This is how I use IEEE template in LyX, first of all, you will need to select the document class as: article(IEEEtrans). IEEE tend to use a fancy large first letter as the beginning of the article, and top header reserved for both journal title and page number. Especially to note that, IEEE require the table caption go above the table, and figure caption go below the figure. This article will explain how to do all these.

Evil Red Text

This is how to format the evil red text as shown below.

and this is how to achieve it in LyX:

and code in LaTeX:

[cc lang="latex"] \PARstart{T}{here} is a need for a little Evil Red Text in the first paragraph. Refer to the IEEEtran documentation (sample document) for more details. [/cc]

Left and Right Page Header

This is how it looks like:

and this is how to do it in LyX.

The right page header is always the page number, you can use the left page Header for Journal title.

Its LaTeX code:

[cc lang="latex"] \markboth{This is for left pages Home}{and this is for right pages number} [/cc]

Insert Tables

You can insert table as usual in LyX, but the IEEE conference / transaction requires the table captions above the table.

Insert Figures

Note that the figure captions go below the figure. In LyX I tend to set the figure width equal to 100% of the column width.
