Hi, I'm trying to write a multipart document and want to use some macros for math formulae, picture placements and so on. If I define them in the preamble of the master document, lyx can't find them if I try to use them in an included document. Of course, I'd like to have them in one single place. I've searched in the mailing list archive, and found something I thought it might help in this thread http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=lyx-users&m=102747712134799&w=2 but it didn't actually. I tried to write my macros in such a separate file and include that one with the "\select{}" command mentioned in that thread, but I'm obviously doing something wrong. I'm not sure I used that hint in a correct way, how exactly should such include code look like. Should the macros be in the preamble or in some ERT section of the file mentioned in that thread? Or is there another (better) solution? Colleagues of mine who wrote their thesis in plain LaTeX just wrote their macros in the preamble of the main latex document and could use them in the included ones. I'm new to LyX AND to LaTeX, but I've read the docs and I think I didn't find such a tweaky thing. Can someone knowledgeable help me out, please?
Thanks in advance, Lucian
