Hi,
I am writing a dissertation using lyx 1.44. I am using the "book"
document class. I have a problem formatting the page numbers the
correct way. The first page of the first chapter of the body should be
number one. Page numbers should appear on all pages in the body. (I
have no problem numbering the body). Secondly, there should be no
numbers on any of the pages preceding the body. (I have trouble with
removing the page numbers, specifically from the first page of a
section). At the beginning of the document I use the command
"\frontmatter" and "\pagestyle{empty}. Before each section such as the
table of contents and list of figures I use the command
"\thispagestyle{empty}". Before the body of the document I use the
commands "\mainmatter" and "\pagestyle{plain}".
The result is that the first page of table of contents, list of
tables, etc. has a roman numeral. If those sections have more than one
page the subsequent pages have no numbers. The first page of chapter 1
is numbered with a arabic 1, and all the subsequent pages are numbered
correctly. Does anyone know why "\thispagestyle{empty} does not work in
the "frontmatter"?
Thanks,
Chris
