Nevermind, I guess I've figured it out. The code would be something like the following.

\newtheorem{assump}{Assumption}
\newtheorem{assumpB}{Assumption}
\renewcommand\theassump{A\arabic{assump}}
\renewcommand\theassumpB{B\arabic{assumpB}}

\begin{assump}
This assumption is labelled "Assumption A1 ...

Hi,

I used the suggestion in this thread to label my assumptions A1, A2, and so on. But it turns out that I need a separate list of assumptions to be numbered B1, B2, etc. Is there a quick way I can achieve this? Thank you.

I have been using MikTeX 2.8 and has recently upgraded to MikTeX 2.9. To ensure my LyX (2.0) runs smoothly I uninstalled that and reinstalled the latest version (2.0.2), pointing it to my latest MikTex installation. However, when I use it to compile my document (Ctrl+R) a message box appears ...

Thanks for the suggestion. It doesn't seem to work with Windows (at least easily), so I finally used Briss.

Using Lyx, I would like to produce a pdf output so that the size of the pdf is just big enough to accommodate my table (instead of a full A4 page). Is it possible? Thanks.

Thanks for your suggestion and it works! I was just wondering where to tell my computer that "gnuplot is here" and your method is spot-on.

I tried the example in http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/gnuplot-basics/ but it doesn't work in Lyx. The final output looks something like the following which I guess is that GNUPLOT wasn't configured to run properly:

I've tried changing pdflatex $$i to pdflatex --shell-escape $$i ...

It seems alright now after I've also upgraded Adobe reader, but still occasionally I do get files that won't show the shadow correctly outside full screen mode.

The following is a pdf file created, which happens to be OK.

[...] Actually what I want is a continuous shadow, something like the bottom box in the figure below (instead of just having two "dots" - one at bottom-left and one top-right - as shown in the upper box of the same figure). [...]
I absolutely realize what you want. If you compared the two lists ...
