I "cloned," to use the terminology of the enumitem package
documentation section 7, a new itemize list and put it in the LaTeX
preamble of my Lyx file:
\newlist{emptydisplay}{itemize}{1}
\setlist[emptydisplay]{label={}, itemindent=1em, align=left, labelsep=!}
Now I can use this new itemize list by putting, e.g., the following
in an ERT box:
\begin{emptydisplay}
\item The inventor of bifocals wrote an autobiography
\item The first post-master general of the US wrote an autobiography
\end{emptydisplay}
Is there a way of making this new list a Lyx style, so I can apply it
just as I apply Quote, Enumerate-Resume, etc.? I suspect this might
involve modifying a layout file, or, even the enumitem module, is
that right? And if so, are there instructions somewhere for doing this?
Many thanks!
