One thing that bothers me is how easy the users would screw up their
documents by using layout editor.
Consider this case: a document has fifty flex inserts named "beautiful
green". Using the layout editor, user who knows just a little about
layouts changes only the name of the flex, say to "old

Hi,
I'm not sure whether this has already been discussed.
I'd like to highlight that a layout editor project might have
as a side outcome the production of a LaTeX class file, to be
used even without LyX. That would make its scope & usefulness
even broader.

As from the subject, let me suggest applicants to add to the subject line the

I have decided to work on Horizontal scrollbar development for Lyx.
The basic process which I was able to figure out to complete the task is this:
1. Getting familiar with Lyx code and studying Qt.
2. Finding out methods to develop the scrollbar.
3. Beginning coding keeping poin
