I have a document which uses French and English. The language selected for the document is French; some passages are in English. However, in the DVI file, all the headings are in English.

Looking at the LaTeX file, I see that in the \documentclass command, french and english are listed, with french last. Later, there is a \usepackage{babel}.

However, I cannot find any documentation on using languages as options to \documentclass like this. The rule for using them with \usepackage{babel} is to list the "base" language last, i.e. for me

\usepackage[english,french]{babel}

If I use this command and remove the languages from the \documentclass command, I get the output as expected with the headings in French (when running latex manually, of course).

It looks as though something is wrong in LyX here...but I'm a bit surprised because it seems so obvious.
