I use version 1.5 of the cv document class by Jean-Marc Lasgouttes,
which I believe is included with LyX 1.1.6fix3.

I want to change the margin of the topic environment so that the
description is only slightly indented compared to the label. I use
the following in the preamble:

  \renewcommand{\topicmargin}{0.05\textwidth}

to override the default value of '0.20\textwidth'.

I want to change from the default:

...
Some Section

  1999-2000  Some employment
             More text about this employment.
...

to this:

...
Some Section

  1999-2000  Some employment
     More text about this employment.
...

The problem is that the indentation of the label is also changed,
so I end up with this:

...
Some Section

1999-2000  Some employment           <-- This margin also changed!
   More text about this employment.
...
