I looked in the CGAl sources. Their custom layout file is 6Kb and opens normal.

I am using the latest VS Code to write python Qt code (under Ubuntu 20.04). One obstacle is that VS code does not recognize known file types such as .ui files, and opens it as raw text or xml file.
By comparison, other editors such as eclipse opens the .ui file with its OS default program -- Qt Designer. With VS Code, I had to open a file manager and then find and double-click the file to open it the right way (the same as opening the file using xdg-open in terminal), which is quite inefficient.
Does anyone know of a way to configure VS code to open a known file directly using its OS default program?
There are two extensions that I know of that tackle this problem (no affiliation):
Open in External App
... with this extension, you can do it more simply. Just right click to the file, and select Open in External App, that file would be opened by system default application. You can also use this way to open .psd files with photoshop, .html files with browser, and so on...
The configuration implies that you need to manually set which app to use for which extension, so it doesn't simply use the default configured in your OS (at least not in my brief test).
Open
Opens files using the OS's default program for the file type
This does what it says out of the box, but the keyboard shortcut seems to fail. The command can only be triggered via the right-click menu of the file in the vscode file browser.
I have a folder with two .tex files, say a.tex and b.tex opened in VSCode.
When launching Recipe: latexmk (Latex Workshop extension) from the Commands tab, or Ctrl+Alt+B, it always compiles a.tex even when b.tex is focused in the editor.
How do I specify which .tex file I'd like to be compiled, if not by focusing in the editor?
Actually, the answer can be found here: https://github.com/James-Yu/LaTeX-Workshop/wiki/Compile
My personal issue was that my b.tex file does not contain \begin{document} which Latex Workshop look for when automatically finding the root file.
I use Visual Studio Code to work on projects that not only include program code, but also data files, e.g. in Excel format.
VSCode cannot edit such files, as they are binary. Attempting to do so shows a warning, and if you persist, the file is shown (as gibberish).
I've also tried to pass the file to the (CMD) terminal (right click, 'Open in Terminal'). In a regular CMD window that would invoke the default application, but that does not work in VSCode.
Is there a simple way that I can use from VSCode to open such files using the default applications?
The extension sandcastle.vscode-open does this. Install it, and you can open any file with its default application by right clicking on the filename in the explorer menu.
In v1.66 you can set a default editor for binary files and avoid the warning (see release notes: binary file):
Default binary editor
A new setting, workbench.editor.defaultBinaryEditor, lets you
circumvent the binary file warning and automatically open the editor
type of your choosing when a binary file is detected. You can select
the default binary editor from a dropdown in the Settings editor or
via IntelliSense in settings.json.
TBH, I am still investigating whether you can set this to some external application like Excel?
I am new to ipython notebook, and I would like to convert my ipynb to pdf. But I get the following error when I try to Download as PDF via LaTex.
nbconvert failed: pdflatex not found on PATH
There is no documentation anywhere how to add pdflatex to my PATH. I use windows. Thank you!
A simple and surprisingly good solution is to print the notebook to pdf through the browser with ctrl+p. Just make sure your plots and figures are not on interactive mode otherwise they will not be displayed (set them to %matplotlib inline).
Exporting jupyter notebooks through latex is quite troublesome and takes a lot of tinkering to get something remotely close to publish ready. When I absolutely need publication quality I do it on a latex editor, but this tutorial goes in great length about doing it on jupyter.
A few useful tips to get better results:
Higher resolution plots
Hide your code-cells from the pdf
Take a look at these extensions to improve your jupyter documents
For Mac OS X, the solution for me was to install MacTex first and then export the path to find it:
### TeX
export PATH="/Library/TeX/Distributions/.DefaultTeX/Contents/Programs/texbin:$PATH"
You can add this to your .bash_profile or similar config file to load it every time.
See more here https://github.com/jupyter/nbconvert/issues/406
As said by Thomas K in the comments, you need to have Latex installed, and after add the path to the directory containing pdflatex.exe file to the PATH variable of your system.
I have looked for a lightweight distribution and tried installing TeXworks, but I didn't find any pdflatex.exe file.
So I have tried TeX Live, which worked fine creating the pdflatex.exe file under the target installation directory. This path should be like C:\...\texlive\2016\bin\win32.
Finally, you should just add this path to the PATH environment variable of your system (you can use the link shared by Thomas K).
As said here, you need to quit jupyter notebook and open a new command prompt after making any path changes, in order for jupyter to find the newly added item to the PATH.
Then, in Jupyter, you can check your environment variables by running the following (refer to this link for details):
import os
os.environ['PATH'].split(';')
and check if it contains the path to pdflatex.exe file.
If you get some trouble when exporting your notebook to pdf due to missing files/packages (this happened to me), refer to this link to search and install them under TeX Live.
For Linux, the reported error is due to the lack of XeLatex, part of the texlive-xetex package.
Installation in ubuntu will be:
sudo apt install texlive-xetex
Instead of using nbconvert what you can do is :
Download your ipynb file as HTML from File option.
Right-click and select print or use Ctrl+P.
Save as PDF
Easy.
Here is the full solution that worked for me (for Mac).
brew cask install mactex
$ cd ~/
$ touch .bash_profile
This will open the bash profile on TextEditor
$ open -e .bash_profile
Paste the following to the top and save
export PATH="/Library/TeX/Distributions/.DefaultTeX/Contents/Programs/texbin:$PATH"
Close any notebook you have and reopen it
Here is the notebook explaining it step by step:
https://github.com/ybaktir/notes/blob/master/Convert%20Jupyter%20Notebook%20to%20Pdf.ipynb
I agree that latex installation (at least on windows) is painful and the result in my case was not a great looking document. The ctrl-p method alone doesn't work great if you're running in JupyterLab, but if you export the notebook to HTML, then print from the browser, choosing PDF, the result is quite good.
I know my solution is not at a level. But it works !!
in your browser of notebook tab, simply do "ctrl + p" to get download in pdf
First export the notebook file to HTML (available through File> Download as..).
If you are using JupyterLab, then this is available under File > Export Notebook As....
Use (any) free online converters to convert html file to a pdf file. (One such free online converter is sejda (https://www.sejda.com/html-to-pdf)
Note, there are many such converters are available online.
Libreoffice Impress Export as Images extension does not work. "Export as Images" Menu is not being added to File Menu.
Link- http://extensions-test.libreoffice.org/extension-center/export-as-images
I am using Libreoffice 3.4. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Quick workaround: start the Export as Images macro manually. It's located under My Macros -> ExportImages -> ExportImages. Look for a macro named ExportAsImages and run it. Once found and started, it works fine :) (i don't know why it doesn't show up in the File menu).
EDIT:
Editing the macro is possible using the built-in IDE: once it's installed, you can access its LibreOffice Basic source using Tools-> Macros -> Organize Macros... -> LibreOffice Basic.
It's also possible to run it from the command line, but in its current form, it requires user interaction to specify the output file name and graphics format. So i assume it isn't possible to run it completely in "headless" mode without modifying the source. To run it from the command line on Linux, converting the file /tmp/mypresentation.odp, use:
$ simpress /tmp/mypresentation.odp "vnd.sun.star.script:ExportImages.ExportImages.ExportAsImages?language=Basic&location=application"
