Re: Multiple Choice Tests
Hi there, thanks for your quick answers. I'll take Uwe's Kreuzeltest-Solution and use the frameboxes. Should be enough for me, since i only have to do a short test with 15 questions for my class. If you're interested, I found this on ctan : http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/examdesign.html But this seems to be quite old and i didn't get LyX to notice the document class.

Re: pdf metadata
Yes ther is. Here is an example preamble sequence to get this:
% link all cross references and URLs in pdf output
\usepackage[colorlinks=true, bookmarks, bookmarksnumbered,
bookmarksopen,
linkcolor=black, citecolor=black, urlcolor=blue, filecolor=blue,
pdfpagelayout=OneColumn, pdfnewwindow=true,
pdfstartview=XYZ, plainpages=false, pdfpagelabels,
pdfauthor={LyX Team}, pdftex,
pdftitle={LyX's Table Manual},
pdfsubject={LyX-documentation about tables},
pdfkeywords={LyX}]{hyperref}
thanks for help. however hyperref causes that number of
tex errors pop up during latex compilation.
finally i made script using pdftk, which adds metadata
to completed pdf.

And in LyX, you can enter it directly with, for instance
Alt-x accent-macron a
(where Alt-x opens the mini-buffer).

Some classes (I know this from the Springer LNCS article class) don't
like the hyperref redefinitions for implicit hyperlinks. However, in
such cases hyperref can still be used to tag the PDF metadata, just
pass it an implicit = false as option.
The following is an example snipped from my preamble in such cases (it

Is it possible to create a multi-paragraph description in LyX, the same

The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented.
This is another paragraph under the Para item.

Yes. Enter the description, start a new paragraph, set the environment
to either Standard (for a paragraph) or Itemize (for a bullet list),
type madly, then increase the depth of the paragraph (Edit-Increase
List Depth, M-S-right or the appropriate tool bar button, which has a

Installing new doc types?
