Hi all,

I'd like have my LyX style pass arguments to the LaTeX environment named in 
its "latex name". However, I can't get it to work. What would be the syntax 
for the LaTeX style, and how would my LyX style call it?

For instance, this doesn't work:

\newenvironment{whiteargs}[2]%
  {%
  ~\\[#1]%
  ~\\[#2]%
  \setlength{\widthchange}{-2in}%
  \setlength{\minipagewidth}{\textwidth}%
  \addtolength{\minipagewidth}{\widthchange}%
  \hspace{-0.5\widthchange}%
  \begin{minipage}[]{\minipagewidth}%
  \begin{bfseries}%%
  \begin{center}Author's Note\\%
  \end{center}%
  \begin{tiny}%%
  \setlength\parindent{16pt}%%
  ~\\[-.2in]
  }%
  {%
  \par
  \end{tiny}%
  \end{bfseries}%
  \end{minipage}%
  }%



# %%% BottomNote Environment
Style BottomNote
  LatexType             Environment
  LatexName             whiteargs[1in, 3in]
### rest of this environment style is left out for clarity
End


What syntax mistakes have I made as far as passing the 1 inch and 3 inch 
arguments, both in the LyX style and in the LaTeX environment? Please don't 
worry about the uselessness of having both arguments skip space in the same 
place -- this is just a proof of concept.

Thanks
