multi paragraph inside a command
I created a style in my local layout that has "LatexType Command".
Is it possible to allow the user to insert multiple lines of text inside this
command?
Something like the option MultiPar 1 (which is good only for InsetLayout Flex,
not for Style.)
What I want is to get the following Latex code:
\mycommand{Lorem ipsum
〈¶〉
dolor
〈¶〉
sit amet}--

Hello ehud,
I don't know if it can be done in lyx, but i can suggest a workaround for
that (of course it is only
valid if your command is long in the first place).
You can set your style to be of "Latex TypeEnvironment" and create an
environment
that passes its body to \mycommand.
To do that, add to your style definition the following:
LatexNamemyenv
Preamble
\newcommand\mycommand[1]{}
\usepackage{environ}
\NewEnviron{myenv}{\mycommand{\BODY}}
EndPreamble
Note that with some commands it wont work due expansion order of \BODY,
so you might need to write
LatexNamemyenv
Preamble
\newcommand\mycommand[1]{}
\usepackage{environ}
\NewEnviron{myenv}{\expandafter\mycommand\expandafter{\BODY}}
EndPreamble
instead.
Hope it helps,
Udi

I like Udi's solution a lot better, but you can linefeed with
\\[measurement] .

that should be used only in tabulars or arrays, not in the default text
area.
Use \par, \smallskip, \medskip, \bigskip, or \vspace{...} instead
