Puitting other things on title page

2007-06-30 Thread Nathan Russell
Hi, On the title page of my thesis I want to have title, author, and then some other stuff (for example the names of my committee members). However, if I put anything in standard format after the title and author, it puts it on the next page. How do I override this? Thanks much Nathan

You don't really need lots of ERT's for simple stuff. I as well use "notitlepage" for the document, and make everything myself via large fonts, vfills and hfills from within lyx. It comes out fine. Miki "Steve Litt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > On Saturday 30 Ju

I guess I'm somewhat confused. Even when I use notitlepage in the class settings options, it still requires a title or it gives a latex error. With a title, most of the stuff ends up pushed to the second page, and it's not clear how to keep that from happening. I'm sorry, I'm sure I'm missing s

Thanks much Alan. After looking at that, it appears that the problem was that I was trying to specify an author, date and other things *but not* a title. So I removed the other things, and now it's just a matter of messing around to make it look right. Nathan
