beamposter
Hello, I used to use lyx for my presentations. Now, I want to make a poster (either on A0, or divided in A4 or A3 sheets). When I move to documentclass to Beamposter, my text size has been divided by? maybe 16! I tried to play with the scale of \usepackage[orientation=landscape,scale=0.125]{} It does not help. How can I keep my presentation layout, and obtain a poster (possibly in pieces), by only playing with the setting?

Re: Setting
Thank, Now, it works like you said. But before (i.e. I close and restart the editor), it wasnot working that way. It was just impossible to edit the preamble without doing Edit! Bizarre. === Patrick DUPRÉ | | email: pdu...@gmx.com Laboratoire interdisciplinaire Carnot de Bourgogne 9 Avenue Alain Savary, BP 47870, 21078 DIJON Cedex FRANCE Tel: +33 (0)380395988 === Sent: Monday, August 05, 2019 at 4:57 PM From: "Paul A.

I'm not sure what the Edit button is for, but I suspect it's to do things like search-and-replace that the LyX interface does not directly support. Paul

See > https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/10970 I doubt if accounting for Memoir's idiosyncracies is practical. The Memoir class allows fine tuning of numerous parameters that LyX doesn't even know about. It's not just page format, its: \setstocksize \settrimmedsize \settrims \settypeblocksize \setlrmargins \setlength{\marginparwidth} \pagestyle \chapterstyle and many other parameters I've never used. If you're not prepared to read the 609 page Memoir manual (memman.pdf) you really shouldn't try to use Memoir. If you do read it, and understand it, you will view page layout in a completely new way. I have used memoir extensively for years, and I'm still learning how to improve page layout. If you want good page layout that is nearly what you need, use KOMA-script Book. If you want an exact page layout, use Memoir, but be prepared to learn how to do it. Les -- Les Denham

However, we could account for that in LyX. See https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/10970 Jürgen signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
