Actually, I have two problem with using the book(ams) class.
First, I want to have a piece of abstract in my document just before the
content list. But there is no option for this format in book(ams) class. Can
I add abstract to the document manually, and how to do that?
I'm not sure why, but the abstract was explicitly removed from the
book(AMS) layout. A book can have an abstract, so we should restore it.
If you want to add it manually, use ERT: Insert>TeX Code, then
"\begin{abstract}". Then out of ERT, type what you want. Then at the
end, ERT: \end{abstract}.
Second, when ever I compile the lyx book file, all the child document are
automatically opened. How can I avoid that?
You can't, at least not in 1.5. I'm not sure about 1.6. LyX 1.6 (due out
Monday) may just open them "in the background".
