Hello,
Can some one tell me where to put a .cls file so that lyx (2.3) can find it?
I’m using Tex-live on a Mac (OS10.13.4). I have the Copernicus style files
(.cls, in particular). But lyx can’t seem to find it. I’ve put them in the
folder with the document and have also tried to put them in a couple of places
in the texmf installation. I’ve used used ‘texhash’ in the terminal and
‘reconfigure’ in lyx. But lyx still complains and uses a fairly useless default.
I’ve also, in lyx, gone into Document Settings and tried to point to the file,
but lyx doesn’t seem to recognize the file as something it can read, so I
haven’t been able to select it.
Thanks very much!

In order to use a class file, LyX needs to have a layout file for the
class. The layout file is unique to LyX, telling it how to translate
class constructs into the GUI. I just looked in the directory of layout
files that come with LyX and did not see any names that screamed
"Copernicus" to me. Do you have a layout file (.layout extension) for it?
