I’m writing my PhD thesis and after about 3000 words, I cannot compile LyX to get the pdf version. Thank you for your template, but it does not resolve my problem! Let me know if you make use of it (or make improvements), please. So visit Document-Settings-Preamble within LyX to change all the front matter settings. Instead, most of these definitions come in the LaTeX preamble and are kept for simplicity in the LyX preamble. The trick here is that most of the extra defined stuff for ubcthesis is not dealt with in the. In any case, you can now just launch ubcsamplelyx.lyx in LyX and bingo! You can see the resulting sample PDF. In the resulting folder you can, if you wish, update the ubcthesis.cls and genthesis.cls and the other files (linked from the UBC grad studies page). This is all you need:ĭownload and unzip my ubcthesislyx.zip . So, at least if you are not doing a manuscript-based thesis, you can write it all in LyX. I am now posting a (trivial) LyX layout file that can be used with Michael McNeil Forbes’ ubcthesis class to write your entire dissertation/thesis in LyX, rather than LaTeX source code. (This is useful for being able to compile each chapter into its paper form from the same file.) īut I had given up on the hope of writing the whole dissertation in LyX. Note that if you made changes to the number sequence of tables but not figures (or vice versa), the unchanged numbers should not be affected by the field update even though they were selected during step 4 of this process.A year ago when I finished my dissertation at UBC I posted a complete set of LaTeX files for generating a manuscript-based thesis (bibliographies separate for each chapter, etc) in which each chapter is a separate file in LaTeX. Your table and figure numbers, along with your list of tables or figures, should update immediately. Alternatively, PC users can deselect by pressing Ctrl + D.

Click an empty area of your document to deselect your table titles or figure captions.

Select the OK button to close the dialog box, if applicable.

Note that this dialog box won’t appear if you don’t have a list of tables or figures.

Select Update entire table to update the table or figure numbers in your list of tables or figures. A dialog box will appear if you have a list of tables or figures created with Word’s table of contents tool.Right-click on the selected text and select Update Field from the shortcut menu.However, use caution when selecting the entire document if it contains other fields because you may inadvertently update information that you don’t want to change. PC users can press Ctrl + A to select the entire document instead of performing the previous four steps.
