Hi Boyko,

You would need to write a layout file for Lyx, based on the Latex style.

You can check:
-Lyx Wiki;
-Rob's pages: http://blog.oak-tree.us/index.php/2009/11/02/custom-lyx-nih
- Steve Litt has also detailed instructions.

See also chapter 5 of the Customization manual, which addresses this very issue. You will also want to look at the layout files that ship with LyX.

Depending upon what your LaTeX style is, it may be quite simple to define a LyX layout for it. This will largely depend upon how many commands and environments it has that differ from something LyX already makes available. But let's say the new class, ourconf.cls, is based upon article.cls, with some additions and formatting changes. Then:

=====

#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
#  \DeclareLaTeXClass{ourconf}

Format 31

Input article.layout

# Now add the new stuff

=====

You don't necessarily need to change anything about formatting inside LyX itself. LyX isn't WYSIWYG anyway.
