To insert a wide figure in LyX  1.3.0, use

don't use multicol. You can do 2 possible way, i.e:

insert a widefigure,
Insert-Float-Figure

in the float window, klick right mouse then click the box of Spalten
ueberspannen (left below), I don't know in english UI (maybe wide
overcolumn or something like that).

the float figure will be accross the column...

the second possibility is using sttools packages... (the best way as I

\begin{strip}

yes, you are right. There is an error if you used float figure. The
package can not combine with float because it will break the 2 column mode
into one-column exactly after the command \begin{strip}, which mean the
picture should be exactly in this location. The float can not be used in
such situation (IMHO). Use non-float figure, instead.

Otherwise, try to use widefigure-float, but sometime it is not better than
this package.
