Hi
I'm trying to use the standalone class but it doesn't appear in the
dropdown in the documents settings dialogue.
When I look at Tools - Tex Information, standalone appears in both the
latex classes and latex styles list. Also I can compile a raw *.tex
file with pdflatex. So the latex side is available and works and lyx
kind of knows about it. Not sure what in lyx determines what's listed
in the dropdown though.
Any help appreciated
Using Ubuntu 16:04 Lyx 2.3.0.
Cheers
You need a LyX layout file for it. There's one at
https://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/Layouts (in section 7 of the user provided
layouts portion). Park it in your local layouts folder (~/.lyx/layouts
on a Linux system) and do Tools > Reconfigure in LyX, and you should be
good to go.
