inserted and a citation window will appear containing the available citations. Select one or more keys from the list and \family sans Add \family default them. Then press \family sans OK \family default . The citation reference box will be labeled with the referenced key(s). If you click on the box, the citation window will appear and you can change the reference. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Citation references appear in the output as the number of the bibliography entry with surrounding brackets. If you set a \family sans Label \family default for the entry, the label will appear instead of the number. Here are two examples; the first without a label, the second with the label \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Credits \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset : \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Have a look at the \family sans \SpecialChar LaTeX Companion Second Edition \family default : \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "latexcompanion" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \SpecialChar LyX -Team members are listed in the Credits: \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "lyxcredit" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To align all entries in the bibliography environment you can set a longest label via the menu \family sans Edit\SpecialChar menuseparator Paragraph \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Settings \family default (toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "layout-paragraph" \end_inset ). All entries are then indented in the output by the width of the given label. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Bibliography databases (Bib\SpecialChar TeX ) \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Bibliography !

Most of the database programs mentioned below allow you to store annotations and reviews along with bibliographical information. \end_layout \end_inset It also makes it very easy to have a uniform layout for all bibliography entries. You can collect the bibliography of all relevant books and articles of your working field in a database. This database can be used for different documents, and by default only the entries cited in a particular document will appear in the bibliography list for that document. This relieves you of the need to keep track of which articles and books you have cited. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The database is a text file with the file extension \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family sans .bib \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset , containing the bibliography in a special format. The format is explained in \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "BibTeX-2" \end_inset and in the \SpecialChar LaTeX books ( \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "Mittelbach,Kopka,Lamport" \end_inset ). The file can be created using any text editor, but normally one uses a special program to create and edit the entries in the database.

A gray box will be inserted and a window appears. In this window you can add one or more databases and select a \family sans style \family default file. The option \family sans Add bibliography to TOC \family default adds a table of contents entry for the bibliography. In the \family sans Content \family default drop box you can select whether to include all the entries in the database in the document or just the cited references. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The style file is a text file with the file extension \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family sans .bst \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset that controls how the bibliography entries will appear. Your \SpecialChar LaTeX distribution should provide several of these, and many publishers provide their own style files, so that you don't have to take care of the layout. It is of course possible to write your own style file, but this is something for experts. \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout For information on how this is done, have a look at \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset href LatexCommand href target "http://mirrors.ctan.org/biblio/bibtex/contrib/doc/btxhak.pdf" \end_inset . \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Inserting a citation reference works as described in the previous section. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To generate the bibliography from a database, \SpecialChar LyX uses the program Bib\SpecialChar TeX . You can choose which of its variants should be used by \SpecialChar LyX as the \family sans Processor \family default either in \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator Bibliography \family default or in \family sans Tools\SpecialChar menuseparator Preferences\SpecialChar menuseparator Output\SpecialChar menuseparator LaTeX \family default . The following variants are possible: \end_layout \begin_layout Description biber provides full Unicode support, unlimited memory, but does not work with other bibliography packages (e. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space \space{} \end_inset \series bold natbib \series default ), only with the package \series bold biblatex \series default ; recommended for multilingual texts and for languages that don't use Latin letters \end_layout \begin_layout Description bibtex the standard; does not allow special characters in bibliography entries that are not possible to encode in a 7-bit encoding, limited memory, works with all bibliography packages, except \series bold biblatex \end_layout \begin_layout Description bibtex8 allows all characters that are possible to encode in an 8-bit encoding, larger memory than \family sans bibtex \family default , works with all bibliography packages \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Bib\SpecialChar TeX can be controlled with options that you can add below the specification of the variants. Before adding options, it is strongly recommended that you read the manual of \family sans Bib\SpecialChar TeX \family default \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "BibTeX" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard When you select the option \family sans Sectioned bibliography \family default in the \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator Bibliography \family default dialog, it is possible to have multiple and sectioned bibliographies. This and other options are explained in detail in section \emph on Customizing Bibliographies \emph default \emph on with Bib\SpecialChar TeX \emph default of the \emph on Additional Features \emph default manual. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard We use two bibliographies in this document to show the difference between the two methods of creating them. As you can see, the bibliography that is created from a database lists only the database entries that are referenced in the document. We used the style file \family sans alphadin.bst \family default to get the complicated German reference key scheme in the bibliography. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Citation Format \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Bibliography ! Citation format \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In the citation reference dialog you can set a special citation format. For this feature you need to enable the option \family sans Natbib \family default in the \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings \family default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Document ! Settings \end_layout \end_inset dialog under \family sans Bibliography \family default . Setting a citation style for a reference will overwrite the default. For the global citation format use the Bib\SpecialChar TeX style files as explained in the previous section. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can also set text to appear before or after a citation reference, in the citation reference window. Here is an example where the text \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Chapter \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 3 \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset appears after the reference: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Have a look at \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite after "Chapter 3" key "latexcompanion" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Section Index \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Index generation \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Index" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard An index entry is created if you use the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Index \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Entry \family default or the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "index-insert" \end_inset . A box is inserted containing the text that appears in the index.

A light blue box labeled \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family sans Index \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset will show the place where the index is printed in the output. The index list box is not clickable like other \SpecialChar LyX -boxes. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard We give a short overview of the index commands in the next subsections. For a detailed description of \SpecialChar LaTeX 's index mechanism, have a look at one of the \SpecialChar LaTeX books \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "latexcompanion,latexguide,latexbook" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Grouping Index Entries \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Index ! Grouping \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Index entries are often grouped to offer the reader a fast search in the index. We want to group for example the index entries for itemized and enumerated lists under the entry \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Lists \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . First we create the entry \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Lists \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Lists" \end_inset . In the text field for the itemized list index entry in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Itemize" \end_inset , we insert the command \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold Lists ! Itemize \end_layout \begin_layout Standard and the command \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold Lists ! Enumerate \end_layout \begin_layout Standard for the enumerated list in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Enumerate" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The exclamation mark \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset ! \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset marks the grouping levels. You can have three levels; every index level is indented a bit more. An index entry for the higher levels is not required. If we don't have an index entry for \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Lists \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset , it will be printed anyway, but without a page number. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Page Ranges \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Index ! Page ranges \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Normally an index entry will appear with the page number of the indexed section. But sometimes you want to index more pages under the same entry. For example, if we want to index the paragraph environments, we create an index entry in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Paragraph-Environments" \end_inset with the command \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold Paragraph environments|( \end_layout \begin_layout Standard and another entry at the end of section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:LyX-Code" \end_inset with the command \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold Paragraph environments|) \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The commands \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \series bold |( \series default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset and \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \series bold |) \series default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset respectively start and end the index range. You can also add the same index entry at different places in the document. They appear in the output under one entry with a comma separated list of the pages of the indexed document parts. An example is the index entry \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Document ! Settings \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Cross referencing \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Index ! Cross referencing \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard It is also possible to refer to another index entry. We referred for example in the index entry \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset GIF \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Image-Formats" \end_inset ) to the index entry \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Image formats \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset in the same section using the entry \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold GIF|see{Image formats} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard where the braces have to be inserted as \SpecialChar TeX Code. The text within the braces is the referenced entry. The reference will appear in the output without a page number. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Index Entry Order \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Index ! Entry order \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you use accented characters in the index entry the entries might not follow the rules for the index order. The index entries are sorted alphabetically but \SpecialChar LaTeX \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout The index generating is done in the background by an extra program, see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Index-Program" \end_inset . \end_layout \end_inset does not know how to sort accents in different languages. We have created as an example the three dummy index entries \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset maison \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset , \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset maïs \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset , and \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset maître \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Dummy entries ! maïs \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Dummy entries ! maître \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Dummy entries ! maïs@maison \end_layout \end_inset They will be sorted in the order maïs, maître, maison but we want the order maïs, maison, maître. To achieve this, we use the command \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold previous entry@current entry \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In our case we want to have \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset maison \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset after \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset maïs \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset and write therefore for the index entry of maison: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold maïs@maison \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The previous entry need not be a real existing entry. You can also use another word to tell \SpecialChar LaTeX the entry order. See the next subsection for an example. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace bigskip \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In some cases the index entry order is not correct when you are using the program \family sans makeindex \family default to generate the index (see sec. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Index-Program" \end_inset ). \family sans makeindex \family default would for example print the index entry for the \SpecialChar LaTeX -package aeguill in sec. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Document-Font" \end_inset after the index entries of the other \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages although all these index commands start with \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \series bold \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! \series default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . The reason is that the index entry for aeguill is in a footnote. To fix this \family sans makeindex \family default bug, add these commands to the preamble of your document: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash let \backslash OrgIndex \backslash index \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash renewcommand*{ \backslash index}[1]{ \backslash OrgIndex{#1}} \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Index Entry Layout \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Index !

