I don't understand your question. This looks like just a sectioning
(or partitioning) command so why would it have paragraph indents?
It is a variation of the normal part sectioning. Normally the page
following \part{...} is blank. This style allows the author to write
some text on this following page. In svmono.cls there is an environment
partbacktext that messes with the LaTeX-pagination in order to achieve
this. The LaTeX usage would be as follows:
\begin{partbacktext}
\part{Part title}
Text which should appear on the following page. This text could span
several paragraphs.
\end{partbacktext}
The layout that I copied into my original message implements this
construction. However my implementation has the bug that indentation is
not indicated in LyX.
4) svmono contains an environment svgraybox that provides a gray
background. I am aware that currently the background color cannot be
controlled by layouts. I have therefore chosen sans font in order to
indicate this environment, simply because this font is rarely used. Does
anyone have a better idea?
LyX already provides coloured boxes so you could just stick to these.
I am trying to provide a LyX implementation of each environment and
command that is offered in svmono.cls. A book author can then simply
export to latex in order to obtain a files that are ready for submission
to Springer.
