I'm trying to write a novel in LyX, and I run into some problems with
sectioning.
The structure I have in mind is, the book would be divided into 50+ parts,
each part having ten or so short chapters (about 50-60 pages per part).
[...]
The problem is, while I do want the book parts to be titled, I don't want
the chapters titled, just numbered.
[...]
The real problem is, how do I make the chapters untitled?
I know I can put a single hard space (Ctl-Space) as the chapter's title,
but
it's a waste of space on a chapter title page, and it won't look right in
the TOC.
Put a blank ERT where the chapter title goes.
By a blank ERT you mean an '{}' ERT, right?
No, totally blank.
Would this make the chapter start page to consume less vertical space?
Yes.
Besides, it's not really an answer, my original question included the following:
Is there any way to do this without using ERT on every single chapter
heading?
Well, sorry, I answered as much as I knew at the time. But if you set
"KeepEmpty" to true in the Chapter layout, that will do, I think.
