There is an option for indent or vertical space between paragraphs.
Load your document and than choose menu Layout-document. In the middle
of the document-menu are two buttons for paragraphs. Choose the one
for indent.

Lyx on Solaris 2.6

1999-08-19 Thread David F. Nitz

Hi,

I'm trying to install/run Lyx on Solaris 2.6.  Sources compile w/o errors,

and I'm able to start Lyx and get the splash screen, view online help.

But when I try to export to Latex an empty .tex file is created.

If I try to view th .dvi or .ps file directly from the Lyx "File" menu,

Lyx seems to go into an inifinite loop.

The same behavior happens with version 1.01 and 1.03 of Lyx.  Any

suggestions as to what is wrong here?

Theorems and Conjectures

1999-08-19 Thread Henry Pfister

I am writing a technical paper that will
have some theorems and conjectures in it.  I like
the standard "article" style the best, and would like
to use it.  But it does not support Lyx friendly
Theorems and Conjectures by default.  I can force
it with latex parts, but it won't be WSIWYM.
On the other hand, I don't like the style
of "amsart" articles.  But they support standard
theorem and conjectures styles.  I've tried editing
the premable to make this style look like the standard
"article", but there are many things to change.
Does anybody have a standard "article" type
style that includes Lyx style theorems?  Is it easy
to add these things to Lyx.  I know how to add them
to latex.
Or does anybody have a style file that makes
"amsart" look like "article"?
Thanks for your help.

Herbert,
Thanks for your response, but that didn't work. The "indent" radiobutton
was
already selected. No matter which one I select, I get the exact same
output.
Is there something special I need to do to "define" a paragraph?

Default Background Color

1999-08-19 Thread Murali Agastya

Hello, 

One used to be able to select the default background color with teh
commandline option of -BackgroundColor --- what happened to this option
in version 1.0*? 

If I am willing to recompile lyx, what changes should I make to get this
option working again? 

I am working on RedHat 5.2 on a Pentium mmx.

Thanks for any help.
