This does sound like a job for a Flex inset. Can you explain in detail what you want to accomplish, in terms of LaTeX? Is there preamble code? What do you want to appear where this new inset would appear? I'd suggest you look at endnotes.module for an example you should be able to adapt. As for LyXType, the only genuine options here are CharStyle and Custom. The former is intended, as it says, for character styles, such as noun and small caps. They appear under Edit> TextStyle. The latter is intended for custom insets such as endnote. They appear under Insert> Custom Insets. Richard
