Hi,

I am looking for a way to use the AGUjournal.cls for AGU's journal Space Weather within a Lyx Template. The latest version of their latex class was updated on 2016-11-03.

The Lyx template for AGU journals seems to use the now outdated AGUTeX.cls which doesn't have a journal class option for Space Weather.

AGU publish several journals with the same .cls file. From what I acn gather the journal name should be specified for the old AGUTex Lyx template in the Document Settings>Document Class>Class options as a code i.e.:jgrga. For the new AGUjournal.cls this is done in the LaTeX switch \journalname{Space Weather}.

Strangely, the Lyx template for an AGUTex paper provides a link to http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/AGUTeXwhich tells us to download the newer AGUjournal.cls from https://publications.agu.org/files/2016/11/agu-template-updated-20161103.zip then the instructions for Linux on the wiki say to copy the outdated agutex.cls file to a location. This zip file doesn't contain the agutex.cls file because it is outdated. It was easy to modify these instructions to copy the newer AGUjournal.cls but this has left me wondering if I've done something wrong.

Is there a Lyx template that uses the latest AGUjournal class? Or is there some way to use it?

I'm using Lyx 2.1.4 on Ubuntu 16.04.

Thanks in advance.

Tim

PS: I'm a huge fan of Lyx, I used it to write my PhD thesis and am very grateful to the community that wrote it. Thank you.
