How do I format the TOC?

2000-11-29 Thread Nick Bogan

I've been using LyX long enough so that I can't excuse my ignorance due
to newbie status.  I'm trying to format my (math) master's thesis, and
am running into problems.
- I don't know how to add dotted lines to the Table of Contents.
- I don't know how to modify page numbering (location and scheme).
What file(s) do I edit for these?

I've wasted quite a bit of time trying to use LaTeX directly to do this,
based on LaTeX files tailored for my university's format requirements by
someone else.  I've exported my thesis as LaTeX and pasted the
appropriate sections into the appropriate chapter files.  In the
resulting dvi, the Table of Contents and the page numbers are correct,
but all my notes, remarks, definitions, etc. are italicized, instead of
just the theorems.

If anyone has any suggestions on how to make either of these methods
work, please send your reply to my e-mail address.  Thanks in advance
for the help!

therefore use package tocloft (tocloft also needs by itself stdclsdv),
which should be part of your standard tex-installation.

 - I don't know how to modify page numbering (location and scheme).

usepackage{fancyhdr} and than for example

\fancyfoot[CE,CO]{\small $\sim$voss/Nassi-Demo.lyx\hfill\thepage}

with a left formatted text and rightformatted pagenumber. 
CE: center,even pages
CO: center, odd pages
