LaTeX has come a long way and today the basic usage of LaTeX starts with the choice of the document class. At least two packages are very powerful and very configurable: Memoir and KOMA-Script. Within these classes you can change practically everything you want. For other classes (the regular ones) you need a lot of extra packages to change their look and behaviour. And then there are very special classes such as AMS, IEEE and so on which are often written for very special purposes such as specific journals. Unless you are writing for such a journal providing its own document class or unless you want your writings to look exactly like in one of these journals, I for my part would not recommend using them. Use Memoir or KOMA instead and check their manuals to make changes. Quite a few typical changes can be done very easily by mouse-click in LyX’ document settings dialogue. If you need help with theses classes simply ask on the list. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/about-the-style-of-the-section-numbering-tp17508124p17529204.html Sent from the LyX - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
