Re: How do I bring the QUANTA journal template into LyX?
Indeed there is no trace of any LyX layout file for Quanta. However, I don't think you have to go the customized layout route. I tried (with LyX 2.2.3) to import (File > Import > LaTeX (plain)) the LaTeX template called Manuscript.tex (it's available on the quanta site) and it creates a LyX file that's not too bad as a start. When I generated the PDF, it took some time to install the missing packages/fonts on my MikTeX install, and it resulted in a few errors with "Option clash" for both babel and graphicx. There are several packages that seem to be superfluously loaded in the preamble (Document > Settings > LaTeX preamble). Commenting them out worked. The result looks close to what is on their site, with figures, etc. One problem I spotted was with the bibliography/citations that are not correct (the template has \bibitem and I think LyX works best with a separate file, especially if you want to have [4-7] instead of [4, 5, 6, 7] citations). Converting the \bibitem in the template is not trivial (there is tex2bib, but it's perl and needs Linux or a Mac probably). You likely have your own database of references?

Dear LyX experts,
I would like to put the caption of a box above the content of that box, so that
the caption functions as a title for the box. I would be grateful for advice
how to do that.
I am currently using the Boxed Float module, but that automatically places the
caption below the box.
Best regards,
Dirk

I would try to set the width or height, instead of %scale.

Why is that needed?
