Hi There!

I have a few question:

1. If I do undo while having 'instant-preview' on, it will not 'instant-preview' the equations in this
paragraph until I click onto them again. Is that a known bug?

2. In a multi-line equation environment, how can I delete an overabundant
line?

3. I would like to have definitions, lemmas, examples in my standard article
layout. I tried to achieve that by 'include amsmath.inc' but it seems not
to work. Is there an easy solution?

4. When I hit (Applekey+Enter), it will nicely reformat the
equation from Display-mode to multiline mode (very cool) - but the cursor
moves from the end of the equation to the middle. When I then just want to
start a new line and not move half the equation down, I first have to use
the cursor to go to the end of the line, before pressing (Applekey+Enter)
That is very impractical when entering equations fast. Is there a way to shut
that off?

5. I believe, it would be much more intuitive to use Enter instead of
(Applekey+Enter) for starting new lines in equations.

Thanks again for all help so far...

Best wishes,
Jan Peters

Re: citation numbering control

Stephen Buonopane wrote: Is there a simple way to start the BibTex citation numbering at something other than [1]? BibTex uses the enumiv counter, so I need to do something like \setcounter{enumiv}{5}, for example to start at 5. But this needs to be defined within the thebibliography environment. I am guessing I need to do something like \renewenvironment{thebibliography}[1][] {\begin{thebibliography}\setcounter{enumiv}{5}} {\end{thebibliography}} you have a recursion here, it cannot work. in the preamble, but this gives me errors. I am a complete novice with the renewenvironment command. Are there any good examples out there? Basically I just want to add the \setcounter command and leave everything else as is. Another approach might be to substitute my own counter for enumiv using \usecounter? try in ERT, where your bibliography shall pe printed in the doc \bgroup \setcounter{enumiv}{5} \bibliographystyle{plain}% or any other style \bibliography{bibfile} % without extension .bib \egroup Herbert

Re: Multiline equation to display equation fix?

Andrew Morrison wrote: What it says is this: \begin{multline} \mathbf{u}=-\frac{1}{\rho}\int\bigtriangledown p\, dt\label{eq:part_vel}\end{multline} You encountered a bug. The menu menu Edit->Math->Change Formula Type->Displayed don't work with multline environments. You should fill out a bug report. To solve your problem, mark the characters inside your formula and copy them to a new displayed formula. regards Uwe

What I usually do is create a new Display-Math box and copy the content there. Not elegant but still better than vi.
