It is not clear to me how it is done.
I see on the first tab of the float setting (graphics) the setting for the scale, width or height, and on the second tab (clipping) facilities for cropping and positioning the graphics. How do you deal with the caption width? I know I can do that with the caption package and ERT, but are these facilities in the settings for the float? Is that what I put in the Latex Options on the third tab?

I noticed that it did leave less of a white area around the picture, but it was still not what I wanted, which is the complete control provided by Latex's independent specification of width for the caption and the graphics.

I don't understand what you miss, I can control everything: the image width, the float width, the caption size, caption width, caption format, image bounding box (I can say I only want to have a certain part of the image in the output). What do you miss?

By the way, what is supposed to go into the "Latex options" on the third tab of the figure settings?

See the EmebeddedObjects manual chapter 1.

When I specify the width in there (say: width=2in), Lyx follows the instructions, which seem to overlap with the scale instructions on the first tab.

This setting is the appearance within LyX only, therefore its name is "show in LyX" and then "Scale on screen".
