Re: Preventing newline after a LatexType = Command line
Hmm... In the meanwhile is it at least possible to allow the Insert Short title command even in LyX environments set as PassThru? IMHO one should still be able to insert arguments in this case. Right now I have to hack it by copying and pasting an opt field from somewhere else.

Re: Preventing newline after a LatexType = Command line
Actually I did not mean this as a patch, but as something that I don't
quite understand why it should not work. For example I the following
environment declared in my layout file:
Style Entry
LatexType Command
LatexName cventry
LabelString (years; title; institution; location; grade; description):
ParbreakIsNewline 1
PassThru1
RequiredArgs5
End
However in the Lyx editor I am unable to insert the 5 arguments
because the Insert Short title command is disabled. It's not
enough for me to type for example the line {a}{b}{c}{d}{e}rest in
Lyx, because this then generates the Latex output:
\cventry{}{}{}{}{}{{a}{b}{c}{d}{e}rest}
which is not what I want. Or am I doing something wrong?

I do not think it should be possible to insert arguments in this case :)
PassThru is for verbatim text that is not evaluated by LaTeX. Passing macros
or arguments there does not make much sense...
Of course, when the layout file specifies it explicitly, it may be argued
that it should work.
I am reluctant to add this feature just to work around an unrelated bug.

I tried that already, but it doesn't seem to work in Lyx v2.0.0.

Is it possible to use just ParBreakIsNewline, without PassThru? If not,
then that is a bug, I think.
