Layout: ERT alignment yet again
Dear LyX Users and Developers, this is my first post, so to begin with: Hi to All! For those in a hurry or just interested in my actual question, please skip the next 2 paragraphs. I am a lecturer and typography hobbyist. I used many LaTeX editors in the past, including GNU Emacs+AUCTeX, Emacs+org-mode and Kile. I am using LyX now for an increasing number of projects. So in essence I am a LyX newcomer. Coming from Emacs I appreciate the nice builtin documentation. The examples and google searches often get me where I want. I already have a decent setup on my good old faculty machine: Windows XP, MiKTeX and LyX 2.0.4. So my actual question is essentially the same as has been asked on tex.stackexchange[1] and then on this ML[2]. I could not get ERT alignment to work as mentioned in the Answers. I have got the following in my Document Settings Local Layout: Format 35 InsetLayout ERT Align left Font Size Small EndFont End The 'Font' part works as expected, the 'Align' bit does not. I am at a loss. I already tried capitalisation and other ad-hoc trial-and-errors. Any hints? Thanks and Best Regards, Michael Bach [1] http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/75012 [2] http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/71456

Re: Layout: ERT alignment yet again
For reference, a workaround was suggested by Jürgen Spitzmüller. Style Plain_Layout Align Left Font Size Small EndFont End For me this suffices.
Re: Layout: ERT alignment yet again
This *may* be what you want: http://dcwww.camd.dtu.dk/~schiotz/comp/LatexTips/LatexTips.html#captfont As it describes a more global way of doing things, it may override (or be overridden by?) the local ERT at each inset. It's all a bit of waving a dead chicken at it to me, though, and I could be way off base. Still, hope it helps!

As far as I can see, your link points to general LaTeX advice on the actual typesetting of the captions. I use the caption package for this. For me, I wanted to have readable and visually different ERT and caption insets within the LyX GUI - thus alignment and font size questions. Maybe I am missing something, but for me these layout settings do not affect the pdf output. Please correct me if that is wrong / should / could be different. As I said, new to LyX. Cheers, Michael
