LyX ⇒ Bibliography

[MOLA]

Maksi,
I have done both, moved files and updated software. But i checked that the lyx settings were the same as before and that the bibliography file was in the correct place. I can add citations and they display correctly, the problem is when i generate the PDF file. In the LaTeX log it says something like this:

Package natbib Warning: Citation `Nie01' on page 58 undefined on input line 181
9.

and so on for all of the bibliography entries.

Try typing the full path of your .bib file. This will not work when you will change your directory tree, but perhaps works to fix your problem. It worked with my biblatex package.

Hi all:

About the Biblates package:

I'm trying to install it into my computer —macosx 10.4.11—, but It doesn't works. I want to manage Bibliographys for Phd works in phylosophy, and I need to cite the whole reference in the footnotes and use ibid when a reference repeats. Something like this:

inlinebib1.gif (3.6 KiB) Viewed 3990 times

I've found two options:


A. Inline style


http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/biblio/ ... inebib.htm

it's supose that the unse is simply, but i can't do it works.

B. Biblatex Package B)

This is what I want to use. The manual in lyx is here:

http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Biblatex

whith the packet and documentation in CTAN:

http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Ca ... latex.html

but it doesn't works…

This is what I did:

1. Like in the README of the CTAN page o biblatex (http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/ ... tex/README) I have install the archives in the local directory texmf:

Copy all files found in the 'latex' directory of this package to

<TEXMFLOCAL>/tex/latex/biblatex/

and the file in the 'bibtex' directory to

<TEXMFLOCAL>/bibtex/bst/biblatex/

where <TEXMFLOCAL> denotes the root of the local TeX installation tree

Later, sudo rehash in terminal and reconfigure in LyX.

2. The next step, follow the Biblatex manual in the LyX page:

http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Biblatex

Where the first step is:

Put the file biblatex.module in the layouts folder in your user directory (Help→About LyX tells you where you can find this directory).
Run Edit→Reconfigure, restart LyX and select the module "Biblatex-citation-styles" from Document→Settings→Modules.

OK, here is the first problem, it doesn't appears the cited module in Document→Settings→Modules.

What can I do?

Hi there:

OK, the problem was with the commans in the preamble instead with the module.

Is not neccesary to configure the module in Document→Settings→Modules, only to put the command for the package in the preamble and the call for the bibliography:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[style="name-of-the-style"]{biblatex}
\"path of the bibiography without .bib"}

My error was:

1. Insert the command for the packet using a Dash instead an Hyphen

With Dash

Code: Select all

\usepackage[style=name–of–the–packet]{biblatex}

With Hyphen

Code: Select all

\usepackage[style=name-of-the-packet]{biblatex}

Don't see any difference? The computer yes, with Dash gets crazy, and we don't want this…


2. Writing the path of the typography, a typing error


After the corrections it works. I can insert references in LyX by Insert→Cite.

I'm using the verbose-trad2 style:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[style=verbose-trad2]{biblatex}

It works perfect, and insert automatically the ibíd, Op. cit. and more, fantastic.

Regards

Antonio
