Generating one index for 2 different document types

Post by antbear »

Hi

I am currently writing a term paper. As the paper includes the translation of a dramatic text, i used the LyX hollywood template for this part of my work. The introduction to my paper, the theoretical aspects of translation, other contents of my work and the summary are written with the article template.

When i render the main article, the index contains the different sections but since i wrote it into another document, the one for translations is left empty. in result, the page numbers for sections following the translations such as the summary do not fit anymore.

Now, the problem to solve is, how do i get LyX to include the translation part(stageplay layout) into the index of the main article? is that even possible?

i can't append the translations, as they're a main part of the work thus to be included in the main document, neither can i paste it into the main article as it would lose its formatting

is there any way to do this?

thanks for any effords

greets, antbear

Unfortunately at the moment there are no really advanced LyX users on this board so that most requests concerning LyX remain unanswered. Perhaps the LyX Mailing Lists can help. You are welcome to report the result of your effort.


Best regards
