LyX Tips: Footnotes in Captions

Have been fiddling around trying to get footnotes working in captions and so far have produced this result:

\begin{figure}[h]

\begin{centering}

\par\end{centering}

\caption{\label{fig:Cave-Automatic-Virtual}Cave Automatic Virtual Environment}

\begin{minipage}[t]{1\columnwidth}%

\end{minipage}

\end{figure}

I've yet to test the following: http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=ftncapt which is laid out slightly different. But will fiddle with that later.

ASUS 27" 3D screen to be released soon

Awaiting the release of this monitor. Shame I wasn't able to get the S3D items working in my project, but I'd be curious to try and tackle it either in my Special Interest Topics subject or within another project (possibly PhD).

Installation Instructions for LyX

Not sure if I posted this already, but had to do it again when I got a new laptop.

Instructions below. Thanks to David:

1. Install bibtex
2. Install LyX (which should install MikTeX and other relevant dependencies)
3. Create a working directory
   
4. Download my JCU LyX layout from here: http://davidjb.com/blog/2008/11/jcu-lyx-layout , and follow all relevant instructions regarding its use. Extract this file to the directory.
   
5. Set up a bibtex bibliography file (eg add a record to a new file in bibtex). Save to the same directory as the rest of your files.
6. In LyX, in your new document, add a bibliography, pointing to that bibtex file. I can't remember which menu this was under, but I'm sure you'll find it.
7. Add all relevant attributes to your LyX document at the top (Title, Author, Degree, etc, as per my blog post), and add Acknowledgements, Abstract, etc (from the style class drop down menu in LyX)
8. That should be it..

For my referencing, I'm using JabRef which is a reference manager tool: http://jabref.sourceforge.net/
