[LyX] Keep enumeration across subsections?

Hi All, How can I preserve the ongoing numbering of the "Enumerate" environment across subsections? I am writing a tutorial, which is a "step-by-step" guide through some functions of some software. Since the sequence of actions is of some importance, the "Enumerate" environment is perfect here

Automatic formatting of a particular word?

Hi again, Yet another question ... I am currently writing a manual for some software, and I would like the name of the software to appear automagically in a particular typesetting, i.e. without the need for special markup in the text of the document (not unlike the proper names of "LyX" and "

"LyX-Code" and "Typewriter" environment: how to change the font?

Hi, How does one change the font that is used (a) for the "LyX-Code" environment, (b) for "typewriter" character markup? I would like to modify the font size, and/or eventually change the font for these two completely. Maybe I have searched in the wrong places ;-), but I have not found an answ

LyX and "listings": code is double-spaced when I use copy/paste?

Dear All, I have a weird problem formatting source code ... using "listings" and LyX 1.3.6 on a (no ... several ;-) Linux systemS. If I use the \lstinputlisting directive (i.e. importing a file directly), everything works as intended. Fine. If I take the same code and copy/paste it in a piece

Problem converting from LyX 1.1.x to 1.3.5

Dear All, I have a problem with an "old" LyX file (created with LyX 1.1.x; it says "\lyxformat 218") that generates lots of error messages. To reproduce: (1) Download and unpack . (2) Open doc/msgman21.lyx (it

Q: Define shading (or frame) for all floats in a LyX document?

Dear All, I'm currently writing a long document with a number of table floats (actually they contain code snippets). I would like to put a frame around those, and/or use a shaded background. Note that I'm not looking for individually shaded cells - I want the _whole_ float to have a shaded bac

Fax template?

Dear All, Does anyone have a "generic" fax template that can be used easily with LyX ? I've been searching this for a while, but all I found were some very "dedicated" LaTeX classes, mostly for universities. What I would like to obtain is something like this: http://www.mysunrise.ch/users/

Redefining figure and table header fonts and placement

Dear All, I'm frequently using the "article" and "book" class to write technical documents, but I would like to change two things: - redefine figure and table headers so that they still use the base font, but in a slightly smaller size and in italic. - redefine the spacing between a table h

Letter: Swiss layout?

Dear All, Sorry if this is a FAQ, but ... using the "dinbrief" or "g-brief" layout to write a letter, how can I change the indenting of the "send to" address? The reason is that Swiss envelopes (those with a transparent address window) need the address to be located at ca. 12 cm from the lef
