Hi Bob,
Thank you very much for your help. Sorry to bug everyone with these
questions. I only have a few more weeks to finish my thesis and I am
determined to use Lyx to get it done :). Not being a Lyx/Latex expert, the
help I'm getting from this user group is invaluable. If I can get all these
issues fixed, I am will turn over a "golden" Lyx template to the university
so lots of other students can benefit.
I have another TOC question. For some reason, the words 'Abstract', 'List
of Tables' and 'List of Figures' are not in all-caps in the TOC. Is there a
way to force them to be in caps? All the other first level titles are in
caps as required. I looked at the Lyx TOC setup and it only lets me choose
the depth being displayed not the formatting. Thank you again.
Adrian
