That reminds me, I've been messing with float-figures in LyX but don't seem to be able to put them in the proper place. I've used the '!ht" options for floats but in any case, when lyx doesn't have enough space left in a page it will stuff more text into it and the figure on the next page. What is weird is that I've had 2 floats in a document. On the page I've inserted them there wasn't enough space, but LyX didn't put it on the next page either!. In fact, it placed the two figures 2 pages afterwards, in a diff section. Any tips on float placement I should know ?
Another thing is, is it possible to do double-column documents (such as in many academic papers) ?? I'm assuming it can, but I haven't found anything on this in the user guide.
