thanks for the quick response, I tried what you suggested and now I
have a class called toptesi in Lyx, but when I try to use it even on
an empty doc, it gives me an error and says "the document could not be
converted into the document class toptesi".....so what should I do in
this case?
Sorry, I made a silly mistake somewhere. Open toptesi.layout, and where
it says "Format 6", change it to "Format 4".

thx

Hi! I've just found out that my Master's thesis MUST be
written using the
TOPtesi format/layout......and I have to get it done in 23
days, so I'm in a
kind of a hurry ;-), the thing is that I've written quite a
bit of it in Lyx
since I'm no expert in Latex, and I really like Lyx because it
is really
nice and simple to work with.
I use miktex and i have downloaded the package from the
repositories, but
still I get an error when a try to import a latex document
written with the
package (a friend of mine gave me a latex file with a TOC and
titles that
uses TOPtesi)
I really wouldn't want to change editor at this point so if
anyone knows how
to use that particular package in Lyx I would really
appreciate it, or if
anyone can explain me how to do it myself I would be glad to
do it and share
it with the rest of the world!
The problem is likely that you don't have a layout file for this
class, which means that LyX doesn't know about it, though LaTeX
might. It's based upon report.cls, so the attached should do it,
or at least be a good start. Put this in the /layout directory of
your local LyX configuration directory---that would be
~/.lyx/layouts/ in my case---and then launch LyX, hit
Tools>Reconfigure, close, and relaunch. You should then have a
toptesi layout available, and import should work.
