Thanks Bob!
Indeed I've got my thesis formatting fine now just after a little more
tweaking and adding flags from the latex file into LyX. I suppose these
could be removed by making a template for the various parts?
So this fix just redefined maketitle to do nothing, correct?
Maybe a flag to change this could be nice in the future (in properties
of a title perhaps?)
Thanks for your help and getting me moving.
