Center Document Title vertically on Page

Good time of the day!
How I can force title (I use the article document class) to appear in the center of the page?
I tried to insert vertical spaces before title, but this does not work.

This would need the titlepage option for the document class. LyX should allow to set this option somewhere. Since I do not use LyX, I can't tell you details.

There is no such option in Lyx.

Then just try to use the {titlepage} environment somehow.

It is the first thing that comes up with Document > Settings.

Under "Custom" (In the "Document Class" page which should be the first one), put "titlepage".
