LyX ⇒ book: an unsolicited date on the title page

[llama]

Hi,

I put in just Author and Title environments, but get an unsolicited date (xdivk view) on the title page. What is the recommended way to get rid of it?

Most standard LaTeX packages do show a date in the title.

If just putting in an empty date:

\date{}

looks OK to you, then do that. Otherwise, you'll probably need to use something like the titling package to customize the look of the titles.

Thanks! The empty (containing a protected space, Ctrl-space) date works.