We can write for example \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold italic page number:|textit \end_layout \begin_layout Standard to get the page number in italic. \begin_inset Index idx status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Dummy entries ! italic page number:|textit \end_layout \end_inset Normally all \SpecialChar LaTeX -commands begin with a backslash, but in this special case \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \series bold |command \series default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset means \series bold \backslash command{page \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset number} \series default . Have a look at section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:LaTeX-Syntax" \end_inset to learn more about the \SpecialChar LaTeX -syntax. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default Formatting single index entries only works when you use the program \family sans makeindex \family default to generate the index, see sec. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Index-Program" \end_inset . If you use \family sans xindy \family default , this will not work for anything other than bold or italic text. This is because \family sans xindy \family default requires you to define semantic elements before they can be used, see \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite after "p. 678 ff." key "latexcompanion" \end_inset for details. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In general, we encourage you to not format page numbers directly as shown above. Instead, you should define a macro in the preamble and use that. Maybe you want all page references italic that refer to a definition of the indexed term, so that users can easily find definitions. If so, put the following in the preamble \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash newcommand{ \backslash IndexDef}[1]{ \backslash textit{#1}} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard and write \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold my entry|IndexDef \end_layout \begin_layout Standard in the index entry. \begin_inset Index idx status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Dummy entries ! my entry|IndexDef \end_layout \end_inset The advantage is that, if you change your mind later or if your publisher insists that definitions must not be italic but bold, you just need to change the macro in the preamble, not every single index entry. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can also change the layout for the whole index. For example, we marked the index list box of this document as bold to get a bold font for all index entries. For more advanced tasks you have to set up a so-called \emph on Index Style File \emph default , see the \family sans makeindex \family default or \family sans xindy \family default documentation for details, \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "makeindex,xindy" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Index Program \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Index ! Program \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:Index-Program" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If the index generation program \family sans xindy \family default is installed, \SpecialChar LyX uses it for index generation; otherwise the program \family sans makeindex \family default , the program that is part of every \SpecialChar LaTeX distribution, is used. \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \family sans Makeindex \family default is very old, no longer under development and has many pitfalls, notably that it was developed with only the English language in mind. So it fails to sort anything other than a monolingual English text correctly. We have shown above how to fix this sorting. However, if you are writing in another than the English language, consider to use \family sans xindy \family default . \end_layout \end_inset Both programs can be controlled by options that can be set in \SpecialChar LyX 's preferences dialog, see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:LaTeX-settings" \end_inset . The available options are listed and explained in \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "makeindex-man,xindy" \end_inset . In this dialog, you can also specify an alternative program to generate the index. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you need specific options or an alternative index program only for a given document, you can define the program and\SpecialChar breakableslash or the options in \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator Indexes \family default . This is especially useful if you need to pass language-specific options to the index program or if you need a specific layout style. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Multiple Indexes \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In many fields it is common to have more than one index. For instance, you might need to set up a separate \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Index of Names \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset next to the standard index. \SpecialChar LaTeX does not provide this possibility out of the box, but there are packages that add this feature. \SpecialChar LyX uses the \series bold splitidx \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! splitidx \end_layout \end_inset package to generate multiple indexes. The package is included in all recent \SpecialChar LaTeX distributions. \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout If yours does not ship it, consult the \SpecialChar TeX catalogue, \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "TeXCatalogue" \end_inset . Note that the package does not only consist of a \SpecialChar LaTeX style, but it also includes specific preprocessor programs that need to be installed as well. Please consult the package's manual for details. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To set up \SpecialChar LyX for the use of multiple indexes, go to \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator Indexes \family default and select the option \family sans Use multiple Indexes \family default . Note that the list \family sans Available Indexes \family default already contains the standard index \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Index \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . To add further indexes, add the name of the index (in the form that should also appear as a heading) to the \family sans New \family default input field and press the \family sans Add \family default button. The new index now also appears in the list. If you like, you can attribute an alternative \SpecialChar LyX label color to the new index. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Once the document changes have been applied, you can find the new index list in \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator List/TOC \family default and the \family sans Insert \family default menu has a separate entry for each of the defined indexes. The workflow is basically the same as for the default index, but there are additional features: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize If you want to change the attribution of a specific index entry, right-clicking on the entry's label will open a dialog where you can do that. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize By right-clicking on an index, you can change its type. Furthermore, you can specify an index to be a \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Subindex. \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset If you do that, the heading of that list will be decreased by one level. For example, if you use a book class, where the standard index heading is defined as a chapter, subindexes will be defined as sections and can thus be nested to the non-subindexes. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Nomenclature/Glossary \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Nomenclature \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Glossary|see \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout { \end_layout \end_inset Nomenclature \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout } \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Nomenclature" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Sometimes you need to provide a list of technical terms or symbols that are mentioned in your document with a brief explanation of them – a so called nomenclature or glossary. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To be able to create nomenclatures or glossaries, you need the \SpecialChar LaTeX package \series bold nomencl \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! nomencl \end_layout \end_inset installed. You find it in the \SpecialChar TeX catalogue, \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "TeXCatalogue" \end_inset or in the package manager of your \SpecialChar LaTeX -system. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard A nomenclature entry is created if you place the cursor after a symbol entry and then use the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator \family default N \family sans omenclature \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Entry \family default or the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "nomencl-insert" \end_inset .

