Minipages? Sure: Insert->Box (a frameless Box is a minipage).
However, as Richard said, LaTeX isn't designed for grid layout. It's
not a DTP application.
Box isn't very descriptive. I'd never have guessed this. Would there
by objections to making it Minipage? or Text Box? or ???
I Agree with this, and as Minipage is a LaTeXism and that is what you
are doing with this, then using the same name would make it easier for
lyx users to locate help about them in LaTeX documentation.
The catch is that Insert -> Box gives you a box that you can toggle
between minipage and parbox. If you call it Insert -> Minipage, would
someone know to look there for a parbox?
I have no objection to Insert->Text box.
BTW this is my first reply to an email from inside a digest... it looks
ok from here, i.e., title ok and only the content I wanted to reply to,
but please cut me some slack if Thunderbird quietly makes a mess. :}
Would Thunderbird do something rude like that? ;-)
FWIW, I use T-bird, but reply to posts in GMANE's news feed rather than
the digest.
