Richard,
I read all of Section 5.2 on layouts. I used it to modify the
article.layout file to nagauth.layout, which is poor for nagauth.cls.
There are a tons of things being set in layout files, especially when you
drill down into stdclass.inc and its included .inc files.
In the linked file lyxmacros.inc the "Style Address" is noted. How can I
control the nagauth.cls \address definition be used {placing author
addresses right after the authors on the title page} and not the
\lyxaddress definition?
The same goes for "Style Abstract" in the stdstruct.inc file. How can I
force the abstract to happen on the title page right after the \address
content? nagauth.cls renames the 'abstract' to 'Summary' LyX output seems
to botch that renaming.
Why doesn't LyX just default to the .cls files definitions and abandon the
need for layout files?
I can patch .tex files after LyX export, but that gets tedious quick.
I am looking for a manual on the structure and meaning of all elements
used in layout files. Customization help file doesn't come close to that
need.
Best, Allen

The generic article.layout re-used for nagauth.layout file does not produce
a very compatible layout. It puts \maketitle command in the wrong place
with respect to author addresses (oddly defaulting to \lyaddress{}
alternative to the \address{} function in nagauth.cls) and the abstract.
There may be other anomalies as I progress in writing the paper.
I suspect that a proper .layout file would fix this.
Where can I find the language definitions used for creating .layout files?
Chapter 5 of the Customization manual. Feel free to ask lots of questions,
too, and I'd recommend looking through other layout files that perhaps work
more like this one.
