I'd like to use, for this specific instance, letter style enumeration [ like a) b) c) ] . I realize that I can nest one enumerate environment in another and the style will change, but I don't want a dangling "1." from the topmost enumerate environment.
[Tex/LaTex] LyX enumeration style from numbers to letters

The enumeration is strange here, therefore I use a new list named strangenumerate
Since label*= cannot be applied here for the deeper nested levels (it prints a ), there are some other strategies:
- Make a conditional on the level of nesting and change the
labelaccording to this - Refer directly to the counter of the current level, i.e.
strangenumerateihere.

\usepackage{enumitem}
\newlist{strangenumerate}{enumerate}{2}
\setlist[strangenumerate]{noitemsep}
\setlist[strangenumerate,1]{label={\arabic*)}}
\setlist[strangenumerate,2]{label={\arabic{strangenumeratei}.\arabic*)}}
\begin{document}
\begin{strangenumerate}
\item % item number is 1)
Hello
\item % item number is 2)
How are you?
\begin{strangenumerate}
\item % item number is 2.1)
I'm fine, thank you!
\item % item number is 2.2)
What about you?
\end{strangenumerate}
\item % item number is 3)
Good!
\item % item number is 4)
Do you know where is he?
\begin{strangenumerate}[label={\arabic{strangenumeratei}.\arabic*.}]
\item % item number is 4.1.
No!
\item % item number is 4.2.
Sorry

Write into
Document->Settings->Preamble:For deeper values use also [3], [4]. Inside LyX you will still see the 1. If you want to change this too, then you'll have to rewrite your LyX layout file.
