I tried using the command \pagestyle in the preamble and it didn't work. Using the page layout in Document > Settings didn't work either.
I even tried removing everything else from the preamble, but it always use the plain style (header is empty and footer contains only the page number, which is shown only on the first page of every part or chapter) Cheers, Fabio.
