enumeration style in lyx
Hi, is there a way to customize the enumeration style that's used by LyX for displaying enumerations? Note, that I'm not talking about the enumeration styles used in the produced document. I know how to change those. FWIW, I'm still using LyX 1.3.5. I'd prefer a way to do this via layout files because based on the enumerate or paralist packages I've created several styles for enumerations with different LatexParam, e.g. Enumeration_a_b_c with LatexParam a) to get a), b), c) like enums and Enumeration_i_ii_iii with LatexParam (i) to get (i), (ii), (iii) like enums. The only problem is that I didn't find a way to make LyX display the enumerations like they will appear in the produced document. Using Counter_EnumII or Counter_EnumIII instead of Counter_EnumI as LabelType didn't work because then LyX didn't display any labels at all. Alternatively, I could live for now with changing the default labels LyX uses for enums, i.e. I'd change the default label for depth 1 from (1) to a) and the default label for depth 2 from (a) to (i).

Hi all,
Forgive me for the newbie questions. I am working on a table with

used the multicolumn option, which is fine except that the
non-decimal rows are now aligned with the decimal places as the
center. However, most of my data is heavy toward the right of the
decimal (i.e. .0007, .095, .0634, etc.) Is there a way to align the
columns so that the decimal places are aligned but the decimal place
is not necessarily the center? (e.g. I want the whole value to be
centered so .012345 would be centered at between 2 and 3 instead of
at the decimal.
One possible solution might be to add phantom digits so that all
numbers are equally wide. To do this use the \phantom{} command, i.e.
write .0007\phantom{00}, .095\phantom{000}, etc.

I highly doubt this because the bug also occurs if one runs the exported
tex file through latex. I suspect babel to be the culprit. It doesn't
seem to be compatible with amsart. If you remove the "english" from
\documentclass and add it to \usepackage[english]{babel} then exactly
the same problem occurs, but if you remove \usepackage{babel} then the
problem disappears.

Remove \usepackage{babel} from the exported tex file. Maybe there's a
special option to make babel compatible with amsart or vice-versa.

Well, I've translated it from my German LyX back to English, but it's
actually Layout-Character. Under size you have several options.
If you want to have direct control over the font and don't want to write
your own class/style file then you could use something like the
following (to be inserted as ERT, i.e. TeX code) which I've used to
print some text in really huge letters on a poster:
\fontsize{42mm}{50mm}
\usefont{T1}{pag}{b}{n}
This sets the font size to 42 mm with 50 mm line spacing. The second
line changes the font. The general format is \usefont{fontencoding}
{fontfamily}{fontseries}{fontshape}.
If you only want to change the size then the following might work:
\fontsize{42mm}{50mm}
\selectfont
Of course, you should make sure that a scalable font is use, e.g. a
PostScript font. Otherwise you might not get the expected result.
FWIW, this information comes from The LaTeX Companion. IMO this book in
combination with some introduction to LaTeX is necessary to be able to
make best use of LyX. At least, I consult it quite often. I guess most
information can also be found on the net. So YMMV.

I think you are completely missing the point what LyX and LaTeX is all about. Just like with HTML in combination with CSS, LyX/LaTeX is mainly concerned with the contents. Unless you are a typographer you shouldn't have to worry about layouting a document. LyX/LaTeX will take care of this if you choose the right document class. If you want to do fancy stuff and want to have full control over the layout than you either have to use a lot of LaTeX code in LyX (via ERT) or you should use a word processor (like OpenOffice.org or MS Word) which doesn't help you with layouting but forces you to do all the layouting yourself (with the result of a much inferior layout to what LyX/LaTeX would create). > I think really I should just stick with Openoffice for writing. It is > much simpler to use for actual writing and producing forms. Except, > like I said, unless you want to do math formulae. Maybe for your special use case you are right. But in general you are completely mistaken. LyX/LaTeX can be used to typeset any kinds of documents. For example I write all my letters with LyX, because I never have to worry about correct spacing or placement of address, date, etc. LaTeX places everything at the correct spot (in my case following the German norm for letters).

Sharing layout files
Hi, since on one hand people are all the time asking for layouts for thisthat and on the other hand there are surely a lot of people who have already written their own layout files I'm wondering how we could share those layout files. Should we simply add our layout files to the LyX wiki (http://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/Layouts)? If yes, then why are there almost no layout files available? (I hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes by asking this question.) Is there a policy for adding layout files (e.g. only layout files which don't require homebrewn style or class files) which many homebrewn layout files probably don't comply with? Anyway, I'm just asking because the layout file(s) I've used for my thesis might be of general interest because they are for scrbook + ntheorem + enumerate. I've already sent them to the list a few days ago (at least I think I've sent them to the list) but it's probably easier for others to get them from the Wiki then from the list archive.
