Lyx and Biblatex - changing author-output

Post by pyriand3r »

Hi,
i'm using Lyx right now the first time and i kept myself busy with crating a working layout for me.
I'm using biblatex with authortitle-ibid style for the bibliography-output and have changed till now many things to adjust it to my needs, but now i have one thing left i cannot change.

When there are more than one author, the name of the first author is written "last name + , + first name" - second, third, ... author are written "first name + last name". I would like to say biblatex to use "last name + , + firstname" for all authors, not only the first one.

an example:

it looks like this:

Farin, Klaus/Harald Hauswald/Helmut Heitmann: ...

and i want it like this:

Farin, Klaus/Hauswald, Harald/Heitmann, Helmut: ...


How can i tell biblatex to do so?

thx,
pyri

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Hi,
sorry. Just had another google-session and found the solution. For everyone who wants to know. I added this to my preambel and it works:

Code: Select all

%\DeclareNameFormat{default}{% Vollzitate
%\usebibmacro{name:last-first}{#1}{#3}{#5}{#7}%
%\usebibmacro{name:andothers}}

%\DeclareNameFormat{labelname}{% alle anderen Zitate
%\usebibmacro{name:last-first}{#1}{#3}{#5}{#7}%
%\usebibmacro{name:andothers}}

\DeclareNameFormat{sortname}{% Bibliographie
\iffirstinits
{\usebibmacro{name:last-first}{#1}{#4}{#5}{#7}}
{\usebibmacro{name:last-first}{#1}{#3}{#5}{#7}}%
\usebibmacro{name:andothers}} 
greetz,
pyri
