Hi all,
In the 7 years I've used LyX, every book had its own layout, and every single
time, I spent hours tweaking around trying to get my layout visible to the
document so that I could use my specialized document class.
What I typically do is:
1) Make the layout file
2) ln -s /bookdir/mybook.layout /home/slitt/.lyx/layouts/mybook.layout
3) Doublecheck the line that says # \DeclareLaTeXClass[book]{mybook}, make
sure it matches the filenames.
4) lyx
5) tools->reconfigure
6) exit lyx
7) lyx mybook.lyx
It never shows document class mybook, until I turkey around for hours to get
it to work. We need documentation on exactly what to do, and how to
troubleshoot layouts/document classes.
