Adding space in the LyX interface
Hello everyone Does anyone know if it's possible to add more space between paragraphs in the LyX user interface (i.e., not the output)? Along the same lines, is it possible to add a margin in the user interface? I personally find the text more readable with space between the paragraphs (as in this mail) and with space between the text and the window frame. So I hope there's some way to adjust these parameters. I would appreciate any help! Thanks, Mathias

You'd want to change the ParSep and LeftMargin settings for various Styles. If you want to reuse this in various documents, then you can either (a) do it in a module, which you can include in all of your documents, or (b) copy the original LyX layouts to your local LyX layout directory and modify those.

Re: Adding space in the LyX interface
Does anyone know if it's possible to add more space between paragraphs in the LyX user interface (i.e., not the output)? Not exactly more space, but there's a --Separator-- in most layouts (choose it where you choose paragraph styles: Standard, Section, Title...) Along the same lines, is it possible to add a margin in the user interface? Yes. In Local Layout of Document Settings dialog; just type Format 11 RightMargin MMM LeftMargin MMM press Validate press Apply If you don't find --Separator-- environment, you can also add it to the Local Layout: Style --Separator-- CategoryMainText KeepEmpty1 MarginDynamic LatexType Paragraph LatexName dummy ParIndentMM AlignBlock LabelType Static LabelString --- --- --- --- LabelFont Color Blue EndFont End
