section title centered
stupid question, but I couldn't figure it out using the manual, I allways get error-messsages. I'm using titlesec and I just want my section*-title centered instead of the default left alignment. I use Lyx 1.37 with the document-class article. thanks Robert
Re: Lyx crash with QT4.3.4 and samba
Hi all, Thanks for your answers. Maybe I should have explained that I have mounted the samba share manually on my machine, and just accessing it through lyx (which sees it as normal folders then). Steve: Try making a subdirectory several deep, INSIDE /home/xxx/Papers, and see if you can navigate that within LyX. Also, whatever you navigated in LyX to produce this problem, try it from Windows Explorer (they still have Windows Explorer, don't they?) and see if anything funky happens there. Interestingly, subdirectories seem to work ok. I have no problem using the file browser to access either of the documents. Jürgen: Thanks a lot, I do hope it is the same problem, and I will try installing lyx 1.5.5 as soon as I have a minute. Daniel: I guess the precision above answered your questions, if not, let me know! Regards, Mélanie

Problems with Lyx output
Hello, I´ve installed Lyx on my Mac (Macbook, running with Leopard) for the first time. I´ve followed the instructions and prior to Lyx I have installed MacTeX and then Lyx 1.5.4 but, whenever I open the Lyx application I get the error message shown here: The layout file requested by this document article.layout, is not usable. This is probably because a LaTeX class or style file required by it is not available. See the Customization Documentation for more information. LyX will not be able to produce output Could anyone help me with this? I would greatly appreciate it. Cheers, Anna

Best choice of 'intermediate' graphics format
Hi, I have a lot of DSF vector drawings (made under Designer, a Windows program). They have been exported as EPS. Now that I am working under Linux, I could import them (the EPS ones) in LyX. But I need to modify some of them, say, in OOdraw or Inkscape or Xara... What do you think would be my best choice as an export format from Designer? It would be even better if LyX handled it directly. Here is a sample of export formats offered by Designer: AI, PSD, DXF, MGX, PLT, IGS, PPF, PNG, SCT, EMF (not to mention WMF). These graphics will appear in documents for printing and pdf output. TIA for any advice. Regards, -- Daniel CLEMENT
