Layout: ERT alignment yet again

[Michael Bach]

Dear LyX Users and Developers,

this is my first post, so to begin with: Hi to All!

For those in a hurry or just interested in my actual question, please 
skip the next 2 paragraphs.


I am a lecturer and typography hobbyist. I used many LaTeX editors in 
the past, including GNU Emacs+AUCTeX, Emacs+org-mode and Kile. I am 
using LyX now for an increasing number of projects. So in essence I am a 
LyX newcomer.


Coming from Emacs I appreciate the nice builtin documentation. The 
examples and google searches often get me where I want. I already have a 
decent setup on my good old faculty machine: Windows XP, MiKTeX and LyX 
2.0.4.


So my actual question is essentially the same as has been asked  on 
tex.stackexchange[1] and then on this ML[2]. I could not get ERT 
alignment to work as mentioned in the Answers.


I have got the following in my Document  Settings  Local Layout:

Format 35
InsetLayout ERT
Align left
Font
Size Small
EndFont
End

The 'Font' part works as expected, the 'Align' bit does not. I am at a 
loss. I already tried capitalisation and other ad-hoc trial-and-errors.


Any hints?

Thanks and Best Regards,
Michael Bach

This worked well for my ERT insets, Thanks!

One last thing though: How can I change the layout (e.g. font size) for 
captions inside float insets?


I tried e.g. for figures:

---

InsetLayout Figure
Font
Size Small
EndFont

For reference, a workaround was suggested by Jürgen Spitzmüller.

This *may* be what you want: 
http://dcwww.camd.dtu.dk/~schiotz/comp/LatexTips/LatexTips.html#captfont

As it describes a more global way of doing things, it may override (or 
be overridden by?) the local ERT at each inset. It's all a bit of waving a dead 
chicken at it to me, though, and I could be way off base. Still, hope it helps!

Thanks for your input.

As far as I can see, your link points to general LaTeX advice on the 
actual typesetting of the captions. I use the caption package for this.


For me, I wanted to have readable and visually different ERT and caption 
insets within the LyX GUI - thus alignment and font size questions.


Maybe I am missing something, but for me these layout settings do not 
affect the pdf output. Please correct me if that is wrong / should / 
could be different. As I said, new to LyX.


Cheers,
Michael
