Hi Martin,
unfortunately it doesn't work. Both on Windows (1.5.3) and on Linux (1.5.5) the
following layout failed.
----
Format 4
CharStyle ChemFormula
LatexType Command
LatexName BPChem
PassThru 1
LabelFont
Family Roman
Color Red
EndFont
Preamble
\usepackage{BPChem}
EndPreamble
End
---
Error Message in both cases were:
Setting debug level to 1024
Debugging `tclass' (Textclass files reading)
LyXSetStyle: parsing configuration...

Einstellungen/heidemei/Anwendungsdaten/lyx15/textclass.lst'

Is there a restricted attribute set for CharStyles in 1.5.x ?
BTW the 1.5 distribution does not contain a stdinsets.inc layout file.
TNX and greetings
