a parbox, if that is forbidden by LaTeX.
Because it is not forbidden ;-) You can do this, the footnote will only not be shown. But there
might be LaTeX packages that changes the code so this it will be shown specially in the output. As
long as LaTeX don't give an error or warning LyX must therefore allow such things.
Do you think that the various LyX manuals can ever be "linked
together" or connected somehow with a unified table of contents?
Not as a single LyX/PDF file, because this would be unmaintainable. But I plan to provide a HTML
file build out of the manuals. A LyX user is currently developing a new LyX2HTML converter which
seems to be able to do this.
Currently there are 4 basic manuals:
- The UserGuide that at least gives an overview about ALL features and that often links to the
specific manuals.
-The EmbeddedObjects manual that explains Tables, floats, graphics, boxes, external material, and
program listings in detail
- The Math manual
- The Customization manual
The last two are self explanatory. The Intro manual now also lists them and explains shortly what
they are about. (I just updated this section for the next release.)
