You need to tell the language(s) not only to babel, but also to other
packages.
> How can I fix this?
Put the language arguments into the documentclass line:
Leave the language package at [Default] (should be babel).
Ensure you have ticked: "Set languages globally" in
Tools>Settings>Languages.
Check the document with View>Source [x] Complete source
If there is a language missing, add it under
Document>Settings>Document class>Class options.

However, there is a workaround: you can tell the wrapfigure package how many lines the picture needs (in German LyX its: "benötigte Zeilen"). This overrides the auto-determined value. In your case, set this to 5, say. Also, read the wrapfigure documentation for more details and have a look at Ansicht>Quelle to see how LyX exports your image to LaTeX. Günter

Spellchecking not working in Arch
I guess I was overly optimistic yesterday, when I said that standard (stable) Lyx works fine in Arch Linux. I just discovered that spell checking does not work. More precisely: 1. I can see Hunspell as a viable selection in the "spellchecking" item of LyX's preferences. 2. I have hunspell installed, as well as 4 language dictionaries. 3. Continuous spellchecking does not work (i.e. no word is marked as misspelled, no matter how badly it's spelt) 4. If I try to select Spell checking from the Tools menu (or F7), I briefly see the spell checking window flashing by and nothing else happens 5. I get no messages in the console, even if I start lyx with the -dbg all flag In short, I am at a loss. Suggestions?

As a workaround, try making the text a little longer than your picture, before the new paragraph starts. A blank line or two with ctrl+enter? Or make the picture a bit wider so that the text breaks over more lines? Text flowing around objects is not something you can trust to work automatically in latex, and therefore not in LyX either.

The specification <+> in multiinclude says to show each part only on one
overlay. If there are three parts to the diagram, change that to <+,4-> which
will show each part in isolation on one of the first three overlays, then all

Internal Language for Page References
I have a language problem in my thesis. I'm writing in German, and my
Lyx is set in German.
I use the following language settings:
language: Deutsch (German)
language package: user defined: \usepackage[english,german,ngerman]{babel}
(I have a lot of English references, so I need to include both English
and German in babel.)
My chapters, sections, toc etc. are all nicely in German. But for some
reason, pagecites aren't.
As you can see on page 2 of the attached example document, when I use
refereces to things on different pages and want to add the page, Lyx
produces the English "on the preceding page" message instead of a
German expression. (It does the same thing if the mark is more pages
away. Then it says "on page ..." instead of "auf Seite...".
How can I fix this?
Is there a different language setting that I need to appoint for
references or something?
Also, if somebody could tell me how to fix that broken horizontal bar
in the table, I'd be really greatful.
Any help really appreciated!
