[Tex/LaTex] Inserting caption for listings in LyX

captionslistingslyx

I'm using LyX 2.1.1 and want to put captions for listings. I can do this by using LaTeX code in ERT but would like to do by using LyX built-in capabilities of Insert > Program Listing. Any help will be highly appreciated.

First Insert->Program listing and then insert your code into the red box and then right mouse click with the mouse cursor inside the listing box. Choose preferences and then Extended. In the right frame you can insert for example "caption={my caption}".

[Tex/LaTex] Biblatex and listings incompatibility…

This minimal example, following your description, shows that it can be compiled without that error message complaining about \citet being undefined:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[natbib=true,style=alphabetic-verb,sorting=nty,hyperref,backend=bibtex8]{biblatex}
\begin{document}
al trabajo de \citet{Fernandez2007}.
\end{document}

However, I can confirm, that the error

! Undefined control sequence.
l.4 al trabajo de \citet
                        {Fernandez2007}.

would occur if no options to biblatex are used, i.e. if I just write \usepackage{biblatex}. This doesn't depend on the listings package.

[Tex/LaTex] listings caption number

You could also use something like this in your document preamble:

\usepackage{chngcntr}
\AtBeginDocument{\counterwithin{lstlisting}{section}}

This would resemble the same behaviour as:

\renewcommand{\thelstlisting}{\thechapter.\thesection.\arabic{lstlisting}}

But I think the first variant is much cleaner and more flexible. You could specify \AtBeginDocument{\counterwithin{lstlisting}{subsection}} just as well.

Or \AtBeginDocument{\counterwithin{lstlisting}{chapter}} if you like.

I hope this helps.
