LyX ⇒ Display Header on first Page

[lyxer]

Hi all,

I'm trying to display the header on the first page
but with no luck. The code below shows what I have in
the preamble. Is there anything else I need to include?

Also, the line \rfoot{\thepage} is supposed to display
the page number. How can I stop that?, i.e. I don't want
to display the page number on the first page. Omitting
" \thepage " won't do it?

Thnx

Sas

Code: Select all

\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\lhead{EEL 400}
\chead{2011}
\rhead{Circuits}
\lfoot{}
\cfoot{}
\rfoot{\thepage}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0.0pt}
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0.0pt}

Since the code is incomplete, I can't tell for sure. Most likely, however, you are using \maketitle on the first page which invokes \thispagestyle{plain}. (Hence, any settings for the pagestyle fancy will have no effect.) The documentation of the fancyhdr package shows how to work around this.

I've looked through the fancyhdr documentation but couldn't
find what I'm looking for, or maybe it's there but I missed
it.

Anyways, I'm attaching a sample file and its output.
The heading appear on the second page but not the first page.

Great! It's working.

I just needed to add : \pagestyle{fancy}.
Now when I also remove \thepage from \rfoot{\thepage}
the page number on the first page disappeared.

Thanks a lot.
