Introduction of a parameterless command in a layout

1999-12-21 Thread Jean-Pierre.Chretien


Hello,

I did not manage to introduce a latex command without
parameters in a layout, to have in the style manu
instead of ERT.
Example:
Style  Foo
  LatexNamefoo
   ...
End

results in 
\foo{}
in the exported .tex file.
I'd like to have
\foo
without the {}

This not very easy indeed, but the {} should not matter if \foo does
not take parameters. What do you want to do exactly?

Sorry to have bothered you and the mailing list readers.
I misinterpreted an error message, \foo{} was all right.

You can use "KeepEmpty 1", but the empty {} will still exist. I doesn't
hurts. Example:

# Appendix style definition
Style Appendix
  MarginDynamic
  LatexType Command
  LatexName appendix
  NeedProtect   1
  NextNoIndent  1
  ParSkip   0.4
  TopSep4
  BottomSep 0.8
  ParSep0.8
  Align Block
  AlignPossible Block
  LabelType Static
  KeepEmpty 1
  LabelString   "Appendix"

  # standard font definition
  Font 
Series  Bold
SizeLarge
Color   Blue
  EndFont
End

One thing I'd like to see in LyX is the support for optional parameters
like in

\chapter[Name in toc]{Long, long, long name}

Currently it is possible tu use a trick in the layout setting LabelType to
"Manual".  Other interesting feature would be commands with more than one
parameter like

\foo{bar}{baz}
