Sorry if I'm asking a question to which there is an obvious answer...

How can I get LyX to use \prettyref from the prettyref.sty package rather than the usual \ref when I export to latex? I have \usepackage{prettyref} in the preamble, but that doesn't seem to be enough.

Ah, OK, I was missing the obvious - choosing "Formatted Reference" as the format in the Cross-reference dialog does the job. However, after all that I suspect I really want the \autoref command from the hyperref.sty package. The reason is that I am editing material from different authors together into a single document, so I want to be free to rearrange things without having to review the text which accompanies the use of cross references.

So my question should have been - how can I get lyx to always export using \autoref rather than \ref, or alternatively, is there any magic I can use in the preamble to achieve the same result?
