Hi,
The rtthesis class that I am using providied by the university is largely
based on book class and here goes the content of the corresponding .layout
file:
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
# \DeclareLaTeXClass[rtthesis]{rtthesis}
Format 49
# Input general definitions
Input stdclass.inc
Input numreport.inc
Sides 2
PageStyle Headings
Style Bibliography
TopSep 4
LabelString "Bibliography"
LabelFont
Series Bold
Size Huge
EndFont
End
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I can access the layout from the LyX interface and I can generate the pdf
as well once I set some the class options through
Documents->Settings->Document Class->Class Options->Custom:
"utf8,largesmallcaps,intlimits,widermath,sharecounter,nobreak,definition=marks,noparts,S5"
I tried to set the LaTex preamble to generate the front cover and this
where I am not able to generate it. It generates no error, it just generate
the same pdf output that I used to get without preamble:
///////////////////////////////////////////////////
\setupThesis{
author={Sajjadul},
title={Fractal Scanning Path },
city=Dhaka,
year=2016,
type=msc,
department=itn
}
//////////////////////////////////////////////////
Please let me know if you need any more information to address this issue.
Thanks
