Landscape

Dear all, I am desperately trying to figure out why Lyx is adding a blank page when the package \usepackage{lscape} is used. Is anyone aware of: 1) an alternative for generating a single landscape page? 2) or, a command that deletes the blank page? Many thanks George

Hi, all. I promise I'll be quiet after this post--I don't mean to pester (or imply by any stretch that I'm unhappy with LyX in general!). But can anyone comment on this? For what it's worth, I really do like LyX, and I'm not trying to troll or put on anyone. I'm just curious about the

Back in 2001, switching away from writing books in MS Word (yeah, laugh all you want), I considered both LyX and DocBook. At the time, the only free software front end I could find for DocBook was Emacs, and my wrists just aren't that flexible. LyX benefits: * VERY fast writing environment.

Dear all, This might seem an easy question, but I am new to Lyx and LaTeX in general. I have a table and want the numbers to be aligned at the full-stop. Having a minus sign in front of the number distorts the alignment. eg: 0.043 -0.274 1.429 Any suggestions? Many thanks George
