..but maybe the idea is that with some skilled administrators (yourself) it is possible to create document classes (layouts) which allow everyday users to enjoy high-quality typesetting. IMO, this an area of LyX which is under-explored. There are not enough (although there are some) LyX users pushing back the boundaries of what layouts can do. If more people like yourself were trying such tricks, the Dev team would hear about the limitations and make the engine more powerful... Jules
