You are right, I forgot to mention it.
As you can not have parameters in LyX layouts, I modified the layout:
Style Author1
CopyStyle Author
LatexParam [inst1]
End
Style AuthorAddress1
CopyStyle AuthorAddress
LatexParam [inst1]
End
(I had to change Author_Address to AuthorAddress. It does not work with
CopyStyle! lyx announce it does not know Author_Address but 'Author Address'
which does not work eather. AuthorAddress is safe enough.)
Same for the second author. This does what I want with the flaw of inserting
too many newlines after the \author and \address commands.

Yeah. It seems to me that each Style = new paragraph.
Configurable options are: textclass, classoption, paragraph layouts.
But there is probably no way to customize a text property like \emph which is
the way how \author is used in elsevier's style.
We are then trying to describe the Author field in Elsevier's style as
"paragraph that is actualy not a paragraph". :)

I tried to use ERT but I had to define
Style StandardInTitle
CopyStyle Standard
InTitle 1
End
because of \frontmatter.
Well, it is a way around, but not too nice though.
Thanks,
