Dear LyX users,

Does anyone know ho to set the aspect ratio for beamer presentations with LyX equal to 16:9? I have made many attempts, but completeley unsucessful so far.

Regards,

AFAIR at "Document→Settings→Document Class" you can set custom options to the class. For 16:9 use option aspectratio=169. It is documented in the beamer user guide, section 8.3.

Dear Ijon,

Thanks a lot for your immediate and right answer. It works perfectly. Sorry for my question, now (after you provided me with your simple answer) I realized that it was not a "deep" one.

Regards,
Cruz
