Accents in the reference and citations

Post by Korrydwen »

Hello !
I am using the TheseENS template to write a thesis. i only used Lyx once before that ..
I am struggling with the accents. there are no problems in the main text, but then in the references it is a mess, no accent is showing.
i checked the encoding of the bib file, the packages used (inputenc) tried to deactivate it and declare only utf8 in the document class. then i tried to manually replace é with /'e or {'e}. nothing works :(
any ideas ?

Your best bet is to use m{\^e}l{\'e}e and such---BibTeX, if I recall correctly, does not handle non-ASCII characters all that well (or if it does, it messes up the alphabetization). Note that those are backslashes, not slashes.