If not, add these lines to your \SpecialChar LaTeX preamble: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \noindent \series bold \backslash renewcommand{ \backslash eqdeclaration}[1]{, see equation \backslash nobreakspace(#1)} \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \backslash renewcommand{ \backslash pagedeclaration}[1]{, page \backslash nobreakspace{}#1} \series default \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset and replace \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset see equation \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset and \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset page \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset by their translation. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Printing the Nomenclature \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Nomenclature ! Printing \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To print the nomenclature, use the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Lists/TOC\SpecialChar menuseparator Nomenclature \family default . A box labeled \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family sans Nomenclature \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset will show the place where the nomenclature is printed in the output. By right-clicking on it, the amount of space for symbols can be altered. You can choose between these settings: \end_layout \begin_layout Description Default a space of 1 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset cm is used \end_layout \begin_layout Description Longest \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset label \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset width the width of the widest symbol of all nomenclature entries is used \end_layout \begin_layout Description Custom custom space \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In the printed output the title of the nomenclature appears as \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Nomenclature \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . If you are not happy with the name, you can change it by redefining the command \series bold \backslash nomname \series default in the preamble. For example, in order to change the name to \emph on List of Symbols \emph default , add the following line to the preamble: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash renewcommand{ \backslash nomname}{List of Symbols} \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Nomenclature Program \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Nomenclature !

Branches \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Branches" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Sometimes it is useful to hide some document parts in the output. For example a teacher who is setting an exam obviously doesn't want the pupils to see the answers, but having questions and answers in the same document will make the life of the markers of that exam much easier. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard For these cases \SpecialChar LyX allows you to put text into branches. The text will then only appear in the output when its branch is activated. To create a branch, either select the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Branch\SpecialChar menuseparator Insert New Branch \family default (if you just want to specify a new branch) or go in the \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings \family default dialog to \family sans Branches \family default , where you can specify and change the name of the branch, its activation state (whether the content of the branch is shown in the output or not), its background color inside \SpecialChar LyX and whether the name of the branch should be appended to the document file name on export if the branch is active (see below for an example). Furthermore, the dialog lets you merge two branches (just rename one branch to the name of the other) and to add \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset unknown branches \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (i. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset e. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset branches that were added to the document via copy and paste from other documents , without having been defined) to the document's branch list. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Text that should be in a branch is set into branch inset boxes. These boxes are inserted via the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Branch \family default where you can choose a branch. You can later change the activation state of the branch by right-clicking on them. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Here is an example, where only the question text appears, the answer branch is deactivated and therefore does not appear in the output: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Branch Question status open \begin_layout Standard \lang english Question: Who was the first physics Nobel prize winner? \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Branch Answer status collapsed \begin_layout Standard \lang english Answer: Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you activate \family sans Filename Suffix \family default in \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator Branches \family default , the name of the active branches will be appended to the file name at export. Consider for example a file \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Exam.lyx \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset which has the above branches. If \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Filename Suffix \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset is active, the PDF export file would be called \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Exam.pdf \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset if both the \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Question \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset and \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Answer \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset branch were inactive, \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Exam-Question.pdf \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset if only the \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Question \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset branch was active, likewise \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Exam-Answer.pdf \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset if only the \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Answer \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset branch was active, and \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Exam-Question-Answer.pdf \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset if both branches were active. This helps you to export different versions of your document easily. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace bigskip \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To use conditional output inside places where you cannot insert branch insets, like inside equations, you can code special \SpecialChar LaTeX definitions for each branch. For example you can define for the question branch \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout For an introduction to the \SpecialChar LaTeX -syntax, see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:LaTeX-Syntax" \end_inset . \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash newcommand{ \backslash question}[1]{#1} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash newcommand{ \backslash answer}[1]{} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard and for the answer branch \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash newcommand{ \backslash question}[1]{} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash newcommand{ \backslash answer}[1]{#1} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Branch Question status open \begin_layout Standard \lang english \begin_inset ERT status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash newcommand{ \backslash question}[1]{#1} \end_layout \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash newcommand{ \backslash answer}[1]{} \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Branch Answer status collapsed \begin_layout Standard \lang english \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash newcommand{ \backslash question}[1]{} \end_layout \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash newcommand{ \backslash answer}[1]{#1} \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Now it is possible to use the \series bold \backslash question{\SpecialChar ldots } \series default and \series bold \backslash answer{\SpecialChar ldots } \series default commands to obtain conditional output. Here is an example formula where only the \series bold \backslash question \series default part appears: \begin_inset Formula \[ x^{2}-2x-2\Rightarrow\question{x_{1}}\answer{x_{2}}=1\question{+\sqrt{3}}\answer{-\sqrt{3}}. \] \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Inside math, the same effect can be achieved using math macros, see the \emph on Math \emph default manual. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Each type of branch is allowed to have its specific style defined in layout files (e. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space \space{} \end_inset any branch inset can be automatically wrapped by your own \SpecialChar LaTeX commands.). For this advanced usage, see the \emph on Customization \emph default manual, section \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Flex insets and InsetLayout \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ). \end_layout \begin_layout Section PDF Properties \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:PDF-Properties" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english PDF properties \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator PDF Properties \family default dialog allows you to set up special options for the PDF output of your document. All these options are provided by the \SpecialChar LaTeX -package \series bold hyperref \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! hyperref \end_layout \end_inset which will link all cross-references in the DVI- and PDF-output. This means that the reader of your document will be able to click on a table of contents entry or on a reference to move to the cross-referenced part of the document. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The header information in the dialog tab \family sans General \family default is saved together with the PDF as file properties. Many programs are able to extract this information, for example, automatically to recognize who the author is and what the PDF is about. This is very useful to sort, classify or use PDFs for bibliography issues. When the option \family sans Automatically \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset fill \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset header \family default is set, \SpecialChar LyX tries to extract the header information from your document title and author entries. The option \family sans Load \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset in \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset fullscreen \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset mode \family default will open the PDF in fullscreen mode, which is useful for presentations. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can specify in the dialog tab \family sans Hyperlinks \family default how the links will look and if links for bibliographical backreferences are created. The \family sans Break \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset links \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset over \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset lines \family default option allows long links to be split; \family sans No \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset frames \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset around \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset links \family default and \family sans Color \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset links \family default both turn off the default behavior of enclosing all links in frames; \family sans Color \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset links \family default colors the different links. The default colors are: \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring 00.00.0000 \color magenta magenta \color inherit for hyperlinks and URLs \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring 00.00.0000 \color red red \color inherit for links \end_layout \begin_layout Labeling \labelwidthstring 00.00.0000 \color green green \color inherit for citations \end_layout \begin_layout Standard but you can change these in the field \family sans Additional options \family default . For example, in this document they were changed with the additional options: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold linkcolor=black, citecolor=black, urlcolor=blue, filecolor=blue \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If the option \family sans Backreferences \family default is set, the hyperlinks will appear in the bibliography after the different entries, showing, depending on the option selected, the number of the section, slide or page where the entry is referenced. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In the dialog tab \family sans Bookmarks \family default you can specify if PDF-bookmarks should be created for every section of your document to make it easier for readers to navigate through the document. You can decide if the bookmarks should be numbered like your document sections or not. With the \family sans Open bookmarks \family default \family sans Level \family default you can specify what sectioning level should be displayed in the bookmarks when opening the PDF. For example level \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 2 will display all sections and subsections, while level \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 1 will only display the sections. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard PDF properties are also used in this document. When you look in its document settings, you can see that some additional \series bold hyperref \series default options are used. For an explanation of all them we refer you to the hyperref manual \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "hyperref" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Section \SpecialChar TeX Code and the \SpecialChar LaTeX Syntax \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:TeX-Code" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection \SpecialChar TeX Code Boxes \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar TeX Code \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:TeX-Code-Boxes" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard As \SpecialChar LyX uses \SpecialChar LaTeX in the background, it supports many \SpecialChar LaTeX commands and constructs, but not all. \SpecialChar LaTeX contains hundreds of packages that provide different commands. All the time packages are being updated and new ones added. This has the advantage that you can typeset nearly everything as there is a \SpecialChar LaTeX -package for every problem, though \SpecialChar LyX cannot support all packages and their commands. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard But don't worry, you can use any \SpecialChar LaTeX -command directly in \SpecialChar LyX inside the \SpecialChar TeX Code box. A \SpecialChar TeX Code box is created by the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator TeX \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Code \family default or by the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "ert-insert" \end_inset (shortcut \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "ert-insert" \end_inset ). The box can be opened by left-clicking and closed by right-clicking on it and selecting \family sans Close Inset \family default . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can insert complete or incomplete commands as \SpecialChar TeX Code. Incomplete means that the command argument can be Standard \SpecialChar LyX text. For example, if you want to draw a frame around a word and are therefore using the \SpecialChar LaTeX -command \series bold \backslash fbox \series default , you can write the command part \series bold \backslash fbox{ \series default in a \SpecialChar TeX Code box before the word and the closing brace \series bold } \series default in a second \SpecialChar TeX Code box behind the word. The word between the two \SpecialChar TeX Code boxes is then the argument as it is in the following example: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Graphics filename ../clipart/ERT.png scale 89 \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard gives \end_layout \begin_layout Standard This is a line with a \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash fbox{ \end_layout \end_inset framed \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout } \end_layout \end_inset word. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default At the end of \SpecialChar LaTeX -commands without parameters, you have to insert a space to let \SpecialChar LaTeX know that the command is finished. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection A Short Introduction to the \SpecialChar LaTeX Syntax \begin_inset Argument 1 status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english The \SpecialChar LaTeX Syntax \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX Syntax \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "subsec:LaTeX-Syntax" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard When you write larger documents or books, you will need to know something about the \SpecialChar LaTeX -commands that \SpecialChar LyX uses in the background. Because \SpecialChar LaTeX is based on commands, you can \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset program \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset your text. This has the advantage that the layout of the document can be changed at any time if you know the right commands. For example, imagine you have to write a manual for a product and the deadline is the end of the day. Your boss has just complimented you for your good work but wants to have all caption labels bold. But you have over a hundred figure and table captions with non-bold labels in your manual. Of course it is impossible to change all caption labels manually in one day. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Now \SpecialChar LaTeX comes into play. As mentioned above, for every problem there exists a \SpecialChar LaTeX -package. First you have to find out which and therefore look in the \SpecialChar LaTeX package database, \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "Catalogue" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard As result you find that the package \series bold caption \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! caption \end_layout \end_inset is what you need. To use a package, you have to load it in the document preamble (menu \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings \family default \SpecialChar menuseparator \family sans LaTeX \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Preamble \family default ) with the command \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash usepackage[options]{package name} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard All \SpecialChar LaTeX commands begin with a backslash, the command argument is set within two braces and the options are set within two brackets. Note that not all commands have an argument and options. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In your case the package name is \series bold caption \series default . After a look in the documentation of the package, you know that the option \series bold labelfont=bf \series default will change the font of all caption labels to bold. So you add the command \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash usepackage[labelfont=bf]{caption} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard to the preamble and the problem is solved. \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout For more commands provided by the \series bold caption \series default package, have a look at its documentation, \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "caption" \end_inset . \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Note that some document classes have built-in solutions for well-known problems like your case. For example if you use a \family sans KOMA-Script \family default class, you don't need the package \series bold caption \series default , you can instead write \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash setkomafont{captionlabel}{ \backslash bfseries} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard in the preamble and the problem is solved. So if you plan to write a large document, you should have a look at the documentation of the document class you want to use. ( \series bold \backslash setkomafont \series default is an example of a command with more than one argument.) \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Commands in the preamble affect the whole document, while commands in the text affect only the text after the command or only the text used as command argument. To insert a \SpecialChar LaTeX -command in text, use the \SpecialChar TeX Code box as described in the previous section. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you want to learn more about \SpecialChar LaTeX and its syntax, have a look at the \SpecialChar LaTeX -books \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "latexcompanion,latexguide" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Newpage cleardoublepage \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash pagestyle{fancy} \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Note Note status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english switches temporarily to a page style with custom header and footer line \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Left Header \begin_inset Argument 1 status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash rightmark \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Note Note status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english defines the header line as described below \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Center Header \begin_inset Argument 1 status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Right Header \begin_inset Argument 1 status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash leftmark \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Left Footer \begin_inset Argument 1 status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash thepage \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Center Footer \begin_inset Argument 1 status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \family sans \series bold \color red \lang english \SpecialChar LyX 's user guide \end_layout \end_inset Magic code: \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \begin_inset Formula $\Upsilon=\frac{\sqrt[3]{\aleph}}{\spadesuit}$ \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Right Footer \begin_inset Argument 1 status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash Roman{page} \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Section Customized Page Headers and Footers \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Customized-Page-Headers" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Document !

