Hi, I am stuck trying to use a LaTeX style file with Lyx. Being relatively new to Lyx and not knowing much about LaTeX does not help me either! Therefore my call for help to you out there: I followed the example in 6.2.2 of the "Customizing Lyx" manual (vs. 1.1.6). What I could not figure out: into which directory does the "myclass.sty" file in the example have to go? Should I rather go to the users-mailing list for the remaining question? I'll ask it anyway: The style file I am trying to use is for journals of Meteorological Societies, "amets.sty". I made a new layout file by using the "article.layout" file to produce an "amets.layout" in ~/.lyx/layouts. Its beginning is: #% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this # \DeclareLaTeXClass[article,amets.sty]{article( AMetS)} # Article textclass definition file. Taken from initial LyX source code # Author : Matthias Ettrich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> # Transposed by Pascal André <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> # Heavily modifed and enhanced by serveral developers. Preamble \usepackage{amets} EndPreamble # Input general definitions Input stdclass.inc I have not made any changes to stdclass.inc, and I don't know where to put the "amets.sty" file. I am including the amets.sty file here for my next questions: After I change in Lyx: Layout->Document to article( AMetS) should I not be able to see paragraph environments like asection asubsection etc. ? Thank you very much for your help (because if I can't get that to work, I'll have to switch back to MS bloatware)! Georg =================================================================== amets.sty
