(Your MWE included the image but the graphic path was an absolute path on your system.) * I changed the top right y value. You can go a bit smaller than what I put in, but not much. Note that this screws up the preview in the LyX window, but as you can see the image looks okay in the PDF output. * There was still more whitespace above the logo than seemed reasonable to me, which is likely some KOMA setting. I don't use KOMA, so I cheated and stuck in some negative vertical space above the image. Feel free to adjust or omit. * This gets the image, title and date on the same page, but the content still starts on page 2. Again, that's probably a KOMA thing. Paul, It's an issue with lyx-2.3.3 on the Ryzen7 desktop. See the PDF in the attached tarball. (I recompiled and reinstalled the application but it made no difference.) Looking at the .lyx file I saw the page size in the preamble still at 6.5" width x 9.5" height despite the setting having the US Letter box checked and the other values greyed out. I removed those values and the lyx file preamble now shows paperletter for the size. I also removed the custom margins (despite the 'use default' checkbox being checked) and now I don't see specific margins in the .lyx file The compiled PDF has the letterhead, title, author, date, and introduction all on page 1. But, the text width and height are those of a 6" x 9" book layout, not letter size layout. I'm not seeing the reason why.

I've copied an older beamer document to a new name to keep the framework and change the content. It's the way my presentations maintain a consistent appearance. On existing frame titles there is a cute, curly-tailed arrow at the end, outside the title frame text (see attached image). Newly created frames lack this decoration. Is it an anachronism?

There are packages that allow to define a default command for each section, so you can automate the math version switch. If you are using the KOMA-Script document classes, see their documentation for details. Hope this helps, Günter

Re: Seperate Page for the Document Title and Abstract
Hello Aaron, I feel this is your first document produced with LyX and thus would recommend you to first of all try a template that is not too complicated yet *providing a rich set of predefined standards* (which I feel you may need), e. g. KOMA-Script Article or KOMA.Script Report. File > New > Document > Settings > Document Class and then select either one of the two above KOMA-Script Classes from the list. In LyX open the Standard drop-down menu (top left) and see if the predefined settings shown in the drop-down list do suit your needs.
