Actually I did not mean this as a patch, but as something that I don't
quite understand why it should not work. For example I the following
environment declared in my layout file:
Style Entry
LatexType Command
LatexName cventry
LabelString "(years; title; institution; location; grade; description):"
ParbreakIsNewline 1
PassThru 1
RequiredArgs 5
End
However in the Lyx editor I am unable to insert the 5 arguments
because the "Insert > Short title" command is disabled. It's not
enough for me to type for example the line "{a}{b}{c}{d}{e}rest" in
Lyx, because this then generates the Latex output:
\cventry{}{}{}{}{}{{a}{b}{c}{d}{e}rest}
which is not what I want. Or am I doing something wrong?
