Hi all, In my local layout (thanks for local layouts), I've added an environment that is supposed to be just like the Standard environment except that it leaves about 1.5 lineheights after itself.
So it looks like this: Style Lastpara CopyStyle Standard LatexType Environment LatexName lastparaL BottomSep 1.0 End And the LaTeX part of it, lastparaL, is defined in the preamble part of the layout, like this: \newenvironment{lastparaL}[0]{\begin{Standard}} {\end{Standard}\\[10ex]} When I try to pdflatex it, I get this error: LaTeX Error: Environment Standard undefined That surprises me, seeing as the vast majority of paragraphs in my book look like this when Vimming my LyX file: \begin_layout Standard In 2000 he bought a small strip-mall with nine stores. Finally his real estate holdings paid enough to provide him with a good salary over and above paying their loan payments. This was the world of my childhood. \end_layout Sure looks like a layout called "Standard" to me. A couple things to keep in mind: 1) My layout file Inputs stdclass.inc at the top 2) Symptom remains the same whether the LaTeX goes in the preamble at the beginning of the layout file, or in the LyX style definition itself with a Preamble/EndPreamble pair. What am I missing here? Thanks SteveT Steve Litt Author: The Key to Everyday Excellence http://www.troubleshooters.com/bookstore/key_excellence.htm Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/stevelitt
