Hi there,

I'm trying to figure out what the margins in 1.6.0RC4 are meaning. I found this:

picture: http://labmaster.mi.infn.it/wwwasdoc.web.cern.ch/wwwasdoc/TL8/texmf/doc/html/polish/latex2e/macro/geom1.png

I only have the german version, so the english labels could be different. So there are seven different margins that I can change via Document->Properties->Margin.

1) Lyx: "top" (german: oben); sourceview: "tmargin"; picture: "top"
2) Lyx: "bottom" (german: unten); sourceview: "bmargin"; picture: "bottom"
3) Lyx: "inside" (german: innen); sourceview: "lmargin"; picture: "left"
4) Lyx: "outside" (german: außen); sourceview: "rmargin"; picture: "right" 5) Lyx: "distance to head" (german: abstand zum kopf); sourceview: "headsep"; picture: "headsep" 6) Lyx: "height of head" (german: kopfzeilenhöhe); sourceview: "headheight"; picture: "headheight" 7) Lyx: "distance to foot" (german: abstand zum fuß); sourceview: "footskip"; picture: "footskip"

Am I right with this?

More or less, yes, though I'm not sure about (7). These settings just pass options to the geometry package, so check that package's documentation for the details.
footskip is:

distance separation between baseline of last line of text and baseline of footer


where footer itself isn't definied, as far as I can see. This settings doesn't make any sense to me, why is there a setting "bottom" and a setting "footskip"? Can anyone give me an example for the use of footskip?
