Thanks a lot. The layout file works fine. The template needed a few changes to work correctly with lyx 1.1. (Yes, I'm still using and loving lyx 1.1.6fix4.) I had one little hiccup when converting a standard article to elsart. Lyx does not insert the required StartTitlePage before title and EndTitlePage before main text (start and end frontmatter), so these have to be entered manually. Took me a few minutes to figure this one out. The only ERT I needed to complete my preprint was \ead (email address), \PACS and \sep which is required between keywords and PACS codes. I suppose if one needs to use the optional key/label fields with \author, \collab, \address, \thanks, \corauth the frontmatter might get a bit ugly with lots of ERT. Is there a way to incorporate these in the layout? I think it might be tricky because they're kind of new types of cross-references.
