Meaning of PageStyle as a class parameter

[ehud.behar at protonmail.com]

Thanks very much for the quick reply.

I just tried what you described and it and you are right. I see the full list.

But when I do it in my own layout file, it doesn't work. Maybe I am conflicting this setting with another one?

My Layout file reads:

# \DeclareLaTeXClass[book]{My Book}
# \DeclareCategory{Books}
# Author: humble author
# Layout file based on the book document class for my books.

Format 66
# This a copy of the content of the standard book.layout file shipped with LyX
Input stdclass.inc
Input numreport.inc


ClassOptions
  FontSize	10
  Other "a4paper,asdfleqno,fleqn,gretush"
End
PageStyle            empty|plain|headings|myheadings|ruled|Ruled|companion
