I'm creating tables of two columns where the first column is just a
label, and the right column contains a paragraph or so of text.  I set
the maximum width from the table layout dialog box, and it prints fine,
but it is nearly impossible to edit.

On the screen the body of text is displayed as a single horizontal line
(ie, no word wrap) for each entry, and the displayed table is _very_
wide.  There is no horizontal scroll bar, so the only way I seem to be
able to work around it is to make the window as wide as I can, drag it
most of the way off the screen, then widen it again, etc. until the
part I want to edit is finally on the screen.

Is there a way to get it to use word wrap when editing inside tables on
the screen?  Either the fixed width that I specified for the table, or
something convenient for the window size would be nice.  If not, I'd
like to make a feature request :)

Right now, I end up loading the .lyx file into vi or something like
that to do editing of the table text, and that's really not a great way
to do it.  Am I missing something simple here?  Is there another
workaround?

Thanks!
