Let me start with a big thanks to all of the developers and users of Lyx. I
have been using it for nearly exclusively for 15 years or more. Ever since
FrameMaker got purchased by Adobe I have been using Lyx.
Lyx works so well that I have never had to learn LaTeX or TeX. I have been
through the documentation a couple of times and have been through the WIKI
too. I almost always get my answers there, but sometimes I have to resort to
google. In this case, they have all failed and I finally have to post. Well,
I do not remember every posting before.
Currently I am trying to write a paper and it comes with this request:
Latex users: please use \documentclass[conference, compsocconf]{IEEEtran}
(with option 'compsocconf').
Since Lyx works so well and I have never had to learn LaTeX, I have no idea
what they are asking. I poked around Lyx and the documentation and have not
convinced myself that I have found the correct thing to do.
1) Is there some place (pull down menu or dialog box) that I am supposed to
enter this option and Lyx will do the rest?
2) If I have to do ERT, then were does the ERT go and should I start with a
base document or the IEEE template?
3) Some other lower level trick?
Thanks in advance for any and all help.
