Greetings, I used LyX up to now for basic tasks, but now I have to use the Elsevier class, and I'm discovering a lot of new problems. I chosed LyX right to avoid all the complexities of the Tex/LaTeX world, and I'd be very sorry if to simply switch classes this was not sufficient!
By choosing New->From template->elsart.lyx, even the standard template is unable to be compiled, giving the errors: 1) undefined control sequence on " \title{Insert your Title Here}" 2) Missing number, treated as zero , always on \title 3) improper 'at' size (0.0pt), replaced by 10pt, always on \title 4) Missing = inserted for \ifnum on \author{Author's name} 5) Missing number, treated as zero, always on \author Yet, I have: /usr/share/lyx/templates/elsart.lyx and /usr/share/lyx/layouts/elsart.layout (both by lyx-1.5.5-1.fc8) and the directory /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/elsart containing elsart.cls, elsart5.cls (and yes, after installing it I did texhash on /usr/share/texmf, followed by reconfigure on lyx) what's happening? I'm completely lost - and the article deadline is nearer and nearer! local system: Linux Fedora fc8 thank you for any help! alessandro -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/problems-with-class-and-or-layout--tp662032p662032.html Sent from the LyX - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
