LyX 2.2.1 CV

I recently upgraded LyX from 2.1.1 to 2.2.1. Unfortunately, none of the three main example CVs given (Modern, EU, and Simple) in the LyX Wiki will even open in the new version of LyX. I am on a 64 bit machine using Windows 10.

Has anyone been able to get the standard CV templates to open in the new ...

Re: res | Eliminate white Space

Is there a more modern class you would recommend that would let me achieve a CV that looks similar to the one I linked to?

res | Eliminate white Space

I'm writing my resume in res class and there is an unpleasant amount of white space between the section titles and the the content of each section. In particular, I would like my CV to look something more like this:

Re: moderncv | Undefined Control Sequence Errors

Alright, well that's all well and good, but how do I use the options presented here?

It seems like I have the option to automatically title my PDF "Curriculum Vitae." How do I do this?

Re: moderncv | Undefined Control Sequence Errors

Ok, here is the attached file. According to Windows explorer is 1.37 kb and not size-zero. I have no idea why it will not work without any words in the body of the document.

Adobe Reader could not open 'CV.2012.14.3.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email ...

moderncv | Undefined Control Sequence Errors

Thanks,

How do I set a name in the LyX?
How do I access the preamble of the document from LyX 2.0.2?

Simply writing:

Code: Select all

\firstname{John}
\familyname{Doe}
into the body after selecting TeX Code doesn't work as expected.

Once again, thanks!

Hello All,

I recently downloaded LyX 2.0 (having used LyX 1.x a long time ago) and I was trying to make my CV in it. However, for document class curriculum vitae (modern) I cannot even view a blank page of pdf-output without getting five "Undefined control sequence" errors with the following short ...