Check what these are before you specify your own customized page headers and footers. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Definition \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To define your header line, add all three header styles. The things you add to the styles appear on odd numbered pages, the things in the optional arguments on even numbered pages. For single-sided documents, the optional arguments will not be used and can be omitted. If you leave a style or its argument empty, nothing appears in the output. Defining the footer line works similarly. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard For the definition, you will need some \SpecialChar LaTeX -commands that are inserted as \SpecialChar TeX code (menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator TeX \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Code \family default ): \end_layout \begin_layout Description \backslash thepage prints the current page number \end_layout \begin_layout Description \backslash Roman{page} prints the current page number with capital roman numerals \end_layout \begin_layout Description \backslash roman{page} prints the current page number with small roman numerals \end_layout \begin_layout Description \backslash leftmark prints the current section number and title. If the document has chapters, it prints the current chapter number and title instead. It is called \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset leftmark \begin_inset Quotes prd \end_inset because it usually goes in a left header. \end_layout \begin_layout Description \backslash rightmark prints the current subsection number and title. If the document has chapters, it prints the current section number and title instead. It is normally used in the right header. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Default header/footer \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The custom header/footer is not empty by default. The default header contains the chapter and section title and the center footer has the page number. In order to remove unwanted entries from the header/footer, include the relevant header/footer style in your document, but leave it blank. So, if you do not want a page number in the footer, include a blank \family sans Center \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Footer \family default style. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Appearance \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The header and footer will appear on normal pages. Some pages are different. The title page has a style of its own, and so does any page that starts a new part or chapter in your book. Such pages will not have the custom headers/footers, but that is normal. There is for example no need to print a header with the chapter name on the chapter page where the chapter heading is in big bold letters anyway. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Header and footer decoration line \end_layout \begin_layout Standard By default, you get a 0.4 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset pt thick line below the header and no footer line.

