Re: Custom .layout files in LyX 1.4

2006-03-14 Thread Maria Gouskova
i actually did add numarticle.inc (copied it from the new
article.layout), so the text of the .layout file that causes the
problem is as follows:

#% #% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
#  \DeclareLaTeXClass[article]{article (Covington)}
# Article textclass definition file. Taken from initial LyX source code
# Author : Matthias Ettrich [EMAIL PROTECTED]
# Transposed by Pascal Andre [EMAIL PROTECTED]
# Heavily modifed and enhanced by several developers.

Format 2

Input stdclass.inc
Input numarticle.inc
Input linguistics.inc

NoStyle Chapter
NoStyle Chapter*

MaxCounter  Counter_Section
SecNumDepth 3
TocDepth3

End

linguistics.inc is juergen's file:

http://wiki.lyx.org/uploads/LyX/LinguistLyX/linguistics.inc

i didn't change the contents of the linguistics.inc file, though. if
that has to be modified as well, then this could be causing the
problem.

This line tells LyX that the layout file is in the new format for 1.4, but 
this is not true, because it contains the old keyword MaxCounter. Read 
the section 'Upgrading old layout files' in Customization.lyx if you want 
to know more about this.

End is not valid at this place (neither in 1.3 nor in 1.4). Remove this 
line and the line with Format above and everything should work.
It seems that LyX 1.4 is more picky about unknown keywords in layout files 
than 1.3.

No, that one works fine.

Custom .layout files in LyX 1.4

I just installed LyX 1.4 on Mac OS 10.4.5 and am having a problem with
custom-made .layout files. When I try to change the document class to
