Hello, new to Lyx etc.
I am on Kubuntu Dapper, using Lyx 1.5.1 (I installed it from a .deb).
I am using the memoir class because I am laying out poetry and I have
managed to get it more-or-less the way I want it from the memman.pdf
document. (Perhaps there's a better way to layout poems, but that'

Okay, it would help me - I want to line-up the heading of the poem
with the left edge of text (when a poem is l
Hi,
(I post with trepidation; having searched the wiki -- I promise.)
I am setting poems with this kind of approach (using memoir class.)

\poemtitle{Blah}

Line 2 \\
Line 3 \\

Hello again,
How could I shift the left edge (margin?) of the verse environment
across to the right? I would like to have it further across the page.
I'm not sure what class is the best for setting verse. Memoir seems to
work, but each poem is oddly staggered left and right.
Ideally, I want:

Les,
I have been using that manual all along. If that's the best that Lyx &
Co. can do for my layout needs, then I really am doomed. I don't want
to learn latex right now, it's just a learning-curve too far for me.
Forget poetry -- how would you inset a block of text (and it's
subsection title) so
Bennet -
Thanks a million for that file. It comes hot on the heels of
Christian's advice about a minipage and from the looks of things it's
a winner! I'm closing OpenOffice right now!

Hello again,
I have attached a sample file.
The problem is explained within, but to precis:
1. I want roman numeral numbering up to the TOC, thereafter I want
normal numbering.
2. I want the SECTIONs to not be numbered, but to appear in the TOC
This file, on my system, is numbering the SECTION on
Forget it - I found an answer on:
http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/RomanPageNumbering
Once again, I had searched the wiki for "Roman numerals" -- to no avail.
If I had tried "mainmatter", it would have worked.
I got to it from google with "lyx numbering frontmatter mainmatter"

Hello,
I have tried to find and answer to this, but it's a tough one to phrase.
I have a toc that varies as I add and remove subsections. I want the
final output to have Chapter one begin on a recto (right hand) page.
I am using memoir, and I don't know how to tell the toc to ensure it
adds a bla
Aw man,
Just on the verge of seeing my work almost done and I get this error
message. No google, no lyx wiki help either.
It says "Tek capacity exceeded [input stack size = 1500]".
It happens when I insert a page break. I have several in the file, but
not over 20 of them. Also the file is < 100K in
Okay - I don't have a choice but to hack around. I'm busy now, pulling
stuff out and testing.

To summarize : Desire a single blank page after TOC if TOC is on the recto page.
Situation: The TOC was just long enough to be reaching the bottom of
the recto page, but not quite. The Chapter following would be "glued"
to the TOC without a blank page between them., thus it would appear on
the ver
Magic. Compiled and running on Kubuntu 6.06 - what a pleasure.
Thanks for the code!