If it is not already installed, you will find it in the \SpecialChar TeX -catalogue, \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "TeXCatalogue" \end_inset or in the package manager of your \SpecialChar LaTeX -system. You obtain prettier results if you install the program \family typewriter pnmcrop \family default from the \family typewriter netpbm \family default package; for \SpecialChar LyX on Windows this program and also the \SpecialChar LaTeX -package are automatically installed together with \SpecialChar LyX . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Enabling previews \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you would for example like to see in \SpecialChar LyX your math formulas typeset by \SpecialChar LaTeX , activate the option \family sans Display \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Graphics \family default in the \family sans Tools\SpecialChar menuseparator Preferences \family default dialog under \family sans Look \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset and \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset feel\SpecialChar menuseparator Display \family default .

Reopening the document will fix such problems. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Selected document parts \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Besides math there are other cases where you might like to see a preview, for example things that \SpecialChar LyX cannot render like rotated parts or things that are not yet supported by \SpecialChar LyX . To do this, insert a preview inset via the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Preview \family default . Insert or paste the stuff that you want to preview into this inset. The preview will be generated when the cursor is outside the preview inset. If you click on the preview, you can edit the previewed stuff. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard An example: To create rotated boxes, you use the \SpecialChar LaTeX command \series bold \backslash rotatebox \series default which is not yet supported by \SpecialChar LyX . \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold \backslash rotatebox \series default is explained in section \emph on Rotated and Scaled Boxes \emph default of the \emph on Embedded \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Objects \emph default manual. \end_layout \end_inset Instead of the \SpecialChar TeX Code boxes you want to see in \SpecialChar LyX the final rotated boxes, for example to adjust the rotation angle to fit with the surrounding text. Therefore you create a preview inset and copy the text with the rotated boxes into it. Here is the result: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Preview \begin_layout Standard \lang english This is a line \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash rotatebox[origin=r]{-60}{ \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Box Doublebox position "c" hor_pos "c" has_inner_box 0 inner_pos "c" use_parbox 0 use_makebox 0 width "1in" special "width" height "1in" height_special "totalheight" thickness "0.4pt" separation "3pt" shadowsize "4pt" framecolor "black" backgroundcolor "none" status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english with rotated \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout } \end_layout \end_inset framed text \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash rotatebox[origin=lb]{60}{ \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Formula $\int A\,\mathrm{d}x=B$ \end_inset \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout } \end_layout \end_inset and a formula. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Previewing works also for colors. In this example a special framed, colored box was created using the \SpecialChar LaTeX command \series bold \backslash fcolorbox \series default : \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold \backslash fcolorbox \series default is explained in section \emph on Colored Boxes \emph default of the \emph on Embedded \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Objects \emph default manual. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Preview \begin_layout Standard \lang english \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash fboxrule 1mm \backslash fboxsep 1mm \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash fcolorbox{cyan}{magenta}{ \end_layout \end_inset This is text within a colored, framed box. \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout } \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace medskip \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If \SpecialChar LyX does not show a preview, make sure that you enabled previews as described above and also make sure that \SpecialChar TeX Code in the preview inset is valid and that you loaded the \SpecialChar LaTeX packages in your document preamble that are required by the \SpecialChar TeX Code. If \SpecialChar LyX cannot create a preview, you will in most cases also not be able to view your document due to \SpecialChar LaTeX errors. So if you have to use some \SpecialChar TeX Code and don't know if it is correct, the preview inset is a nice method to check it without the need to view the whole document. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection \SpecialChar LaTeX source code \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can preview the \SpecialChar LaTeX source of the whole document or parts of it. Use the menu \family sans View\SpecialChar menuseparator Source \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Pane \family default and a window will be shown where you can see the \SpecialChar LaTeX -source code. The window shows the source of the whole paragraph in which the cursor currently sits. You can also select document parts in \SpecialChar LyX 's main window, then only this selection (when it is more than one paragraph) is shown as source code. To view the whole document as source, enable the corresponding option in the source view window. If you check \family sans Automatic update \family default , you can see the changes as you make them in \SpecialChar LyX ; but note that if you have several documents open, this will slow things down as \SpecialChar LyX updates them all, not just the one which is open at the time. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Advanced Find and Replace \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Advanced-Find-and" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Replace \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Find \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Introduction \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The advanced find and replace feature of \SpecialChar LyX allows for searching of complex, format-sensitive text segments and mathematics contents within \SpecialChar LyX documents. It is an enhancement of the standard (quick) find and replace feature. The key-features are: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Both searching of text and of mathematical formulas is allowed, where the latter is done by entering mathematics in the usual way; not only entire mathematical formulas are found, but also parts occurring within more complex formulas \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Search may be format-insensitive, so that the searched text is found in any context/style (standard text, section headings, notes, and even mathematics ), or it may be format-sensitive, so that, for example, a word entered with a section heading will only be found within section headings \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Search may be restricted to mathematics environments only; this is useful for remangling math notation where one does not want to match any text outside of mathematics environments \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Search may be widened to a specific \emph on scope \emph default , i. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset e. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset a set of files which may be all the children of the document being edited, all the open files, or all the manuals available from the \family sans Help \family default menu \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Replace may optionally preserve capitalization, so that the replaced text capitalization is adapted to the matching text (i. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset e. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset all lowercase, all uppercase, first letter uppercase followed by lowercase) \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Basic usage \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The advanced find and replace feature is activated through the menu \family sans Edit\SpecialChar menuseparator Find & Replace \noun on ( \noun default Advanced \noun on ) \family default \noun default (shortcut \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "dialog-show findreplaceadv" \end_inset ) or the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "dialog-toggle findreplaceadv" \end_inset . This opens the \family sans Advanced Find and Replace \family default dialog. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Searching for text \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Enter into the \family sans Find \family default \SpecialChar LyX mini-editor a simple word, and search for occurrences of it by clicking on the \family sans Find \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Next \family default button at the bottom of the dialog (or just press the \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break" \end_inset key). The entered word is found both in text mode and in math mode, and in emphasized , bold or normal face, and in both in section titles and in standard text. Pressing \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break" \end_inset repeatedly keeps searching forward while pressing \family sans Shift+Return \family default searches backwards. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \family sans Case \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset sensitive \family default option allows matches to occur only with the same case as entered in the \family sans Find \family default editor. The \family sans Whole \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset words \family default option allows matches to occur only at word boundaries. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Searching for mathematics \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Mathematical formulas, such as \begin_inset Formula $x^{2}$ \end_inset or something more complex like \begin_inset Formula $\frac{x^{2}}{1+x^{2}}$ \end_inset , may be searched for by typing them in the \family sans Find \family default editor. When searching for a formula, it is found both when it is alone and when it occurs in sub-formulas and nested parts of sub-formulas. For example the mentioned segments would be found in something like \begin_inset Formula $\frac{x^{2}}{\sqrt{\frac{x^{2}}{1+x^{2}}}}.