Hope this helps.

You need to create some new layout. If this is something you think you 
will use again in another paper, then put it into a module of your own. 
If not, if it's just a one-off sort of thing, then you can put it into 
Local Layout, under DocumentSettings. You can read about layout and 
modules and such in Chapter 5 of the Customization manual.


In this case, though, we can just crib off what's already in LyX. In the 
theorems.inc file, we have, e.g.:


Style Fact
CopyStyle Theorem
DependsOn  Theorem
LatexName fact
LabelString   Fact \thetheorem.
Preamble
\theoremstyle{plain}
\newtheorem{fact}[thm]{\protect\factname}
EndPreamble
LangPreamble
\providecommand{\factname}{_(Fact)}
EndLangPreamble
BabelPreamble
\addto\captions$$lang{\renewcommand{\factname}{_(Fact)}}
EndBabelPreamble
End

We can just copy it over change the obvious parts to make it an 
Implication, leaving out the translation-related stuff (which won't do 
anything for you).


So the module might look like this:

#\DeclareLyXModule{New Theorem Styles}
#DescriptionBegin
#Defines some additional theorem-like environments, including Implication.
#DescriptionEnd
#Requries: theorems-ams | theorems-std
#Category: theorems

# Author: Richard Heck rgh...@comcast.net

Format 35

Style Implication
CopyStyle Theorem
DependsOn  Theorem
LatexName fact
LabelString   Implication \thetheorem.
Preamble
\theoremstyle{plain}
\newtheorem{implic}[thm]{Implication}
EndPreamble
End

Put that in a file newtheorems.module, save it in your local LyX user 
directory, reconfigure LyX, and you should see the module as one of your 
choices.

Problem with customized lists

2012-07-30 Thread CP 
I would like to use roman numerals for lists and be able to cross-reference them
in the document.



Example:

i) blah
ii) blah

The elements in the text i) and ii) refer to gibberish.



I added the following line to the preamble

\renewcommand{\theenumi}{\roman{enumi})}

This achieves almost exactly what I want, except that the list has dots after
the parentheses, e.g.

i). blah
ii). blah

Does anyone know how to remove those?

Thanks.

for a better solution..

Not sure if the can be done from BiBDesk or even LyX Gui, 
but the bibtex command you need is \nocite{}.
I have done it with ERT in LyX with no problems.

In LyX's citation dialog, select the item Add to bibliography only
from the Citation Style combo. You can add all those references to a
single citation instance.

If you want really all entries of the database listed, then left-click
on the BibTeX bibliography button and select All bibliography
entries from the Contents combo.

Look into the enumitem package, which LyX already uses for some lists. 
It makes it much easier to do this kind of thing.
