One way to do this would be to use an array (InsertMathArray), make it
1x3, and put the equations in the outer cells and nothing but some space
in the middle.

RE: Footnote location

2010-04-03 Thread Ingar Pareliussen
If I understand your request correctly you want the footnotes always to appear 
on
bottom of the page? This is what usually should happen, if you do not
use \raggedbottom or similar (irrc).

Try to use the footmisc package. It is probably in your latex-installation, 
if not install it from ctan. 
(http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/footmisc)

Write something like this is Documents-Settings--LaTeX Preamble

\usepackage[bottom]{footmisc}

To learn more about the footmisc (it has a lot of options):
http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/footmisc/footmisc.pdf

If this don't work we would need a small lyx file demonstrating the problem.

And please do not top post. It makes it less likely for some of us older 
folks to reply ;-).  (and it is much easier to follow a thread in 
mail-archive when inline quoting is used, just try it :))

Hi guys,

Thank you all for helping me. I've found the bug and fixed it. It was just, 
that I've not properly done the format BEFORE writing the whole text, but 
afterwards. So it crashed my opinions and it happened what I've explained here. 

Sorry for asking such silly questions, like it looks now afterwards. But the 
first thing I've asked, how to manage the gap between the text and the footnote

If the ERT didn't work, a character style won't either. The only way to do my

I think there's probably a better and simpler solution -- I just don't know 
it.