$ \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Style-aware search \end_layout \begin_layout Standard It is also possible to search for text with specific styles. This is done by switching to the \family sans Settings \family default tab of the dialog and unchecking the \family sans Ignore format \family default option. This way, entering in the \family sans Find \family default editor \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize a normal word and searching for it would not find instances of the word occurring in emphasized or boldface. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize an emphasized or boldface word and searching for it would find the respective instances with the same face only, and within the same text style only. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize a normal word in a section heading, and searching for it, would find occurrences of it only within section headings. Also, if the text to search is given an emphasized or bold face, in addition to a section style, then it is found only when occurring with the same style. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize a displayed formula will only find instances of this formula that are also displayed formulas (and not inline formulas). \end_layout \begin_layout Subsubsection Replace \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The entries made in the \family sans Find \family default editor can be replaced with entries made in the \family sans Replace \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset with \family default editor. In order to find the next occurrence and replace it, click on the \family sans Replace \family default button or alternatively press \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "paragraph-break" \end_inset or \family sans Shift+Return \family default while the cursor is in the \family sans Replace \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset with \family default editor. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can replace with fully-featured formatted \SpecialChar LyX entries. Typical scenarios in which to use this capability might be (just to mention two): \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize replacing occurrences of a word with a customized formatted version of the same word, for example replacing occurrences of a name like \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset func() \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset with its typewriter version \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter func() \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize performing a notation rework of mathematical symbols, for example replacing occurrences of \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \begin_inset Formula $R$ \end_inset \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset with \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \begin_inset Formula $\mathbb{R}$ \end_inset \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (you may want to enable the \family sans Whole \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset words \family default and \family sans Case \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset sensitive \family default options and disable the \family sans Ignore format \family default option in the \family sans Settings \family default tab, in order to avoid replacing all \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset R \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset letters occurring in normal text), or occurrences of \begin_inset Formula $x_{j}^{i}$ \end_inset with \begin_inset Formula $x_{i,\,j}$ \end_inset , or occurrences of \begin_inset Formula $x[k]$ \end_inset with \begin_inset Formula $x_{k}$ \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Advanced usage \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There is a regular expression (regexp) based searching facility. \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout A good explanation of regular expressions is given in this Wikipedia entry: \begin_inset CommandInset href LatexCommand href target "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression" \end_inset . \end_layout \end_inset You can search for a regular expression by inserting a regexp inset into the \family sans Find \family default editor. This is done with the context menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar menuseparator Insert Regular Expression \family default while the cursor is in the \family sans Find \family default editor. Characters entered within regexp insets are matched according to the regular expression matching rules \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Under the constraint that any (sub)expression must match a well-formed \SpecialChar LyX segment, i. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset e. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset when matching \SpecialChar LaTeX code, no segments with unbalanced {} braces are allowed to match expressions. \end_layout \end_inset , while text entered outside regexp insets is matched exactly against the same text in the document. You can cut and paste regexp-mode insets. Examples of using such a feature may be: \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Searching for all fractions with a given denominator: for example, entering in the \family sans Find \family default editor the fraction \begin_inset Formula $\frac{.*}{1+x^{2}}$ \end_inset (where the \begin_inset Formula $.*$ \end_inset on the numerator is the match-everything regular expression) finds all fractions with the given denominator. \end_layout \begin_layout Enumerate Searching for all text with a given style: for example, after unchecking the \family sans Ignore format \family default option from the \family sans Settings \family default tab, entering a \series bold \begin_inset Formula $.*$ \end_inset \series default regular expression and giving it an emphasized or bold face, finds all emphasized or bold face text respectively. Also, by inserting a \begin_inset Formula $.*$ \end_inset regular expression in a bullet or enumerated list or a section heading, you can find all bullet or enumerated lists or section headings. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Finally, references to (sub)expressions in regexp may be used as usual: Enclosing parts of the expression within round braces \begin_inset Formula $()$ \end_inset , and referring back to them through \begin_inset Formula $\backslash1$ \end_inset , \begin_inset Formula $\backslash2$ \end_inset , etc.. For example, try searching with the regexp \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset [[:space:]]([[:alpha:]]+)[[:space:]] \backslash 1[[:space:]] \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset in order to find word repetitions, if there are any. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The usage of back references in the replaced text is not (yet) implemented. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default Back references work both when occurring within the same regexp, and when occurring in multiple different regexps, where the numbering of back-referenced sub-expressions is absolute. That is, \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset Formula $\backslash1$ \end_inset always refers to the first occurrence of \begin_inset Formula $()$ \end_inset in all entered regexps. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Section Spell Checking \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Spellchecking" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Spell checking \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \SpecialChar LyX has a built-in spell checker. The menu \family sans Tools\SpecialChar menuseparator Spellchecker \family default , the \family sans F7 \family default key or the toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "dialog-show spellchecker" \end_inset start the spell checking from either the current cursor position or the beginning of the currently selected text. A sidebar will appear showing any incorrect (or unknown) word found, allowing you to edit and replace it in a second line. Whenever an unknown word is found, the word is highlighted and the text scrolled so that it is visible. In the spellchecker sidebar, there is a box showing suggestions for a correctio n, if any could be found. Clicking on one of the corrections will copy it to the \family sans Replacement \family default field, double-clicking directly invokes the replacement. Unknown but correctly typed words can be added to the personal dictionary. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard By default, the dictionary file used is determined by the document language that is set in the \family sans Document\SpecialChar menuseparator Settings \family default dialog. You can specify the language of a word in the spellchecker dialog by choosing a different one at the top of the dialog. \SpecialChar LyX can correctly spell check documents containing multiple languages. This works if you have set the language of the text parts using the \family sans Text \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Style \family default dialog ( \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "dialog-show character" \end_inset ) and have the spell checker dictionaries installed. \SpecialChar LyX automatically switches to the appropriate dictionary file. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard All spell-checker dictionaries supported by \SpecialChar LyX can be downloaded from here: \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \begin_inset Flex URL status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout http://sourceforge.net/projects/lyxwininstaller/files/hunspell/ \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset There are 2 \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset files for each language. To install a dictionary on Windows, copy the 2 \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset files into \SpecialChar LyX 's installation subfolder \family sans ~ \backslash Resources \backslash dicts \family default and restart \SpecialChar LyX . \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset With Linux one needs to install the packages for the desired language. The number of these packages vary depending on the Linux distribution, but in most cases these are \family typewriter aspell-xx \family default , \family typewriter hunspell-xx \family default , \family typewriter myspell-xx \family default , etc., where \family sans xx \family default is the language code. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Further Settings \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In the menu \family sans Tools\SpecialChar menuseparator Preferences\SpecialChar menuseparator Language \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Settings\SpecialChar menuseparator Spellchecker \family default you can set the following things: \end_layout \begin_layout Description Spellchecker \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset engine Select the library \SpecialChar LyX should use for spell checking.

