It is a new feature, and you have encountered a bug that I think I have fixed. (I would appreciate it if you can see if the problem persists with the latest development version such as http://www.lyx.org/~bpeng/LyX-1.5.4svn-2008-01-04-Installer.exe ). Begin with lyx 1.5.0, local, meaning in the same directory with the document, style file (.sty, .cls) and layout (.layout) file can be used directly by a document. You can not create such a document in lyx (unless you modify a .lyx file directly) because local .layout does not show up in the style list, but if you send your document, along with your layout and .cls file to your co-authors, they do not have to install anything to open and modify your file. This feature is not well-publicized because it is a precursor to a 'bundle' feature (due 1.6.0) with which you can bundle figures, layouts, bibtex etc to a single .lyx file. Your problem is caused by the repeated loading of the same local layout file by your child documents, which is a bug that I should have fixed. > Is there a preference for which to remove? Also, will I need to do a > reconfigure for it to take? You can use the latest svn if it fixes your problem, or remove local layout file. Removing system layout file may not work. > And, just for good measure, any comment on why the "0"s are appearing? is > this related to the same issue? I am not sure about this one. If the problem persists after the layout problem is fixed, you can send a shrinked version of your document to me, or the lyx-users list. Cheers, Bo
