Re: geometry package not working...
Hem, :-( I didn't check my preambule... I had letterpaper as an option for package hyperref, so invoking legal size in the paper size box was a bad mixture! LyX was'nt wrong! Raymond -- Édité et transmis avec des logiciels libres sous Linux !

Works in fix3 if there's a space between the digit and the unit (e.g., "1.5 in"). Rich Dr. Richard B. Shepard, President Applied Ecosystem Services, Inc.

Well, that's not very explicit for someone who dont know latex, but you have to put a unit with your number. If you put: Top: 2 This wont work But it will work with: Top: 2mm Top: 2cm Top: 2em Etc... (I guess any valid TeX unit can be used). Dont put any space between the number and the unit (it wont work, I think from my TeX experience). I dont think that you need to activate the 'geometry' package to have this working. Hope it helps Yannick PS: A long time ago, I read that this part of the interface was about to be rewritten with an explicit pop-up menue for units... Did I dreamed ?
