Thanks J�rgen, As long as: 1. I can recognize each style looks different from the others in the LyX program, and 2. The style renders correctly in the outputted postscript As long as the preceding 2 things are true, I'm quite happy. Before, I was using Dekl's color workaround, in which the only in-LyX evidence of the style was a different color. So I'm accustomed to in-LyX styles not looking like they will on paper.
