Hi Enrico,

It's even in a file name src/insets/InsetCollapsable.cpp.
Is someone interested to fix this in the internal parts aswell?
What's the problem? My dictionary claims they are equivalent.
dict.leo.org and my oldschool Oxford advanced learners dictionary only
know about 'collapsible'. I've no idea what's the authority for english
spelling (Germany has something called 'Duden').
I don't know, either.
But:
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/collapsable
http://translate.google.de/translate_t?hl=&ie=UTF-8&text=collapsable&sl=en&tl=de#en|de|collapsable
http://dizionari.corriere.it/dizionario_inglese/Inglese/C/collapsable.shtml
See also attachment.
However:

All of this suggests that "collapsable" is an acceptable spelling in the
US, but not in Britain. There are plenty of such differences, of course.
