Hi! First things first: Lyx version 2.0 alpha 5, OS: mac os x 10.6.4, installed by using the precompiled .dmg from the lyx.org homepage.
My situtation is as follows: I am trying to write an article together with someone who is used to word-style gui tools, hence my LyX adventure began. (I write plain LaTeX myself, just because that is what I am used to.) I am trying to convert my revtex4-1 project to LyX, but LyX doesn't find the layout file. I downloaded the file http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~rmanoj/revtex4-1.layout and placed it into the folder ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-2.0.0alpha5/layouts but LyX says, when I try to import my LaTeX code, that """ The layout file: revtex4-1 could not be found. A default textclass with default layouts will be used. LyX will not be able to produce correct output. """ which is indeed correct - the output does not look good. So, is there an error with the .layout file? Did I put it into the wrong place? I'm new to LyX, and any help is appreciated :-) If we can fix this, I'll happily recommend LyX to some more colleagues of mine... Cheers, Paul.
