Hi there all,
I'm trying to convert a LyX document to the OpenDocument format using the export facility in 1.6.5. Almost everything works except any protected/forced \vspace's are ignored. This first showed up when I noticed the scene-breaks of the novel were not appearing in the output (using the Memoir class \fancyplainbreak ).
Any ideas on how to get the OpenDocument conversion to preserve hard coded vspace?
(I've tried \vspace*{10mm}, \vspace*{2em} etc )
Regards,
Paul.
LyX ⇒ OpenDocument export doesn't honour protected \vspace?

Re: OpenDocument export doesn't honour protected \vspace?
To get the job done I had to resort to an ugly ugly hack, I just put in a line containing nothing more than a single space in place of the \vspace.
