Dear List, Thanks for the comments by Liviu and Zan. Still asking: Is there nobody onlist with experience with the Lyx 2.0 default thesis template?
Liviu kindly asked for more details, so here we go: Replacing the text of the default template and adding on the front page below the box "coats of arms of university" a text in standard-format transfers that text to the third page. It is not possible to add text that would stay on the frontpage. The only text that does stay on the page is text formatted as "publishers" but that comes in very large font size and can hence not be diverted from its intended use to add some three line statement that I am required to include in the bottom of my front page. I need some way to include in the bottom of the front page of the default thesis template a text of three lines length in normal font size. Help would be very much appreciated. And thanks to Liviu and Zan again for previous comments.
