LyX search path for packages

Thank you very much. The last version of antp that the MiKTeX package manager makes available to me is from 2001. Still, both \usepackage[light]{antpolt} and \usepackage[light]{antpolt} do not work, the former still brings the error that the option is unknown. I was able to install poltawski using ...

Vertical space around display equations

I am trying to reduce vertical space around display (and eqnarray) equations in order to save space. For testing purposes, I have included the following commands in my preamble:
\setlength\abovedisplayskip{-12pt}
\setlength\belowdisplayskip{-12pt}
\setlength\abovedisplayshortskip{-12pt}