This should normally not be needed. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Accept \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset compound \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset words Prevents the spell checker from complaining about compounded words like \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset passthrough \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Description Spellcheck \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset continuously Checks the spelling of your document as you type it. Misspelled words get underlined with a dotted red line. By right-clicking on an underlined word, suggestions from the spellchecker appear in a context menu. Choosing one of them will replace the misspelled word with the suggested word. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Spellcheck \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset notes \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset and \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset comments If enabled, the spelling of non-printed document content is checked as well. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Thesaurus \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Thesaurus \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Thesaurus" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \SpecialChar LyX provides a multilingual thesaurus.

Therefore, \SpecialChar LyX is able to directly access OpenOffice thesaurus dictionaries, which are available for many languages. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard This section describes how new dictionaries are installed and set up for the use with \SpecialChar LyX . \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Setting up the thesaurus \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \family sans MyThes \emph on / \emph default OpenOffice \family default thesauri consist of two files per language: A file with the suffix \emph on *.dat \emph default containing the data and an index file with the suffix \emph on *.idx \emph default . The standardized file names include the language code for the given language (e. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \family sans en_US \family default for US English). For instance, the US English files are named: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize th_en_EN_v2.idx \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize th_en_EN_v2.dat \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you have \family sans LibreOffice \family default or \family sans OpenOffice \family default and its thesaurus installed, these files should be already on your system and you just need to point \SpecialChar LyX (in \family sans Tools\SpecialChar menuseparator Preferences\SpecialChar menuseparator Paths\SpecialChar menuseparator Thesaurus \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset dictionaries \family default ) to the path where they are installed. \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout On Linux, depending on your distribution and the way you installed the dictionar ies, typical locations are \family typewriter /usr/share/mythes/ \family default , \family typewriter /usr/share/myspell/dicts/ \family default , \family typewriter /usr/share/ooo/thesaurus/ \family default , \family typewriter ~/.config/libreoffice//user/ \family default or alike.

A dialog pops up showing you probably related words that you can use as a replacement. The suggestions are grouped into categories. Note that, for some languages (such as English), the thesaurus does not only show equivalent words (synonyms), but also generic terms (such as \emph on organism \emph default for \emph on plant \emph default ), related terms (such as \emph on political \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset theory \emph default for \emph on anarchistic \emph default ), compounds (such as \emph on tree \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset diagram \emph default , if you look for \emph on tree \emph default ) and opposites (antonyms) (such as \emph on girl \emph default for \emph on boy \emph default ). Generic terms, related terms and antonyms are marked as such. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The language is automatically chosen from the language at the cursor, but you can also switch it in the dialog, as you can enter new words to look up directly there. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Note that the thesaurus cannot handle phrases (only compounds that are in the dictionary, such as the above \emph on tree diagram \emph default ), and you have to use the so called lemma form, i. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset e. \begin_inset space \space{} \end_inset the form that is used in the dictionaries (for many languages: first person singular indicative active for nouns, infinitive for verbs). For example, looking up the word form \emph on reporting \emph default yields no results, while results are shown for the word form \emph on report \emph default . Your best bet is to highlight only the relevant part of such a word (e. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space \space{} \end_inset \emph on report \emph default in \emph on report \emph default s); then you will get suggestions without needing to adjust the query in the dialog, and also the replacement will probably be correct (as only the highlighted part will be replaced; thus the ending remains). \end_layout \begin_layout Section Change Tracking \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Change Tracking \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Document !

For more about layout-files, see the chapter \emph on Installing New Document Classes, Types of Layout Files \emph default of the \emph on Customization \emph default Handbook. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Some classes use special class options by default. If this is the case, they are listed in the field \family sans Predefined \family default and you can decide to use them or not. If you do not know exactly what the default class options are for, it is recommended you leave them untouched. The \family sans Graphics driver \family default is used for \SpecialChar LaTeX 's graphics, color and page layout packages. If using \family sans Default \family default , the default driver for the \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages is used. It is recommended that you use the default unless you know what you are doing. \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout When you want to use one of the following drivers \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \family sans dvi2ps, dvialw, dvilaser, dvitops, psprint, pubps, ln \family default \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset you first have to activate them in your \SpecialChar LaTeX distribution, see section \emph on Driver support \emph default in \begin_inset CommandInset href LatexCommand href target "http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/required/graphics/grfguide.pdf" \end_inset . \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Specifying a \family sans Master \family default document is necessary if the current document is a child or subdocument. The master document will be used by \SpecialChar LyX in the background if the child document is opened without its master. This way child documents are always compilable. More about master and child documents is explained in the section \emph on Child Documents \emph default of the \emph on Embedded \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Objects \emph default manual. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There is also an option to suppress the date and one to use the \SpecialChar LaTeX -package \series bold refstyle \series default instead of \series bold prettyref \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! prettyref \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! refstyle \end_layout \end_inset for cross-references, see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Cross-References" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Section Child Documents \end_layout \begin_layout Standard This submenu is only visible when your document includes child documents.

