Dear LyX users,
I am nesting description lists and want to justify the text
within the nested list.
I have attached my MWE, output and a copy of what I want the
output to look like.
I am using the module "Customisable Lists (enumitem)." with the
article class. When I right click on the description label, an
options box is produced. However, the options to go in the box (I
get the options from the enumitem package) are not producing the
desired effect.
Warm Regards,
Anthony
The attached solution is horribly hack-ish, but I think does what
you want. You need to use the "style=multiline" option and juggle
the left margin settings a bit. Also, LaTeX wants to align the
indented description term with the start of the definition of an
unindented term, so I had to put some custom line spacing in to
drag the indented items back to where you want them. There's
probably a more elegant solution to be found somewhere.

Thanks Paul.
Ideally, it would be nice if the labelwidth could be determined based
upon the width of the longest label. But my skills are not yet up to that.
I have a solution below that is workable.
However, I have done a little more exploring with the description
options (right-clicking or Alt A 1). Not all of them seem to work as
they should. In particular, the options which require a \command don't
seem to work. Am I missing something?
Anthony
Can you post an MWE of a command that you don't think is working as
expected?
Paul
