Replied thus:

Thank you el, for that suggestion. 

The solution was as Chris suggested:
\ThisCenterWallPaper{1}{path_to_wallpaper} in an ERT. I didn't
have the "This" in my ERT and therefore it produced the
wallpaper on every page of the document. Not a bad thing, but
in certain documents, just to have it on the first page was
desirable.

Be well,

If it is in the preamble you can try to but it into (the braces of)
something like

\AtBeginDocument{}
or
\NowButAfterBeginDocument{}

Try the following:

1. In the preamble add the following line:
\usepackage{wallpaper}

2. In the document add TeX following code (LyX > Insert > TeX Code):
\thispagestyle{empty}
\ThisCenterWallPaper{1}{path_to_wallpaper}

Thanks Chris,

That has done it. Great.

I always use \thispagestyle{empty} in the first page.

I attempted to use \ThisCenterWallPaper{.43}{path_to_wallpaper}

However, I must have done something wrong, because it didn't work. I
tried so many things, in the end. I might have put that in the preamble
instead of ERT. I don't know?

Thank you, it works a treat. You are the man.

Wallpaper on first page only........

2021-05-05 Thread Charlie


Hello Everyone,

I was just wondering if anyone has a way of creating a
wallpaper image on the first page of a document only?

I use ERT: \CenterWallPaper{.53}{graphic desired}

However, it places the image on every page of the document. Usually use
it that way, but in some instances it would more desirable on only the
first page.

Have tried various methods found on the NET to have it only on the
first page. No joy unfortunately.

TIA,
Charlie
