Dear LyX-peoples... I have a few questions concerning layout, typesetting and fonts. (I am using LyX 1.6.5 on Ubuntu 10.04)
I am in the planning stage of writing a music theory textbook (which will be Creative-Commons licensed!) and I am therefore using the "book" class in the Document Setting dialogue. It is easy for me to choose Helvetica and Utopia for my Sans Serif and Roman fonts, respectively, and I am more than happy with my choice. However, I would like to tweak a lot of these settings so that my headings are in the Sans font, and my content in the Roman font. Using the KOMA-script book class is not an option. I have been going through the Wiki and the built-in "Customization" documentation, but I have no skill in writing *.layout files. I have tried, but I cannot seem to do what I want to do. This also affects the page headers, which I want to look a certain way. Because LyX is based on LaTeX, I know that various layouts can be set. Is there someone who can direct me in the right way to learn how to change my settings the way I want them? I would really like to learn how to tweak these settings in a few hours rather than weeks learning complex LaTeX code. Thanks! Etienne