The \family sans Line \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset spacing \family default and whether it should be a \family sans Two-column \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset document \family default can also be specified here. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Note that \SpecialChar LyX will not show two columns or the specified line spacing on screen. That would be impractical, often unreadable, and is not part of the WYSIWYM concept. However, it will be as you specified in the output. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard With the option \family sans Use justification in \SpecialChar LyX work area \family default you can decide if \SpecialChar LyX justifies the text on screen. This only affects the text inside \SpecialChar LyX not in the output. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Page Layout \end_layout \begin_layout Standard This dialog is described in sections \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Paper-Size,-Orientation" \end_inset and \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Document-Layout" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Section Page Margins \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Here you can adjust the page margins as described in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Margins" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Section Language \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Language-encodings" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english Language ! Encoding \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The document language and quote styles are set here. The encoding specifies how the document content is exported to \SpecialChar LaTeX (the \SpecialChar LyX file is always encoded in utf8). All characters that cannot be encoded using the specified encoding will be exported as \SpecialChar LaTeX -commands (this can fail if a \SpecialChar LaTeX -command is not known for a particular character). \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you use the option \family sans Language Default \family default , \SpecialChar LyX determines the encoding of a text part from the language of this text. If the document contains text in more than one language you may get more than one encoding in the \SpecialChar LaTeX file. If you do not use this option then the complete document will always use exactly one encoding. Checking this option is the preferred setting. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \SpecialChar LyX also supports Unicode output, which is particularly useful if you need lots of special symbols or non-alphabetic scripts, respectively. If you want to use this (and your \SpecialChar LaTeX installation supports Unicode), choose one of the four utf8 variants from the list below. Unfortunately the Unicode support of standard \SpecialChar LaTeX is quite incomplete, so it is not uncommon that a file with lots of Unicode symbols works fine with \family sans Language Default \family default (when \SpecialChar LyX uses its list of known \SpecialChar LaTeX -commands), but does not work with a fixed utf8 encoding (when the list of known \SpecialChar LaTeX -commands is not used, because all Unicode symbols can be encoded in utf8). The situation is much better with Xe\SpecialChar TeX and Lua\SpecialChar TeX , two new alternative engines to standard \SpecialChar LaTeX . Both engines support Unicode natively. \SpecialChar LyX now also supports these two engines (via the output formats \family sans PDF \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (XeTeX) \family default , \family sans PDF \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (LuaTeX) \family default and \family sans DVI \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (LuaTeX) \family default , see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Output-file-formats" \end_inset ). So if you are using many special or accented characters and \family sans Language Default \family default fails, you might try out one of these new engines. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \family sans Language \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset package \family default determines the \SpecialChar LaTeX -package that is used for hyphenation and the translation of strings like \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Part \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . The possible settings are: \end_layout \begin_layout Description Default uses the language package that is selected in \family sans Tools\SpecialChar menuseparator Preferences\SpecialChar menuseparator Language Settings \family default (see section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "subsec:Prefs-Language" \end_inset ). \end_layout \begin_layout Description Automatic selects the most suitable language package for the view/export format you will use. In many cases this will be \series bold babel \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! babel \end_layout \end_inset . If the newer package \series bold polyglossia \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! polyglossia \end_layout \end_inset is more appropriate (is the case when using Xe\SpecialChar TeX or Lua\SpecialChar TeX and non-\SpecialChar TeX fonts), this package will be used instead of \series bold babel \series default . \end_layout \begin_layout Description Always \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Babel uses \series bold babel \series default even if \series bold polyglossia \series default would be more appropriate. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Custom allows you to specify a language package command of your choice. For example if you want to use a language-specific package like \series bold ngerman \series default (for German texts), type in \series bold \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \backslash usepackage{ngerman} \end_layout \begin_layout Description None will not use a language package. This is necessary for some document classes for scientific articles. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Here is a list with the important encodings: \end_layout \begin_layout Description Language \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Default \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (no \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset inputenc) Same as \family sans Language Default \family default , but the \SpecialChar LaTeX -package \series bold inputenc \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! inputenc \end_layout \end_inset is not used. When using this, you probably need to load some additional packages manually in the preamble and specify the used encoding for text parts in foreign languages in \SpecialChar TeX code. \end_layout \begin_layout Description ASCII the ASCII encoding, covers only plain English (7-bit ASCII). \SpecialChar LyX converts all other characters into \SpecialChar LaTeX commands, which may result in a big file when lots of \SpecialChar LaTeX -commands are needed. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Arabic \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (CP \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 1256) MS Windows code page for Arabic and Farsi \end_layout \begin_layout Description Arabic \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (ISO \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 8859-6) for Arabic and Farsi \end_layout \begin_layout Description Armenian \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (ArmSCII8) for Armenian \end_layout \begin_layout Description Baltic \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (CP \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 1257) MS Windows code page for Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian, the same as the ISO-8859-13 encoding \end_layout \begin_layout Description Baltic \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (ISO \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 8859-13) for Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian, a superset of the ISO-8859-4 encoding \end_layout \begin_layout Description Baltic \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (ISO \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 8859-4) (latin 4) for Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian, a subset of the ISO-8859-13 encoding \end_layout \begin_layout Description Central \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset European \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (CP \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 1250) MS Windows code page for ISO \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 8859-2 (latin2) \end_layout \begin_layout Description Central \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset European \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (ISO \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 8859-2) (latin 2) covers Albanian, Croatian, Czech, German, Hungarian, Polish, Romanian, Slovak and Slovenian \end_layout \begin_layout Description Chinese \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (simplified) \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (EUC-CN) for simplified Chinese, used especially on UNIX OSes, since 2001 this encoding is officially replaced by the encoding GB18030, as GB18030 is not available for \SpecialChar LaTeX you should try to use the encoding Unicode \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (CJK) \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (utf8) \end_layout \begin_layout Description Chinese \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (simplified) \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (GBK) for simplified Chinese, is the same as the Windows code page CP 936 except for the Euro currency sign, since 2001 this encoding is officially replaced by the encoding GB18030, as GB18030 is not available for \SpecialChar LaTeX you should try to use the encoding Unicode \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (CJK) \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (utf8) \end_layout \begin_layout Description Chinese \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (traditional) \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (EUC-TW) for traditional Chinese \end_layout \begin_layout Description Cyrillic \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (CP \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 1251) MS Windows code page for Cyrillic \end_layout \begin_layout Description Cyrillic \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (ISO \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 8859-5) covers Belorussian, Bulgarian, Macedonian, Serbian and Ukrainian \end_layout \begin_layout Description Cyrillic \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (KOI8-R) standard Cyrillic especially for Russian \end_layout \begin_layout Description Cyrillic \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (KOI8-U) Cyrillic for Ukrainian \end_layout \begin_layout Description Cyrillic \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (pt \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 154) Cyrillic for Kazakh \end_layout \begin_layout Description Greek \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (ISO \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 8859-7) for Greek \end_layout \begin_layout Description Hebrew \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (CP \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 1255) MS Windows code page for Hebrew, a superset of the ISO-8859-8 encoding \end_layout \begin_layout Description Hebrew \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (ISO \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 8859-8) for Hebrew \end_layout \begin_layout Description Japanese \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (CJK) \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (EUC-JP) EUC-JP encoding for Japanese, uses the \SpecialChar LaTeX -package \series bold CJK \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages !

The most widespread language package is \series bold babel \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! babel \end_layout \end_inset ; it is the default language package in classic \SpecialChar LaTeX . More recent typesetting engines such as Xe\SpecialChar TeX and Lua\SpecialChar TeX come with the alternative language package \series bold polyglossia \series default \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \lang english \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages ! polyglossia \end_layout \end_inset that is more suited to the multi-script support of these engines. Furthermore, there are also specific language packages for languages not covered by \series bold babel \series default . The available selections are described in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Language-encodings" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Description Command \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset start If a special \SpecialChar LaTeX -package is needed to write in a certain document language, you can here specify the command to start the package. An example is the start command \family sans \backslash begin{arabtext} \family default that is needed to write Arabic using the package \series bold Arab\SpecialChar TeX \series default , see \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "Arabic" \end_inset . The default is the \series bold babel \series default command \family sans \backslash selectlanguage{$$lang} \family default . \end_layout \begin_layout Description Command \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset end Counterpart to \family sans Command start \family default . Some packages, like the default, don't have an end command since the start command toggles the package on and off. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Default \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset decimal \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset separator Defines the default decimal point for use in tables (decimal point alignment). \end_layout \begin_layout Description Default \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset length \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset unit Defines the unit that is used as default for lengths in \SpecialChar LyX 's dialogs. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Set \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset languages \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset globally When this option is set, the languages used in the document will be added as options to the document class options, so that they can be used by all \SpecialChar LaTeX -packages. Otherwise they will only be used as options for the \series bold babel \series default package. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Auto \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset begin When this option is set, documents start with the chosen document language. When this option is not set, the \family sans Command \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset start \family default is explicitly set to the beginning of the document in the \SpecialChar LaTeX -output. This assures that the correct language is used when you use another \family sans Command \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset start \family default than the default. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Auto \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset end Counterpart to \family sans Auto \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset begin \family default . When it is not set, the \family sans Command \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset end \family default is set to the end of the document. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Mark \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset foreign \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset languages Text marked formatted in a language different from the document language will be underlined in blue. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Enable \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset RTL \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset support Enables the use of languages, written from right to left (RTL), like Arabic, Hebrew or Farsi. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Cursor \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset movement When writing RTL, you can define if the left and right arrow keys move the cursor visually to the left or right, respectively, or logically. Logical means that the cursor is moved to the left when pressing the right arrow key and the cursor is inside text in an RTL language. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Spellchecker \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The spellchecker settings are explained in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Spellchecking" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Section Outputs \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection General \end_layout \begin_layout Description Output \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset line \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset length sets the maximum number of characters printed in one line when using the menu \family sans File\SpecialChar menuseparator Export\SpecialChar menuseparator Plain \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset text \family default .

Combinations of the encodings are possible, like \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family sans T1, T2B \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset . The font encoding is normally automatically loaded by the language packages \SpecialChar LyX sets up in the background. So there is no need to change the default encoding. \end_layout \begin_layout Description Default \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset paper \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset size This is the paper size that is used for new documents.
