John. Thanks for you answer, but I think you didn't consider my questions.
I'm translating the documentation, so my questions are not about "how to use
some feature".
1. The translated files are in directories of different level from the
original english files. So, should the relative paths be relative to the new
location (/doc/pt/), the original location (/doc/), or...?
2. AFAIK, LyX only supports red shaded boxes without ERT. So using shaded
boxes are not a good alternative.
3. You're wrong. They aren't in-line figures. Click on them and try to
change something (eg. its size). You'll note the difference.
Cheers,
