Re: enumeration depth
Thank you very much, I got the point! \renewcommand\labelenumi{\alph{enumi}.} \renewcommand\labelenumii{\roman{enumii}.} \renewcommand\labelenumiii{\roman{enumiii}.}, made the Job. Did not find this in the User Gidd, although this must be a very common probelm. Could this issue be included there??

header spacing
Hello again, Sorry, but I have another LaTex related question. I'm writing a document with onehalf spacing. But to me, the headings (chapter, section etc.) don't look very nice this way. So I want to set them to single spacing. At the moment, I'm using the setspace commands to do this: \singlespacing 1. Chapter one \onehalfspacing blabla... This is a little bit uncomfortable :-) Is there a way to set this in the preamble? I'm using KOMA-book. Thanks again, Juergen. begin:vcard n:Spitzmüller;Jürgen tel;fax:07644/ 930643 tel;home:07644/ 930642 x-mozilla-html:FALSE version:2.1 email;internet:[EMAIL PROTECTED] adr;quoted-printable:;;Dorfstr. 55=0D=0A;Hecklingen;;79341; x-mozilla-cpt:;0 fn:Jürgen Spitzmüller end:vcard
LOF and LOT in one chapter
Hello out there! This is a LaTeX-related question, but maybe someone has an idea... I'd like to have the List of Figures and the List of Tables in one chapter (in the appendix), like this: D.

exporting paths
Hello, I try yo use \custom_export_command. My problem is that the output file is written in a temporary directory. Is it possible to specify where to write the output, and if not at least to have by some parameter the original lyx document path? I remember that such questions have been asked before, but I haven't seen (or I've forgotten) answers about it... Can anyone help me? Bye, BG

the most annoying feature...
This is a comment for anyone who wants to take notice (hint hint, you developers out there). I am ever annoyed that when I have a footnote standing at the end of a line I cannot place my cursor after the footnote using my mouse, without opening the footnote window. I have to use my arrow keys to get my cursor there. Nor can I select such a line to delete it, without the same thing happening. I have to use . I hope that's clear. And in case I am griping about something which is fixable, please let me know how.

It will be available RSN. You just have to wait for the automatic updates to take place although I'm sure I committed it early enough that there should have been two updates by now.

There is one part I don't understand about it. If I could use just a bit more of your patience: Here is my problem. kbk.cls is a big, long confusing file and I don't understand all the stuff in there!

enumeration depth
Hi, The default enumeration style in lyx is [(1)], [(a)],, [(i)] "number, letter, i" something like this 1. a i b i ii 2. Would like to skip the first level and get directly to the second enumeration depth as default. Is there any quick fix (in the LaTeX preamble)?? (The nasty way to do it is to export the file as Latex and force the enumeration with \begin{enumerate} [(a)]) It would be more productive to do it directly from LyX. Any suggestions? Staffan.
lyx on BeOs?
I have a question whether it is possible to use either precompiled packages that can be used on a system that works with BeOS, or how to compile the existing source code? If I am right, BeOs has some X functionality and the structure of the system is influenced by both *nix and Mac-systems. Yours sincerely, drs H.L.T.
