comment Drawing tree like structure
Thank you very much! This package is so complex and with so many possibilities and it is really great to see it applied to one's own problem. I learned a lot!

comment Drawing tree like structure
This is just how it is supposed to look like. I started tikz-qtree and I am quite happy with the way it works (without having to name nodes explicitly) but I have no idea how to do this with tikz-qtree or tikz without qtree.

comment crossing out whole slide with LaTeX beamer
Thanks! Is there a way to not let the cross extend to the edges of the slide but let's say span the text area only. I have a header at the top of the slide and the header is not wrong, neither is the footer.

comment layout section heading
Language is the journal of the Lingusitics Society of America. Thanks a lot. I added \periodafter to paragraph and [run] in to the others and this did the trick. I think the rationale behind this layout is to safe as much space as possible. Hardly readable ...

comment Strange problem with BibTeX sorting
OK. This solves the problem at hand, but there must be a better way. With this way I would have to replace all Umlaute by ...\donothing. Right now I have Lüdeling, Luger, Lühr instead of Lüdeling, Lühr, Luger. Putting the \donothing in BibTeX basically ruins the database functions of BibDesk (search and so on).

comment How does one type Chinese in LaTeX?
Great. I am using xeCJK now. But there is an indentation of paragraphs at the beginning of a section. I tried to read the manual but it is in chinese. I found an option, but this option does not seem to do the trick.

comment Connecting two nodes in tree rectangular
Thanks! What does the manual shift do? Does it shift a v |- pobject?

comment URL field inherited despite separate cross reference item
The url = {} solution seems to work in principle. However, BibDesk is smarter than we are and removes the empty field from the database ...

comment URL field inherited despite separate cross reference item
OK. This is great, but the other poster is right too: In case I specify a specific value for the papers in the proceedings, I would like to see this value. So is there a trick that helps to see whether one deals with an inherited value or a specific one?

comment URL field inherited despite separate cross reference item
I agree. So, if something is specified, this should be printed for the individual items, but if nothing is specified, the value should not be inherited.

comment Eating a dot after a command
I have a bibliography that contains URLs they are set like \url{ ... }. I cannot influence this. So I have to redifine the url command to eat this dot.

comment Getting rid of space after \vpageref
Thanks! How silly not to take \vref in the first place. I use it at other places, but started with \ref and then thought about adding the page reference. Thanks anyway. Maybe we delete this question. Sort of embarrassing ...

comment Shifting parts of a tree to the left, create overlapping sisters in tikz-qtree?
OK. Thanks. I now managed to shift the adjective node below the Det node. But what I want is a combination of the two things. I want to shift the NP node to the left as in your solution and then shift everything below the V nodes to the left as well. sibling distance seems to fail here.

comment Shifting parts of a tree to the left, create overlapping sisters in tikz-qtree?
No, this adds space, I want to subtract space. For instance Adj should be typeset really close to the line connecting en and Det and han should be as much left as possible and close to er. The idea is to have the content as big as possible in order to make the stuff readable.

comment £ = $ with OT4 and tgpagella loaded
OK. This helps. Thanks! I will suggest this to the journal, because it is their style that has to be changed.

comment Is there a way to print two tikzpictures next to each other marked with a and b?
Yes, works! Thanks! How are such cases handled? Will this be taken care of in bidi later? Will it be anounced here later or do I have to check the updates and test whether I can remove your additional code?

When I started to deal with Persian, I tried to email him, but his mail account is not functional. Maybe he reads this. I try adding the bidi tag to my question ...

comment Is there a way to print two tikzpictures next to each other marked with a and b?
I would prefer this solution, but it seems incompatible with the bidi package: (/usr/local/texlive/2012/texmf-dist/tex/latex/bidi/xcolor-xetex-bidi.def) (/usr/local/texlive/2012/texmf-dist/tex/latex/bidi/float-xetex-bidi.def ! LaTeX Error: \floatc@plain undefined. See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation. Type H <return> for immediate help. ... l.16 \renewcommand\floatc@plain [2]{\setbox\@tempboxa\hbox{{\@fs@cfont #1:} #2}% ?

comment Making roofs smaller in tikz-qtree
OK. I looked at the tikz-qtree code, but do not know what to do. I would prefer a manipulation that does allow me to write \edge[my-roof] or maybe even overload the \edge[roof].

comment 2up pdf with the toc as bookmarks
Thanks for the hint! That works for the links (did not notice yet that they were broken too), but the bookmarks are gone. Let's wait for the robot. =;-)
