Novice: How to change the headings color of a document
I do not know what package and what command to pass in a document preamble to change the color of all the headings (Chapter, section, sub-sec, etc...), from the default black to another color e.g. dark blue. I do not need to change the color of the header/footer, which probably request a different package or set of commands. Google the list archive did not help much with my level of knowledge. I got a hint (see below), about changing the document class, but I don't know how: The reason, as Jurgen pointed out, is because the chapter headings turn up in the page headers---not to mention the TOC. So you really don't want to change its color anyway, not manually. If you want chapter headings to be colored, you change that in the document class. I probably need \usepackage{color} + a command to color all the document headings. Thanks -- nomnex nom...@gmail.com Freenode: nomnex Registered Linux user #505281.

I have tried, and once I remove the package unsupported by my textlive version (Doc > Settings > preamble), I can export to pdf/dvi. LyX crashes immediately (LyX closes). It generates a ABRT (automated bug reporting tool) report. I am aware the file is in German. I am also a beginner (I installed LyX a week ago, and I have NO level of expertise yet). Let me know if my answer is not relevant. Regards, nomnex -- nomnex <nom...@gmail.com> Freenode: nomnex Registered Linux user #505281. Be counted at: http://linuxcounter.net

Are there any suspicious messages in that report (or on the > console, if you start LyX from there)? Also, can you export to LaTeX > (pdflatex) and post the tex file here? Hello, Jürgen. It looks like the problem as been solved. Anyway, for the information, find below the the shell output of the error msg when I preview the file to PDF or DVI. I am not sure if it is related with the OP and the bug, or simply with my configuration. I open the file. I remove the module convington, and the command in the preamble. Then, I preview to pdf/dvi.
