Hi,
I am working with Lyx 1.6.2 on windows, and I am writing my thesis in
the book (KOMA-script) - class. It is a multi-part document. I wanted
to use the headings style "fancy" (Document -> Settings... -> Page
Layout), and got weird results: On the top left it states the right
chapter (as I wanted), but on the top right it always inserts the word
"Contents". If I use the headings style "plain", it inserts only the
word "Contents" on the top, all throughout the document. (I inserted
my TOC simply through the menu function, and have no other problems
with it.)
I am quite confused. Does anybody know why it might be doing that, and
- mainly :-) - how I could fix it? I would be happy just to have the
word "contents" deleted from my headings.
The fancy style is intended for cases where you want to define your own
headers and footers. So I'll guess that somehow there's a default that
isn't doing what you want. Possibly, "Contents" is the name of the Part,
or maybe a section, that never gets changed. Anyway, if you're not
wanting to define your own headings, then you shouldn't really use
fancy. If you do want to define your own headings, then look at the docs
for the fancyhdr package, or see the discussion of this in the LyX docs.
That said, I'm also not sure how well fancyhdr works with koma-script,
which tends to have its own way of doing things. Look at the koma-script
documentation
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/koma-script/scrguien.pdf
in the index under "page style" for ways to customize things there.
