Would you be willing to do this in ERT? I find that the first page, cover page, etc. are notoriously difficult to get correctly specified in Lyx. The ERT would be someting like http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/819/double-line-spacing
Also, it might be linebreak but I think it should be newline. Honestly, I find that if I have to edit or modify class files and the like, I just find a library to do it for me and write it up in latex. It seems to be much easier that way. \usepackage{setspace} \begin{centering} \doublespacing Masters of Science \newline in \newline Nuclear Engineering \newline \end{centering} ~Ben On Wed, Jun 4, 2014 at 3:04 PM, Steve Burnham <dan...@gmail.com> wrote: > On June 4, 2014 at 12:50:48 PM, PhilipPirrip (p...@net.hr) wrote: > > It's hard to guess what you're supposed to have without knowing anything > about your latex class. > What's obvious from the excerpt you've given is that \@degree is meant > to be an internal command of the class (because of the @).
