 Well, not everybody is so convinced, that it is so stupid (don't be so fast

Date in title (was: LyX deletes text)

 Hello LyX users!
 
 One other thing I would like to ask is: how can I get LyX to stop including 
 the date on the title page, this is a stupid function that I would like to 
 permanently delete.

Put:

\date{}

in the LaTeX preamble (Layout--LaTeX Preamble).

Or, just type it in your document, just before the title, in LateX mode
(red). Set LaTeX mode from the pull-down menu, or by hitting Ctrl-L.

 If in KDE, click on the file with the right eye of mouse and check whether
 you have not executable attributes on.
It is on.

 Well, not everybody is so convinced, that it is so stupid (don't be so fast
 with your judgments), but anyway: just put \date{} in your preamble
 (Format/LaTeX preamble). It should help.
Sorry if you feel offended but it should have been: 'I think that this is a 
stupid function', then I'm not judging anything...:-)

 It should certainly be off -- your documents are not supposed to be
 executable, are they?

Whoops! You sure got a point there, now it's a c++ file.:-)

LyX deletes text

2001-02-28 Thread EagleIce

Hello LyX users!

I am new on this list, but I've been using LyX for over a year now. It is one 
of my favorite programs. Right now I use version 1.1.4fix3 in SuSE Linux 7.0 
and it is giving me some real headache.
A book I am writing (Class: Book) starts with the title page and then a 
chapter which only icludes one verse and then there's a new chapter. Every 
time I open this file in LyX the title for the second chapter has vanished 
and also the first two sentences. 
The icon for this particular file looks different from all the others; .lyx* 
(icon 'executable', normally it's a 'c++' icon).
Can someone inform me why this happens?

One other thing I would like to ask is: how can I get LyX to stop including 
the date on the title page, this is a stupid function that I would like to 
permanently delete.

Thank's in advance,

ei

'preample'. If you mean in the beginning of the work-file itself then that 
didn't work, \date{} appeared beside the title!
