references, tables, headings
Hi folks... here are some doubts on the use of lyx, I wonder if you know how to help me: 1. I'm using apalike references style which formats each entry like (key, year), but in some cases, not all, I need an entry such as (year). Is there any way of doing this and keep using apalike styles? 2 . How should I manage to have two tables side-by-side in a page, each which its own caption? 3. Is there any way to change headings' font? I'm using a fancy page style, and it automatically use times font, but I need it in helvetica (or similar). Is it possible? Thank you very much folks []s rlopes
