First, thanks to everyone involved with LyX. I'm finishing up my thesis,
and regardless of the content, people have been impressed with the nice
headers. I've also had pretty good luck importing figures from a variety
of sources: gnuplot, xmgrace, xfig (had to make paths absolute in the
.pstex_t file and remember to start with `xfig -specialtext'), FAST, etc.
Now it's time for me to do the "approval page". This involves several
horizontal lines where committee members will (hopefully) sign. I checked
out CU-Thesis-Template.lyx already, and it wasn't much help. Also,
I tried importing someone else's latex file. The lines aren't quite
right, and I don't understand the latex well enough to make it work (it
seems like just a couple of "hspace"s and "vspace"s create the lines!?).
I've begun experimenting with \rule{10cm}{.5pt} and lines above paragraphs
in minipages (is it possible to right align a minipage - the minipage
that is, not the contents of the minipage?) So I'm wondering if anyone
else has had success/experience/trials&tribulations with lines in LyX.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Jamie
