I've been a bit inprecise:

Here "at depth 0" ist missing, meaning I start writing without any red bars at
the left.

... and indent them (S-M-Right) to the depth where they should go to. And as I
like examples:
<example>
A nice paragraph in std layout at depth 0
Another nice paragraph in std layout at depth 0
</example>
becomes
<example'>
1. A nice Paragraph now in enumeration layout at depth 0
A nice paragraph in lyxcode layout at depth 0
</example'>
becomes
<example''>
1. A nice Paragraph in enumeration layout at depth 0
| A nice paragraph in lyxcode layout now at depth 1
</example''>

Hopefully it's a bit clearer now. To me the main advantage of my approach is that
during the input of the text one hasn't to care about keeping the right depth.

Yes you're right. But that has nothing to do with the above :)

I must admit I didn't follow the instructions but simply did as I do always

You're right :) Maybe I find the time to create a new screenshot.
