General ⇒ What is the purpose of Find 1, Find 2 and Parse Tabs in Outp

[mrbenit]

Hello,

I would like you explain how to use or what is the purpose of the three tabs in the Output bar labeled Find 1, Find 2 and Parse. I cannot figure out the utility. I have googled but no success.

Hi Miguel,

the "Parse" tab shows the output of the TeXnicCenter TeX file parser. For example when there are some unmatched \begin or \end tags you will find some error messages in the "Parse" tab. The two "Find" tabs are helpful for the "Find in Files..." command. You can redirect the results of each search to either "Find 1" or "Find 2". Thus, you can do a second search without losing the results from your first search.

Hi roman,

I just red your answer and have a further question regarding this. Why do I have the error message "Found unmatched backmatter" and "Found unmatched document", although I have set the "\end{...}" parameter???

Here is my structure:

\documentclass{phd}
\usepackage{verbatim}
\usepackage{syntonly}
\usepackage[printonlyused]{acronym}
\usepackage{textcomp}
\usepackage{amsmath,amsfonts,amssymb}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{cite}
\bibliographystyle{ieeetr}
\hyphenation{op-tical net-works semi-conduc-tor wave-guide}
\author{****}
\title{Ph.D. Thesis}

\begin{document}
\begin{frontmatter}
\acresetall
\maketitle
\tableofcontents
\clearemptydoublepage
\end{frontmatter}
\begin{mainmatter}
\acresetall
\input{./mainmatter/chapter_21_WC_Intro}
...
\end{mainmatter}
\begin{backmatter}
\renewcommand{\bibname}{References}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\bibname}
\bibliography{./backmatter/jabref}
\clearemptydoublepage
\input{./backmatter/acronyms}
\acresetall
\end{backmatter}
\end{document}

Hi,

well, I don't know the phd documentclass nor the frontmatter, mainmatter and backmatter environments. At least until now. But isn't it just \frontmatter to begin the front part of the document, \mainmatter to end the front part and begin with the main stuff and then \backmatter to end the main part and start with back part?

[Pepe93]

Yes! It is, in fact.
I can also use just \frontmatter, \mainmatter and \backmatter, but I still have the problem with the unmatched document.
The documentclass I am using is a kind of a template from a colleague which includes those thesis styles.
At this moment I have some more serious problems, I am not able to create the PDF after updating Miktex packages and the paper size seems to be reset. But maybe, the unmatched document is the problem???
Do you want to have a look at the documentclass file?
May you can help me with this, because I am getting really nervous (have to finish writing within the next 2 weeks).

Thanks in advance.
Pepe

btw: Do you know, how do I copy the log information when an error is displayed?

[roman]

Yes, some more information about the documentclass may be usefull.

[Pepe93]

I attach you directly the whol file as it is very long.
Note: I have not created this file by my own. In fact, I am still very new on this, but this was the fastest way to get a nice document.

Thanks in advance!

I just created a small test with your doucmentclass and everything looks fine. Maybe your document is corrupt, e.g. any unmachted braces. Furthermore your problems with the paper size etc. might have the same source.

[Pepe93]

ok, thanks (again). You could also generate the PDF without problems?

I will check the document, but there were no errors for any braces or similar.
And the error persists even if I remove the part I wrote today?!?

[roman]

Yes, I could also generate the PDF without any problems. Once via latex and dvipdfm and once with pdflatex.
