  Why not, Marcelo? I use two frameless boxes (each 45% of the text width)
with a horizontal fill between them to place two figures side-by-side in the
same float. It works well.

  I have not yet figured out how to put a caption under each one, so I write
a single caption for both underneath them.

Hello Wolfgang,

it works when you change the float style, see attached. The problem is that you set the float to 
span multiple text columns and it seems that sidecap does then either not known the margins or 
thinks that there might not enough space to place the caption besides the image.

It works, but there's too much space from the bottom edge of the table to the

caption is tight to the bottom of the table


See sec. 4.2 4Footnotes of the EmbeddedObjects manual that you find in LyX's 
Help menu.

By the way, note tat the common rule is to have table captions above the table while figure captions 
are below (look in any printed book or see the EmbeddedObjects manual that you find in LyX's Help menu).

Perhaps it showed up as a different thread for you, but he responded
