Hi Jose,
A good starting point for this is: https://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/CreatingLayouts
Referring this page: If you are a beginner, a simple layout file in the form of
#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
# \DeclareLaTeXClass[acmsiggraph]{ACM SigGraph}
# Read the definitions from article.layout
Input article.layout
will suffice. You will be putting many information into preamble and in the
main file using ERT. You will do several try-and-errors to make it work, but if
you are careful, this should be at most one days of work for beginners (this is
my experience). Please note that class-specific styles, environments and
commands will not be immediately available under LyX menus and options.
However, they will work in the preamble and in the main file by ERT.
Also, Section 5.3 of the Customization document under LyX help has both on
introductory and advanced information on layouts. If you have time, placing the
class-specific styles, environments and other commands into the LyX menus
should not be that difficult. Look at some layout files that come with LyX and
try-and-error with Section 5.3.7 and other sections of the Customization file.
Good Luck.

typos in koma-letter2.lyx template preamble can cause errors
I've been working on learning more about KOMAScript classes and found a problem with the preamble that comes with the LyX koma-letter2 template (and has for some time). The preamble has a number of options in the \KOMAoptions section, including these lines: %pagenumber=botcenter% position of the page number (see docu) %,parskip=false% Use indent instead of skip (more options cf. docu) fromalign=center%alignment of the address The problem is that the first and third lines of this excerpt from the preamble lack leading commas (the KOMAoptions are comma delimited). If you uncomment the parskip option by removing the leading % then it gets parsed together with the fromalign option (because fromalign lacks a leading comma) and generates an 'undefined control sequence' error. Another confusion is that 'parskip=false' is the default for this document class. If you want a block style letter with no indents and a space between paragraphs you need to change this option to 'parskip=true'. -- Rich

Hi John, This message means that the LaTeX document class needed by the layout is not available. You can install these using the MikTeX package manager. Simply search for the required package name and then click on install. Once you have installed the needed LaTeX packages, then you can reconfigure LyX and things should work.

When switching to LyX, the ability to make myself a CV was a primary
requirement. For me, there are at least two viable solutions to this:
- modernCV [1]
- CV based on the article class [2]
I have ("heavily") modified the latter, so that to render it more like
what I wanted. I you're interested, I could send you my version. You
would also be interested in inspecting this [3] page.

lyx template wanted: journal or conference abstracts
Hello, a quick question: Is there a template for Lyx preparing journal or conference abstracts? Sometimes we write abstracts for conference presentation before the articles are written or the presentation is approved to be held. Therefore, just taking the article class and use the environments author, title, date, abstract wouldn't help. Often, these abstracts need to fit on one page (1x DIN A4). So far, I found this: http://journals.iucr.org/f/services/latexstyle.html Thanks in advance for your input, Timmie

Not easily. g-brief is not our package, we cannot simply change it (the LPPL, the license of the package, allows changes only if the file is distributed under a different name, e.g. g-brief-lyx.cls). However, in the documentation of g-brief, the developer states that even if he will not add any new features to the old g-brief class (in favour of g-brief2), he is still willing to fix bugs.

sorry for not answering earlier-had been on a two week hollieday.
your proposed solution worked for me. but still I think that g-brief
should work out of the box for any lyx user. what can be done about it?
could the "Telefon" variable in g-brief be changed into something unique?
But that probably breaks older files.lyx based on g-brief...

Here's the problem. My version uses
\def\Telefon{\mvchr{84}}
which overrides g-brief's definition silently, while \newcommand results in an
error, if the macro is already defined.[1]
I guess this has been done by default, in order to "inform" the user that a
file definition is overridden.
The easiest fix is probably to replace the \newcommand by \def. This keeps the
Symbol available in principle (for other apllications).

[1] The procedure goes as follows:
1. gbrief defines \Telefon

I am using the absolute latest lyx 1.4.2 and miktex after a complete and clean reinstall with the standard lyx 1.4.2 installer for windows. It did not work after this install, so I updated the Miktex with the miktex package updater on 14.august.2006. The g-brief-de still did not work. By the way, my g-brief has the same version (4.0.1) at least according to the releasenotes and dates of the files. why does this Marvosym \Telefon bugfix in g-brief-de not work for me anymore?

Re: standard Lyx template/example does not work (?)
Thanks for the fast reply,
The suggested solution worked perfect!
PLEASE NOTE HOWEVER that the name of the file is "marvosym.sty" (in
windows standard installation it rests in C:\texmf\tex\latex\marvosym\)
and NOT "mavrosym.sty" as mentioned in the other Mail (probably a typo)
...I only found out because the second time I searched for the file I
made the 'right' typo myself...
I have two more questions though:
1) How would I figure out that the error comes from marvosym.sty, as it
is not mentioned in the errormessage?
2) Will this problem be resolved with future versions of miktex or lyx?
Because after all it comes as a template with the lyx installation and
thus should work "out of the box".
thanks again

may be this is not lyx but TeX error. (I use the last Miktex WinXP)
mavrosym.sty (2006/05/11 v2.1) defines

this stops latex every time using g-brief with errors when running

I would recommend for mavrosym.sty to change "Telefon" to "Telefone"!

You can't just turn it off, because the opening command does not only the
opening, but invokes also all other stuff in the letter (headings, foldmarks
etc.).
One solution: instead of an actual opening phrase, write
\vspace*{-3\baselineskip} (in ERT) into the opening line (you might want to
adjust the length, which shrinks the distance by 3 lines in the example).
You can save this as a template for your letters.

If it is only the references you can use the ijmp layout and use the abbrv for
your bibtex references.

However, if you want to make a layout file for ACS you can do that offcourse.
Download and install the the ws-acs.cls in your latex tree. Run texhash (if
you use tetex). Copy your (your path may
vary) /usr/local/share/lyx/layout/ijmpd.layout
to /usr/local/share/lyx/layout/ws-acs.layout and change the second line from
# \DeclareLaTeXClass[ws-ijmpd]{article (ijmpd)}
to
# \DeclareLaTeXClass[ws-acs]{article (ws-acs)}
save the file. Run reconfigure in LyX from Edit->reconfigure and restart Lyx
and chose article(ws-acs).
This should work if there are no other differences between the two. But I have
not tried, so no guarantees :).

It works for me (LyX 3.1.3 on Debian Linux). Lets see:
The scrlttr2.layout starts with
#LyX 1.3 created this file. For more info see http://www.lyx.org/
\lyxformat 221
\textclass scrlttr2
\begin_preamble
also scrlttr2 is the layout file. Looking there we find
#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
# \DeclareLaTeXClass[scrlttr2]{letter (koma-script v.2)}
# KOMA scrlettr2 textclass definition file.
# Juergen Spitzmueller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, 2003/2/17.
ok.
Maybe your scrlttr2.layout file reeds
# \DeclareLaTeXClass[scrlettr2]{letter (koma-script v.2)}
in the second line? Change the [scrlettr2] to [scrlttr2] and try again.
(If you are on Unix/Linux, copy scrlttr2.layout to ~/.lyx/layouts and change
there).
