How to change the default setting of inserting a graph?

2011-08-14 Thread Zhaorong Wang
Dear lyx users,
I am using lyx 2.0 on windows 7. I just keep lyx as simple editor of
writing progress report every week. Often I need to insert figures,
but the figures usually have different original size. Lyx seems to
insert graphs using their original size as default. But sometimes big
figure even exceeds the right boundary of the page. Then I need to
make it smaller manually through the graph dialog box. So I want to
change the default to be like as wide as the text width. How can I do
in the preamble? I am simply using the document class article.
Thanks for any help!

Our first endeavors are purely instinctive prompting of an
imagination vivid and undisciplined. As we grow older reason asserts
itself and we become more and more systematic and designing. But those
early impulses, though not immediately productive, are of the greatest
moment and may shape our very destinies.
