Hello I just discovered Lyx and use it since twodays (really nice!) so excuse me if my question is dummy, but I did not find any answer in the manuals of forums. Is there a Gui acess to \nocite? From the menu I have only access to \cite... should I make it through tex code insertion? And

I had this problem before, then I found a way to control Figure float. You can control the float by "right click" inside the figure float and uncheck "use default placement", select either one "top of page", "bottom of page", "here if possible" or "here definitely". It behaves similarly in Table
