Hello everyone,

I have a question regarding the caption2 package and
cross-references in LyX (my version 1.1.5fix2). I would like
to customise the appearance of the captions in my thesis, so
I have downloaded and installed the caption2 tex package. In
the LyX preamble I have the following:

\usepackage{caption2}

In my document I need both long and short caption titles
(for the LoF and underneath the actual figure), so I have to
remove the default LyX caption. 

How do I go about making the width of the caption a bit
smaller, to make the word "Figure", or "Table" to appear in
bold? (generally how to reformat the caption style) This is
what I have so far in my LyX preamble...

\def\mycaption#1#2{
\captionstyle{hang}
\caption[#1]{#2}}

Also, where should one put the LyX labels (those little grey
boxes) when using floats, as they appear to have been
referencing section numbers and pages rather than figure or
table float numbers & pages.

Thanks,
Ben
